B frank, as a local . i dont really think the noodle was somehow delicious.
They have a porridge shop nearby too . It was crowded just because nearby the karaoke, and that's the only shop open in midnight, the porridge shop open until 2-3 a.m .
When there was nothing to eat, and porridge and noodle soup seen like a healthier food in midnight.

Just had dinner there with my wife and kids.
Everyone loved the chill and relaxing atmosphere. Staff were generally friendly.
We had the following items:
1. Mushroom soup 4.5/5
Can do with more mushrooms in soup but taste is fantastic.
2. Carbonara 4/5
I'm seriously surprise such a cafe can whip up a quality Italian dish. Not the best I've eaten but it's very close.
3. Oreo cheese cake 4/5
Whole family loved it. I think it's alright.
4. Cappuccino 5/5
Amazing cup. Probably the best I've had in a while. The star of this cafe.
Things here are quite expensive by local standards but if you're going to spend some time in the cafe, I think it's worth it.
Will definitely be back.
3. Foo Soon Bak Kut Teh
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 8 reviews

A great Bak Kut Teh option in Johor. You can’t come to this part of the world and not try Bak Kut Teh… it’s an essential experience! For the uninitiated, it’s basically pork rib soup, but can have subtle flavor variations depending on the chef. Places that specialize in Bak Kut Teh will serve it with youtiao (deepfried Chinese doughstick)… perfect for dunking!... and green vegetables.
Locals will usually order an array of side dishes, almost all of which consist of offal or “spare parts”… it can be a little daunting for your first Bak Kut Teh experience!
Foo Soon was very welcoming to us foreigners, and our server was happy to make some recommendations. Foo Soon seems to serve the offal with their Bak Kut Teh as default, as we normally try to avoid the “spare parts” and just have the pork ribs… but our meal arrived full of offal. It was no big deal… we just ate the parts we liked and left the offal behind. Next time we’ll try to order the soup WITHOUT the offal and see how successful we are :)
There will definitely be a next time… the soup and ribs were so delicious we will surely be back.
4. Maedo Restaurant (Skudai)

Reviewed By Leow90 - Johor Bahru District, Malaysia
I had been living in the same street with Maedo during my childhood time. It was quite good back in that time but it went very bad during my past two visits (New year and last month).
Their dishes were plainly salty and over-seasoned and without any exception to their toufu, vege and broth that were supposed to be mild. My father, who loves salty foods, also cannot tahan their foods. No visit will be paid again.

If you are looking for local delicacies, this is the place to explore. It's opposite Terrace housing and don't mistaken another eatery behind which is facing Petronas petrol kiosk. Nasi lemak, craypot rice, yong tau foo and pork chop are highly recommended.

You can feel a team of energetic young staff ready to serve you once you stepped inside. Colorful and clear menu helps me in deciding what to order. It was a clean and comfortable place to hang out with friends. I have a cup of ice dripped coffee today, while my friends have cappuccinos. The ballista makes us a cute bear latte art. The price on their menu was within acceptable range.

Lequa Cafe is situated at Taman Sutera Utama. There were many shop lots that offered similar food choices. Sutera Utama has many cafes and restaurants to choose from. We chose to have high tea in Lequa as many of our friends posted some photos of attractive desserts in their Instagram.
The exterior design of the cafe drew us too. It is quite different compared to other cafes in Sutera. Its exterior design is exquisite. It showed a little bit of eco-friendly design. The cafe offered greenery sensation. This cafe really do attracts those who love eco-friendly environment like us.
The cafe offered non-smoking and smoking area. My friends and I chose to dine inside as it was more cozy and comfortable. The interior design of the cafe was remarkable. It provided table settings for both small and large groups. It provided a personal space for diners too as their table settings are not too near with each other.
Staffs were polite and very attentive to our orders. They were so thoughtful to give us water before we order. They gave us some recommendation on their cakes too. They recommended their black forest and tiramisu cakes.
As we went to this cafe for desserts, we ordered their recommendation.
Our orders were:
*Tiramisu
(Delightfully sweet and light)
*Black forest cake
(Full-rich chocolate taste. I did finished this dessert. Normally, it is struggling for me to finish any dessert but this one was divine)
*Iced Milk
(pure-rich milk taste)
*Rose latte
(One of the best rose latte that I have ever had)
Our experience in Lequa Cafe was delightfully pleasant. Staffs were friendly. Desserts were amazing and their drinks were good.
Definitely a five ratings review for Lequa Cafe. This cafe is a must try for those cafe lovers, photo lovers, small or big groups and also, for those who want to have a good quality time of their own.

Service: Excellent service. Well anticipate on guest needs. We came with our 1 year old boy. Without asking, the waitress brought a baby high chair and plastic utensils. Food recommendations were good.
Food: Good flavours and great selections on the product. But the menu engineering/design, can be improved.
Ambience: slightly dull but with good food and great service, it's forgivable.
Overall it's really great restaurant to patronise.
