Melaka getaway part 2!
After settling down, we intended to have satay celup for dinner. Satay celup is very much similar to steamboat, however, the raw food is placed on a skewer and is cooked using boiling satay sauce. Sounds good? However, it has been said that the very same sauce you're dipping in has been reused over and over again :S so under uncle David's recommendation, we went to a seafood restaurant run by a friend of his.
Sissy, me and grandma
Following two shots brought to you by yours truly
This place subconciously reminds me of The Shore in Singapore which definitely serves much better food!
Jump!
Jump jump!
jump jump jump!
And get all tangled up! Hahas! Choreographed by sissy! Ohman. I look so spastic!
Love this! Love you more sissy!
Somemore shots of the surrounding
Food time! Food glorious food~
Nasi lemak
Veggie!
Black pepper crab
Oh there was another dish, Asam fish which we forgot to take pic of it! That dish was super good! Thick sauce with promfert!
BBQ prawns. They still retain the natural flavour as no seasoning was use. Very good!
Last dish, lobster! But it was badly done. Very hard meat! The waiter was talking nonsense! He said that lobster's meat is very hard! Nonsense! He think we all nvr eat lobster before-.-
Next we proceeded to jonker walk of Melaka. Very much like Singapore's pasar malam, just a much bigger one with more varieties.
We pass by a baba hse while walking towards jonker walk and went in as daddy and mummy wanted to enquire about their prices
I find the make of the shoes are so exquisite!
Jonker walk
Next station, night cruise. It's a 45min boat ride along the small river which flows across the sites of attraction in Melaka. Really boring though cus it was a to and fro trip and the music they played was seriously annoying...
The kinda 'cruise' they had

Wall murals!
Well, that marks the end of day one in Melaka.
Day two, 2 may
We left the hotel about 10 to have a morning walk at the jetty infront of Holiday Inn
Dad and mum with the really nice mosque behind.
My uncle then came down from
His hotel to bring us to his room
Where the view there was definitely much better!
The long stretch is the jetty
Next stop... SHOPPING!!! YAYYYYY!!!!
oh but before that we had lunch in the shopping centre. Some hong kong cafe which serves really good food! No regrets!(: one of the dish I liked best and the most unique was the fried cheong fun! Yes, it's like the normal chee cheong fun but cooked in the oyster omelette style. Sedap!!
The girls (mummy, sissy and I) went shopping around while daddy and grandma went for massage and darren went to do his work as his exams are this week! Hahas...
One can get really good deals here as there are sales going on or their items are plain cheap! Sissy and I got a adidas tank each. My second one from Malaysia! Hahas. And mummy got a blouse at SGD 22! Extremely good material!
After shopping, we head on for dinner at 'Coconut House'. This humble eatery was the place many of my extended family members love. Well-known for their pizza and rustic ambience.
While walking there, we took pic near the night cruise my family and I took on the first day
