Nyonya food..all also autar wan esp Donald & Lily. Dunno how those bloggers rate their food wan. Still eh chiak Nyonya fusion - Museum 88 nia QUOTE(vey99 @ Oct 6 2011, 10:37 AM) i edi download the 48 hour food hunt to word doc but some item will skip capitol sate - duwan stand on roadside to q. i rmb it was not so crowded in early 2000's de. ocien - srsly small oysters. not my liking. must try more portugese/nyonya variety , maybe search for best kapitan chiken. i think nyonya food not getting the highlight it deserved (also too much competition from penang nyonya foods) ah mix, nyonya food got what nice one? Added on October 6, 2011, 3:48 pmThe road side famous Indian cendol opposite Stadthuy/ clock tower - also over-rated..no need to try lah QUOTE(shyshy_gal @ Oct 6 2011, 01:11 PM) i don't like the o chien too.. but ppl queue for it also I don't understand got many many things we did not get to try.. like the tengkera early morning nasi lemak and duck noodle.. and the road side Indian cendol.. sell on tricycle one.. haih This post has been edited by stimix: Oct 6 2011, 03:48 PM

important thing to note while visiting Melaka - you can skip those with queues but you will end up eating anyway due to peer pressure.

as a fellow malaccan..i realise many (even malaccans) have poor knowledge on whereabouts of good food...this is my list...trust me...follow this list baba nyonya food - most of the "nyonya" restaurants along jalan melaka raya are all highly overrated...some used to be good..due to them catering to tourist...standards dropped A LOT...best baba nyonya food..."Amy"...fellow nyonya aunty Amy cooks some great baba nyonya food...highly authentic...she cooks herself...better book a place on weekends otherwise if lots of customers you're in for a long wait. Shop located at Jalan Melaka Raya. Same row with Alliance bank. First row of shophouses opposite Mahkota Hospital, same side as Century Mahkota Hotel. satay celup - one of my favourite things for supper, choose satay celup for the SAUCE...many will recommend "Capitol"...used to be good...but its shit nowadays...sauce watery and tasteless, go to Jalan Ong Kim Wee...another famous joint/joints..."Ban Lee Siang", they recently separated into two stores following a dispute between the brothers. Both are alright...much better than the "famous" capitol. Nyonya laksa - creamy broth, cockles and prawns on top. Best one I know of is at Pengkala Rama, directly opposite Putra Hospital and St. Peters Church at the adjacent side. Look out for a row of realllly old shophouses. Forgot the name but ask around...they are famous. Go early or risk a sellout. Pork satay - Kota laksamana beside the riverbank, famous but not generous. Small sticks of meat. There's a less well known, equally good or imo better one at Jln. Semabok. Beside a temple opposite Petronas. It's a small food court. Popiah - Authentic popiah with generous amounts of filling and PORK LARD. Famous joint at Jln. Bunga Raya still good. Not for people who dislike oily food. Nasi lemak - There's a very good one at Batu Berendam. Baba Nyonya owned. Opposite the fisheries department. Very small and dirty store. Who cares, the nasi lemak is fragrant. Eggs, kangkung and ikan bilis. All you need, no extra fillings. SAMBAL AMAZING!! Only in the morning. Durian Cendol - Screw the Jonker Street stalls and stores. Best one found at Jalan Melaka Raya. Row of shophouses opposite Fenix Inn. Restaurant known as "Jeta Groves". Amazing Durian Cendol. Owners are related to Baba actor Kenny who recently starred in Nasi Lemak 2.0. WanTan mee - Famous Malacca wantan mee is clear. Not dark. Can find good one at Jln. Bunga Raya. Shop just beside "famous" bunga raya orchien. They have a few branches. Another famous branch at Kampung Lapan. Corner shop opposite Tun Tuah highschool. "Shakey noodles" due to the owners habit of "shaking head" while cooking. It's a nerve problem actually. Crowded. Chicken Wings - KL's famous Jln. Alor chicken wings pale in comparison to these. Found in same shop as wan tan mee above at Kampung Lapan. Brought my KL friends here and they were impressed. Very crispy and BBQed to perfection.
There are too many joints serving nice food to post all here. Continue next time. =)
Don't try!! orchien/fried oyster - Malacca used to have good fried oyster. 10/20 years back?? Bunga Raya joint used to be very good according to my dad. The dad passed away and now run by his son. Changed the recipe. Now its shit. Seriously don't try Capitol Satay Celup, they are ruining Malacca's famous satay celup.
