MALACCA: THE PERFECT FOODIE GETAWAY! // EATING OUR WAY THROUGH JONKER STREET, MELAKA, MALAYSIA!

We took a last minute trip to Melaka! Jonty's Grandfather was born in Melaka and so it has been on our list to explore for quite some time. We took advantage of a few quiet days to go and explore what Melaka had to offer. Our first night we decided to eat the entire way through Jonker Street! Join us and experience all the amazing and interesting foods too!

    Great show thank you. We haven’t been to Malacca for a few years but it appears to be alive and exciting. Our relatives are all coming to Singapore from Perth,Canberra and Melbourne in Dec for a special birthday celebration . We may revisit Malacca having seen your show. Cheers Greg from Pert

    Wow that sounds like quite the family celebration! Whatever you get to I hope you have a great time. Do consider air b’n’b’s in the area for places to stay - it kept our short but sweet trip on a good budget (to then spend trying all the food haha) we have a couple more Malacca vlogs coming next week. Can share with your family to get them in the mood.

    You guys made Jonker Street night market look so exciting. Thank you for sharing. The last time I was there over 10 years ago, my daughter’s bag was cut and her wallet was stolen without her realising it till she needed to pay for something. Thank God you guys were safe!

    Jonty, hope you caught the RWC finals last night. Springboks beat All blacks by a whisker. Hope you celebrate too. I love kiwis but I know South Africans are really good. Btw I played fir st Andrews secondary in the heydays when the Saints were a stronghold school team as ACS and RI kept knocking 🏆

    Melaka (or Malacca, as most of us know it!) is a fabulous getaway. Glad you did this video. I’ve missed Jonker Street. I see you guys ate your way through the street, 😂. Should try the chendol there, it’s done slightly differently from the ones you get in Singapore, at least the one I tried at Jonker some years back. It’s drier, with more ice and not so much coconut milk but the gula melaka comes through more. Aspen’s expressions after tasting kopi luwak and after the trishaw ride were priceless!!!

    Ah!!! FOOD! FOOD! FOOD! 😁 There has been and will always be an argument on which country (Singapore or Malaysia) has the better food, both in terms of quality and variety. Also, seems like you guys are becoming more Singaporean with the way you react to the sights and smell of FOOD. 😁

    It’s a topic that comes up often in our home as we’d all love one but unfortunately the cost here is just too high for us. We do look after a little dog every so often when their owners travel though! She’ll be with us this Christmas and we can’t wait! 🐶 Milo currently has two terrapins and Aspen has a hamster.

    ❤well actually I see many expats do adopt a non pedigree dog instead of buying one which I agree is totally unaffordable. Yea so unstandardized but owning small pets like those truly is no brainer. I myself own an aquarium downsized. I used to think a dog lives only a decade and it's emotional after that.

    Yeah, we have looked into it but it’s a big commitment and we aren’t quite ready for that at the moment. So we’ll just do dog sitting for our friends at the moment.
