Yes, I love the state of Malacca... However, the 1 significant thing I experienced during my last weekend was : HOT, HOT & HOT!!
I was certainly pleased with the opening of the latest and fashionable boutique right at the Jonker Street, MART, which enabled me to spend quite a fair bit of time 'indoor'... And love the entire 'MART' concept, and just love the vibrant colors of the interior and also the clothing here..
After shopping, we all needed to fill our stomach, thus, headed to the famous nyonya food around Jonker, ie. Nancy's Kitchen.
As it was 1pm+, it doesn't come as a surprise that we had to wait quite a fair bit for our seat.
Ordered the Top Hat (Pai Tee). Love the crispy top hat case, and this was definitely gorgeous in presentation. Pai Tee is eaten together with filling that combines the cooked sengkuang, fried shallots, egg and parsley.
Anything cold during this weather spells 'arrgh, relief'.. haha... This simple bowl of cendol definitely beats the famous '88 Jonker'...
Wanted something non spicy for the kids, so ordered the fish ball with egg roll soup. Boiled together with some vege, this is pure simple and nothing special really. Fishball was also very ordinary tasting.
We absolutely loved this signature dish of Nancy Kitchen. Cooked using lot of candle nut, this dish carried a strong smell of lemongrass. The chicken was cooked long enough, as it was really tender.
This pork rib dish is also available in duck meat. The ribs are marinated with coriander and then stew with spices. This dish has a slight sweetness taste, and not too bad a choice.
