I'm sure a lot of tourists face a dilemma with the wide selection of seafood restaurants on offer in Johor Bahru. Typical questions would involve "If the seafood is fresh ?", "Are they expensive and will I get cheated ?", "How's the ambience" ... and the list goes on.
Look no further, let OKGO JB show you around with the best and the famous in town.

Home of the natives ~ Orang Asli Seafood Village




Welcome to the orang asli village where the houses and restaurants are all built atop the wooden stilts !There are a total of 4 seafood restaurants nested in this area, with Asli and Kah Ling being the more famous ones. Legoland is a stone throw away, about 10min drive. One can enjoy the scenic views, cool sea breeze and at the same time indulge on the freshest seafood you can find in Johor Bahru. The fishes are reared and kept in the "kelong" right beside the restaurant. You can't get any fresher than that ! Prices are relatively cheap too, and even the locals frequent it.
