CNY Fair Johor Jaya

 The annual CNY Fair in Johor Jaya is one of the biggest in Johor.  It is one of the biggest.  I visited 3 times now.  I first went to explore Johor Jaya with a friend. We took a long way following the bus driver telling us the bus stop to go Johor Jaya.  We found the underground pass!  Then I go JJ again the following week by dropping off at Aeon.  I found it is far easier to walk to JJ.  Now I keep going to JJ since via Aeon Tebrau.

The fair has a few bak kwa stalls.  The pork belly bak kwa is very popular.  Some has waited for a few hours.  I gave and then found that the shop is 10min walk from the fair.  So I walk to the shop instead and there is no queue there!!!

Lots of new year goodies but I did not buy any because Malaysia new year goodies do not use coconut or only in small quantities.  Sweet cakes and mandarins are plentiful.

Johor Jaya is a residential district.  So there are plenty of kopitiams.  I enjoy trying out the different hawker food.  There are a few bak kut teh shops as well.  Emperor Wanton Mee was pretty good.
