We had supper at a nearby cafe in a shopping centre next to the Equatorial Hotel. Not very nice but we just got there. So anything will do.
This is a view early in the morning from the balcony of our hotel.
We had breakfast in a small coffeeshop and this is like Singapore in the olden days. The picture below shows the coffeeshop.
My wife bought some stuff from this shop outside a Chinese market. Some stuff to cook Malacca style food.
You can still find roadside stalls selling pork, fruits and poultry in Malacca. In Singapore, they are history.
Some local delights.
This is a Malay market. You cannot find pork here.
If you go to Malacca, you must always visit Jonker Street. The night market happens only on Friday and Saturday nights. Do bargain when you buy stuff from the hawkers.
At Jonker Street, you must also try the chicken rice and durian chendol.
There is one chicken rice stall in an old shop house that normally has a queue. Queue early because it is lightly to finish by 2 pm.
We ate chicken rice at another shop. Better than nothing.
There are more things and sights to see. A Google search will provide more information that I could.
If you are going to Malacca and have not been to Singapore (or even if you have been to Singapore), do pay a visit to Singapore. You're see the contrast.
