tested the food there, taste ok but too expensive and charged service tax 10% + gov tax 5%!

I mean Simply Fish at Melaka Raya. BTW, where is city famous, selling what? I've never heard b4...

ya, u will think to try ice cream or cold drinks there coz too hot liao when inside the stalls.

i like handcraft items especially related to buddha coz my house theme is zen + balineese style, need this type of deco.

we went silom market, lots of thing there but too expensive la compare to CTC.

we went papong to see tiger show, they told us no entry fee, just charge drinks but when went into there, they charge drinks for the girls plus tax ++, per person is RM100+, luckily I kept my money in pocket & left around RM100 in wallet, so show them my wallet, & luckily got 1 thai who can speak chinese sit beside us, he help to translate & they took my Rm100 for 2 persons. See naked girls play balloons, waited more than 30 minutes still no "couple show" so went off.

next time must watch pondan show & "men" show, my friend said all naked men perform on stage, never seen b4 but dunno bangkok got or not coz my frenz watch in pattaya.

ya lo, some chicken rice balls are bad taste, u must get the good taste one. Got one Lian Jie was introduced by Ho Chak one quite nice & very cheap, u shld try

not he ji, he ji has big shop in jonker walk, the 1 i said is Lian Jie (sister Lian), she has only a small stall at hawker centre beside ping ming primary school at jln taming sari (pengkalan rama). if u r melaccan, u shld try once, she only sells from morning dunno what time until noon, sometimes i passed by at 1pm she already sold out.

ya, under big tree & the hawker looks old. I didn't know when she started there but i oso didn;t notice her stall until i watched Ho Chak few months ago but most of my friends know it, looks like i a bit sua ku

Added on October 29, 2009, 11:01 pmsumimase my fault...ya that area is not for tourist coz tourists must buy expensive & ave taste foods at he ji or ku chen (lousy 1), cheap & nice foods is for local people only, sorry to say that coz everything selling at tourist's hot spots are expensive

lian jie one per person is RM3.30, that day 5 of us went there, plus drinks only RM20+

we went he ji & ku chen when my relative came last time, 10 of us cost almost Rm200. ki siao one

another cheap & nice one at melaka baru, sell in a shop lot. but i need to find out the name & road 1st if u 1 2 know coz i went there oso turn & turn until I stumble upon it

ya, strongly agreed with your comments about the 3 famous tourist chicken rice ball shops. Ku chen is the lousiet one especially the one near Renaisaune (dunno how to spell, it was Ramada, old name), i went there with my relative who has few restaurants in Alor Setar, that day we got the rice balls look like overnight one coz got one layer "thick skin" on the rice balls, and my relative told me the chicken is not fresh, i just know the chicken not nice but he said he can differenciate fresh but not nice or not fresh and not nice, and still dare to charge us expensive, kanasai!

Wilson chichen rice nothing special la...only the name scared ppl. The Melaka Brau chicken rice ball which I mentioned in my reply above, cheap one, is near to Wilson melaka baru but different row, that day we wanted to eat at the chicken rice ball but closed then we eat at Wilson, so very near only.

ya, those who tested and tasted the chicken rice ball at melaka baru sure will agree with u, nice & cheap, i think is the cheapest in melaka. but lunch hours always full, my lunch hour only 30 minutes, so tak sempat wait!

Added on November 1, 2009, 9:17 pmi need to go back office ask my colleague its shop name & address, if u come to melaka, enter Ayer Keroh, u can reach there 1st, it is nearer than jonker walk or melaka town. but still need to give u the exact location. Since soonlee33 is staying there, maybe he can help

Makko was nice but since they changed the chef, the taste out liao.

ya, dun come during CNY coz everything charge extra, not worth. come after CNY then u can save some money & not so crowded.

1. He Ji - ok lah but expensive, Lian Jie & Melaka baru 1 is better & cheaper.

2. ya, it's capitol, i oso think it is nicest in melaka but getting expensive & long queue. I always laugh at them when they queue at roadside to wait for seat, likw got free makan. so melaka ppl dun line up there 1 coz very pai shei if frenz saw us queue that, sure kena laugh like nobody's business. Tips: go at 5:30pm & b4 6pm, u dun need to queue.

3. That one very famous but never try coz hv to wait very long. as long as kena wait, i will never try coz i m not paying money to queue, no matter how nice is the food, as long as need to queue, then sorry la. Anyway, Hong Hai (no.7 or No.9 forgot liao) in Bandar Hilir is very nice, some pple said is nicer than Bunga Raya 1, who is quite lan si oso.

4. the one behind the old capitol theater, at lorong, ok but a lot of rats there.

5. Popiah infront mdm king not bad.

6. wan tan me at Da San Yuan at Bkt Cina is nice, sell at night only.

suggestions:

1. western food at wok & pan at melaka raya not bad especially the pork burger. the chef was working in Renaisance hotel b4.
2. fried chilli meehoon near durian tunggal in one old kopitiam is nice, chilli very hot. sell in noon but night time not sure.

ya, that 1 really hot like nobody's business, my fren always request tambah chilli, really xiao. for those who like spicy shldn't miss it. but i long time didnt try liao.

Added on November 6, 2009, 2:25 pmthat 1 i never tried b4...ya i know kolo me, when i was a kid we used to call wantan mee as kolo mee too, sweet memory

Added on November 6, 2009, 2:29 pmya, that 1 oso quite famous sometimes ago but i dunno whether it is still famous coz almost 10 yrs never tried liao...

when talk about bunga raya, the roasted pork rice (sho ba pen) at lorong (same place with oh zian) also very famous, sell at day time only, oso many yers never tried lioa. hard to get parking at day time in bunga raya, this is why seldom go there liao coz very jamp.

i m going for dinner tonight to celebrate my birthday (in melaka), any good suggestion for me? if no suggestion, i think i will go wok & pan for western food coz i love western food

Added on November 8, 2009, 5:10 pmthat 1 expesive la, i stayed nearby there for 30+years b4 i moved 2 years ago, that side for tourist, ketuk kuat la

I suggest near Crystal Bay 1, 1st stall, cheap & nice and can ask for discount but i dunno that one is serkam or not, just know is need to pass thru the arc of crystal bay.

Added on November 8, 2009, 5:17 pmthere is one shop quite nice but too expensive, not worth. go malay stall near crystal bay is better, trust me la...

I stayed near Portugeese settlement more than 30 yrs, my old house is walking distance to that kampung serani, when they have st pedro celebration, my house can hear when they play the music, very near, right?

Added on November 9, 2009, 11:51 amif you know ujong pasir or portugese settlement then u shld able to go crystal bay. there is only one main road for ujong pasir, u need to turn right to portugese settlement but to go crystal bay, u dun turn, just go straight, u will reach a traffic light, go straight, u will reach a small bridge, this is the junction to Medan Ikan Bakar Duyung, dun turn, go straight until u reach the T-junction traffic light, turn to right & keep right, until u see an "arc" written Crystal Bay on your right, turn into there & go straight, there is residential areas, turn to the first right junction and go until the end then u can see many stalls there liao, clear or not

Added on November 9, 2009, 11:58 amya, u got the place but map hard to read la, u recheck my "direction" above, correct it if got mistake so that our frenz here can try nice & cheap ikan bakar. their fried sotong oso nice. u can try ikan tiga rasa, very nice too. Otak-otak is ok, not so special but not so bad. u can try udang panggang, not bad oso

Added on November 9, 2009, 12:01 pmthe one near junction one, right? last time a small stall now became big warong. They start during lunch, a lot of choices but feel the location is very dusty coz heavy traffic but dun care la, wont die one
