I'm not a fan of umbrellas but in Melaka, better use one when you're exploring the streets during the hot days.
wa car thing... i no understand.. if car need 5 hr..... bus will be.....PS, PS!
6.15am. Corrected to the actual time liao.
So took 5 hour plus to reach Hatten. So many heavy vehicles and coaches on the Lane 2, so end up pushing others and being pushed by others on Lane 1. Luckily added a DPF cleaner yesterday before pumping full tank. Should have regenerated my DPF filter, hopefully.
Bus got Lorry and Bus lane, so would have been able to clear Custom and Immigration faster.

The staff manning the vehicle counters were all working slowly and at a leisurely pace, thus contributing to the jam.
This was the same for my trip back yesterday. And SG immigration decided to play punk by opening only A1 for vehicles while A2 was closed. So Tuas jammed badly for both MY and SG side. Took me more than 5 hours to drive from Melaka back to my place.

But there used to be a famous putu piring joint there too...
Restoran Tong Sheng now got aircon, tried chili crab before, not bad.@Aaagogo
Apparently the place to go for Nyonya chang, but I've only bought from them once. The second time was a weekend and they claimed to be "fully booked" asking us to place a deposit for collection on Monday. Went off to buy from one of the first shops along Jonker Street and found it just as good especially without any hassle. (P.S. I'm more a bak chang person, love all the different ingredients and texture

Sun May Hiong Satay House (walkable from Jonker) has been my must-have since I started staying at Casa del Rio, and even when I "moved" to DoubleTree@Hilton.
Baba Charlie for Nyonya kueh, but I've not had a chance to go there. The thought of going that direction just for some kueh...
Over somewhere behind Hatten Hotel, there's a (then) famous zichar as well, what cheese beehoon and the likes. Same, not had a chance to be there myself. (Restoran Tong Sheng)
The Klang bak kut teh that I used to have over at "the other side?" moved to Hatten's back area as well... I think just before the pandemic but don't know where they are now.
Oh, Pak Putra Tandoori. Another famous place but I just never get the chance to stop by so far. That area too, an asam pedas place across from Casa del Rio Residences (next to the hotel) that attracted crowds from the other states as well. One of my regular haunts as well. (Not one of those claypot type further down from Pak Putra.)
Of course, above foods could probably be found at some smaller joints as always, just some thoughts while waiting for you to show us your makan spree.
Ya, back then BKT opened for breakfast then closed after lunch. Then opened again for dinner.
My last last trip (last October) I had gone to Sun May Hiong when we just arrived, but found the satay tough and the sauce not as good.@Aaagogo

I really have to make a trip there. Macam my kampung, missing it lots.
I can't find the one I used to go preC19 before they moved. Can't recall the name but will know if I see, but can't find...
Woah so big shot, ask hotel not grabI can't find the one I used to go preC19 before they moved. Can't recall the name but will know if I see, but can't find...
Used to go only for dinner, and remember once when it's quite late plus that area was rather quiet, by the time we finished, that we'd to call the hotel for someone to pick us up.
Wa bro next time wan to walk in boleh land either wear those sleeves like golfers use or put alot of sunblock. Not too gd to kena such heat often ah.
Why not rent a car in JB?
Driving the highway is fine.
