A backalley food street(巴刹仔)

This food street originated on the bridge of the canal beside the Indian Temple adjacent to Jalan Wong Ah Fook. Then it got shifted to the vacant plot opposite Hong Leong Bank. Now finally it got it's permanent home at the back alley of Meldrum Walk. 

It reflect the lifestyle of a typical Johorian. Some of the stalls are there even before we were born. These stall witness some of our birth and growing up.

When hubby and I was still in the courtship days, we love to go there for dinner. Now we will go with our child. It is a way to teach her some of her heritage in Johor. 

I will usually patronized a few of the hot favourite stall. Charcoal BBQ chicken wing and oyster omelette are some of them.


The oyster omelette stall owner had a special customizer order for older generation pure Johorians and unless you are a pure Johorian who were born and bred there else no chance of tasting it.
Sotong Bakar

Ikan Bakar



















Ikan bakar with petai and four sided bean is another favourite of mine. This stall is must visit stall for me. The stingray & squids are usually cooked to perfection by the lady stall owner. They are just 2 stalls away from the chicken wings stall (on the right side). If I never remember wrongly the stall name is 国城。



The charcoal BBQ chicken wings is my all time favourite. Their chicken wings are very juicy and not dry. A little costly selling at RM 2.00 per wing. But it is well worth the price and the long waiting time of 30-40 mins.







The Hokkien mee beside the chicken wing stall is nice too. They are new, only there for about 2 years plus but they skills are quite ok.



The Char Kuey Tiao stall is a little further down about 2 stalls away from the oyster omelette stall. Remember to order Kuay Tiao Mee else they only give you Kuay Tiao.  Stall name 巴剎仔See Hum Kuay Tiao.
