Melaka, Malaysia – The Food

IMG_0526

Malaysia (and Singapore) are about the food.  In Malaysia, food is generally inexpensive and really good.  The main foods are Malay, Indian, and (localized) Chinese.  I like the localized Chinese food in Malaysia better than mainland Chinese food.

The picture above is an Indian restaurant we had dinner at 2 of the 4 nights we were in Melaka.  The claim to fame of this place is the tandoori chicken.  It’s the best I’ve had. All of the dishes we had here were outstanding.  If you end up in Melaka, you must go to this place, bit you have to know the name, all the taxi drivers know it.  Just don’t the taxi driver rip you off.  they are pretty good at that!

Here’s a close-up of the Chicken.  Notice the clay colored tall jar to the left of the chicken, this is used to warm the chicken and it’s also a clay naan oven.  If you go to Melaka, don’t miss this place.
