the good thing about nonya food is, there is spicy dishes as well as dish like otah which is my favourite!

This is very authethic and simple, tofu with fried onion and vegetables.

Otah stick, taste like otah fishcake, can it by itself or with rice

 

it is really crowded here, so it is good to dress casually

The durian puff… be sure to put the whole thing in your mouth as it will burst and the juice will flow out

Hakka pie. this is the first time I saw this 🙂

And I love kaya toast. I can eat kaya everyday 🙂

pork floss with seaweed and mayo sandwich. something unique.
The breakfast set, looks like something that I can prepare for you 🙂 very homemade style. feel so at home when I am eating there.

Dry meesiam 🙂 it is really tasty. I am craving for it now… feel like visiting Melaka soon

Alright, next up, we are going to visit St. Paul Cathedral

Do you know why the statue does not have one hand?

A marble statue of St. Francis Xavier, built in 1953, stands within the complex commemorating Malaysia’s best-known missionary. Stories say that when Xavier was to be canonized in 1614 the Vatican demanded the right arm (this was the arm Francis used to bless his converts) from the body. When it was cut off, blood appeared to drip, 6o-odd years after his death; when the marble statue was erected in 1952, on the morning after its consecration a large casuarina tree fell on it severing its right arm.

The ruins of St. Paul’s Church are at the summit of St. Paul’s Hill. Built on the site of the last Malaccan sultan’s istana (palace), it was constructed by Portuguese fidalgo (nobleman) captain, Duarte Coelho, in gratitude to the Virgin Mary for saving his life during a storm at sea.

Roofless and covered in ferns, it was originally called the Nossa Senhora da Annunciada (Our Lady of the Annunciation). Though it has been in ruins for more than 150 years, it is a beautiful, breezy sanctuary (reached after a steep flight of stairs) set near the remains of A’ Famosa fort.

Outfit of the day. something casual coz the sun is sooo hot 🙂

every steps I take 🙂 step by step towards my dreams

And before we leave Malacca, lets have the famous Chicken Riceball 🙂

my favourite sambal sotong. I can finish it all

the chicken is very tender, juicy and I totally forget how many I have eaten. so good 🙂

it is so bouncy and this is my 1st time eating this chicken rice ball

This pretty sum up a weekend well spent on Saturday and sunday 🙂 I guess this is something different from just window shopping around Singapore or catching a movie. Definitely something nice to do and have a short getaway 🙂 Do you like Malaysia? share with me where to eat , shop, travel . Feel free to write your comment and share with  me where to eat at Malacca, penang, KL, etc 🙂

And taking the coach back to Singapore 🙂 selfie time 🙂
