Wait a minute, isn't Melaka a heritage cuisine paradise? How does a bakery cafe come upwards inward hand with the residual of the eateries? Hmmm...I also can't explicate it but this was based on my personal assessment as well as also the overall reactions from my beau traveling buddies. This identify indeed made the best impression with the rest, it is a Must Try!
This identify is famous for its queues, they cause got separate queues for Dine inward & Takeaway |
There are several outlets inward Melaka as well as nosotros picked the Mahkota Parade outlet equally its location fits inward our Day 2 sightseeing itinerary. We arrived only slightly earlier 12 noon on a Sabbatum as well as at that spot isn't whatsoever queue exterior the shop. We were speedily ushered inward to a cozy corner where nosotros settled downward as well as banking concern check out their menus. We placed lodge for drinks as well as also 4 slices of Mille Crepe cakes for sharing.
I had the Cranberry Yakult drink which has a squeamish mix of fruity sweetness as well as a hint of sourness from the yogurt drink, quite nice.

The cakes were heavenly! They were soft, smooth, rich as well as creamy all at the same time. The sparse layers of crepe & cream were tardily to cutting through using a fork (unlike some lousy ones I had inward SG), extremely good made. Despite beingness total of cream, the cakes were lite as well as airy, as well as weren't cloying at all. My personal fave was the Double Chocolate, with black chocolate cream as well as crunchy chocolate chips inside the layers, it was a double thumbs upwards from me!
We wiped out the 4 slices inward less than 5mins. So nosotros ordered some other ii to a greater extent than slices, Double Chocolate and Strawberry Chocolate. The Strawberry Chocolate was non equally yummy equally Double Chocolate though.
All flavors (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) are priced at RM11.90 per piece ( SGD4.40). If you're to a greater extent than or less the vicinity as well as cause got a sweetness tooth, produce give this identify a try! More photos here.

#2 Capitol Satay Celup
The sec must endeavour makan identify for our Melaka trip is Capitol Satay Celup, this identify is good known for its notoriously long queues. They cause got adjusted their opening hours from 5pm to equally early on equally 4pm for dinner time, thus the early on birds could start eating at in ane lawsuit instead of hanging to a greater extent than or less at the door at 4pm.
We got at that spot at to a greater extent than or less 4.20pm, the store was already opened with three tables occupied (total 8-9 tables), as well as nosotros got seated at in ane lawsuit upon arrival.
We knew from diverse nutrient reviews that they produce recycle their satay broth for subsequent patrons, thus beingness the offset batch to swallow hither is really important. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 build novel pot of satay broth was served to us in ane lawsuit we're seated. Then they took our orders for drinks earlier nosotros start checking out the skewers spread.
The spread was indeed extensive, all criterion skewer items are priced at RM1.10 each (inclusive of GST, yes Msia started charging GST since Apr 2015). Premium items (RM2.20/ RM4.00/ RM10.00) are served upon request. More photos here.
Our pickings for the offset round. The staffs came as well as replenished the broth ingredients frequently, keeping the season as well as texture consistent throughout the makan session.
I similar the thick, spicy as well as flavorful satay broth loaded with lotsa crushed peanuts! The skewer items were fresh as well as of reasonably practiced character too. When we're close to finishing the criterion items, nosotros decided to lodge some premium items to try. Some items inward the toll listing weren't available on the twenty-four hours itself thus nosotros picked three from what's available.
Abalone slices & Cuttlefish tentacles RM2.20 |
Giant prawns RM10.00 each |
Fresh as well as meaty! |
This was my offset fourth dimension trying Satay Celup (Satay way steamboat), it is a rare discovery inward SG (a.k.a. Satay lok lok inward SG). I personally liked the thought of dipping raw as well as cooked nutrient inward delicious satay sauce, its quite different from the regular soup based steamboat I commonly have. The satay sauce hither was superb, thus were the myriad choices of skewer items. However, later I've finally tried this long queue place, I would tell it is non worth queuing to a greater extent than than 20mins inward the tropical rut of Melaka. I highly recommend coming inward early on instead, as well as live the offset batch to savour the yummy nutrient here.
Queue at 5.25pm, already spanning 4 blocks away from the shop. |

#3 Jonker 88
The tertiary recommended makan identify that nosotros visited to cause got a sense of savor of local Malaccan nutrient is Jonker 88. Right smack inward the middle of Jonker street 雞場街, this pop tourist eatery is quite worth checking out for its rustic as well as nostalgic interiors, as well as also its food.
This identify runs similar a self-service nutrient courtroom where patrons cause got to discovery their ain tables, as well as and thus queue upwards at the stalls to purchase their food. No serving staffs here, although they produce accuse GST inward the toll of their food.
There are mainly three kinds of nutrient sold here, Noodles & Rice, Rojak & Ngoh Hiang as well as Desserts. Being our offset fourth dimension here, nosotros ordered the most pop items from all three categories for sharing.
For Noodles, nosotros had the famous Laksa inward three different flavors. The Baba Laksa RM6.00+ is similar to SG Laksa with a fragrant kokosnoot milk broth, the Nyonya Asam Laksa RM7.00+ is similar to the sourish Penang Laksa with assam broth, as well as finally the Baba Laksa Kahwin Nyonya Asam Laksa RM7.00+ which has a mixed broth from both Baba as well as Nyonya Laksa.

All three Laksa were served with same ingredients (Prawn, taupok, beancurd skin, egg etc.), the Baba laksa comes with sparse beehoon, whereas the other ii had thick beehoon (translucent type used inward Penang laksa).
My personal fave is the Baba Laksa, the spicy kokosnoot broth was really good. Some of my friends preferred the slightly sourish mixed broth laksa, but nosotros all agreed that the Nyonya laksa was non equally squeamish equally the master Penang laksa.
Baba salad |
Baba goreng goreng |
Also for sharing are the Baba Salad RM10.00+ and Baba Goreng Goreng (price depends on ingredients chosen). The Baba salad was a peranakan way Rojak with mixed fruits, piece the Baba goreng goreng was their version of SG Ngoh Hiang. Both were practiced but non great, I would swallow the ngoh hiang in ane lawsuit again though.
Baba cendol |
Baba durian cendol |
Last but non least, each of us ordered a bowl of Cendol for dessert. Two chief types that's pop hither are the signature Baba Cendol w/ gula melaka RM4.00+ and the Baba Durian Cendol RM5.00+. The cendol hither were quite disappointing, nosotros all agreed the SG version is much nicer than this. Maybe we'll endeavour the Ice Kacang side yesteryear side time.

This tiny store is located only along the same street with our hotel. We walked yesteryear this store several times, as well as were ever curious nigh the nutrient there. It was mainly patronized yesteryear locals, thus peradventure its fourth dimension to endeavour something really local, at a identify where the locals had their lunch.

The noodles were really delicious! It has a long lost onetime schoolhouse sense of savor (古早味) that is springy, eggy as well as smooth, reminds me of the wanton noodles inward SG dorsum inward the 70s-80s.
