We agreed that the road trip should stay within RM50 budget inclusive of toll, gas, food everything. Nevertheless, we exceeded our budget by a few bucks hehe.... anyhow, RM60 for a road trip is consider an economic trip already. n_n
We gathered at my home around 7.30am, never expected Siang to reach my house the earliest!! We then went for dim sum breakfast near my house and off we go...
We reached PD around 9am and head straight to the Ostrich farm. SM found a few "tourist spots" from the internet cause we have no idea what we can do here except for the beach...
Ostrich park entrance fee: RM8. The farm is not well maintained. Smelly shit + "balding" ostriches.
There are other animals kept in the farm such as goat, turkey, peacock, crocodile, duck etc.
Kit feeding the starving big bird. This was one ferocious bird i tell ya... only Kit dared to go near to feed them...
Afro chic...
White peacock
Me on an Ostrich egg. The amazing egg can bear up to 230kg of weight.
The lighthouse. Entrance fee: Free. A place worth going for its view and greenery park.
Breathtaking seaview... i never expected to see such beautiful view at PD here!
After visiting the lighthouse, we have absolutely nothing to do at PD. So, i suggested either head south to Melaka or north to Seremban for grilled crab meal. Since it was still early in the afternoon and not a suitable time for crab meal, we decided to head south.
By the time we reached Melaka, it was 1.00pm. We headed straight to Nancy's kitchen for lunch since our stomaches already fighting to get our attention.
Melaka must try dessert: Cendol! Your Melaka trip ain't complete without trying the local cendol. The santan is so fragrant and i just love their gula melaka... n_n
Another worth trying snack is the Nyonya popiah. The size of the popiah is bigger than those we normally have in KL. So, we just ordered one each for the popiah. Have you eaten a popiah with prawn, 猪油渣 and sambal in it?
After having lunch at Nancy's kitchen, we have nothing to do untill another round of meal. While we were circling around Melaka town, we saw this new shopping mall located just opposite The Mahkota Parade. Apparently it's Melaka own megamall - Dataran Pahlawan. It was a freaking hot afternoon, so we have no choice but to stay in an air-con mall.
Many major flagship outlets are available here such as MNG, Esprit, PADINI etc. It's a fairly new mall but it's already pack with people. Seems like Melaka people are all going to the mall or maybe pack with people like us all over from KL?!
We were lepaking around the mall to kill our time. But it was damn boh liao so we decided to eat again! =_="
We saw this self-claimed Melaka first Hong Kong style Cafe and decided to give it a try.
The cafe's owner must be a dedicated HK TVB series fan cause she put a wallpaper size photo she took with TVB hunkies, Lam Fung, Cheng Ka Weng etc in front of her cafe.
The food there taste so so only + poor service , we waited soooo long for our food and drinks. Chee Thing said its pork burger size is smaller than Kim Gary and Siang's french toast is toooo oily. I ordered the fried milky bun, taste ok but it can taste better if its custard texture is smoother.
Used to see giant lizards here along Sungai Melaka... now GONE after they "beautify" as waterfront sidewalk.
We then walked to Jonker street which is just nearby Sungai Melaka... unfortunately, Jonker streeet night market only operates on weekend, so we went to eat another round of cendol. n_n
Assam laksa sold out, so Sze Mun ordered the Nyonya laksa. Taste like sambal curry, not bad though...
Finally, satay celup time!! Kit brought us to this satay celup stall by the roadside. It was the cheapest satay celup I had so far... only cost 40 cent per stick!! 5 of us had 117 sticks for only RM53.70. I had 20 sticks by myself already =_=" I'm soooo going to watch out my diet from now on....
