The first stop was Yong Peng. Somehow, Samuel had heard of the fishballs in Yong Peng and wanted to eat that. Personally I think the fishballs are quite nice, but not that great either. I got the impression from Keren that she thinks it was ok ok only...haha. But I thing I only remember from this stall is the fried fish cake. They were the best fish cakes I have eaten so far. Yup, apparently they all said it was quite nice too.
After that, we went straight to Melaka town for chicken rice balls. When we got there, there was a long queue in front of the stall under the hot Melaka sun. Well, I think it is just normal chicken rice made into balls only. What is the fuss about it? Why would any sane people queue up in front of the stall? Keren's mum even said that they squeezed the rice balls with their hands, that is why they are so tasty. After we had it, I do agree with Samuel that the chicken was nice. I love the sauce, reminds me of my favourite chicken dish that my grandma used to make.
We walked around the church area of Melaka looking for all the local touristy stuff. More shopping followed after at Dataran Merdeka, the newest and biggest shopping centre in Melaka. But that not before we had some A&Ws. I dunno why singaporeans are so crazy about A&W. Hahaha...we ate somemore of the waffles and float. I feel like a glutton.
We shopped and bought some nice clothes. I also bought my sister a present. She was so smart to ask for an expensive present. I thought roxy bags are cheap but after entering the shop I was enlightened about the truth of roxy prices. Wow...she shouldnt be so branded lar...hahaha
After shopping, we had some nice nyonya dishes. They were quite good but the portions were so small! We must have confused the waitress alot with our ordering, she even ordered the wrong chicken dish for us which turned out to be the one we wanted to order because we couldn't decide on which to order. Lol, I think my sentences are so confusing. Anyways, the business there was so good that they refused to have 2nd orders. I think everyone on the table thinks that the rice there was fantastic. I had 2 big helpings of rice myself while Keren's brothers gobble up the rest of the rice. Thankfully rice was free flow =)
After the nice dinner, we rushed back to JB. I was in cold sweat as Samuel drove 180km/h on the highway. HAhaha...but after Fidelis took over the wheel, the whole car just cant seem so sleep. Everyone was so anxious, worried and afraid because he drove super fast and tailgated the cars in front. Thankfully, we had a safe but noisy trip back =)
Thanks for inviting me for your family road trips. I really enjoyed it.
