Is it just us, or it’s pretty easy to find amazingly good chicken chops in JB? This was one of the top must-visit places on our food itinerary, and it’s so convenient how it’s located only a few steps away from our favourite chicken chop at Hua Mui! A comparison is thus inevitable...

The first thing you’d probably notice about Hua Mui is how charmingly old-school it is. From its brown-and-cream tiled floors to its staircase banister, Hua Mui makes us think of what our parents would call “a simpler time.” 

Hua Mui is designated as part of the Iskandar Puteri Heritage Trail, due to its long history in Johor Bahru. The restaurant has been around since 1946, and you can only imagine all sorts of memories and stories that Hua Mui must be keeping for over half a century.
