Johor Restaurants: cheap, moderate and expensive

Johor's culinary specialities include mee rebus, spicy noodles in sweet potato soup, and Johor laksa, an offbeat version of the ubiquitous noodle dish: in Johor's version, the usual rice noodles are replaced with spaghetti (yes, the real Italian deal) and topped with a thick paste of fish, onion, peanuts, chili peppers and spices.

Mee Rebus Stulang, Kacang Pol Haji, Sayur kangkung Cincin Mas and others will surely bring up the mood plus with the nicely done ABC special, cendol and other varieties of hot drink to choose from.

Johor nightlife, bars, clubs and pubs

Stay safe

Crime Rates are high in the recent years. Do take care of your personal belongings while strolling along the streets. Do not dress inappropriately and do not show expensive jewellery.
