Laksa Johor rocks in Melbourne


JOHOR BARU: Many Malaysians and Singaporeans are getting their first taste of the fish gravy-rich laksa Johor thousands of kilometres away Down Under, thanks to the young owner of a Johorean restaurant there.

Engku Putri Irna Mysara Ungku Mokhsin’s Sijori Malay Eatery has been serving up traditional Malay dishes found in the southern triangle of Singapore, Johor and Indonesia’s Riau Islands in the northern suburb of Bundoora, just a 20-minute drive from Melbourne’s Central Business District.
