Muar Food

Muar Food

When we arrived at the popular food street, all we know is that it is very very crowded... which only means one thing, the food must be good!

So, we walked around a bit to see what was the popular food. The main food attraction is actually the wan tan mee. But as there were no seats and because we were told to wait for 30 minutes, we decided to just try something else.

But just opposite that is also another wan tan mee seller. Though less crowded, but still, it looked ok, and so we gave it a try.

We hardly had to wait long for the wan tan mee to arrive. The wan tan mee was not too bad, though I think we've tried some better ones.... so maybe that stall opposite is really worth the wait.

After the makan, we went to jalan jalan along the street a bit more to see if there's any other food to eat. And we chanced on this one - the fried oyster omelette.

I didn't know how popular this was until the lady at the stall came up to us without us asking, saying "No more. No more".

We were stunned - how come 'no more' but yet they are cooking so much?! Wow! And what another miss!

But the one thing we did not miss is the Muar's famous otak otak! They were everywhere with different price range.

And another thing we got is also the bak kwa (bbq sliced pork). I know it's quite a normal thing, but somehow it still caught our attention. Maybe it's the popularity of the shop and the atmosphere here.

The guy took a fan to blow the smoke and to start the fire.

And not too far, something that will go well with the bak kwa - homemade bread loaves.

Soon, it was time to head back - but not before I 'ta pao' something back... with quite a fair bit of people eating, this got to be good.

Yes, I bought some duck rice back for dinner!

And that purchase sealed our one hour food outing in Muar! I'll most likely be back again - next time for a longer time & earlier... to try that wan tan mee & oyster omelette! :)
