Johoreans are amazing. I stopped by their R&R and was greeted by multiple people. Casual "good days" and "salams". Seems like greeting random strangers is still a thing in Johor. The people in my state don't do that anymore. I hope Johor gets to keep that warmth forever.

Hi Steve and Ivana , I’m Yvonne,after watching your video, my husband Tony and I came here for brunch today ( 1/10/23) we ordered the same thing except mee rebus, we both love the nasi briyani and mutton , thanks for your sharing ❤
Since you're in JB, you can jalan-jalan in other parts of Johor as well. Batu Pahat, Muar, Kluang, Segamat, Mersing may have some authentic johorean food.
Kacang Pool is derived from Arabic food Fu'ul. Original Malay language didnt use letter F & V, so we tend to substitute with P & B instead, while in the Arabian language, letter P & V not existed.
Kacang Pool originated from the Middle East. The bean in it is Foul Medammas in Arabic and broad bean or fava bean in English. By the time the dish travelled from the Arabs to our south ie.Singapore n JB particularly, the "Foul" had been changed to "Pool"by locals...i saw on the BBC travel show, Ian Wright the host eating this dish at a roadside stall in Cairo. The locals there break a raw egg into it to mix but we in Singapore n Johor prefer to fry or broil it first.
Steve & ivana should rent the motorbike for ronda2 around the johor to muar, kluang, segamat, mersing, pasir gudang, yong peng, batu pahat, gunung ledang, pulau tioman, pulau aur, pulau tinggi, pulau sibu, desaru etc
the lamb part that you eat with briyani is the famous lamb shank part. rm50 for the lamb shank set with briyani is very fair price. in arabic restaurant in KL usually sell rm50-70 for lamb shank with briyani. at mamak usually they sell lamb shank as separate dish for rm40
The sweetness of the Mi Rebus comes from the chosen starch used to thicken the gravy. 3 top starches: 1) Potato - gravy would be light coloured, taste bland, often used because economical, but less umami. 2) Keledek (Yam) - Sweet, most umami, considered premium because it's now expensive. Gravy colour is darker than potato one. 3) Biskut Marie - Darkest, sweet but not too sweet. Balanced between cost, umaminess, and taste.
Saiful, your bahasa is getting better and better. Ivana, next time just take those food from Saiful, no mercy when it comes to food. Have a fun trip in Johor and looking forward towards your wedding and family visit videos.
One good thing that you have to know.... Malaysia have foods from all over the world, but the best thing is Malaysian always make other country foods "the Malaysian way", and most of the time, it taste better.... 😊😊😊
You should try burasak in Pontian, Johor. It is best eaten with asam pedas ikan tenggiri. But as it has lotsssss of bones (and as Steven does not like fish), you can have it with rendang/kurma as well. It used to be served by Bugis people during raya only. Not many places sell it (I only know 2 shops selling it in Pontian) but you can buy/eat it all year long now. One of the shops is in Pontian town proper (near the old bus station) and the other one is in Benut (about 10 km from Pontian town).
Interesting food vlog. So fun watching Steve enjoying nasi briyani and that lamb leg....😂 Great you both are enjoying good Johor food. After all those delicious food, Steve is going to sleep like a goat, not a log? What a joke !! 😂😅 Steve oh Steve !
Mee rebus actually use almost same spice blend of normal curry, but the sauce is thicken with mashed yellow sweet potato, and some ppl put crushed dried prawn and crush peanuts in it too, thats where the fishy taste come from
Mee rebus gravy is made of boiled sweet potatoes and with shrimp. That's why it is sweet and fishy. The one you are having is one of the good ones in JB. I am not sure if Mee rebus Haji Wahid is still how I remembered it to be, but this is definitely one of my favourites.
Murtabak Singapore is iconic dish in Johor Bahru. Inspired by ZamZam Restaurant, in Singapore. Try Murtabak Kampung Melayu Majidee, a foodcourt in front of Masjid Kampung Melayu Majidee, Johor Bahru. Prefer Cheese Murtabak. You never regret..
Briyani Johor is one of the best or maybe the best food in the country. I usually will come to any wedding invitation in Johor because they will feast it to the guests. 🤩🤩🤩
While in Johor Bahru, Ivanna, you really should try Mee Rebus Hj. Wahid. They have been selling IT for decades and have won many awards. The nearest outlet to you is actually is in the Larkin Bus Terminal building just across from Selera Johor; the food court that you just had the Biryani.. Go to the food court on the top most floor of the Terminal Bldg and look for the Mee Rebus Hj Wahid stall which is operated by one Haji Rahman ( son of the late Hj Wahid) and his daughter. You should also try his Nasi Goreng Udang ( Shrimp Fried Rice) which is superb fried rice with lots of big shrimps!! Bon Apetit!!!
kacang pool = fool beans. the food was inspired by the Arab version when the owner of Kacang Pool Haji was living there. The recipe was then rebuilt to suit Malaysian taste... since he's from Johor Baru, Kacang Pool is always associated as Johor's food...
Come on Steve... don't be shy to get your hand dirty.... this is Johor. Enjoy eating with your hand. Congratulations, you already eat the signature dish of Johor, Nasi Beriayani and Kacang Pool.... Terbaeekkkk!!😂 Ivana, Mee Rebus using sweet potato for the brooth....
The food in Johor is the best ( my hometown ). Love kacang pooll and nasi beryani Johor is just so delicious. Hope you guys have the time to visit the other towns in Johor ( like Muar, Batu Pahat, Kluang..to name a few) and try the food there as well. Have fun. 💞👍🏻
Pls try Hiap Joo Bakery & Biscuit Factory located in JB Chinatown, which a hundred years old bakery shop. Best banana cake ever you guys should try it !
*Nasi lemak malam jumaat *Laksa johor mama jeli resepi *Mak lam seafood telok sengat U should try in kota tinggi johor..n the beach so nice.. *desaru coast *tanjung balau *batu layar *tanjung sepang
Have u guys tried lontong goreng or lontong/lodeh in johor? Maybe u guys should try those. If u havent tried pasembur/rojak (not fruit rojak), u should try that too. And try mee bandung too!!
next year, the Sultan of Johor and the Permaisuri (Queen consort) of Johor will be their rotation turn to be the King and Queen of Malaysia. the current Sultan of Johor also is the biological brother of the current Raja Permaisuri Agong (Queen) of Malaysia and Tengku Ampuan (Queen consort) of Pahang.
My favorite "mee rebus" type dish of all time is something called "Mee Celur Palembang". Normally you'd have to go to Palembang to get it but I've seen it in the occasional Jakarta food court. One day I'll have to track down a recipe. Anyone know if anyone sells it in KL?
sweet taste in mee rebus usually come from sweet potato. sweetness between sweet potato and sugar is totally different. sweet potato not only to make the gravy sweet but to make the gravy thick
Sweet potatoes with bean paste and dry shrimp made the sauce sweet,but most of the hawker used potatoes and starch which is cheaper and taste is not as good compare with sweet potatoes.
Those first two dishes is not technically a "local" food but Kacang Fol/Pool have interesting backstory how's it get here is related with the formation of Israel
Since one side of my family was from Singapore we grew up eating kacang pol. In the past you had to soak the beans overnight, these days you just buy the beans in a can. What I found funny was my Chinese Singaporean friends didn't know about it at all. They also had never tried the murtabak from Arab Street.
I don't think it's shredded meat but rather corned beef. At least, that's what my mom uses to make her version of 'kacang pol' which is actually 'ful ' or 'foul mudammas', a Middle Eastern dish. Basically, stewed fava/broad beans.
Kacang Pool is THE BEST food for me in Malaysia 🙏
Go to the original kacang Pol Haji....
Holy Based Ken... BASED
Steve is more Malaysian now....can...can...can...😅
Said no one ever. LOL probably cause it suits european palate

