The unique point about King's Laksa Steamboat, as their brand name suggests, is the option to have laksa gravy as a steamboat base. But besides this novelty, customers keep coming back to King's Laksa Steamboat for the clean and comfortable air-conditioned environment, and the above average range and quality of food.Ambience at King's Laksa Steamboat is probably among the best when compared with other steamboat places. The interior is well lit and spacious, with comfortably large tables to place
Ambience at King's Laksa Steamboat is probably among the best when compared with other steamboat places. The interior is well lit and spacious, with comfortably large tables to place food. Overall cleanliness is very good. Despite the interior being fully air-conditioned, the ventilation here is good enough that you won't leave with a strong smell of food / cooking sticking to your clothes. Excellent!
Service at King's Laksa Steamboat is fast, but lacking in style. Staff are quite observant and will attend quickly to orders / requests, though they speak rather loudly. Also, not all staff are able to converse in English. But overall, they are efficient, and rather thoughtful as well, supplying little trolley carts to put food on if the table is full.
The range of food available at King's Laksa Steamboat is good, with over 30 items, but not extensive. However, it is good value for money.
The selection of cooked food is rather limited, such as fried dumplings, chicken wings, or chicken nuggets. However, their cooked food tends towards the greasy side, and generally isn't that good. I recommend to skip most of them, except for the pretty decent chicken wings.
The standard raw food for steamboat is available here, including lettuce, kai lan, golden mushrooms, shitake mushrooms, beancurd, fishballs, sotong balls, meatballs, sliced lean pork, chicken, beef and lamb. Most of their meat items are rather lean, and slightly healthy because there isn't much fat.
A rather uncommon selection of items is their stuffed Yong Tau Foo, which includes stuffed tau pok, mushrooms and chili. I find their technique for stuffing rather lacking, as the stuffing tends to fall out during cooking, making fishing for it in the soup very difficult. But the taste is decent.
