Char-Kway-Teowl-Johor-Bahru

This sunny morning while walking pass Multi Mart kopitiam near KSL Mall, we caught a waft of aroma which smelled of sizzling garlic bits browning in a hot wok, drifting from the coffee shop over onto nearby streets.

Asam Pedas Tambak in Batu Pahat Johor +6019 782 5022

Asam-Pedas-Tambak-Batu-Pahat-Johor

Yesterday, while at Pacific Mall in Batu Pahat, we bumped into Johor Kaki reader, Dr Kevin Khoo. Needless to say, I won't pass up a golden opportunity to ask a home town boy about the best eats in Batu Pahat. Hearing that we were on the hunt for great asam pedas, Kevin suggested that we check out the row of asam pedas stalls at Jalan Hamidon, off Jalan Rahmat near the Main Post Office.

Banana Cakes at Kampung Resipi, S'mart Pandan Johor Bahru JB ⭐⭐⭐✱✱

Banana- Cakes-Kampung-Resipi-S'mart-Pandan-Johor-Bahru-JB

You know, when people talk about banana cakes in Johor Bahru, the first thing that come to everyone's mind is Hiap Joo Bakery. Of course, Hiap Joo's banana cakes baked with it's 97 year old wood fired oven have no equal in JB. Nevertheless, my friend John recently introduced me to another delicious banana cake - by Kampung Resipi at S'mart Pandan.

No Name Economy Rice & Zhi Char at Bunga Ros, Masai JB ⭐⭐⭐✱✱

Economy-Rice-Zhi-Char-Bunga-Ros-Masai-JB

Seeing Henry's regular postings from his favourite lunch haunt near the bus terminal at Masai in JB, we couldn't resist checking it out.

看到 Henry 每天 post 爱吃的卤肉面, 看了忍不住, 我们也来了. 卤肉面真的很多卤肉又很香, 很甜, 真的很好吃. 我们还有吃老板的砂煲面, 也是很不错. 砂煲面里有烧肉还有芋头不错. 最喜欢的是老板的怡保河粉. 果条炒得有锅气. 粿条的汁也很够味. 如果你在 Masai 一带, 这无招牌小档口是一个好的午餐和晚餐的去处. Jalan Bunga Ros. Masai 巴士车站对面.

A1-Curry-Chicken-Yee-Chia-Ren

Went to Taman Ungku Tun Aminah this evening and stumbled upon a newly opened curry chicken noodle stall at Restoran Yee Chia Ren 一家人餐室.

安格卖咖喱鸡面. A1咖喱面. 小小档口在皇后花园的一家人咖啡馆. 鸡肉嫩嫩的又甜. 咖喱有汤底. 椰浆香甜不过不会太浓. 好香的香料不过不会太辣. 一碗RM5. 如果下午有在皇后一带,不妨试试. 下午3点到晚上12点. 星期三休息. Jalan Temenggong 11.

Today, we visited the Kafe Rasa Ria in Rengit. Looking through their extensive menu of Western style dishes and local favourites, we opted for their chicken chops. We are chicken chop lovers 😀

No Michelin Star Tai Wah Pork Noodles at Hong Lim FC 大华肉脞面 ⭐⭐⭐

Tai-Wah-Pork-Noodles-Hong-Lim-大华肉脞面

This is the other 大华 bak chor mee, without the Michelin Star and sans the insane queue. Otherwise, in most other aspects, this Hong Lim Tai Wah and the other Tai Hwa at Crawford Lane are almost identical. Both have their die-hard fans.

SUMO-Big-Prawn-Noodle-Singapore

It's all brudder Carelairfare's fault lah - post those food porn of SUMO Big Prawn Noodle. So, today I buay tahan (cannot resist) have to make an unplanned trip on a rainy morning to Ang Mo Kio Blk 628 food centre to satisfy my craving.

Yong Xiang Xing Dou Fu Yong Tau Foo Singapore People's Park 驰名永祥興豆腐 ⭐⭐⭐✱✱

Yong-Xiang-Xing-Dou-Fu-Yong-Tau-Foo

I have a former colleague who is a big fan of Yong Xiang Xing Dou Fu. Every time we were at People's Park food centre, he would volunteer to queue and buy us yong tau foo for lunch. We joked that he must be a shareholder of Yong Xiang Xing Dou Fu 😝

SUMO Big Prawn Noodle Ang Mo Kio Blk 628 Market & Food Centre ⭐⭐⭐✱✱

SUMO-Big-Prawn-Ang-Mo-Kio-Blk-628

When SUMO Big Prawn's noodles starring their lobsters first appeared on my Facebook feed, I didn't really pay much attention. I am not a big fan of gentrification of our street food culture. But, when I saw that they also have "normal" prawn mee, I went down to Ang Mo Kio Blk 628 food centre to give SUMO Big Prawn a try.
