Lalasha is a Southeast Asian restaurant in Tianzifang, serving primarily Singaporean and Malaysian dishes.
It took over the space formerly housing SUR Eatery and did little to change the interiors handed down by its predecessor. The chic café boasts a beautiful terrace with outdoor seating in addition to two sections of dining rooms. It certainly has that mamak vibe going.


Food is mostly Singaporean and Malaysian with a couple curveballs like laksa pizza on offer. Overall, the food is quite enjoyable. The nasi lemak evokes nostalgia and the ginormous seafood laksa is tasty and laden with fresh seafood. The beef rendang while delicious was unfortunately chewy, hopefully something they can improve on since the flavor was on point.






Lalasha also does Singapore-style chili crab.
It has potential. Not somewhere I would go out of the way to visit, but a good choice for those in the neighborhood. Good to people watch or be watched by people. It’s also dog-friendly.
As for Tianzifang, it’s pretty dead. Expect weekday lunches to be quiet, weekends to be a bit more busy. The shops are open, and the tourist destination still has quite the variety of souvenirs and knick-knacks.
