Streets of Malacca [Malacca]

We walked up and down Jonker Street many times and even had time to explore the adjoining streets! It’s fun to explore!

And that marks the end of my Malacca posts! :)

Attractions [Malacca]

Malacca is relatively a small town so there aren’t many tourist attractions to speak of. Still, there are some iconic buildings that you can immediately identify as attractions of Malacca!

Christ Church

Saw a pretty fountain there!

St Paul’s Church

A Famosa Fort

With lots of time to spare, we also checked out some less famous attractions!

Malacca River

Beautiful yah? Next time I go back to Malacca, shall sit on the River Cruise!

Water Wheel

Maritime Museum

San Su Gong [Malacca]

San Su Gong is almost a landmark in Malacca and is located just to the right of the main entrance of Jonker Walk.

It’s where you can buy lots of goodies and snacks back home as souvenirs!

There’s a cafe on the first floor and I recommend you try the Ice Cold White Coffee. You can give the Chendol a miss cos it’s expensive and not as nice as Jonker 88’s! Joe will never fail to buy packets of White Coffee back from here!

Lots of stuff to buy!

Durian jam!

Lian’s!

And lots of other good stuff!

Jonker 88 [Malacca]

Another must-try food in Malacca is Chendol which is shaved rice with sweet gula melaka swirled over it! And what better place to try it than the popular Jonker 88?

We went on Monday morning when the queue wasn’t that crazy! There are stalls selling different food and you have to order, pay and wait for the food to be prepared before you can sit down. It would be good to go in and get some seats first before ordering.

Some pics of the inside of the shophouse! The shophouses in Malacca are narrow in length but long in depth!

We ordered Assam Laksa – which Joe said was very good! I am not into too sour stuff so I ordered Baba Laksa instead.

I loved the Baba Laksa that I ordered! The tofu pieces soaked up the gravy and it was simply delicious just biting into them! There were even thinly sliced cucumber and tuna pieces in the laksa – very unique!

The chendol was not bad but there should be more gula melaka!

Joe ordered mango ice kacang, the mango pieces should be bigger!

All in all, an enjoyable meal and worth a visit for the amazing laksa!

Jonker 88
88 Jalan Hang Jebat (also known as Jonker Street)
Just keep walking down along Jonker Street and you will see it on your right hand side!
You can’t miss it cos there will be a long queue outside!
