Malacca's Round-About (we walked this area quite a number of times during our stay there)


Our 2nd Tourist Attraction-Jonker Walk


This is Jonker Walk-Almost like an eating street to me (ate at every 5 steps)

This is a MUST-TRY at Jonker Walk.



Gula-Melaka-Good on a hot sunny day.



Our Dinner @ Matkota Shopping Centre
We had our dinner at "The Chicken Rice Shop" which is actually a fast food resturant serving chicken rice. They offer chicken rice in a set whereby it comes with a plate of chicken, and rice as well as the vegs and soup.









Bao~Bao liao. Yx said that there is one outlet at Vivocity but the taste quite so~so and you could get more outside with the same amt of money paid.

Our Buffet Breakfast @ Equitorial Hotel Malacca
(7th Dec)

The spread was quite good,(international buffet breakfast) I must comment that the curry rendang was FABULOUS.I had two slices of bread just to go with it.it is a MUST try!


Xin had to had his fill before he is ready to start the day. Heh.











After our breakfast, it was time to set off again! I wanted to go to this shop called "Tan Kim Hock" which sells their local products like cuttlefish, "hong pia" and gula melaka which my mummy had reminded me to buy. We were there and bought quite a number of stuffs.

We had wanted to head back cos there were too much things to lug to our next destination- A place which serves Peranakan food.However, unfortunately,we lost our way so we had to seek help from "Four Seasons" hotel for directions.


That's me posing infront of the X'mas tree at Four Seasons hotel.


Peranakan Food @ Nancy's Kitchen (Jonker's Walk)


We are at Nancy's Kitchen, if you are there you will notice it is quite cosy.


We are now at Nancy's Kitchen (Jonker's Walk) which serves Peranakan food, strongly recommended by the Four Seasons Hotel staff. I must say the food was very good and valued for money.


Nyonya Popian



Udang Pedas


We had this prawns cooked with some nuts- it gives off a very distinct taste,quite tasty. A little like sambal.

My Favourite-Ayam Keluak

Slurp~Slurp, the taste is really good. It is quite authentic peranakan food so if you are into peranakan food like me, do head there.

He Piao Soup




Coffee House @Jonkers Walk

Our next stop was a small coffee house which serves egg tarts, cheese tarts. We each had one cheese tart and an egg tart each.

Portuguese Settlement for Dinner


Beautiful sunset



Unfortunately when we went near to the stalls at Portuguese settlement, touting took place. The hawkers started to swamed around us, asking us to patronise their stalls. Me and xin got cold feet and decided to flee the place. hehz. wasted our cab fare of $40 to and fro.

Finally decided!

My 25th Birthday Cake from Secret Recipe



8th Dec-Last Day at Malacca

We had buffet breakfast at the hotel again...but seeing the same food for the second time makes me don't feel like eating much already.

Anway to ensure that no time was wasted, we headed to the famous chicken rice ball stall at Jonker's Walk. There are quite a number of chicken rice ball stalls over there. So we just tried our luck and went to this...





Wat cute little rice balls they had. But between the both of us, we only ordered 3cos we wanted to eat more stuffs as well.

Our Next Stop-Gula Melaka's Stall



The Assam Laska!
This is the first time i had something like tat, and i really love the sour taste. And of course we had to order this for the last time.


Slacking @ Starbucks




Back in Singapore, we headed to Bugis Junction-Shanghai Xiao Long Bao for dinner!
