5. Restoran Sun Yin Loong
If you adore Ipoh Curry Laksa, you should definitely drop by this eatery for a bowl. Their curry laksa is served with thick cuts of crispy roast pork (which you can opt against), tau fu pok and cockles, which differs from the regular Penang curry mee. That being said, we agree that both versions are equally amazing and still scream happiness in a bowl (hehe). The roast pork may be slightly too salty for some, but if you enjoy a nice crispy texture to go with your soupy noodles, their curry laksa is sure to gain some brownie points from you.
