Best Curry Mee in Johor Bahru (JB)

This humble and plain shop is filled with a pungent and tingling aroma wafting through the air, seducing any nasal paths it comes into contact with. Fans have flocked this place for its no-frills curry mee, filled with robust and rich flavours from the coconut milk and utmost fragrant curry spices. You might also realise some hints of a peculiar sharp flavour from the belacan (shrimp paste) - a highly recommended add-on! 

From hawker stall to an established shop, these guys have been consistenly and continuously serving their heavenly curry mee. The noodles are topped with huge chunks of tender chicken, fluffy potatoes, and juicy dried tofu that has been soaked in the rich curry soup. This ravishing dish has well-balanced savoury and spicy flavours, managing to prevent one from overwhelming the another. 

Filled conspicuously with ingredients such as dried tofu, fried fish cake, basil leaves, cockles, and vegetarian meatballs, you can only expect a slurping-good bowl of curry mee here. For those who prefer to stay away from the richness of coconut milk, the curry soup here is milder as they tone down on the use of this ingredient, allowing the flavour of the spices to bloom.

This stall will bring back the nostalgia of roadside tables and stools with an old recipe of curry mee. There is a slight granular texture to the luscious soup as you sip on the ground spices, followed by layers of sweet, savoury, and spicy stings from the coconut milk, shrimp paste, and chopped cili padi.

This long-serving curry mee place has been piquing curiosity for a couple of years now. One of their staple features is the extensive selection of Yong Tau Foo that you can pick to toss into your irresistible bowl of curry mee. You will also notice a unique savoury flavour as well, brought about by the use of chicken broth in their curry soup.
