Just back from melaka

[Vyap]

good weather , did Not notice any pot holes... good driving trip very smooth from JB to Melaka about 2 hrs. each way. Lucky, did not kenna stop by TP.

 

Newton food centre highly recommended. Food price is same as our food court BUT in RM. Must try:

* Chicken rice ball RM4 (excellent!)

*Chee Cheong Fan RM3 (the Best of the best, no stall in Singapore can be better!)

*Satay per stick RM0.50cts (better than our East coast satay

*ice-cream per scoop RM1.20

* sting Ray RM10.00 (better than SGP, different way of cooking!)

We stayed at Seri Costa, melaka town. Within walking distance to many attractions like A'Farmosa, Newton food centre, Maritime museum, etc.. etc.

Got a 2-bed room suite, 1 king size bed with 2 single beds,... for kids plus extra mattress for maid etc.. Very clean & comfortable hotel....

[Paithorn]

how much is the hotel bro? and where is this newton food court?

[Vyap]

use NSH, exit Ayer Kelor toll, drive all the way straight till 5 traffic lights turn left, then another 2, turn right.... once you enter the melaka town you will know, slow traffic, it's all one-way traffic in circle,... Red buildings (Jonker street) is the landmark that you are in centre of melaka... If you are not sure of the way.....always stop at petrol station & ask for direction sure to find you way..to where u want to go

Bro, the 2 bed room is RM 370/nite during super peak. Newton food court is walking distance from Seri Costa... about 5 mins walk, round the corner.. Jalan Merdeka area oppsite the big shopping mall.. Hotel will even give you a map & also parking coupons thru-out yr stay...yeah

""Red buildings (Jonker street) is the landmark that you are in centre of melaka."

 

Jonker St got red buildings???????? "

 

 

 

I believe he means after a row of red building and then cross a bridge is Jonker Street. Had not been to Malacca for the past 6 years after the crime rate had risen in MY. That street name is Jalan Hang Tua name after their famous ancient warrior.

 

Miss the chicken rice balls sold at Jonker St coffee shop called "Farmosa Rest".....

 

[Rskeisuke]

is it safe to park around malacca? any fine dining restaurant there? what about spa?

[Apollo]

safe lah... fine dining have lah.. just park along the roadside dun insert coins into the parking machine. confirm after dining sure kena fine.

Red buildings (Jonker street) is the landmark that you are in centre of melaka...
