Lok Lok


This cuisine has been in JB for a verrrrryyyy long time however lots of people tend to steer away from it due to the hygiene and security. Yes I do agree that you cant go to every loklok van anywhere in the world especially JB. However I have been scouting around to many areas and narrowed down to only two loklok vans in small dangerous JB.
Just in case for those who have no idea what is loklok. Malaccians call it Satay celup. In JB it is normally operated in a van where they open up the hoods and beneath it they offer a wide variety of over 20 different types of finger food skewed in satay sticks. Ranging from cockels, roast pork, taopok, mushrooms, fishball, brocolli, squid, etc...... goes on & on & on. It is self served where you choose which stick you want and you can either dip it in hot boiling water or it can be roasted over a hot grill which is normally taken care of by the vender. Certain vans offer deep fried in oil instead of hot grill. I personally prefer the hot grill as it is not so oily and have you seen the state of the oil for certain vans? Uggghhhh!! (so go for hot grill)
You can choose from 4 sauces provided at the van which are satay sauce, sour chilli sauce, hot chilli sauce and the last I think is some reddish sweet sauce for the squid.

These 2 vans i recommend is located in Sentosa and in Abad area.
Sentosa, located outside of the 7-Eleven around the big lien hoe complex.
Wisma Abad, Located opposite the abad building where they have the disco's and the van is found at the bottom of the row of shophouses.
Be reminded that the vans usually come out at around 1030pm only and they will be there until they are sold out at around 2am plus. So if you want to have everything to choose from, be on time.
