Laksa Hut Toowong
Myself and my friends who come along with me love this place. Part of its charm is the atmosphere, which some would say is truly lacking,but is authentic to many quick asian restaurants you visit overseas - with its laminated table tops, plastic chairs, flourescent lighting, a box of tissues on the table for napkins. Friendly owners, cheerful wait persons,quickly produced food, tasty and yummy according to price. For those wanting an expensive experience, this is not for you. Good honest food, in and out fast. When they move to Indooroopilly later this year, will be following.

Laksa Hut
Having been born and raised in Malaysia, I have to say that it is exceedingly difficult to find an all-around decent and most importantly authentic Malaysian eatery. Inspite of the fact that another Malaysian friend once warned me not to go there, one night I decided to try out Laksa Hut for myself with a Taiwanese friend anyway, since I've heard so much about it (and one it's one of this friend's favourite eateries). Big mistake.
We ordered kangkung belacan (water convolvulus/spinach), deep fried pork chop with rice and "Kapitan Chicken", billed as the "chef's special". Let me explain that Kapitan Chicken (it's a curried dish) is arguably one of Nyonya cuisine's representative dishes, a regional cooking style (and perhaps one of the world's first fusion cuisines) that reflects the cross-cultural fusion between Malay and Chinese cultures in Malaysia and Singapore. So imagine my surprise when "Kapitan chicken" arrived, and it looked and tasted exactly like a typical Thai Green Curry. That's right, the usual sweet and cloying green curry found in most typical Westernised-Thai takeaways. The "kangkung belacan" lacked any hint of the infamous belacan, a prawn paste that is a staple in Malaysian and Singaporean cooking, but instead fried in a tepid mixture of Chinese bean paste and mild chilies.
The food as a whole was generally mediocre but edible, although I was very disappointed at the lack of authenticity, and didn't even finish half of the green curry.
