Very tasty, piping hot and affordable
Verdict: I never taste the local Kelantanese food but my meal at Warung Soho was rather satisfying and the affordable price certainly one of the factor I’ll make a revisit.
Nasi Kak Wok / Nasi Mmanggey is without a doubt one of the best things I have tried so far this year. So when a reader named Wan Rohani Wan Hussin suggested that I try something similar at Warung Soho, we went there immediately on the same day itself. Long story short: it was a satisfying Kelantanese meal which we enjoyed thoroughly. But just so you know, Warung Soho went viral early this year so you might, *just might* encounter queues. Since we dropped by in the afternoon during the fasting month, there were only a handful of customers and most of them were taking away for later consumption.
Thumbs up to the Nasi Goreng Kampung Muar With Ayam Goreng Berempah. The Johor's version of Nasi Goreng was a bomb, not oily but full of Wok-Hei. I can taste the various kind of spices and salty ikan bilis (anchovies) coating each grain of the rice. Quite a filling dish that comes with ayam goreng berempah, fried egg, fish crackers and housemade sambal on the side.
We start off our dinner with an order of the famed Mee Rebus Johor (RM12). Served with a thick gravy with condiments on the side such as the fried keropok, bean sprout, beef meat, eggs and Taufu Goreng is a real treat.
Mee Rebus Johor to start, one of the best sellers you shouldn’t leave without trying. Yellow noodles, dressed in a bed of thick, creamy gravy in sweet and subtle spicy concoction. Halved hard boiled eggs, bean sprouts, tauhu, meat slices, crushed crackers, fried shallots complete the topping, generously.
