If you asking the Johor residents where to grab decent supper at night, this place usually will be on the list of recommendation.

This noodles place only open in the evening from 6pm onwards till late night, making it one of the best supper spot to grab some meal at night.

You can choose from either sitting outdoor beside the road, or indoor with air-conditioned.

As for their wan tan mee, you can choose either with the black sauce or not, whether to go with spicy or non-spicy. Also to choose the portion either small or big.

I actually like it considering the ingredients given, every plate of wan tan mee will come with a fried cracker, char siew, veggie and wanton in a bowl of soup.

I believe most people who have visited to Johor Bahru before would have hear of or already try this place.

You may need to drive, take bus or Grab to reach here from custom. But totally worth the trip when you see all the ingredients on display.

Yes, the laksa here is much like our yong tau foo, where you first need to pick any ingredients that you want to add on to your laksa.

Lots of options available, from vegetables to beancurd to fishballs and more. Then choose the type of your noodle and you are good to go.

They have dry version too but everyone's having the soup one.

The soup has a little bit of thickness surprisingly despite being clear. It's quite flavourful and a little fishy too. Ingredients were generally competent, the sharp tasting preserved veggies is the slight novelty

Pretty decent

A hearty recommendation, and I suggest opting for the normal noodles for a richer and tastier experience. The original noodles boast a bold and slurpy texture, absorbing the curry flavours even better than the Kway Teow option I tried. It's safe to say this is one of the best noodles I've ever had, prompting me to do some research on their supplier. I was delighted to discover that their noodles are sourced from Chop Eng Tin, a traditional noodle maker since 1950, committed to a preservative-free approach. These noodles stand out, resembling the eggy Hong Kong noodle type rather than the typical yellow noodles with alkaline taste.

Now, back to the curry mee. The scrumptious bowl features pig skin, char siew, fried beancurd skin, fried beancurd, five spice roll, and beansprouts. The generous portion of ingredients enhances the overall experience. Adding to the happiness is the savoury bean paste sambal chili, providing an extra layer of umami to the dish. The subtle spicy kick at the end is just awesome.

No doubt, I'll be returning for more of their exceptional noodles and perhaps a visit to the supplier to bring some home.

Although the location is a bit hidden from the main streets of JB, but this place is constantly packed with people during lunch peak hours.

Only one item available on the menu, it is their signature soy sauce chicken that grilled perfectly before serving to your plate of rice. Accompanied by some veggies.

Queue is usually formed outside the shop, with everyone waiting patiently for the table availability. The wait is totally worth it for a piece of juicy grilled chicken.

Although they would get your order at your table and serve the chicken rice to you. But you have to self-service with the soy sauce, chilli sauce and soup from the counter inside the shop.

So next time you are here in JB, perhaps this is a good chance to try something the locals like.

Going around Segamat town and you would probably find this name familiar. Yes, this popular wanton mee in Segamat has a few stalls around.

But many people still visiting their original place at the roadside, in the compound of a house.

Their noodle texture is interestingly very chewy, mixing with the dark sauce.

Mee Rebus Biasa (RM 8.90) consists of blanched yellow noodles served with delicious thick gravy, a boiled egg on the side, garnished with fried onion, green chili, Chinese parsley, crispy keropok, and lime. The gravy amazed me once again – thick, savoury, and sweet, with the fritters adding a lovely texture to the dish. The Burpple Beyond deal for a complimentary Mee Rebus dish is still valid, but communication about the deal might be a bit challenging due to limited English proficiency.

This time, I also ordered their Nasi Lemak Ayam Goreng (RM 11.90), a traditional dish that caught my eye during my previous visit. I'm glad I tried it – a yummylicious plate of fragrant fluffy coconut rice, hard-boiled egg, savoury crunchy fried peanuts and anchovies, sliced cucumber, and a generous serving of special-made sambal tumis, accompanied by a freshly fried chicken on the side. The coconut rice was fragrant, and the sambal tumis wins my heart with its deep, spicy, sweet, and savoury flavours. The fried chicken, although a bit greasy, had tender and flavourful meat.

After having such a fantastic meal here the first time, I'm back to feast on their Mee Rebus again. It's just that amazing.

Sometimes, the simplest dishes surprise you with their brilliance. I tried the Roti Canai Kosong (RM 2) and Roti Canai Telur (RM 2.50) here, and they exceeded my expectations.

The prata was beautifully kneaded and cooked to a slight crisp perfection. What stole the show, though, was the curry. Despite its watery appearance, the sambal infused within thickened it into a delightful gravy, adding an incredible depth of flavour. A taste that's truly unforgettable.

Please, and I repeat, please avoid the Wanton Noodles (RM 8) here. Trust me, it's not worth it. Despite looking appetising in the picture, the taste was a letdown. The noodles had an odd flavour and although they were cooked to the right texture, they lacked seasoning and tasted rather bland despite the dark sauce. The char siew was disappointing too—it seemed more like regular pork coloured differently and was rather dry.

The accompanying soup was quite standard, with that distinct MSG taste, and only came with three tiny wantons. Overall, one of my worst experiences with wanton noodles.

For people coming to KSL should be familiar with the wanton noodle place just around the area.

Opens as early as 7am, making it a perfect spot to grab some breakfast.

Available in 3 different sizes, sauce mixed with chili sauce. They may look bland but definitely tasty. Topped with pieces of char siew.

The wantons come separately in a bowl of warm soup.
