After some nice sleep, we were ready to start our day-2 Malacca trip. First stop was the famous Chung Wah Chicken Rice Ball!
OMG, see the queue? We came at 8.30 and the queue already this long -_-
We were very hungry already and really couldn't wait any longer to be seated :| After queueing for 45 minutes, it's finally our turn! My first impression, the owner and staff were not friendly at all, they were rude. The food was automatically served to us, no question asked. They will literally shout at you if you ask or say something to them. They only served half/whole chicken and 5 rice balls. The food presentation was messy and I really don't think it's delicious, the taste is very average or tasteless? I think the chicken rice at my hometown (Batam Island) still taste a lot better than this. lol, this is a very overrated restaurant. So why is it so famous? Well, I won't say it worth the long queue~ But if you're going to Malacca for the first time, maybe you would want to try it out like I did. Tourists are all curious, right? :D But if one day I happened to go to Malacca again, I won't come here, it's a waste of time.
Chung Wah Chicken Rice Ball's kitchen and the food they served
The Dutch Square
The Maritime Museum (Muzium Samudera)
They said that this is a replica of the Portuguese ship.
I couldn't take the picture of this whole ship, it was too big, couldn't fit into my camera screen, lol.
Somewhere near the maritime museum.
Trust me, the sun was very hot! I could barely open my eyes ~_~
Menara Taming Sari is an attraction which will take you up to 80 metres height and give you a panoramic 360 degrees view of Malacca city. They also provide a binocular for you, so you can see everything in detail. The ticket fare is RM 21,2 person (foreign).
Beautiful view of Malacca World Heritage City
Next, Melaka Duck Tour! It's an amphibian boat which offers a tour in the straits of Melaka.
It's quite pricey, RM 45/person (foreign)
Actually there was nothing much to see. Going down to the water is what makes it fun :p
After the duck tour, we went to Mahkota Parade for lunch. I had a bowl of Asam Laksa. This is the most delicious meal that I had in Malacca. If you're coming to Malacca for food, then you better don't come. Because honestly, I don't think their food is special. It's very ordinary, I mean the taste is also very average, not so great. But it's a great city for sightseeing~
St. Paul Hill
With a bowl of Laksa in my tummy, we climbed up here, lol.
The Stadthuys
We went to the Dataran Pahlawan Shopping Mall in the evening.
We were amazed by its huge field, I think we can do a picnic here :D
Then we head back to Jonker Street Night Market! Yuhuuu~~ We bought some souvenirs, shopped and had char-kway-teow for our dinner. Boyfriend had a bowl of Durian Cendol at Bibik House Durian Cendol, but he said it doesn't taste as good as he thought.

Well, here was the end of our day-2 trip. The next day, we didn't go anywhere. We only had breakfast at a Kopitiam near our guesthouse and then headed back to Johor directly.
A very classic breakfast: teh tarik, kaya toast and half-boiled egg
And again, meet another rude restaurant owner, lol
-THE END-
As I've said before, I really don't suggest you to go to Malacca if you're looking for yummy food. Because I think their food has a very average taste and don't forget the bad restaurant services, lol. But it's a great city for sightseeing. They have a lot of museums and historical places to visit. Anyway, I was having a lot of fun, so THANK YOU, MALACCA! :)
