We couldn’t leave Melaka without having any peranakan cuisine. Peranakan, also known as baba nyonya, are descendants of early Chinese migrants who settled in Malaysia and Indonesia and married with Malays. So peranakan cuisine is a combination of Malay and Chinese food.
Recommended by the waitress, we ordered ikan asam pedas. The soup tasted quite different as it was more sour and spicier. As for the fish, it was quite fresh too. We simply love spicy food!
We ordered something that we’re unfamiliar with, ayam tempra, which is known as spicy and sour stir fried Chicken in English. It was not that spicy and sour, tasted quite normal to us.
Lastly, we ordered kang kong belacan, one of the most common nyonya dish in Malaysia.
Of course, not letting go any chance to order desserts, we ordered cendol, again! Personally, we prefer the cendol we ate in Jalan Hang Jebat (Jonker Street). That tasted much better and their serving was so much larger.
We ordered bubur cha cha too, a dessert where yam and sweet potato and sago were served in coconut milk. It was slightly too sweet.
The bill was RM33.30 in total. We enjoyed nyonya food but we’re certain that there are better nyonya restaurants in Malacca.
