I was in the Sri Gombak area around noon today so I swung by Chong Hwa Curry Laksa restaurant for a bowl of curry laksa - something I just needed to do after a very disappointing bowl of curry laksa in Neighborhood food court Menjalara a couple of days ago.
Nice thick gravy with half cooked "siham" (cockles). Yum. The taufu pok (bean curd puff) were nice and tender.
Really not bad. But I still prefer the Penang style curry mee such as this one or this one.
I opted for hor-fun as I dislike the typical yellow noodle with strong lye water taste.
Only siham (cockles) and tau fu pok besides the noodles. No chicken. RM3.80 for small.
Besides curry laksa, this shop sells nasi lemak, pan mee and pork porridge too. I will try the nasi lemak next.
Nice and clean place.
I added a dollop of chili paste for extra kick!
Bottoms up! :D
RM5.10 including a cup of black coffee (kopi-o). RM3.80 for the noodle and RM1.30 for the kopi-o.
Edit: RM4.00 now (Nov 14, 2013)

Finally had a chance to try the nasi lemak there as well.
Nasi Lemak. I actually asked for Nasi Lemak ++ which included ham as well. But the staff got my order wrong. This one was RM6.00
It was okay but not great. The rice, while fragrant, wasn't fluffy. I even bit into tough and dry part at the bottom. The curry wasn't as good as that from my fave stall either.
I much prefer this cheaper (RM4.50) yet way better nasi lemak here.
