Best Fish Head Curry in Johor Bahru (JB)

Written by Updated ago

Spicy, flavourful, fresh and aromatic - the four key qualities to a good curry fish head. Eaten with rice or bread, alongside an abundance of fresh vegetables such as okra, brinjal, cabbage, and onions, a delicious pot of curry fish head will leave you craving for more. Most importantly, the freshness of the fish used. It has to be flaky and firm served in a generous portion. Be it creamy or spicy, we love them all.

    Century Curry Fish Head 世纪瓦煲咖哩鱼头 - Cedar Point Hawker CenterNon halal 01f78899591256b47a2708a65f6538333b86089a30fbd22545a41deece4ea490

    The Chinese styled curry fish head at Cedar Point Hawker Center is rather popular among the locals. The piping hot claypot takes about 10-15 minutes to served and it's well worth the wait. Tender and flaky fish that literally falls apart when placed in your mouth, along with delicious vegetables and plenty of crispy beancurd that soaks up all that curry gravy. A second bowl of rice doesn't seem that far off anymore.

    63 Restaurant is one of the rarer places that allows you to choose between fish head or fish fillet for its claypot curry. Made to be a tad spicier than most places but rich enough to give that 'oomph', the curry fish head here is definitely worth the try. 

    Tips

    Steamboat available here too. Fish head can also be exchanged for fish fillets for those who are lazy.

    Things to expect

    Tables and chairs set-up by the side of the road and a huge menu filled with delicious food.

    Best with

    Tea.

    Price

    RM22.00 to RM30.00
