Jimmy's Recipe

Sometimes on a hot humid day, you just don't want something heavy and creamy. But what do you do when you still want a big bowl of noodle soup? For me, I head to Jimmy's for their Assam Laksa. There's not many other places offering this around the city, with Malay Chinese being one of them. But Jimmy's generally have much more seating during lunch time.

Assam Laksa

Assam Laksa is nothing like your standard laksa. There's no coconut cream and it has a fairly strong fish taste as it uses a fish broth. Its also very light, sour and spicy. Kinda like a tom yum goong but not. The Jimmy's version contained what appeared to be canned tomato sardine (Very different to what I remember they used to serve, which was proper fish fillets) with slice onions, cucumber and pineapple. This dish may be a bit fishy for some people because of the fish they use. I'm hoping its a seasonal thing and eventually they'll have the proper fish fillets back again. Nonetheless, it was exactly what I wanted on a hot muggy day.
