JB BEST Fried Arrowhead | Chinese New Year Snack,

If you're a fan of authentic, freshly fried snacks, JB BEST Fried Arrowhead is definitely worth a visit when you're in Johor Bahru. What I love most about this place is how transparent they are with their preparation — you can actually watch the entire frying process happening right on the spot, which adds a level of trust and excitement to every bite. One thing that stands out is their commitment to quality — they change the frying oil daily, so the arrowhead chips don’t have that unpleasant oily smell common to some fried snacks. The freshness is palpable; the crisps are fragrant and perfectly crunchy without any greasy aftertaste. In my experience, the shelving and slicing of the arrowhead is done meticulously to get the ideal thinness, which contributes to the consistent texture in every chip. It’s no surprise that this snack becomes a beloved staple during Chinese New Year, as it pairs wonderfully with tea and festive gatherings. Located at the Taman Sri Tebrau Hawker Centre on Jalan Badik 1, this place is easy to find and open daily, making it convenient to grab this treat whenever the craving strikes. They come in different jar sizes, priced reasonably, making it great for sharing with family and friends. If you enjoy traditional snacks with a crispy twist and want a genuine local Malay Chinese New Year experience, JB BEST Fried Arrowhead should be on your must-try list. It’s more than just a snack — it’s a celebration of Johor Bahru’s rich culinary heritage that I’m excited to share with fellow food lovers.
