Malacca

Filed under: travel

Just had a 2-day trip to Malacca during my daughter’s 1-week school break.
It’s a small city , we used half day to go around those historical sites by our engaged taxi. Our driver, Mr. Cham Fook Onn, is very friendly. This is him:

Malacca is known for its traditional Baba (local born Chinese man) and Nyonyas (woman) culture Next is the famous Baba House Hotel,

Malacca is also famouse of its baba and nonya food. We spend sometime to find the good baba food restaurant. when we arrived only to find that it opened in 6pm, and so do the other 3 restaurants.

Our first meal in malacca is the same famous “chicken rise ball”, it cost me RM3.00 :
chicken rice ball

and Mr. Cham told us one of the two best chicken rice ball stalls. Both only open until 3pm. it’s very crowded everyday.

It’s a good place worth walking around with your camera, I am afraid we still missing some interesting places due to tough time. I wish to visit it again someday, not that rush….
