The Laksa League is entering its fourth and final week, and the competition is about to boil over! As the weather heats up in the Northern Territory, so does the battle for the top spot in the Laksa League. With only a few days left, we’re calling on all laksa lovers to support their favourite venues and cast their votes for the best laksa and laksa-inspired dishes. Word on the hawker streets is that the race is too close to call, so every vote counts! Make sure to get your vote in before the deadline at midnight this Thursday.
The leaderboard has been a whirlwind of activity. James S and Leanne continue their epic back-and-forth duel at the top, while Jleight has had a standout week, slurping up points and leaping into third place. @nt and Kendra round out the top five, each fighting hard to secure their spot. Down in Katherine, the action is just as intense, with Ktown_laksa overtaking Annika for the lead. Meanwhile, in Alice Springs, Golden Laksa Queen sits atop her thrown — but with four days remaining, will she hold onto it or be usurped by PrincessBob?
To add a little spice to the final stretch, the leaderboard has gone dark. Player rankings are now hidden and will remain a mystery until Festival Finale Day. It’s anyone’s game, and the suspense is building—who will emerge as the ultimate Laksa League champion?
Last week’s Mega Bowl challenge saw 68 savvy players find the hidden bowl, distributing a total of 204,000 points among them. Admittedly, our clue was on the easy side, so expect this week’s challenge to be a real head-scratcher!
It seems inspired by dishes have been trending, last week's top reviewed include:
- Chicken Laksa Sausages, Palmerston Quality Meats - 4.9
- MacCheese Laksa, Chok's Place - 4.8
- Laksa Chocolate Tacos, Ton's Bistro at Dinah - 4.6
