The best restaurants Southeast

Located in the basement of the hotel, this fine restaurant offers authentic Canton cuisine, half price from Singapore. We have the impression that the servers walk on the stick.

To satisfy the tastes of rich Asians, we serve traditional Italian cuisine, rather popular than refined, of the genus minestrone and spaghetti. A romantic atmosphere and a map of the wines provided.

Very good seafood dishes in a superb setting: The restaurant is located at the top of a hill overlooking the Strait of Johor.

Small Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood. Specialties from Teochew kitchen and head curry.

Try it for grilled fish and shark shark soup. Here too prices go up easily.

Traditional Malay restaurant. Some dishes to try: ulam, pedas pedas or sedative ikan-fired ikan.

For those who prefer to eat Chinese.

It may not look like much at first glance, but it's at the top of all the city's top lists. The restaurant is one of Malaysia's 50 best laksas (every Malaysian restaurant serves laksa), one of the city's Top 7 best restaurants, and its reputation extends to the shores of Singapore. Here, the spicy, rather light broth simmers for a minimum of 3 hours. Chili pepper is added according to your tolerance, and if you ask for it "full spicy", you're likely to fall off your chair.

Syed Ali concocts all the Indian classics with talent for super-sweet prices. His specialty is byriani, a rice dish stewed with spices and served with chicken, mutton, beef or fish. A well-stocked buffet offers a wide variety of dishes served continuously. You can also opt for the thali plate served with roti (bread cakes), dal (lentils), sambal (sweet and sour sauce) and chilli. This address is also ideal for vegetarians, as not all dishes feature meat.

Originating from Muar,mee bandung is a truly typical dish, an in-con-tour-na-ble you won't want to miss. It's a noodle and egg soup, with spices, vegetables, shrimp, cuttlefish and sambal, the chili paste that brings breath and bitterness. Abu Bakar Hanipah is at the top of its game and attracts large crowds. It's best to get there early, as stocks are frequently depleted from 2pm onwards.

This café is a welcome change from the usual bouis-bouis with their round tables and plastic chairs. Here, the walls are decorated with old framed photos, shelves full of books and a large coat of arms with an octopus on it. The tables are all covered with tablecloths, and the neon lights have been replaced by lamps covered in shades. The menu mixes international and local dishes such as nasi goreng, served with fried chicken and a horse egg, or spaghetti covered in a spicy tomato sauce. Bonus: a funky background soundtrack.

If you feel nostalgic about the country, Dominique and his team will be able to cheer you up. This little corner of France located in a somewhat off-center area in the north of the city introduces Malaysians to the specialties of France. On the menu, Burgundy snails, mussels au gratin, foie gras, grilled salmon, beef Béarnaise, but also salade niçoise, onion soup, camembert from Normandy or crème brûlée. All of this will inevitably be accompanied by a good bottle of fermented grape juice to complete the enchanted interlude.
