Food to Try
Chicken Rice Ball
Available for breakfast as well as for lunch, the outlet that sells this dish at Jalan Hang
Jebat looks like the typical Hainanese chicken rice restaurant. The difference is not in the
chicken but in the rice, which comes in golf size round shaped balls. The popularity of this
creative change proves that it is definitely more delicious than the normal plain plate of
rice.
Satay Celup
A favourite among the locals, this dish is worth a try because the thick and spicy peanut
sauce is tasty and hot! Skewered pieces of raw meat, tofu, prawns, vegetables, and others
are dipped into a communal pot which contains the steaming sauce and left to cook for as
long as you like. When ready, just pick up the stick and consume it immediately. The
restaurant is located at Lorong Bukit Cina, Malacca.
Baba Nyonya Laksa & Cendol ( Perfect Match )
The famous shop selling this excellent combination for food enthusiasts is called 'Jonker
88'. It is decorated with archaeological artifacts displayed on the walls. They have the
normal curry laksa as well but most people go there for the nyonya variety. Their cendol
comes in 2 versions, plain or with durian.
One Bite Durian Puff
Another famous food stall in Jonker Street, this one having big posters hanging on the
exterior walls. As the name suggests, their durian puff has to be eaten in one bite because
the cream in the soft pastry will ooze out and cause a mess otherwise!
