Went to Otak Shiduoli, it was closed on Thursday.



Yi Bao also closed but malas to take photo.

Last last , decided to walk into Oh Yeah Noodle House within the close proximity. Too hungry already to look for alternative.

The menus offered looked like Penang”s Street food. Tried the Prawn Noodle with pork ribs, priced at RM 14.90/ bowl.

Tasted above average , it was good but just cannot beat Johnny”s Prawn Mee @ Subang Bestari. Rated aroud 8/10.

Aduhai, coz I don”t know mah. Now I know it from you.

Thanks. Keeping it for next round.

Kamsiah 🙏🙏

It is called “eight treasures tea” a.k.a “ba bao cha” , one of the Chinese herbal tea variant. Coz morning already took the Johor”s laksa , need to cool down the body with the herbal tea. You can request for less sugar.

Now for some list that I think not worth the value.

Tepian Tebrau , night time for grilled fish @ ikan bakar. I was being told that the crowds was no where during their prime before the MCO.

When we reached there, there were a few promoters standing on the road trying to promote their stalls. Got to know the Tip Top stall is the best( unfortunately sold out) & stall no.30 is the second best.

Decided to go for the stall no.30 for the stingray grill. Picked 2 pieces of stingray cuts. The selling prive was RM 9.50/ 100g @ RM95/kg ( eating gold…😅). Since not me paying, hantam saja la.







The taste = 8.5/10. Above average & nice . The price , at RM 95/kg for pari, confirm this one is top rated tourist trap price.

Another addition to the list that I think not worth the value.

Seafood at Senimbong, Permas Jaya, JB. Last time this place was full of seafood restaurants, now only 3 operators remaining.















Food taste acceptable , freshness was below average. The price very obvious to slaugther tourists & Singaporean.

The only good thing on this location is the nice sea view facing Singapore. Average around RM 40-50/ pax.

Haven”t try to visit yet. Saving it for next trip. 😄

Thanks for the wantan mee outlet recommendation. So happened that we were talking about famous wantan mee that only operates at night time at JB since 20 years ago. Got any idea about this ?

On the second look at the photos from Google, the wantan resembles the Foo Chow's kampua, even the wantan looks more like foo chow "bien nyuk". This stall operated by a Foo Chow's descendant from Sarawak ?

Nasi lemak? which post you are referring to? Permas Jaya? I saw the seafood only, no nasi lemak la.

I just clarified the with the person who told me about the wantan mee with 20+ years history. According to the source, no, it is not the one. It is Woon Five Nine. My source told me he used to travel to JB when he was young. Will patron the that wantan mee at night.

This morning dropped by for breakfast at Mok Gao Beef @ Kulai. An adjacent town to JB around 20min drive away.

Tried their dry version of mix beef organ & tendon.

Taste : 8/10
Price : 8/10
Ambient : 6.5/10 ( they operates in new village houses).

Total cost around RM 18 for the dry & soup option.

Eight Toast @ Kulai

The food at this place was decent & the pricing also decent .

Order the Mee Rebus, start to like Johor Mee Rebus. So far the mee jawa Johor have yet to dissapoint me.

RM 7.80/ plate for the Mee Rebus.
RM 3.60 for the 2 pieces half boiled eggs
RM 3.80 for the kopi peng
RM 5.90 for the mayo egg toast

It is just a neighboring town not that far bro. The other day, I went to Pontian to look for pineapple. Surprising to know now Pontian is current pineapple town vs the old Pekan Nenas town in the geography & history book long time ago.

Kedai Makan Jadi Baru Botak (JB Botak Asam Fish)






(This image was taken from Google)

This traditional shop operated by the Chinese owner but all races are coming to dine in. Can see the photo of TMJ when he was young & grown up taken with the owner of the restaurant being displayed on the wall with a few other famous politician. They didn't serve pork & employed muslim staffs.

The assam fish in my opinion was acceptable slightly above average but the one so memorable was their fried senangin fish. The fried senangin appearance was below average in presentation but the moment you put it into your mouth, wah! so flavorful & crispy.

This one ppl brought me go eat , don't ask me how much.

Will check out the outlet you mentioned in future, thanks

Lontong Kuah & Lontong Kering (with beef rendang) at Onn Kitchen. They operates at a traditional Malay's wooden house.


Lontong Kering comes with beef rendang - must try & only available in the morning. If you are lucky, will get the coconut shredded topping - depends on availability of the day. RM 8/ serving - very flavorful & tasty, worth for value.


RM 7/ serving - above average. I prefer lontong kering over kuah version.

Long time didn”t add the list. Some update for this year
