1 - overrated, always crowded
2 - overrated, always crowded
3 - never tried as I'm old
4 - management dispute, products not as good as before. original chef started own business http://humblebeginnings.com.my/
5 - good if you can stand the environment, not advisable to eat too much
6 - nothing special for me
7 - yes, this is good
8 - never tried as I'm old
9 - always crowded, and it's a hell to go on weekends because it's at Jonker Walk. Just an open-air pub.
10 - nothing special for me, as it's just a durian-flavored puff
11 - always crowded, the wait time for the laksa can be atrocious and not worth it, the desert is not unique

longkang siham

Where is burger maut

Where is kopi maut

List invalid

also where is ayam golek bukit baru and tanjung puteri

bro, where's the ikan bakar?

where is got nice oyster fried egg???

All makanan con tourist

now i dunno lor fast or not.

ikan bakar at SERKAM or UMBAI area lor. haha

same area? which one better? noon open? i'm going again this weekend

both only open at night (around 6 open de i think)
umbai is overrated place. where every tom d*** n harry go.
serkam is about 10-15mins away from umbai,
most local people come to umbai. makan itu ikan bakar dengan nasi lemak yo!
sizzling nais.

serkam dont have much variety.
while umbai got alot of seafood variety
u pick pick.

if go to umbai, u gota go to the first stall.
they put all the seafood on the perahu shape.
gooding, but the nasi lemak not nais. better take normal rice.

if go to serkam, u gota go across the bridge one. then go to the inside back shop.
nasi lemak gooding.

My review

1) Capital Satay Celup - Over rated. small piece but expensive. Taste wise, Fat One satay celup in KL taste better

2) 中华茶室海南鸡饭 - Hainnan Chicken Rice - Except the fact the rice is rounded, there's no difference than KL chicken rice. KL one taste better

3) Big Bowl Ice - Never tried

4) Nadeje Cake Shop - PJ also got. But its only special cos its crepe cake. Among so many crepe cake, i say Nadeje is the better ones

5) Longkang Siham - eat here for the ambiance only lo. Foreigners never squat near longkang and eat before ma.

6) Bunga Raya Popiah Never tried

7) 新味香沙爹屋 - Sun May Hiong Satay House Never tried

8) “鸡蛋” 冰

9) Geographer Café - Sigh..........for name's sake only

10) 榴莲泡芙 Never tried

11) Jonker 88 Never tried

Capitol?

Too overrated..

siham from longkang.

11 Overrated Melaka Food

thanks bro!

seems like Serkam better nasi lemak! how about ikan bakar?

i no need variety, just want naise one

melaka again ? ... lolz...went there twice already feel boring...just like genting only

Any list of really good food in Melaka? Not the usual long q and cheat tourist food.

as for me. serkam better.
price oso ok.
less people, more local.
so u say leh?
hehehe

u go search for SERKAM IKAN BAKAR (you'll be passing by a housing area) then u have to go cross a small bridge.
then sampai already. there's only 2 stall after the bridge (in a food court area type). go to the inside ones.
ask for sambal lebih and just take the ikan bakar only. no need masak sweetsour or whatever.
the fish all fresh ma as ure sitting along the canal.

they have; sotong, udang, ketam, ikan, kerang and siput buluh.

how old are you, uncle?

Melaka food boring
Makanan nyonya mak aku masak plg sodap !

As a Malaccan now staying somewhere else, I always have a list of food to eat when I go back home town. It's like a few places to eat, not necessarily the best but more of nostalgia, convenience and good food.

Satay celup I normally frequent "McQuek's Satay Celup" since it's never crowded and the place is clean and not stuffy. Gravy may not be as good as the best but still very tasty and I normally order fresh gravy anyway instead of re-using the old on which is tastier...if you get what I mean. Kids can run around the large compound so that's a plus for big family gathering.

Satay babi with the famous gravy in Kota Laksamana is my other favourite, aka Sun May Hiong Satay. Expensive but damn tasty, goes well with beer.

Assam Pedas Claypot in Kota Laksamana aka "Ana Asam pedas" was previously not famous but ever since they switched to claypot, stuff got really good. Place is always crowded at night, open air malay stall. Nice lepak place after drinks at pub. Serve all kinds of other food as well, their roti tampal was divine last time.

Assam Pedas Hajjah Mona also in Kota Laksamana opposite the new hotel. Was previously the most famous Asam Pedas in MLK, aka "Assam Spande" because of its sourness lol. Used to serve the lorry men and kuli's of the old wholesale market, famous from then and now still popular and crowded.

