A Place Like Big Tree Ipoh But In Johor

MY GIRL AND I WERE ON OUR WAY TO TAMAN PERLING when I received a call to invite us for breakfast *or should I say lunch* cos it was almost noon by then.  The suggested place for our meal was at Tun Aminah and we had not been there before.  I readily agreed and since I did not know the way, I had to follow their car from behind... After some turnings here and there, we reached this special place which reminded me of Ipoh Big Tree!  *Blame it on the rain, I forgot to take pictures of the name and place*  :(
All I can say is that the shop is right at the end of the road, dead end and it has a big corner space... 
 
We had all these as per above!
The black vinegar was fabulous, I drank quite a fair bit but skipped the meat....
Freshly fried and crispy!
A bit of everything here.....
And some Reds for kick!
Real Spicy!
A big bowl of Koay Teow to fill up the space... 
Surprisingly the koayteow is just as smooth as those sold in Ipoh.... 
Who would miss Ipoh now when one could have these down south? 
Total cost with drinks for four persons came to RM49 for the above...
