Most delicious Indian Rojak in Batu Pahat.
Where do you find the most delicious Indian Rojak around? To our family, we like the rojak from OM. It used to be operating from a little pondok along Jalan Kluang. (After the Wisma Anak Yatim & after the traffic lights junction of Jalan Kluang and Jalan Bakau Condong)
It is now located in a shophouse in Taman Nira. I can’t remember the exact address, just know how to get there. haha.
(It is near previous Prince Theatre, there is a row of shophouses and it is located in the middle)
Update: The address is 18, Jalan Emas, Taman Emas. (Thanks to Tigersden for providing the details)
This is Aunty Devi. Posing for me when I request if I can take a photo of her.
Some of the ingredients that made this rojak so delicious.
From the outside…
Most people eat there, but we packed them because we had guest at home that were visiting and wanted to eat rojak from here.
When you reach home, the ingredients that made this rojak ‘oommpph’ is the sauce.
Pour it over the rojak and dig in!
Try it if you have not. You might just fall in love with this Rojak.

If Kasturi, Aunt Devi’s niece reads this, my sister Jaime says hi!
Lama dah tak jumpa!
OMG please get teh adddressss!!!~!!!111!!
I need to eat this! lol
Just look at that killer sauce!
This shop is located at 18, Jalan Emas, Taman Emas. But strangely the signboard for the house estate is called Taman Mas. This rojak stall is sandwiched between a handphone shop and a motorcycle repair shop.
I forgot to add, other than the conventional rojak, there is also mee rojak (actually its rebus mee then put on top of the rojak and pour the rojak sauce on it), mee goreng and kwey teow goreng.
You deliver some to me please. I love rojak.
Thanks tiger for the address! I have absolutely no idea of the names in BP at times
I shall try the mee goreng one of these days.
camemberu, all the best for next week!
Phillip, coincidentally I had finished posting on the swastika symbol, when I saw your picture of the rojak stall with two swastikas and the Hindu mantra “om’, so I took the liberty to use the photo. I hope you don’t mind for not informing you earlier.
I just had this for lunch.
meeky, no problem at all.

OMG i really miss Batu pahat Town…
do you know rojak&abc mamak at BP Bus Station?..Still operated??
This is definitely one of my absolute favourite food in BP!
So yummy, especially eaten on a lazy afternoon with ice tea. The crunchy prawn thingy and the sauce is just HEAVENLY!
Kevzz – I think if you could manage to smuggled the rojak sauce into the UK, you will probably eat it with everything you can lay your hands on. Let’s see…
Cesar Salad with rojak sauce?
Fish & Chips with Rojak sauce?
Pasta with Rojak sauce?
Yorkshire Puddng with rojack sauce?
Sheppard Pie with rojak sauce?
NY Bagels with rojak sauce?
I think the possibilities are endless
I have noticed that shop a few times before but why are there swastika on their signboard (the “nazi” cross)?
The swastika (Sanskrit svastika, “all is well”) is a cross with four arms of equal length, with the ends of each arm bent at a right angle. Sometimes dots are added between each arm.
The swastika is an ancient symbol found worldwide, but it is especially common in India. It can be seen in the art of the Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, Celts, Native Americans, and Persians as well Hindus, Jains and Buddhists.
The swastika’s Indian name comes the Sanskrit word svasti, meaning good fortune, luck and well being.
In Hinduism, the right-hand (clockwise) swastika is a symbol of the sun and the god Vishnu, while the left-hand (counterclockwise) swastika represents Kali and magic. The Buddhist swastika is almost always clockwise, while the swastika adopted by the Nazis (many of whom had occult interests) is counterclockwise.
In Buddhism, the swastika signifies auspiciousness and good fortune as well as the Buddha’s footprints and the Buddha’s heart. The swastika is said to contain the whole mind of the Buddha and can often be found imprinted on the chest, feet or palms of Buddha images. It is also the first of the 65 auspicious symbols on the footprint of the Buddha.
The swastika has also often been used to mark the beginning of Buddhist texts. In China and Japan, the Buddhist swastika was seen as a symbol of plurality, eternity, abundance, prosperity and long life.
The swastika is used as an auspicious mark on Buddhist temples and is especially common in Korea. It can often be seen on the decorative borders around paintings, altar cloths and banners. In Tibetan Buddhism, it is also used as a clothing decoration.
(So as you see, its a religious symbol, nothing to do with Nazism).
Tigersden, thanks a lot for your explanations, I appreciate! I don’t have any reason anymore to “ignore” this shop. You know, being European I am rather sensitive when it comes to Nazism but now knowing that there’s no link whatsoever makes me sigh with relief!
Another 3 months then time to balik kampung again – with another shop on my “must eat” list!
Her full name is M.DEVI or in Tamil is like MU.DHEVI we used to tease her to raise her temper during our memorable child hood school days. Yes, she was my co class mate from standard 4 to 6 when we studied in Tamil School JALAN PEGAWAI. The last time I met her was about 40 years ago. She is now 50 years old as me. A good girl whom I know with lots of courage to carry on this life. Please support her by frequently patronizing her shop.
Devi………….I miss you my friend. I will meet you soon.
