Restoran Ikan Asam Pedas — Restaurant in Johor

❌ RM11.00 FOR A TIN BEER ❌ 🤷If you're bringing an office team or clients to showoff you can afford a luxury food regardless of taste, you can come here.

Everything was great! Please try it when you...

We had dinner as a group of 9 during our church retreat here. Beside the otak and crispy fish, I think the star on the menu is the ikan asam pedas with its balanced taste of asam, sweetness, saltiness and spiciness. It is comparable with a similar memorable dish I tried in Malacca. Prices are reasonable as they are not touristic and cater mainly to the pockets of locals. You can reach here by grab taxi from the city centre...
