Mok Jiu Restaurant (\u83ab\u641e\u725b\u8089\u9762), used to be called “Mok Gao Beef \/ Pork \/ Seafood Noodles”, is famous in Kulai and is highly recommended by locals. It is probably the “best beef noodles in Johor” as coined by netizens. Used to be located in a secluded corner along Kulai Old Street for over 60 years, Mok Jiu Restaurant moved to its new shop in Bandar Indahpura, in May 2025, and in close proximity to AEON Mall Kulai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mok Jiu continues to serve its delicious dry \/ soup versions of beef noodle, pork noodle, seafood noodle \u2014 with rice vermicelli (default), kway teow<\/em> and yellow noodle as selections for noodle \u2014 and various types of soup at the new shop. The restaurant has also advanced to using online menu \u2014 I will keep the old menu here for reference but there may be more variants on the e-menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The signature Beef Noodle (\u725b\u8089\u725b\u809a\u7c89), with thin rice vermicelli, comes with small chunks of beef brisket, lean beef slices and thin cuts of cow’s stomach in clear beef broth with preserved mustard and garnished with scallions, coriander and fried shallots. The beefy ingredients are very soft and tender giving the noodle dish multiple meat textures. The broth is surprisingly tasty, rich and flavourful with nice beef flavours \u2014 never have I tasted such delightful flavours before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mok Jiu’s dry-tossed Beef Noodle with rice vermicelli is a hot-seller and sold out fast too \u2014 only early birds get to eat it. The dry-version uses a specially-concocted sauce that is well-balanced in taste and mixes well with same set of beefy ingredients and noodle, offering very different flavours from the soup version. It is a nice dish to go for too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A bowl of Mixed Beef Soup (\u725b\u6742\u6c64), without noodle, comes with similar beefy-tasty broth with pieces of tender beef brisket, crunchy cow tripes and soft tendons. Get a plain noodle dish, either dry-tossed or in soup, to complete the meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The soup-version Pork Noodle (\u732a\u8089\u809d\u7c89) comes with lean pork slices, pig liver slices and minced pork on the noodle of choice (kway teow<\/em> this time) in clear broth and with same set of garnishes plus crispy fried pork lard. Similarly, the meats are soft and tender and the broth, though lighter in taste without the beefy flavour of the beef broth, is tasty and flavourful from the garnishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Seafood Noodle (\u6d77\u9c9c\u7cbf\u6761\u6c64) is served with big crunchy prawns, slices of tender lean pork, big bouncy fishballs and bitter gourd in clear soup with the noodle of choice and same garnishes. The soup is lighter in taste yet flavourful enough to go with the prawns and fishballs and no bitterness from the bitter gourd. I like this too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Located in Kulai, Mok Jiu Restaurant is just 40 minutes by bus from JB Sentral<\/strong><\/a>. Be early if going for their beef noodles, especially on weekends. If the beef noodles are sold out, both the pork and seafood noodles are great dishes to go for too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