Wah, rupanya ada lamb shank di Selera Johor , Larkin, JB. TQ Steve n Ivana-give the information
Go to Kampung Melayu Majidee and try 'murtabak special' chicken or beef Azo, just opposite the mosque entrance
Really... looks delicious

Mee rebus & mee jawa are famous in S'pore as well.😋
16:04 Mee Rebus. I was expecting a soup noodle serve in a bowl. That one visually look like Mee Jawa.
The sweetness of the Mi Rebus comes from the chosen starch used to thicken the gravy.
3 top starches: 1) Potato - gravy would be light coloured, taste bland, often used because economical, but less umami. 2) Keledek (Yam) - Sweet, most umami, considered premium because it's now expensive.

The soup base of a typical mee rebus is sweet potato, hence the sweetness and thickness.

Ivana go back another day and order the lamb...just for you!! Enjoy.
Ha-ha…Steve is no longer a gentleman with the lamb shank😂
That kambing leg, the culinary name is LAMB SHANK. So, I am guessing the one you ate is Bryani Lamb Shank.

sweet taste in mee rebus usually come from sweet potato. sweetness between sweet potato and sugar is totally different. sweet potato not only to make the gravy sweet but to make the gravy thick
where can we get mee rebus in johor made of sweet potato?

I miss makanan Johore.
Johor @ Johor bahru is underated. We prefer that.
Enough makan2 video guys… gunung ledang hiking next
Sedap gila.. Sangat-sangat sedap.. 😋😋😋
Steve is so excited eating the beriyani lamb that he actually used KNIFE & SPOON instead of FORK & SPOON when eating the rice. 😂
Will you guys do any day trips to Singapore?
Yes! Not exactly sure when, but we will be there
I watched your video more than 10 times already, watched 8:34 hmmm…mmmmm very hilarious Steve 😂😂😂😂
Those first two dishes is not technically a "local" food but Kacang Fol/Pool have interesting backstory how's it get here is related with the formation of Israel
How? I thought it is inspired from Arab 🤔
@@BLU3D4Y Arabs is a race and yeah they one who brings it to Malaysia but they aren't Muslims 🙃
Mee rebus is sweet from the sweet potato
You need lots of lime juice to balance it out
As a Johorean, the quintessence of Johore food is Asam Pedas and Laksa Johore : )
Kacang Phool is Jumi n Greg favourite food.

Kacang pool is adapted from Egyptian Foul Medames which many Malaysians enjoy in Mecca during their pilgrimage....so some Malays start selling them
I’v told you the kacang pool is very delicious 6 ⭐️
Mee rebus sweetness it's come from potato..So many kinds of Mee out there..Let's try any❤

Do you know that if you can't finish yr food you can ask the chef to pack your food and finish it at home or hotel. What you ate was lamb shank.
