SANG Seafood • HALAL Johor Chinese Restaurant • Memories of Old Danga Bay • Menu & Review📍Damansara Aliff 尚海鲜 清真 ☏ +6019 737 7556
Alice invited me to lunch with a group of friends at SANG Seafood, a Halal certified Chinese seafood restaurant at Taman Damansara Aliff in Johor Bahru.
I rarely get to try Chinese Halal restaurants because there weren't that many in Johor, or even Malaysia.
The last one I went to was Mohd Chan in Ipoh. So I jumped at the opportunity to visit SANG Seafood at Damansara Aliff (which is at Singapore's doorstep).
