Toa Payoh 94 Laksa, located at Toa Payoh Block 94, has gained attention for its larger-than-average cockles in their laksa dish. The stall witnessed a steady flow of customers during a weekday visit around 11 am, indicating its growing popularity.
- Laksa: The stall offers laksa in two portion sizes priced at $4.80 and $5.80. The flavorful gravy is made from a prawn and lala stock combined with a special spice blend obtained from a trusted supplier.
- Ingredients: The $4.80 bowl includes thick bee hoon, tau pok, fish cake, prawns, half a hard-boiled egg, and crispy bean sprouts. What sets this laksa apart are the generous toppings of ground hae bee and notably large blood cockles. These cockles are much bigger than the usual ones found in hawker laksa, with each being about the size of a teaspoon head. They are served raw, but customers can request for them to be blanched if they prefer them less bloody.
- Taste: The gravy is mildly spicy and not overly creamy, offering a pleasant umami flavor from the hae bee. The dish can be further enhanced with their sambal chili. The portion size is ideal for one person.
