Thank you!! If sucessful then must invite all of you to my wedding reception!! Haha!1


Thanks mokhzaini, but i prefer to have it in a restaurant as it is more formal and it gives better atmoshere. Summore it is safer... But thank you for your suggestion!

interesting thread... after going so many times to Melaka, i never knew there are romantic places there...

but Hotel wise, i'll recommend Holiday Inn, new and ask for the one facing the lake/sea
pricey though... cost me RM300nett per night on a weekend...

just went there last week.

tried:

-baba laksa and nyonya laksa in Jonker street
baba taste like curry, nyonya taste like asam laksa. both with tuna. baba is great, not like normal curry laksa while nyonya laksa is sour.
4/5

-chicken rice ball. corner of Jonker street
rice is nice, i ate 8 of it. haha.. but my friends dun really like it. chicken is ok
3.5/5

-satay celup. bee chan heong/ man li heong? forgot the name.
ok ok only. just like lok lok lo. u celup what ever u want inside the kacang sauce.
i found it very dirty. cuz they dun change the sauce after each customer. they just top up. customer tend to celup again after gigit 1 bite.
taste also normal. famous but not the best. i prefer traditional lukluk.
2.5/5

u shud go to ITALY cake house or bakery, i dunno la but it's bakery shop..

n u try their Egg Tart...very gud 1 compare with others bakery shop that sell egg tart..and muarh juz RM1.30..buy 5 free 1...hehe...

very easy to find ITALY bakery since it very famous in mlka...got one in melaka raya, near to PURE BAR (club)...in cheng oso got, n bachang too...

Not all the sate Celup in Melaka are nice. Not sure where is the locationj of the two u mentioned.. There are only 2 famous Satay Celup in Melaka i.e:

1) Capitol (At Banda Kaba)
2) Ban Lee Siang? - (Jln Ong Kim Wee)

Others so-so only & the pricing of this unique (Although looks dirty for some) is much cheaper than crazy lok-lok pricing in KL!

They even opened 1 in Mahkota Parade (Closed down) & another one in Cheras KL but failed too!

The famous & nice one and voted as one o fthe top 3 Chicken rice in Malaysia by MIX FM long time ago is Chung Wah at the corner lot shop facing Stathuy buiding..

Maybe you are true Stimix because I didnt taste rice ball and stay celup myself because it was non halal. I just gather info from my Chinese friend.

Haha...I thought of that also...u must hv been mislead since u'r muslim... BTW, u should recommend some nice halal food too..I believe there are lotsa halal nice food such as Ikan Bakar in Umbai/Serkam, Roti John at Tg Keling...Wah dunno still available..I always goto the one near Pantai Kundor when I was young (Secondary schooll..sumore cycling from Melaka town )

Hi,

For those who've been to melaka or better still..from melaka...can i ask...which of these 2 hotels are nearer to the town area i.e. jonker street, a famosa..

1. Semabok Inn http://www.semabokinn.com/location.html
2. Yellow Mansion Hotel http://www.yellowmansion.com.my/

My fren and i are driving there from KL and these are the hotels that still got room. But we duno which one is nearer to town. Thanks!

2. Yellow Mansion Hotel is nearer, please refer to the map here -> http://www.yellowmansion.com.my/map.html

It's walking distance to those Jonker Street

Hi there!
Can I check with you what is the GPS Coordinates for Ikan Bakar Umbai? I have Garmin GPS. You mentioned that it is already in V2.27 Map. Where can I find this map? I am new to this site...
Thanks,
Mel

For Ikan Bakar Umbai, just go to old Umbai and straight to the end of the road. Thats the best Ikan Bakar there. For the roti John you have mention, yes they still operating. Barkat Roti John and Ayam Golek. I will updating the GPS position soon.

food i eat in Melaka.

cendol- Jln Tengkera, under a big old tree beside a field. its on your right if u go from the town. (food here not very good, cendol is superb!)

Fried Carrot Cake - also Jln Tengkera. by the roadside. only can tapau.

Fried Mamak Noodles. - also Jln Tengkera, between the carrot cake stall and cendol

Duck Mee - Bkt Beruang. corner shop. next to a photo shop and a clinic.

Satay Celup is a big NO NO for me. sigh.. no offence to mlk people. but i see locals bite and CELUP BACK into the sauce! and they never wash the pots. they recycle the satay sticks! sigh...

Hehe...Not only u but lotsa ppl outside Melaka view the same..thus it's a failure trying to introduce satay celup in KL, I've seen 2 failure so far in KL. One way back in mid 90', 1 shop failed in Taipan USJ & another in early 2000 at Taipan 2, USJ ...also failed.. ...The one really successful in KL is the Fatty steamboat...now becoming franchise business oledi...Every Luk-luk van, sure there is a Soya Bean van ..just like Indian rojak...Rojak Van+ Cendol..

Fatty Steamboat was halal or not ar?

No-lah Non halal..sorry bro...but there are Malay satay celup /Lok-lok stalls as well in Klang Valley Pasar Malam..

Haizz....That steamboat very tempting but all are non halal . Do you know which Pasar Mlm?

go Bukit Beruang to try the Vietnamese cuisine located at the row of MMU Corner...not bad...especially the chicken wings
