Childhood Food Craze= Melacca Satay Celup

last week went down to Melacca to visit my grandma..was a one day trip...left after my dad off work...went down there for lunch...coz wanna eat the uber nice cendol and the nyonya laksa..

reached melacca around 3pm...went straight to Jonker


the very traditional Fried Lobak Kuih...i still can remember how it tasted like...used to had it everytime i went back melacca..back then we were staying at Jln Ong Kim Wee..on those shop houses..and my uncle would wait for this man riding on a motorcycle selling Fried Lobak Kuih on Sunday mornings...the taste of it...its damn aromatic and nice...those in KL is nothing compared to the ones selling in Melacca



still look like CNY season huh...

hot weather...

dunno why melacca is famous for pineapple tarts...there's alot of shops selling pineapple tarts in Jonker...so this is like the biggest pineapple tart ever??haha

some uncle drawing on the sidewalk...

chinese temple..opposite the famous Kuan Yin Ting

and this is famous Kuan Yin Ting..

on the way to grandma hse...saw this SLK...what caught my attention was the malay lady driver was fetching a carfull of passengers...two humans infront..and two HUGE Garfield behind..lol

heading out for dinner....got out the house and saw that the rubbish bin was opened and all the rubbish was all over the place...guess who did the GOOD job??

none other than those notorious monkeys in the neighbourhood...

attacking some other house's rubbish bin..

more of their peers came and joined the fun...

they're huge...HUGE...
for a city gal like me which basically spend the past 20 years in the city...seeing something like this is considered something bizaar...so i snapped abit too many pics on the monkeys..

having their own feast..they saw the car coming..yet they refused to BUDGE!!!!

and at last second...the car ad stopped there...only they wanna run for their lives...how funny creatures...and not forgetting to bring their food along with them..

on the way to my satay celup meal in at the place i used to stay...my couz...

at the age of 7...she takes good pictures..hahaha

tada!!!!...i've been craving for this meal for so long that i couldnt even remembered how long it was..haha...this is the same shop that i went back when i last had my satay celup meal when i was young

bread and cucumber

you get to choose what kinda satay you want...but the best i think is taiwanese sausages,pork balls,sotongs and the fish paste thingy which i call "flying saucer"...ahaha actually it was my bro who started calling it that name..and ever since it has made its name in my household.

and you're to dip the satays in the pot of sause...its like normal kajang satay sauce..maybe not as thick la...

and this is what i did everytime i ate satay celup back in those younger days..i couldnt take the spiciness of the sauce but yet i still wanna eat...so i'll asked for a bowl of hot water..and after dipping the satay into the peanut sauce, i'll "wash" it in the bowl of hot water to remove the chilli...and it was still quite spicy back then...but now...the sauce was like nothing to me..hahah..not spicy at all...

after dinner...went to visit my grandma's sis...this is the Eye of Msia..now in Melacca


some very random pics coming up...

came back home after visiting...and the cats got into the house while waiting to be fed..tiger went into the toilet..thought she wanna take a piss or wanna poo...

but she went for a drink...she always like to drink from this big pale of water in the toilet..god knows why...lol

muahahahhaah!!!caught in action..lol
