Sarawak Laksa in Kuching: 126 Laksa on Jalan Chan Chin Ann
-
If your Kuching food list has room for one laksa stop, 126 Laksa is a practical address to pin: a local-facing shop on Jalan Chan Chin Ann with a menu that lets you choose how adventurous the bowl becomes.

For a first visit, I would start with the regular Sarawak Laksa, then add one topping rather than turning the first bowl into a full tasting menu. The shop is also known for choices such as chicken feet, Pattaya-style egg, large prawns, quail egg, oyster, cockles, squid and abalone. The useful local phrase is simply laksa Sarawak; sambal is part of the expected conversation, so ask how much heat you want.
This is a non-halal recommendation because the menu includes pork-related options; visitors who require halal food should confirm directly before ordering.
Timing, budget and route
The Jalan Chan Chin Ann branch is listed for breakfast from 7:00am to 1:00pm. I would go in the morning and keep a little flexibility: laksa toppings and prices can change, and the shop may sell out or adjust hours. Budget around a casual kopitiam meal, with the final amount depending on the topping; check the live menu before leaving.
The address is Ground Floor, Lot 180, Section 49, Jalan Chan Chin Ann, 93100 Kuching. It fits naturally after a walk around the old town and Padungan side of the city; allow extra time for roadside parking and a busy breakfast period.

Would you choose the classic bowl, Pattaya, or a prawn topping?
