Most visitors to Darwin are shock - and delighted - at the quality of Asian food, especially laksa. Some say that the city serves the best laksa this side of Asia; others say that the fresh, top-class ingredients make it the best anywhere in the world.
Praise is heaped on our laksa whether it is served in a classy restaurant or from a market stall – the best market laksa stalls attract long queues of patient, salivating customers.
One laksa maestro, Guo Yang Yei, who is known as Mary, says the secret to her success is simple: fresh ingredients. The key ingredients in most Darwin laksas are chicken and seafood. But one adventurous cook has dabbled with crocodile. And it’s even possible to get laksa ice cream. Passions about types of laksa run hot.
