Chinese new year just end and finally I have time to update my blog and upload few photos here. It was a long journey from the place I studying to my hometown. Around 6 hours journey or equal to 550++km. I will stop by some place like Malacca and Kuala Lumpur everytime I driving back to home.
This post gonna talk about the food I ate during this Chinese New Year period. I went to 2 places, so called "food heaven' in Malaysia, which are Melaka and Penang. The third food heaven? Of course is my hometown, Teluk Intan. ^^
Have Nadeje layer cake at Melaka (candid by my friend)
Dinner at Ji Xiang restaurant
The well known Mamit chicken of this restaurant
Sweet and sour crab
Glutinous rice with BBQ pork (my hometown food)
I not gonna talk much about my hometown food, I have wrote few posts about it before.
Penang
Right after the 9th day of Chinese New Year (lunar calendar), we organized a short trip to the one of the food heaven in east Malaysia, Penang.
Our first stop was Charlie Brown cafe, a Snoopy themed cafe, served coffee with Snoopy character calligraphy on top.
It is located at Strait Quay
Have a break with Snoopy
Gong Xi Fa Cai
The calligraphy
We have our dinner at a hawker stalk opposite Penang Girl's School
Char Kuey Tiaw
Fried fish eggs. I not sure how many of your do eat fish eggs. For me, it is delicious and full of protein.
O-jian (Fried oyster with eggs)
Of course, we visited Kek Lok Si (temple), a tourist attraction.
Have Hokkien mee (prawn noodles) as our supper.
Melaka
I visited Melaka again on 4th February for our university friends Chinese New Year gathering. This time, we have 10 types of Melaka food in one day. You can imagine how much we missed Melaka's food.
Nyonya laksa and Cendol, they are still other stall better than this
Klebang coconut milkshake (I feel all the milkshake have almost the same taste, wonder why so many ppl like to buy from this stall)
Haagen Dazs ice cream
Affogato, very nice but pricy.
Pak Putra Tandoori chicken, consider the best Tandoori in Melaka.
BBQ stuff
Satay celup (A must have food if you visit Melaka)
Mango juice in Jonker street. It have a very unique taste if you like sour drink.
I did not snap all photos, guess I left some of them.
Haagen Dazs fondae as dinner for 5th February
The next 2 days, 15th in lunar calendar (Valentine's day for Chinese). We have Korean food as dinner instead of throwing orange into river.
BBQ Beef. Korean BBQ is always one of the best BBQ.
刀削面 (I think it should be 'knife chopped noodle' if translate directly)
Fried dumplings
Have a drinks at Overtime. I like the outdoor environment of Overtime Melaka branch. Feel windy as it is located at second floor.
Finally, duck mee for midnight supper.
Where am I now? Melaka again lo, 2 more days left for my semester break. Back to school soon!
