Kam Long Ah Zai – A Curry Fish Head Icon in Johor Bahru
#johorbahrutrip
If you’re crossing into JB and hunting for a legit local food experience, Kam Long Ah Zai Curry Fish Head should be right at the top of your list. Just a short stroll from City Square Mall, this no-frills eatery has been dishing out its famous curry fish head since 1983—and it’s still drawing crowds daily.
Here’s why people line up: their claypot curry fish head is rich, fragrant, and full of soul. Think fresh red snapper swimming in a mildly spicy, coconut-based curry, accompanied by cabbage, lady’s fingers, and long beans. The real game-changer? The tau kee (fried beancurd skin) that soaks up all that curry goodness. It’s comfort food at its finest.
Set in a classic kopitiam-style space, it’s all about simple vibes and unforgettable flavors. Prices start from just RM31 (~S$8.80)—a steal for a meal this iconic.
Pro tips:
Get there early—the queue starts building before noon.
Open daily from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
Address: 74, Jalan Wong Ah Fook, Bandar Johor Bahru, 80000 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia.
A true JB food legend—come hungry and ready to sweat a little over that spicy, satisfying curry.
