Recommendations

"The star attraction of this bakery is their delicious banana cake which is fragrant, fluffy and moist in texture. Furthermore with no artificial flavouring or essences added, it also makes the cake feel less greasy and dense."
"Line up for the banana bread at Hiap Joo Bakery and Biscuit Factory."
"Operating since 1919, Hiap Joo Bakery & Biscuit 协裕 still uses the wood-fired traditional method to bake their banana cakes. A family-run business, their banana cakes are mildly sweet and extremely fragrant, moist, and definitely deserve a mention."
"Be sure to get a bite of their gloriously soft and fragrant banana cake before you leave."
"Most Johoreans would tell you that the signature banana cake at Hiap Joo is the best! Here, the cake is freshly baked using traditional wood fire but managed to deliver moist and spongy texture with a banana aroma that hits just the right spot!"
"We love how the cake is slightly crisp on the outside, yet soft and moist inside. It was definitely one of the best banana cakes we ever had."
"The brown crust aside, everything is nice and spongy with a natural sweetness that lingers after you finish a bite. The banana bread is moist but not oily, and soft and crumbly."
"With the sort of crowd frequenting the little bakery, it's probable to assume the banana bread barely last for hours, eaten while hot, fragrant and moist."
"Their very own banana bread has a distinct taste in it because they bake it traditionally, meaning they use woods which give the bread a unique taste, also making the top of the bread golden brown. To add to that, the texture of the bread is super moist and the sweetness is just right."
"I've been going back several times to get my/family's cravings fixed and they still taste as good as ever. A must go visit for all you banana cake lovers!!"