Curry Keluak in one of those Nyonya restaurants. Nowadays hard to find a nice one. Portuguese Settlement might find one but now not sure. Damn I love keluak. Niche food not for everyone, you either like it or hate it for its bitterness.

Hee Kiau (kuay teow sup) in Tengkera opposite the Badminton Hall (open only weekends) AKA "ajinomoto hee kiow". For your weekly aji fix. The keropok added into the soup makes all the difference.

Yong Tau Foo stall for break fast at Siang Malam coffeeshop near Sri Ambaji Temple at Bukit China. This is in Siang Malam kopitiam, not the one opposite the temple as that one sucks. Fresh fishball, best tasty taukee, great tasty chilli paste hnnnnggggg. I absolutely love their tau kee and brinjal.

Beef Noodles near Bukit China roundabout. This one is Halal chinese shop and the broth is beefy but clear as it can get. If you love spare parts, or just plain tasty and "heaty" soup on a cold day. This one is good.

Mee rebus (with kuah rojak) at Ming Huat Kopitiam in Ujong Pasir. Opposite the entrance of Portuguese settlement, mee rebus kuah is just nice texture, not thick or slimy. Ask to add a bit of their rojak gravy for a little sweetness for best effect. Used to gobble this 3x a week when was young. Expect to wait long though on weekends, lots of tourist are catching on... so most of the time by lunch time sudah habis.


There are others of course but not really in a list.

Ikan Bakar at Umbai is always nice, just stick to their baked fish (ikan bakar), their other cooking style like tiga rasa, kicap etc just very normal. Always ordered fish and happy with it, order anything else or cooked any other way, I am normally not impressed.

Coconut milkshake kind of normal la, to me nothing special even as Malaccan. Give me fresh coconut anytime.

Nyonya food nowadays very touristy. It's nice but portion small and expensive.

Nadeje cake shop overrated. I think more hype than actual taste. Sure it taste good, so is Secret Recipe cake.

Longkang siham in Bunga Raya long time never eat. This place is a classic and sooner or later will be gone. Definitely a place where really how people used to eat their supper. More for couples and friends, not for family.

wau! so long.

last time went malaka,
first time eat such raw siham..
eat 2 or 3 feel like puke

perception

Overrated

It ain't MLK longkang siham unless it still bleeds when you bite into it. It's not even rebus or cooked, more like 5 seconds in boiling water. #YOLO

Penang and kl folks are laughing at your standard

I know right, my mom been eating this shit her whole life, i wonder when she will die with hepatitis B or maybe she immuned liao.

it still bleeds..
literally eating blood worse than girl siham

coming from Penang, Chai Leng Park Lok lok taste better.

#hipster #penanglang #lansi

Girl siham don't bleed means you doing it wrong... jk jk

Yeah the longkang siham normally still bloody one. Unlike the Malay shops kerang rebus is really rebus until looks kecut and a bit rubbery.

MLK longkang siham, it's bloody, taste like flesh and it goes well with the chili gravy. Damn I miss the taste. Sometimes when you eat, the blood can splurt out if your mouth not closed properly and you chew it. Damn awesome. Eat this, togok one Guinness and you're ready to go.

Parking 1st, later survey

Lol this is true. Taste of Ajinomoto only but the prawn cracker damn syok

anyone get diarrhea after eating siham with blood?

heard from one of the doctor before eat too much of this can easily get h-pylori in our stomach system.

the bunga raya popiah is getting more and more expensive!!

Mana umbai seafood

cendol..

near the river..
opposite hard rock cafe..
next to the clock tower..

Kecian 11 only, meanwhile 1111 must eat Penang food

gula melaka?

locals dont go to these places la.

for siham, go for Hock Chin @ taman Merdeka

Chilli meehoon - durian tunggal, opens during the day. old aunty fries the mee hoon with cili padi using charcoal stove. gooding.

and Pak Putra... Penang Kapitan's naan and tandoori is nth compared to Pak Putra's

where is batu berendam char siu fan?

rm4 for a regular sized popiah...

no handsome crab means that list sucks liao

no aunty koh cendol also means crap list liao

Dang. Longkang SIham

longkang??! clean or not?
spa siham can?

Hepatitis needs siham (or any bivalve molluscan) in its lifecyle


Siham --> Human --> Vera in the river--> Siham

go eat Cheng's Satay Celup more gooding la
