Ikan Bakar @ Umbai, Melaka

We went back to Melaka for a wedding and staying for the night at my in-laws in Alor Gajah.

Decided to have our dinner at Umbai. I could not think when was the last time we had ikan bakar so we decide to visit.

From Alor Gajah to Umbai takes more than an hour although it is just 27 km away. But thanks to Melaka dozens of traffic lights it really testing our patience. It was unbrlirvable sight. At 10 pm, the place is totally jammed pack with visitors from all over. From Kuala Lumpur and Singapore. To get a parking space is just like a wrestle in a Cage of Doom. You have to fight for the space. We were lucky enough to find a space in front of the restaurant.

Teluk Intan. Menara Condong Food Court.

It is Chrismas holiday. The road is jammed packed. Not advice to travel out of Kuala Lumpur. But I have made reservation at Damail Laut Hotel and SPA for the weekend.Travelling on the North South Highway and exit at Bidor to make my way to Lumut normally takes me about an hour. But today, it takes me about 3 hours to exit off Bidor and our stomach are growling heavly.

Rex Hotel

Looking for a hotel in a place you never been before is always a gamble. You never know what in store for you. Well, many internet reviews gives different perspective of the hotel based on their taste and experience and some are thru luck. I pick up Rex Hotel based on the price and location. Prime location district 1 where everything is there.. The price was reasonable. So I click to book...

Halal @ Saigon

We had it twice at Halal@Saigon. The food is great with quite reasonable portion. This restaurant located at Dung Du street at District 1. It's located opposite of Sheraton Hotel and also a mosque. When we entered both times, it is visible enough that most Malaysian have visited this restaurant.

Kam Bach Dang Ice Cream

After a disappointment outing to Ben Thahn market, we came across with this Ice Cream parlor just at the road side on our way back to Rex Hotel .

VN Halal

Located opposite of New World hotel and just a hundred meters away from BT market. The shop is quite small and hidden although situated at the main road.I passed it once without noticing it.
