Mmmmm how come the food guide didnt introduce the "Teo-chew" restaurant along jonker street ah? My family went there and had a wonderful seafood feast over there! Restaurant is ez to overlook cuz of its appearance... like a simple kopitiam with the cooking done in the front and only about 6 tables inside. But apparently some famous big names have dine there and their pictures are on the wall.... from Lee Kuan Yew, to Quek Leng Chai (forgive my spelling) and many more!!!! oh and did i mention that the restaurant has been there 4 more that 80+ yrs? (i think its 80+ yrs... i dun have the name card with me rite now to confirm it :P)
xiu long bao,
Looks like you're going to gain fat real soon eh? hahaha! But, life without food, really have nothing to look forward. So, just enjoy and eat!:)
Wahh...are you staying over? Can manage to sample all the goodies or not?? Never mind..those than can tar bau back,then you tar bau. Enjoy your Malacca trip!
there's a really good ikan bakar place at a malay kampung in malacca. fantastic grilled sotong & otak otak, served with nasi lemak. a local brought me there (opens for dinner only), but i dont know how to get there now :(. anyone out there who knows?
CSB:

You might wanna try the Hing Loong Taiwanese Noodle on Jln Bachang as well.
After this hectic Easter weekend, I wanna drive up to Ipoh and Penang to eat everything under the sun!!!
tankiasu:
taiwanese nudles...ok noted!(if i managed to locate jln bachang...hehe my sense of direction...sigh...kinda hopeless).
I wana go penang too...n drop by ipoh for some nudles...slurppp...too bad can't make it now...for the moment i'll get my cravings fixed @ malacca first!
I'm going there next week over the weekend. Don't forget to try the original Mille Crepe cake....At Nadese's (according to Jason Mumbles' blog, it's the best). He says it's located at Plaza Mahkota, near Costa Rica Hotel and OUB Bank. Hehe. I'm making sure that I go there and get a comparison with Sec 17 Food Foundry's.
do drop by this place selling rojak @ taman asean when you are in malacca! yummyy.....:D

wmw: Plaza Mahkota= Mahkota Parade? I read bout that post...Nardese only bakes one type of cake, ie Mille Crepe which really ignites my interest!!!
meiyen: where is taman asean? i only noe jonker street n mahkota parade in malacca :P
I'm absolutely agree with Jason on the outdated food guide you've downloaded from Txxxxxx-Mxxxxx.com :)
Too bad I'll be in Bangkok during this coming weekend, or else I can join Jason to be your "local guides" haha
By the way, you may visit AmazingMelaka.com for further information about Melaka ;)
Wahlau-eh. After Jason's dos & donts, your trip should be best or d best-lah! Wish I can tag along ..
jason:
OMG...this is the longest comment I have ever received. Seriously, thanks alot for the guide. U r such a good Malacca Ambassador. For the best chendol in town, as u mentioned, I think the kedai antik is the shop that i frequent whenever im travelling to malacca. Agree that it serves the best chendol :)
I dun think i will manage to savour all the delicacies rekomended by u in 2 days but then again, i'll revisit malacca soon just for ur guide ;p
tien soon:
halo there, aiyorr...im so outdated man...thx alot for the info! Will definitely stuff myself with the food rekomended by jason :)
tummythoz:
keep jason's guide for ur nxt visit to malacca la...i was really amazed by the list :O
Such comprehensive details on what to eat in Malacca! Wish you have a great makan trip there ;)
Must eats at Malacca is Donald and Lily Tan's Nyonya cendol just off the carpark at Jonker Street. Featured in the New York Times ok, so don't play play!
The teochew restaurant is also a must - such good food but you must book ahead.
xiu long bao,
I think you're not that "fat" gua... Just eat but don't forget exercise loh. No need to work out until that "fierce". haha!
DdddDDdddDDddrrrrrooooooOOOOoOoOoollllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll......

boo_licious: really??? nvr notice this famous chendol from the carpark. Noted!
OMG...since so many of u rekomend this low profile teochew restaurant, i hav no reasons not to try it out!
kok:
