A trip to Muar without trying any Assam Pedas is truly incomplete. This is the reason why we are visiting Muar. This time we were try on 2 different restaurant that operate by 2 brothers respectively. Here is some of the history.... The parent start the business (Restoran Chun Hui 全妃亞參魚(亞答屋) with just a small stall outside the house at Parit Jawa. Then the business expand and later its time for the parent to retire so they past the home business to one of the son while another son start a new restaurant at town area. OK, lets stop with all the grandmother story as the food is more important!
