Rojak King


This is probably the best ever rojak I have ever eaten. Located along Macallum Street you will find the stall on the left side in front of a coffee shop. If your using the Jelutong Express Highway it is one of the left turnings where you will find a four storey flats just nearby.

What is really good about this rojak is the sauce itself. Normal Rojak sauce usually just has the prawn sauce mixed with some chilli, belachan and chopped peanuts. Here there is a twist to it. The prawn sauce (already with chilly) is mixed with some squid powder and freshly squeezed lime juice. Each bowl mixture is then poured into the smaller packets for take-away.
Squid Powder (that's what the uncle told me)- fine beige coloured powder which has some sugar in it. Perhaps some Belachan too.

But wait this is not just it, wait till you see the next picture. He generously sprinkles uncut peanuts and dried shrimps on the sauce.

Now where can you find such Rojaks around like this? Taste wise, you will never eat any other rojak once you have tried this. It is superbly good. Two thumbs up for this Rojak King stall. This is a must try to those rojak lovers out there.
