A good platter of grilled fish or more endearingly known as Ikan Bakar is a meal that is capable of perking up even the darkest of days. And what more compelling than looking at the dish being prepared that sets you drooling helplessly. Fish of your choice is smeared with bright chilli concoction and wrapped with banana leaf then grilled to perfection on a large griddle filled with the essence of the sea. Served steaming hot with diced onions and tangy sauce, it’s indisputably delicious. This opens to a question, where in Johor Bahru? Without the need of you splurging money and settling for anything that is short of delicious, keep scrolling.

Sin Huat Ikan Bakar
Frugal, famous and flavourful, this words sums up this fabled stall that has more than 20 years of experience.

Sizzling StoneGrill
Sizzling StoneGrill offers a nice change from the regular Ikan Bakar scene, allowing patrons a little hands-on. What sets them apart from their competitors is diners have the liberty to grill their choice of meat or seafood themselves on a customised hot stone grill. Give a break to sea bass, mackerel and other local catches and opt for their Norwegian Salmon fillet that is fresh and plump. The key here is personalising the charred consistency according to your liking and delving it down piping hot with their chilli concoction. Sides wise - French fries, mixed vegetables, fresh corn and fried rice are contenders, where you can opt for two. For a full-fledged seafood feast, grace the grill with prawns and scallops too.

Siput Sedut Lemak Cili Padi
An old-school restaurant that epitomes tranquillity. The real draw here is their cockles fried with chilli padi, and we will talk about it in another article. Other crowd-pleasing options on the menu is their grilled sea bass and hardtail which are equally praiseworthy. Expect a huge slab of fish rested on a banana leaf that is meant for sharing, with the right amount of crisp on the outside, while being juicy and fragrant on the inside. With two types of condiments and a wedge of lime tagging along, play around your tangy and spicy scale.

Bubur Nasi Istimewa No.1
Locals widely vouch about this modest stall as the one of the finest places to gobble down grilled dishes. And we were rather clouded with scepticism, a porridge joint delivering Ikan Bakar? Will this marriage of flavours work? And we left the eatery eating our words back, it’s was downright delicious. Fresh fish beautifully charred on the outside and bounteously brushed with an impeccable sauce that bombards your palate with savoury, sour, sweet and spicy ride, you’ll mop the platter clean within a blink of an eye. If porridge isn’t your cup of tea, opt for their steamed white rice.

Ikan Bakar Aurora BBU
Chomping down fresh and flavourful seafood in a laid-back ambiance is what Ikan Bakar Aurora is all about. What claps onto your eyes immediately is the grill counter, smoke billowing with a parade of seafood lined to quell the craving of locals. With raining orders for grilled fish, it would be a crime not adding yours into the list. Do yourself a favour; ask for extra sauce while you order as it got us scrapping the banana leaf dry. The flesh just slides off the bone with the mildest touch, complementing the thick gravy and handful of grilled long beans that add an element of crunch to the dish.
