PINEAPPLE TARTS, TRADITIONAL BISCUITS & WAH AIK SHOEMAKER
BUKIT CINA CENDOL & MEE REBUS
Fancy eating a bowl of cendol served near to a cemetery? This is the famous place. But now moved into a roofed premise named Restoran Sakina by the main road, the horrific chance of sighting shadows from the netherworld during your cendol jaunt could be significantly reduced. The Mee Campur was a moderately spicy version, yet leaving not much of an impression. The Cendol was only passable though; a heaven-sent on a sunny day but far from the best that Melaka can offer.
KLEBANG ORIGINAL COCONUT SHAKE

Can you imagine lining up with dozens of people, or seated and wait for a very long time just to savour a cup of Coconut Shake? Essentially consisting of coconut water, coconut flesh and vanilla ice-cream blended with ice and served in plastic cups, the crowd literally go ga-ga over this refreshing blend!
PERKAMPUNGAN IKAN BAKAR TERAPUNG UMBAI
East-bound, a slight distance further than Portuguese Settlement will lead you to the Malay-style of grilled fish and other seafood in Umbai. Generally cheaper (not dirt-cheap though) than the Portuguese version, with variations to the sauces and cooking methods used, a journey from Melaka town to Umbai can take you half an hour or so. We picked a grilled siakap (barramundi) that came very fresh and succulent, but definitely more than enough for two. The crispy batter-coated fried calamari was excellent too, but the chili mussels was a disappointment. The seafood here can be served with white rice, or like us, with packets of nasi lemak and a deadly sambal kicap with chopped cili padi.
