Jonker Street, Melaka
We settled in our nice, cozy hotel that night but my feet are itching to see what is in store in Melaka. We passed by the crazy street bazaar on route to our hotel, so the two of us (we left our Atei at the hotel since the day has been so heavy for her) went back and explored the area.
JONKER STREET
Known as the famous night market in Melaka, Jonker Street was an array of bright lights, cute and artsy souvenirs, food and tourists. The famous bike ride - the uber-colorful and eye-striking trishaws captured our attention (and cameras as well). We opted not to ride them (ahem, 40 RM for a ride) so we decided to just walk around Jonker Street.
Below are the ones we found along the way.

Kuih Lobak - I still do not understand this food. Texture is like a hard tofu.
Stir-fried in very hot oil and pan. Add spices and sauce.
Its reminds me of tofu sisig but with less flavor on the tofu. |
After the nightly stroll, we decided to go back and relax for the night. Tomorrow is another day, and the three of us will explore what Melaka has to offer.
