Restoran Abalone Master Yong (Taman Molek)

I finally ventured into Taman Molek, near Taman Johor Jaya. Taman Molek houses a golf resort Ponderosa,  a famous steamboat buffet, Indonesian food gems and many other foodies to their local community. I personally named Taman Molek and Johor Jaya, the "Twin sisters of undiscovered chinese food gems" as Singaporeans are often too attracted towards Taman Sentosa and forgotten the goodness of other town centres nearby.To me, Taman Sentosa has become too commercialised with Singaporeans for my liking. 

The restaurant I want to recommend today is Restoran Abalone Master Yong. To be frank, Master Yong is very much similar in taste and price to Restoran 59 (the famous supper place where Singaporeans flock to for supper and nearby outlets for car wash). The main difference is that Master Yong offers other innovative abalone dishes, in addition to their abalone noodles and the ambience is also more present. Restoran 59's advantage is that it is open from 7 pm till late night and it is near to a car wash. Taste wise, both outlets are really too similar.

Pig Trotters failed according to my Mum. 

Thank God, the noodles made up for it!

You can order Kuay Teow as an alternative.

Must Try, the Mamee chicken is superb!

First Time I tried fried abalone slices.
Great taste but too chewy.

Total Price for a family of 4 adults and 1 kid (4 bowl of noodles and 2 side dishes)
: S$35.
(Just right, nothing to shout about)

Restoran Tapai Tang (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - Comparable to Teck Sing / Taman Melodies / Non-Halal )

I just realised that more people are subscribing to North Explorer. Thank you very much for the support. I must apologise for not updating as regularly as before because of my busy work schedule. However, the following post will not disappoint you all. 

I was recommended to Restoran Sing Kee by my friend. However, the food at Sing Kee never really impressed me (more about Sing Kee in another post). Instead, the restaurant beside Sing Kee was triple the goodness in terms of taste, value and service. This restaurant that  I want to highly recommend is Restoran Tapai Tang, neighbour of Restoran Sing Kee.  

Apparently, Restoran Tapai Tang is ranked second in Johor Bahru for cooked food (煮炒) by Yummy King. The speciality of Restoran Tapai Tang lies in its seafood, curry fish head and salted kampong chicken.  In fact, their food menu is similar to the famous Teck Seng in terms of taste and price. However, I prefer Restoran Tapai Tang now because of its ample parking space right in front of the restaurant (You can watch out for your car while you tuck in the food).  The service by the staff is also excellent. For the soccer and music fans, they have a giant screen at its open air spacing for matches and singing (starts from evening).
