Chicken Rice Balls & Durian Cendol, Melaka


This is our first stop the moment we arrived Melaka. Our local 'tour guides' brought us here to try the chicken rice balls. I thought its the normal chicken rice and then with some chicken balls maybe. Guess not, its literal and we went "Oh ic ...." We are so used to rice in normal form in Penang, so we smashed them up to eat with the chicken but they ate it as it is. It was an experience but I still prefer feeling the grains of rice filling up my mouth. The balls are sort of clammy? Overall, it was not too bad, the chicken is nice.

Here we have The Four Musketeers taking us around while we are there for holiday. Nice friends Jesslyn has. Later in the evening, they took us to Jonker Walk and introduce to us the Durian Cendol. The shop is just at beside the entry to Jonker Walk. Lots of people throng the double storey shop, filled with not only the famous Durian Cendol but with arrays of biscuits and delicacies sold.

I'm not a big fan of cendol but this was rather interesting and if you are a fan of durian and cendol, you would want to try this. My friends would love to go back for more. Try it when you spend your holidays in Melaka.
Red beans are included too.

Capitol Satay Celup, Melaka


I must be out of this mind to wait for more than an hour for this. What can I say, I can't help it, I'm a tourist in Melaka and this is a famous restaurant serving satay celup. I left myself no choice but try it! So I did it, and it tasted delicious. It is a cross between Lok Lok and Satay. It does not have Satay like we normally do, but its Lok Lok varieties such as quail's egg, vegetable, cuttlefish, prawn, meatballs and fishballs, and even scallopis to be dipped into this hot-boiling-thick-nutty gravy as you can see here.
The server comes to the table a few times to add more gravy and stirs for us now and then. It is thick like Satay sauce but it has its unique taste which is why people are lining up hours for it.

Friends who are enthusiastic with their food and soya bean drink!Yums!!
Will you be at the end of this line?
