YOU MUST BE GO TO HERE
MALACCA
Many days went to Malacca city, here I want to share my travel tips.
There’s a dim sum stall at Jonker Walk with lots of people buying because they are quite cheap. Three pieces for RM1.50, or seven pieces for RM3. I was tempted and bought seven pieces to try.. not really nice lol. Quite salty.
Before we called it for the night, we walked to Jalan Ong Kim Wee from Jonker Walk for Ban Lee Hiang's famous Satay Celup. Can you believe for the whole time I studied in LIMKOKWING, I didn't teat or even seen Satay Celup before, lol. Pretty interesting stuff, it’s like Lok Lok but you are dipping into diluted satay sauce instead.

Just like its colorful history, Malacca cuisine is complex, with influences from the Chinese, Malay, Portuguese, Indian, Dutch and Siamese. Peranakan and Portuguese-Eurasian food for example, are the product of cross cultural marriage between local Malays and Chinese immigrants during 15th and 16th century, and between the Malays/Chinese/Indian and Portuguese during 16th and 17th century.
Malacca was awarded the World Heritage status just recently so it is aptly appropriate that we're now documenting the richness of the history of Malacca food.
You can trace most of the origins or influence of these food to the cultural influences of the immigrants or various past rich history of Malacca.
