Address: Jalan Camar Perling, Taman Perling, 81200 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia

This was a Completely Random Location I discovered while I was just walking around and exploring Taman Perling. 🚶 Its located at what looks like a Carpark Area that is relatively near to Perling Mall. 🚗 No Idea what this name is officially called although Google Map calls it "Dataran Niaga Taman Perling" which I had a Malay Colleague translate roughly as "Taman Perling Merchant Street". 🤔

All of the Food Trucks focus only on Malay Foods. There are no Chinese or Indian Food Stalls. Just like a Regular Food Truck or Pasar Malam, Cash Transaction only. 💵

While I cannot confirm the Operating Hours of this place, Google Maps reports the Operating Hours as Everyday (Except Wednesday) 10.30am to 6.30pm. I definitely can confirm its open on Thursday at least because it was 2pm on a Thursday when I was there. 🕜 So take this as a Reference if you want.

There weren't much Customers around when I was there. But perhaps it will get more crowded later in the day? 🤔 The Whole Place is essentially a Gathering of Food Trucks 🛻 and feels like a Pasar Malam that is catered for Cars because of how far they're spaced apart. 😅

As you can see in the Video I attached, drive up to whichever Food Truck you fancy, order directly, grab your Food and Drive Off. 🚗 Given that Malaysia is a Very Car-Focused Country, I thought this Concept made alot of sense and I'm surprised I don't see more of such around when I was exploring JB. 🤔

Protip: If you would like to dine in, the only places to do so are 2 Cendol Stalls that have Sheltered Tent, Tables and Chairs to do so. ⛺ One is Noticeably Larger than the Other and they are located on Opposite Sides of this "Pasar Malam". Of course it goes without saying, it would be polite to buy something from them if you would like to be able Dine In at their Premises. 👍


A Sample of Foods that I purchased and the List of Food Stalls I visited:

Here are some of the Other Stalls I took Photos of when I was here.
There are at least 20 Food Trucks available although some of them weren't open when I was there. 🤔 I've tried my best to take photo of all of them.
