May's Laksa House - North Sydney

This place always has a massive queue at lunchtime. It's famous for its Laksa but was way too hot for that today so went with the Nasi Lemak , another Malaysian staple.<br/ It was very tasty. All the flavours and contrasts where there, and was delivered in real street food style. However the side broth (usually a great accompaniment), was way too salty and sweet, so became overpowering.<br/ Overall though quite good, I'll be back to try the laksa. Service was brisk and efficient considering the small kitchen and high demand.<br/

Understand that laksa isn't 100% authentic, but it is the best laksa I've ever had. I don't quite like the traditional laksa as it's too sweet for my taste. I used to eat there once a week when I was working in North Sydney. Now I'm located in Sydney CBD and have not found a good laksa place yet.

This was my first time trying out a Laksa. I ordered the beef Laksa and it was so delicious and so much for what I paid for. Great taste and great value for money. Strongly recommend it.

We Food Hunters are always on the lookout for great laksa, so May's being the North Sydney institution it is was a must visit. Despite the fast and furious service and turnover, there was still a reassuringly long line waiting at this food court outlet when we arrived for lunch time peak hour. We managed to get a table and almost instantly the laksas were ready chicken and prawns. The vegetable ingredients were fresh, and though the chicken and prawns were nothing to write home about either in quality or quantity, it was the soup that was rightfully meant to be the star of the show. There was a little more coconut milk in it than I expected, but that said the balance of flavours was handled so well that I almost didn't mind.

Great laksa! Busy at lunch time so get there early or be prepared to wait. Have heard other dishes are really nice too so will have to come back to try.
