The best Bak Kut Teh in Johor Bahru is Shun Fa Bak Kut Teh (Taman Sentosa, Johor Bahru). Also great: Hwa Mei Bak Kut Teh, Kedai Bak Kut Teh Hin Hock and Kedai Makanan Ah Soon.
Taman Sentosa, Johor Bahru, Johor
Order: Herbal bak kut teh with you tiao and sesame oil chicken
Founded on Jalan Sutera in 1975 and now JB's best-known bak kut teh name, drawing locals and Singaporeans across the Causeway. The broth is hearty and the shop is clean and spacious, so it's an easy one for families.
Bukit Chagar, Johor Bahru, Johor
Order: Golden herbal bak kut teh in claypot with pork belly
A JB staple that started back in the 1960s, about 2km from the CIQ. Its golden, peppery-herbal broth is the classic Johor style, and the pork belly and skin get a lot of praise.
Taman Tampoi, Johor Bahru, Johor
Order: Claypot herbal bak kut teh, poached fish
Over four decades in Tampoi and still one of JB's heavyweight BKT names. The claypot broth leans herbal with a liquorice sweetness, and regulars always add the poached fish on the side.
Taman Sri Tebrau, Johor Bahru, Johor
Order: Charcoal-simmered bak kut teh
The soup here is still simmered over charcoal, the old way. That gives a gentler, rounder herbal broth that the morning regulars at Sri Tebrau prefer to the punchier styles.

Taman Abad, Johor Bahru, Johor
Order: Classic pork rib bak kut teh
Steps from KSL City and open all day, it's the easy BKT fix for both locals and Singaporeans popping across. Even the big family pots stay consistent.
