Day 2: Birthday in Malacca, whee~


Going to start the post with a pic of our hotel room in CK Hotel. We 3 girls got to share the huge deluxe triple room, it was actually quite huge, we shld have just 5 of us shared one room and put extra mattresses for the guys.. hahaha.. they got a standard single room with 2 single beds and faulty air conditioning instead :P Our room was so huge that i had to put on my glasses to see the tv screen properly cos it was right at the other side of the room.. @.@~ I liked the room pretty much cos it was clean and spacious with very minimal furniture :)

After we got back from Melaka Sentral, it was bath time and we were all set to watch the Miss Astro Chinese International 2010 edition on tv, had lots of fun commenting on the contestants and cheering my ex-classmate on (she won third place :D) and i was all ready to turn in when someone said they wanted supper O.o.. personally i was quite full already but still ended up devouring a few sticks of:-

Satay Celup!!I think its the 4th time i've had it and its still just as yummy~ :) we didnt manage to eat a lot tho since it was already almost midnight and dinner was only half digested then.. haha..

Played a few rounds of BigD, we had the foresight to bring playing cards, heh! then it was time for bed... Day 2 began with us searching for brunch in town.. decided to pay a visit to the dataran pahlawan/ mahkota parade area for some air conditioned window shopping.. As usual, it took us quite some time to find parking spots but in the end we managed to get 2 spots right beside each other~

Chicken rice balls at a shop called Classic Chicken Rice, cute eh! I'd had them before someplace else and didnt really like them then, i felt that the normal hainanese chicken rice tasted better but this version seemed much tastier~

whats chicken rice without the chicken :P

the sets also came with soup and vege.. perfect~!

After brunch, we explored round the malls, there are quite a few malls all linked to each other and it took us quite some time to go one full circle.. Jo's bf oso wanted to look for an iphone 4 at the maxis stores there cos it was all sold out in kl and pj at that time.. turned out malacca was out of stock as well, hehehe...

saw a cute x'mas performance.. very catchy kiddy x'mas songs~~

Think that's the end of our makan-makan trip?? Noooo... of course not! It was my idea to bring the everyone to Dataran Pahlawan for cake and ice :D:D:D Thanks to my Mayyi, a.k.a Lady Boss, i'd found out abt this place on my last trip down :)

First up, the famous original mille crepe cakes that i've fallen in love with since my first try at Food Foundry, but nothing beats having the original!! In fact, after trying Humble Beginnings and Food Foundry, Nadeje Patisserie still wins hands down cos of the larger slices, yummy toppings and super reasonable prices~! :) They also have air-con and wifi and games and comfy sofas, whats not to like?!

Disclaimer!!!! The last time i came, each and every cake was sold out :S:S:S

Orange Chocolate~

Mango~ I think this was the special of the day cos cant see it on the menu..

Banana Chocolate~

Tiramisu~

Looking so pretty in a row.. dunno which one i prefer more.. next time i wanna try the milk tea and green tea flavours, if there is a next time, hehe..

After 4 slices for 5 of us, we became greedy and ordered another, strawberry chocolate~

RM60 away from a free slice of cake.. :*

We conquered Nadeje! Yippee~!

the design on the floor is sooo pretty... :)

Still at Dataran Pahlawan, another place i wanted to revisit - Pinkberry! Lots of lots of icy desserts to choose from, and it was very apt cos of the hot hot weather~

Cendol that tasted much better the Jonker88 ones and only RM1 pricier for such a huge bowl.. the one on the left had extra durian topping.. yums~

Mango ice..!

and the balls are actually honeydew balls, kind of looks like the chicken rice balls from earlier. lol..

The perfect end to our foodie trip, i think we managed to cover most of if not all of the famous must try food in Malacca that weekend :D started our journey back to KL in the late afternoon and it was late evening by the time we got back.. Had dinner somewhere in PJ and went back to collapse into bed~! my poor guy still had to drive back to Klang alone, the poor thing... :P

What an amazing birthday weekend~! *satisfied smile*
