Melaka One Day Trip (Part 1)

Melaka, a tourist attraction spot for historic building and story. But for me, definitely not to miss out the food part. My sister had been a fans of Melaka, not to mention her N times visit to Melaka only for food hunt and with her past experiences and review, I get to eat the best food in Melaka. One day is never enough for all the food, hoping for another one. *greedy*

Our first stop, nyonya cuisine! When Malaysian talk about Melaka, baba nyonya will be the first that hit their mind. Their food and clothing are different. You can find plenty of these in Melaka, enjoy the uniqueness of it.

We first went to Amy Heritage Nyonya Cuisine but it's fully book. Our trip is on a weekday so I advice you to better make a reservation to avoid disappointment. We actually went to a few more restaurant and it's all close. So we by chance drive pass Nancy's Kitchen and were more than excited seeing it open (they actually closed on Tuesday) and only we realized they operate on a school holiday week. Below are the food we ordered, all in small portion.

Soursop juice (RM4.50)

Pork Pongteh (RM15)

Curry chicken (RM15)

Fried egg sambal belacan (RM10)

Vege (RM8)

Steam rice for 5 (RM7.50)

The drinks is a little too sweet for us but the food is good, definitely worth a try. Aunt love the pork pongteh, their sauce is unique. Curry chicken together with the santan, I personally love it. Their fried egg sambal belacan, the sambal belacan is the bomb. And the bill come with total of RM81.80, not expensive really.

Next we visit this nyonya kuih shop, Baba Charlie. They sell lots of kuih, so colourful with santan, stick rice, shredded coconut, etc. Apart from kuih, they do sell rice, mee, pie tea cup, etc. but we are too full for that, maybe next time.

Here's a show of how colorful the kuih is. We actually ended up buying most of it. As the seller say the kuih can be store up to 3 days in the refrigerator. We ended up eating all the kuih the other day anyway.

This is actually their famous durian apam balik but me and my aunts don't really favor this, too much of flour and no filing :(

This is good! Their santan and gula melaka in it.

This is unique you got to try.

Our trip continue with sightseeing of christ church which is the symbolic red house of Malacca. All the building here is painted with red paint, so beautiful for some instagram worthy photo, should have shoot more photo here. Aunt always ended up buying something while we walking through the stall.

After walking under hot sun, something cooling is indeed needed. Here we come for the famous coconut shake. It's crowded with people but the order come very fast, thumb up for their service. The drink was so so for me but sister and her friend like it very much, their must visit drink. We later order some side dish, not bad lar but pricey (compared to KL).

Coconut shake with ice cream (RM2.40)

Lekor (3 for RM1)

Nasi lemak (RM1.40)

Did bought some cake back too, this is from Yeast Pastry House located beside Nancy's Kitchen. Nice but pricey at the same time, can have a try if you love swiss roll.

Yam pudding swiss roll (RM12.50)

Black sesame swiss roll (RM9.50)

Cream cheese cake - Winter Magma (RM13)

This is good! They have samplings for you to try before you buy it. They also have a little small corner for you to have your high tea.

This post concluded what we did in the day, will be posting another one on what we did at night (basically more eating).
