where were we again?
Oh yessss, after treating ourselves to the delightful desserts, we've decided that we were officially hungry again and before we knew it, we were already standing in front of the satay celup shop. Oh mai....look at those crowds! Why were there so damn many people wherever we went?
Karat arrived in style
Without wasting much time, CK and the rest went ahead and try to hunt for an empty table, actually two, to be able to accommodate all of us, yes amongst those crowds. I simply stayed outside until they found the tables which was the only important matter to me :P Surprisingly, it didn't take all that long. I wonder why, i guess it must have something to do with that fishy charm of his :S.
First table secured in no time followed by the second one on the right almost immediately. 101% efficient!
I believe what happened after that were pretty much self explanatory, as we went all out on the various type of satay (poor satay sticks) and also not forgetting the ever-taste-like-sarsaparilla (Sarsi soft drink) "liang cha". But hey, i found those drinks addictive though. Weird.
Filtering out oil layer from the top of the satay gravy for a so called "healthier" meal, LOL!
Going to the fridge to choose from a wide range of selections...
Okay, maybe there's not much choosing after all, we pretty much took everything that we saw alright.
Left : Even wondered what those cutesy cutesy green balls are? Right : They magically unfolds into spinach!
The sarsi-taste-like liang cha i was talking about.
Left : Looks like somebody's gonna puke. :P
Right : I have absolutely no idea what that was, pig ear? Pig tongue? Something like that. Jeeez...
Right : I have absolutely no idea what that was, pig ear? Pig tongue? Something like that. Jeeez...
Soon enough, we became so full that the very same noob who came up with the oil-filtering idea in the first place started playing with the gravy. Yes, the next bunch of customers were going to appreciate that. Thank you very much.
Ok, we are now full. At least that's what i thought. At this point, i did not know what was our next destination so i just kind of followed the rest. After a short drive, we parked and came to this one very dark alley (it was night already by then) and i must say that i have no idea of what they could actually find in a place like this. But let's take a look at the picture see if for yourself!
What were these people doing here at this time? Still not clear???
YESS!! IT'S THE LA-LAS AND SI-HAM PARADISE!
Not for me though, i hate lalas and siham, so i gave it a pass. So did a few other guys who felt that they already had enough for the night.
Left : and surprisingly, this noob were still able to go full force on the poor sihams. Right: I also saw this ho-chiak seal of approval from 8TV, didn't really know how it ended up there though.
After that, we went for short boat trip along the Malacca River also known as Malacca Cruise. The camera did not perform a very good job under low lightning condition here but overall it was a fun experience and it's good to take a break after eating so much.
After the boat ride, we proceeded to our final destination for one last dessert for the night. Actually this shop was also very famous for its duck noodles but too bad we were a little bit overloaded tonight so nobody mentioned anything about the noodles at all. What a waste =/
Holy sh!t, even it's crowded here!
And, that's all for first day folks..........

WTFFF??!!
Yes, they (including me) just did not want to end the night without giving this famous char siew rice one last go. So here we went! Yet another moderate to heavy meal which truly marked the end of the food hunting itinerary for the first day. Phew!
-Day 2-
The very next day were just, let's put it this way; we tried to make the best out of remaining time here on Malacca to eat whatever that we might have left out the day before. We woke up early in the morning for a sumptuous dim-sum meal! Again, it was crowded like hell. Why were people like this everywhere? :P
Then, we paid a visit to Tan Kim Hock shop famous for its dodol, rubbing oils and some other stuff that i'm not really interested in. We also had some cendols there and it was pretty awesome. I had a durian cendol myself!
Without realizing it, noon has arrived and it's time for our lunch before returning home. This time we went back to a tiny food court we used to patronized a lot during our uni days due to the awesome curry and fried chicken rice that can be found there. We were glad that those stalls were still alive and kicking even after 5 years since we last came.
It was after lunch that we finally parted our way, wishing each other well and i was sure we will return one day for another round of food chomping frenzy. Although it was only a short reunion, i must say i had a blast and i was especially happy that the Legendary Cao Cui King still held to his championship belt even after so many years. That alone gave us good laugh and totally made our day. =)
Until then buddies, let's meet up again somewhere in the near future!
and lastly but not least, here's a totally random pic of my BELOVED MAO!
