It is a stall that sells Malaysia-style ban mian. According to a Google review, it has 4.1 stars at the Taman Sentosa branch. It has another branch at Taman Maju, not far away from here, and other branches around Johor. Based on the ratings at other branches, it seemed to be one of the good ban mian shops in Johor that I should try. It opens at night for this roadside stall, and if want to have them in the afternoon, the Taman Maju branch operates in a shop lot starting from morning until night.

It was my first visit with a friend who brought me to Johor Bahru (JB) for a short vacation. In return, I suggested good food for both of us to try. Of course, my friend knows better than I do when it comes to visiting JB.

By the roadside

Having my dinner by the roadside was normal in the olden days but I cannot find them in Singapore. It was my first time eating with my friend by the roadside and I was concerned about our safety too so I tried to locate a table that was safe enough for us to enjoy our meal. Unfortunately, most of the tables were occupied except one in front of the stall which was used by the worker to place chilli paste.

The auntie noticed just two of us and asked us to use that table and she would get other workers to clean up the table. Better than nothing, right?

Next, I ordered two bowls of mee hoon kway soup and this was how it looked like when it was served. I liked their soup, tasty sweet and a little hint of saltiness. It added fish balls, meatballs, and the most important ingredient, the mani cai. It has all the ingredients that I expected except the black fungus. It should have It was popping hot when it was served, thankfully, the weather was cooling and helped to cool down our bowl of noodles.

While eating it, I heard a lady order a vegetarian version of ban mian with just shredded mushroom and mani cai.

Instant version

I love the time spent preparing the wantons soup with fish balls, broccoli and ban mian. The minced meat was marinated for two hours and added some wood-ear that I took out from a box, an accidental discovery, and now I cooked it with minced meat and carrots. Additional shredded wood-ear I used to cook with mushrooms and minced meat.

The instant ban mian is no longer instant with all these ingredients that I added except the fried anchovies, and chilli that they provided. Overall, the ban mian is quite nice, if anyone drops by this stall, can buy some to cook at home. They have both soup and dry versions.
