Pasar Tani Larkin (Larkin Farmers Market), Johor Bahru

December 26th, 2009 florence.tan

Located just outside the Larkin Stadium, there are rows of open-air stalls selling local produces. The official name of this area is called “Pasar Tani Larkin” – or Larkin Farmers Market. The area gets crowded during Saturdays, when shoppers come here for grocery shopping.

If you want to cook some beef over the weekend, this is the place you should come to – and you should come very early. The beef here are really FRESH and gets sold out by 8.30am. Besides coming early, you might want to smile gently at the shop-owners as well, as most of the premium beef are actually reserved for regulars and she might not be willing to sell to you in the first place! At RM$23.00/kg, it is worth every cent and you can actually see many Singapore-Registered cars parked here – some actually travel all the way from Singapore to make purchases here.
