FOOD
Laksa Johor is a truly unique and delicious style of laksa created in Johor. Legend has it that Sultan Sir Abu Bakar of Johor (1833 - 1895) was visiting Europe, and when in Italy, he fell in love with spaghetti. When Sultan Sir Abu Bakar returned to Johor, he directed the palace chef to create a dish combining the traditional laksa gravy with spaghetti. Laksa Johor was thus invented - this must be one of the earliest examples of East-West fusion food.While Laksa Johor is uniquely Johor, it is surprisingly difficult to find at eateries, even here in Johor. The reason is because the preparation of Laksa Johor is extremely tedious and takes long hours.
