Teluk Kechai has many laksa stalls, but among them, Zakaria Laksa Teluk Kechai is one of the top-rated ones. According to the owner, Zakaria, they use either mackerel scad or sardine to make the broth so that it's not too thick and has a well-balanced flavour. Hard-boiled 🥚eggs are not served with the laksa, but you can grab one from the table, break the shell, remove it, and add it to your laksa.

Their laksa is said to be “lemak” (rich & creamy) with a hint of sweetness from the fresh mackerel used, and it's not too spicy. One special thing about this restaurant is that their laksa is served with pulut udang (shrimp glutinous rice) kuih spera (looks like curry puff with coconut sambal filling).

It's rare to come across Johor Laksa at local eateries or restaurants, as this traditional dish calls for Dorab wolf-herring and other unique spices, resulting in a relatively high production cost. Moreover, its low profit margin makes it difficult to justify charging a premium price. That's why discovering Pondok Santapan Larkin's Johor laksa is truly a gem.

Johor laksa is a unique dish that features spaghetti noodles (Yes! Johor laksa uses spaghetti noodles) instead of traditional rice noodles, which pairs perfectly with the rich, flavorful gravy. At this eatery, they're not afraid to be generous with the ingredients, ensuring a satisfying and filling plate of Johor laksa.
