The first thing you must order at Pou Wok Lou is their signature KL Hokkien mee or Tai Lok Meen 大碌面. Uncle Pou Wok’s rendition is less salty and less lardy than the most hard core KL versions. Uncle Pou Wok’s tai lok meen (fat noodles) are tender and have a nice soft springy bounce to the bite.

4. Meng Meng Roasted Duck Mount Austin
Living in Malaysia, we have all known what makes a good plate of chicken rice.

5. The Bak Kut Teh is Here (这里有肉骨茶)
Sini Ada Bak Kut Teh is a new kid on the block and its style of Bak Kut Teh was different from what people are familiar with in Johor Bahru. Everything in the restaurant was spic and spank, and the ordering system too uses the latest wireless technology and mobile devices. Still, the atmosphere was cosy and relaxed. The staff in cheery yellow tops greeted every customer in an earnest and cheerful way as they arrive and as they leave.
The bak kut teh is in the soupy Teochew style but it tastes different from the popular old names in Johor Bahru. It is not surprising then that Johoreans are split between those who welcome this new flavour and others who prefer the old familiar taste. The soup here is thicker than the usual Teochew style Bak Kut Teh and there is very little of the savoury sweetness that Johor Bahru Teochew Bak Kut Teh is famous for.
The taste of herbs is present with a very subtle hint of “kam” flavour – the kind of taste that we get from dried Mandarin orange peel. The “kam” taste lingered in the mouth for a while after eating. The meat was the firmer kind similar to other popular places that serve Teochew style Bak Kut Teh. You have to try it and decide for yourself if you like it or not.

The braised items like pork, tendons and intestines are in mixed clay pot. Price wise, Sini Ada Bak Kut Teh is at a slight premium over basic shoplot stall or kopitiam prices. For people who prefer their eating places to be very clean and to have a nicer, more comfortable ambiance, the premium may be worth paying.
