    The noodles in assam laksa is called lai fun. The sourness mainly comes from the tamarind and even sour/unripe pineapples. Lemongrass is more give it a citrus fragrance/flavour not much of sourness. Lemongrass is a common ingredient in most of the curries and chili paste. That brown sugar is called gula melaka. It's actually different from palm sugar if you are to ask for it and buy it from shops. I miss Penang food! The popular stalls were soooo crowded last time. DId you try the chee cheong fun? In Penang,theirs are served with prawn paste. Also Penang rojak. Love Penang Char Kway Tiao, it is the best version.

    Glad they've made it in Penang. 1st time I see Coconut Tart topped with Walnut Biscuit is a must try. Oyster pancake/omelette also one of Taiwanese famous street foods. Assam Laksa Steph had didn't had coconut milk in the broth. They finally got to my favorites Cendol that green jelly actually called pandan noodles and is refreshing dessert, and Char Kuey Teow of course and they also added green chive in there as well.

      Mungbean sprouts n chinese chives are a must in char kuey tiow. I spell it 'tiow' instead of 'teow' as written locally for foreigners to pronounce it easily. Like i write for Americans 'wonton' instead of local 'wantan' to facilitate their pronouncing!
