More amazing food in Johor Bahru

Met up with Joe Chelliah of the Jayhawkers and his wife (who is Roziah Latiff's cousin) later on and had an incredible meal at a local Gerai (Food Stall). Hasnah Haron and her daughter and grandson accompanied us!

local clams (kerang)



Stingray with chilli pepper wrapped in a banana leaf (Ikan Pari-Pari)

Deep fried prawns

Sea Coconut in shaved ice with lime and syrup..
( You can just barely see Hasnah Haron's hands in the second photo.. what a wonderful dinner we had at this Hawker center/food stand in JB )
