Restoran Woon Kiang: Kway Teow Kia In JB That’s Open Till 2:30AM

Restoran Woon Kiang in JB opens till 2:30am

When you think of braised pig offal, you’d think: kway chap—but across the Causeway, a similar spread is known as kway teow kia, and there’s no place to better acquaint yourself with this popular Johor street nosh than at Restoran Woon Kiang.

Kway teow kia takes the spotlight here, and you should definitely order this alongside the various braised meats and innards.

Served in a bowl of light yet robust, slightly herbal broth that’s supposedly a mix of both stock and braising zhup, the noodles are super smooth and silky. The bowl also comes topped with shallots and lard bits, which add a welcome fragrance to each mouthful. When the kway teow has sat in the broth for a bit, it tastes even better.

According to the order chit, there are 25 items on the menu at Restoran Woon Kiang, which include Pork Belly, Braised Duck, Preserved Vegetables, Salted Egg, Chye Poh Omelette, Crispy Prawn Roll, Chicken Feet, and more.

On the offal front, there’s Stomach, Intestine, Ear, and even Pig Head Skin. There aren’t any stated prices, but you’ll be charged according to the portion you ask for. Have these with the accompanying chilli dip, which leans spicy.

For reference, we spent RM41 (~S$11.80) for our full spread.

There are both air-conditioned seats within the shop space, or if you prefer dining al fresco, you can choose from tables set up outside the eatery, which spans two units. The crowd tends to start pouring in after dusk, but we hear that it gets additionally crowded come late night, since Woon Kiang operates till 2:30am daily.

For supper eats in Singapore, we’ve got a list of late night dessert spots you can check out. Otherwise, this list will sort out any kway chap cravings you might have!
