328 Katong Laksa at Queensway Shopping Centre

The legendary Katong laksa now at Queensway — rich, coconutty, and slurped without chopsticks.

328 Katong Laksa is one of Singapore's most famous laksa names, and its Queensway outlet brings the same signature bowl that made the brand a national icon. Known for its rich, coconut-based gravy that is fragrant with rempah spices and packed with prawns, fish cake, and bean sprouts, the laksa is served with short-cut noodles — the Katong style — meant to be eaten with a spoon alone, no chopsticks required.

It is a bowl that has earned its place in Singapore's food hall of fame. The menu also includes side dishes such as otah and fried spring rolls that complement the main event. The Queensway location makes this heritage bowl accessible to those in the Alexandra and Queenstown neighbourhoods.

Prices are moderate, and the portions are satisfying, whether you opt for the regular or the larger bowl. For laksa that lives up to its legend, 328 Katong Laksa at Queensway is the real deal — one spoonful and you will understand the hype.
