Congratulations to Saanvi, our City of Palmerston Regional Award winner at the Young Territory Author Awards! 🎉

Saanvi has taken home this award for the second year in a row! What an amazing achievement.

Could next year see Saanvi make it three years running? She’ll be looking to match Sean Guy Author, who still holds the record with three consecutive wins!

We’ll be cheering you on, Saanvi! 📚👏

Congratulations to Kopi Stop on winning the People’s Choice Award! 🎉 Well deserved! Be sure to stop by on your next Library visit and try their award-winning laksa! 🍜

WHAT AN OCTOBER !! 🍜🧡
Darwin International Laksa Festival 2026, and tonight we took home TWO more bowls! 🏆🏆

🏆 People’s Choice Best Laksa 🍜 (4th consecutive year!)
🏆 People’s Choice Best Laksa Inspired-By (3rd consecutive year!)

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who voted for us and continues to support us! ❤️

People’s Choice means a lot to us as knowing that so many of you have tried our laksa, enjoyed it and taken the time to vote for us makes it extra special. It tells us that what we do is appreciated, and that means the world to us.

To our amazing & crazy team, this is yours too! Behind every bowl and bake is a lot of hard work, preparation, long hours and plenty of love.

To our friends and families, thank you for always being there, supporting us, being guinea pigs and putting up with our crazy laksa festival season! 😂❤️

Congratulations to this year’s Golden Bowl winner and other finalists! There’s so much talent and passion in Darwin’s food scene, and it’s always great to be part of this festival alongside so many amazing people.

And of course, a big thank you to the organisers and everyone behind the festival for bringing the community together once again.

Four consecutive years for Best Laksa and three consecutive years for Laksa Inspired-By. We really couldn’t have asked for a better way to wrap up October!

Darwin, thank you. We don’t take any of this for granted.
❤️
Jules & Richard
