Redbull's annual family trip to Malacca is here again which simply means bucketful of food, food & food (which I didn't take a single picture of). Waking up at the wee hours to cross over the borders was a feat but staying awake wasn't especially when I only caught a wink for 4 hours the night before. Nevertheless, this innocent morning face of Joshua's woke our sleepy nerves temporarily. 

First meal at 6AM
(I only had a few wanton. Never liked the wanton mee. Also, it was too early.)
For this year, I thought we were going to have a change of place for breakfast at 6AM but no nearby coffee shop was opened except for this, again. Bet the majority who came here was left with no other choice for the same reason as their wanton mee really doesn't taste nice, at all. 

The book for the trip. 

Always a sleeping beauty. 

All chirpy once he has had ample sleep. 

Second meal at lunchtime before heading to the church.
Horfun
Fried wanton
Fat & juicy char siew
Steamed chicken
Stir-fried beansprouts

To Tan Kim Hock where we saw Mr Tan himself sitting on a stool watching money rolling in, hahaha.
Redbull: "This is the last piece in this shop."
Joshua: "Yes, this is how popular i am."

The hotel we stayed in, Ramada Plaza. Hopefully we'll stay in this hotel next year so I can use the gym & pool. Fanatic girl. 

Enjoyed the comfort of the room's bed & sofa before exploring the hotel's surroundings. THEN third meal at 3PM was chicken rice balls not because there was anything to rave about Malacca's chicken rice balls (it used to taste really nice when I had it years ago though) but it was merely because of Redbull's greediness for food. 

Mass was at 730PM & we reached at 630PM.
The two lovelies lighting up the candles that were extinguished by the strong wind which was a sign for the after downpour. 

Fourth meal was at 930PM after the mass at a zi char stall where we had
salted egg crabs
milky crabs
otah
potato leaves
cereal prawns
pork ribs
fu rong dan

Fifth meal (YES. 5 meals in 1 day!) was right after the zi char at this ulu back alley where they sell fresh cockles & lala AND the yummiest tahu rojak & cuttlefish rojak I've ever had! I bet the chilli & rojak sauce are the shop's secret recipes. 

Imagine eating at a place surrounded by smells that aren't exactly flattering due to the drains and scattering rats searching for foo, yet the place is always filled with people? Yes, there must be real yummy deals around to be attracting the crowd despite the filthy dining place. Even Taiwan's 美食大三通 recommended this place as a must visit. 

Second day: We woke up at 830AM and had our breakfast at a nearby coffeeshop before heading to Jonker Walk for a quick shopping spree.
