Pisang Goreng Mawar is said to serve the best banana fritters in Johor Bahru. Improve your usual way of eating a banana. Many people from other Asian countries love it more if it’s fried and then they dip in soy sauce or sambal kicap. This combination seems weird but Pisang Goreng Mawar is successful in making this dish a favorite of many locals! Try it now!
