Restoran G & D (佳肴城海鲜饭店) – Labis, Johor, Malaysia

I was visiting a colleague’s house in this remote parts of Johor recently and we had our dinner here. I tried to google and see if any one has written about this place and apparently not… at least in English.  Anyways this place is THE RESTAURANT in Labis town and everyone knows where this place is. The default place for all weddings, birthdays, family dinners, gatherings, etc. I heard so much about this place prior to my visit and was really looking forward to sinking my teeth into all their specialities, especially the reknown Hokkien Mee. See pics below with descriptions:
