When we visited Etta for Michael's birthday this year, owner Hannah excitedly shared that they'd be offering $30 laksa bowls very soon, including a veg*n option. We kept a keen eye on their social media and booked in a table for 4 as soon as we could.
Unsurprisingly, the standard advertised version of the laksa wasn't vegetarian at all but we were able to confirm vegetarian and vegan versions with a follow-up message. Instead of crispy prawn lok-lok, we were served skewers of mushroom. Us two vegetarians received the standard bowl of coconut curry laksa with rice and egg noodles, golden tofu, cucumber and bean sprouts, while our vegan companions skipped out on the egg noodles and received regular (not golden) tofu. It was complex, tasty and a fun little diversion on a weeknight - not the best of Etta's eating, but the best of their service (which never wavers).
