wen i mention 'nice', in melaka it refers to, first & foremost... the FOODS! haha... yummie yummie foods, besides the chiken rice. RILI! so far, i havent found any other place that offers foods nicer than my own homeland, but melaka... ah! nice (TOO), but ofcos, so far, nothing can beat our laksa yet! hehe... ok, here goes. pix very un-inviting, i know. but... niceeee!

the few dishes that we managed to swallow tat nite. haha.. dun bother bout the names, i cannot remember. but the PENANG's asam laksa, deliciouuusss! PENANG?! hehe. and the nyonya cendols, etc etc... the "atap-sugar" very the "thick". hehe...

next, not on food anymore.. but the stalls along the very famous JONKER STREET. the CIPLAK lil 'ayam' bowls (can i call em 'bowlets?' hehe...jk!) and all those souveniers, etc. and, ah! the "khek" (cantonese) a.k.a. "cha-kiap" (hokkien). plenty of em there! its cute, but its not something i wud buy... un-wearable! haha (but u can see those stall owners along the street wearing em!) except the fridge magnet ones la. haha...

not forgetting, creative malaccans. luk at these 2 signboards... errmm, 1 signboard plus, do u call tat lion head a signboard? nah.. a decor thingie. cute huh> haha.
