Johor Premium Outlets And Koay Teow Kia

Heard that the Johore Premium Factory Outlet offers great deals and to "kill" the curiosity, we made a trip there one fine afternoon. Initially I thought that it was situated somewhere near the town but little did I know that it was quite far from town, in fact it is on the highway....
after half hour or so, we reached.... 
it was a Monday when we went visiting 
and the crowd was not there.... 
not much sales so I guess not many shoppers....
we just walked in and out of the shops... 
something like "window shopping"... 
the prices are fantastic everywhere... 
too Heavy for me to pay ... hahahaa...
made me regret not buying more during my US trip...
 So this is the one of the latest development in JB...
Another one will be Legoland... yet to go...
Back to town, my friend took us to taste the popular dish
called Koay Teow Kia...
Here is the Koay Teow Kia...
Flat noodles in dark soup...
Never tasted it before in Ipoh...
Would like to try it again when I go to JB again....

  9. This is in Johore or in BiKok? The surroundings & and the sign board so Americanised reminds me of Barstow where I almost bought the 501 jeans. Oh the Keow Teow Kia is the son or daughter of Keow Teow Pa? hehe.

  11. this dish is found only in Johor but actually, it's just thinner strips of koay teow in a brown gravy sauce, into which all the other ingredients are boiled, eg. tauhu, hard-boiled eggs, chicken feet.
