Laksa House on Hutt Street

I love my lunchtime soups.  Pho or Laksa are my two favourites at the moment, summer is coming up and as I am trying to be (vaguely) good with what I eat these are good alternatives when going out!

I love Hutt Street with new restaurants and different places to explore and as I was in the area and with a craving for laksa I tried the aptly named Laksa House!  I had visited Laksa House earlier this year but as it was a rushed meal with a friend and I was not taking notice of what was around me I have waited until today to post.

Well.   I must say this was an unfortunate day for me to go and then write a review.  The waiters were really rude, there was only three tables seated when I was in the restaurant and none of the wait staff were interested in interacting with the customers.  To be honest I was actually served before a table that had arrived before me. As someone who works in hospitality that was poor form.


The behaviour of the wait staff made me feel uncomfortable to the point of thinking about leaving as the décor is not that comforting either.  One of those restaurants when the chairs scrape along the ground no matter how you try and pick them up!

I think the laksa contains MSG although the owners can correct me if I am wrong.  The laksa also has no vegetables apart from a little bit of cucumber and bok choy.   The prices are reasonable which is why I came here for lunch however, I was charged extra when I asked to have less which is ridiculous and was only notified of the increased cost when I was at the till to pay the bill.

If dining here make it a quick lunch, I will not be coming back, but if your hungry and in the area; know what you want and be strong when ordering, and I would recommend that they ask to state the price before you order.
