Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Wei Yi Laksa & Prawn Noodle at Tanglin Halt Market is known for its Peranakan-style laksa, often drawing significant queues.

We note that the broth is consistently described as coconut-rich with a mild spice, and comes generously topped with ingredients like prawns, shredded chicken, and tofu puffs.

The $5-6 price point for a bowl is frequently highlighted as good value, especially given the portion size and ingredient mix.

However, the long wait times, often stretching to 20-40 minutes, are a recurring point of contention, with some reviewers questioning if the taste justifies the queue.

While many find the laksa comforting and satisfying, it's generally not considered revolutionary enough to dethrone other top contenders.

We'd recommend managing expectations regarding the 'wow' factor, and visiting mid-morning on weekdays to avoid the longest queues.

It's a reliable option if you're in the area, but perhaps not worth a dedicated long-distance trip solely for the laksa.

What customers say

Wei Yi Laksa & Prawn Noodle at Tanglin Halt Market is known for its rich, coconut-based laksa with options for prawns, chicken, and cockles, drawing consistent long queues often exceeding 20-40 minutes.

While many find the laksa delicious and worth the wait, praising its generous ingredients and balanced flavor, some consider it merely average or good but not exceptional enough to justify the extensive wait times.

There are also occasional issues with order accuracy, such as incorrect ingredients in takeaway orders.

I think the taste is nice but is it worth the ~40mins wait? I don’t think so. Overall good bowl of laksa that isn’t too thick / “gao”. Packed with ingredients that’s worth for $5. Not sure what’s the…

This decades-old hawker stall in Tanglin Halt Market draws snaking queues for its laksa, a recipe rumored to hail from the owner’s Peranakan roots. The broth is coconut-rich with a mild spice kick, ge…
