Boss Ah Bee.<br />新山華美肉骨茶 Wah Bee Bak Kut Teh aka Restaurant Hwa Mei<br />146, Jalan Lumba Kuda, 80300 Johor Bahru, Johor, Tel: +6012-7013818 <br />Operating hour: 10-2pm. Off days : Usually Mondays <br />GPS Co-ordinates: N1 27.656' E103 46.039 (where my car was parked at the Car Park)<br />I have been eating there since Jan 1981 with my ex-colleagues (that's 30 years already) and I was told Ah Bee have been operating BKT business for over 40 years now, initially managed by the boss and his wife at thos same coffee shop. I spoke with the Boss Ah Bee today and I was told the bad news when I did not see his wife there but a younger man and younger lady taking orders and serving customers. Ah Bee is now doing all the cooking of BKT using charcoal (as before) at the rear end of the shop under a tree. He said that about 1 year ago, his wife died of cancer and she had struggled with it for the last eight years while the last 3 years was a relapse. Now, he got his nephew Johnny and his wife helping out at the front end while he still faithfully cook his BKT the good old ways since 40 years ago. He told me that his 32-yr old son only helps out in the shop as and when he feels like it. A sad thing but there's nothing he could do to convince his son to help out or take over his business.BobcatSysOp YKChanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14925259937039205860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564826827484078485.post-41364914180365237422016-05-23T01:41:14.156+08:002016-05-23T01:41:14.156+08:00this is one of the most potent BKT i've tried ...this is one of the most potent BKT i've tried in jb. its very intense, so if you're used to the SG type or the clearer more drinkable types, may assume its msg.

I still prefer Singapore's version of bak kut teh. lacedwithlacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03115610849878889647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564826827484078485.post-48176616728475958192013-07-30T21:45:42.606+08:002013-07-30T21:45:42.606+08:00normal only la. like kueh chap in sgnormal only la. like kueh chap in sgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
