SHE & HE: malacca one-day trip

i woke up early in the morning at 6am, get ready for a journey to malacca by car with friends at 7pm. i was sleepy and yet, excited for foodie~! everyone knows that malacca is a great place for food and i have not really been there except when i was young, so i better be excited! and fatty told me that it's gonna be very hot over there and asked me to wear shorts. luckily i insisted to wear jeans, or else, i m even darker by now. my friend is even more cautious than me, she brought sun block as well. girls are like that. haha.

so we drove off and reached malacca in one and half hour time. super speed car, driver is professional too.

happy fatty. he was in-charge of directing location in malacca. and did research somemore ~! all the information were printed out. so so professional. good boy.

he's the professional driver with the speedy car

two girls. i m the most useless one. she did research too, a practical information provider cos she'd been to malacca!

jonker street

chicken rice balls @ Chong Wah kopitiam. old shop located right at the beginning of jonker street. i like it. we tried another chicken rice balls futher down on jonker street.

the chicken rice balls @ hoe kee restaurant. there are more visitors here. both is good. we ate chicken rice balls for second time cos it's simply irresistable. must try.

next food, teochew's porridge @ Loong Fatt. it was still early when we reached there so there wasnt many choices for us to choose. the fish is very soft, can swallow the whole body one, according to the tauke.

we didnt plan to wear the same colour shirt one.

we trying to snap the mahokota parade behind

dataran pahlawan, just opposite of mahkota parade

menara taming sari near mahkota parade and dataran pahlawan (within walking distance)

the taming sari tower is just like the kl tower. it's 360 degree revolving and provide a panaromic view of malacca city. i spotted many historical sites up there. the ticket cost us RM 10 and the ride was 7 minutes. quite expensive. but since we were in malacca and so, why not? =)

after shopping @ mahkota parade and dataran pahlawan, we went for pork satay! delicious! i love it.

pork satay @ sun may hiong. the pork satay is tiny. but seriously, not bad ~! the white colour thingy is the rice. why do they like to shape the rice in many ways?haha..

next, we went to eat durian cendol, the famous cendol in malacca. and also, the curry laksa and asam laksa, they are all great. the place is jonker88 dessert.

the asam laksa, thumbs up

the curry laksa, strong coconut milk.

after eating so many times of food, we finally felt the fullness in our stomach. so we went for a walk @ jonker street. the weather was super super hot! beh tahan~ i was sweating crazily.

the clothes @ jonker gallery. i already captured the photo before i realised i was not supposed to take photos in the shop. sorry~ anyway, i captured =D

the weather was crazily hot. so we decided to stay in the car. haha..no la, we were in the car, but were discussing on where to go next. so the guys did all the searching using iPhone and GPS. so convenient. we lost ourselves in the city for many times,were rounding around the city. but overall, we managed to tried most food in our list. haha. proud~

we headed to the seaside for the ikan bakar and nasi lemak. we tried the seafood as well. not to say very good.

the nasi lemak, just the plain rice inside. very small only. no doubt, it tastes good ! really. one person can eat up to 3 packets.

fried sotong with salted egg

the ikan bakar

tomato-sauced fish

sambal prawn

after the ikan bakar, the time was 6pm, so we went for another famous kuih of malacca, putu piring. i really wanted to eat putu piring since i watched the advertising on tv. ah xian was introducing this malacca kuih through astro. i even asked fatty to get that for me that time. haha, putu piring has been prioritized by fatty in his food list as a "MUST GO" place. he managed to find the location. it was actually a house. it took them 30 min to find the place. we girls were sleeping behind. guilty gila.

this is putu piring with gula melaka in it.

we were the first customer! they open at 6.30pm. yea each putu piring cost 80 cents. the boss and his wife are baba nyonya! they can speak many languages. and most improtantly, they are kind and friendly.

we ordered 50 pcs of putu piring from them. haha! too many? not really. bring back home for sharing! because it's either NOW, or NEVER. couldnt find in KL.
