Lunch @ Donald & Lily's Corner Melacca

During my stays in Melacca on new year, i was tempted for Baba Nyoya food. Steven, me and his mum was wandering around Jonker Street and we decided to go to Donald & Lily's Corner.
Donald & Lily’s Corner is located at Jalan Tan Cheng Lock (Heeren Street), within walking distance from Jonker Street and the reddish Dutch Square. However, the location of Donald & Lily’s Corner is less noticeable. You must walk to the back of Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, or go to Kota Laksamana car park, and you can find Donald & Lily’s Corner . The dining area is located at the upstair of an old house built before World War II. During weekend lunch hours, please expect to wait for a long queue.

Shaved ice, topped with a palm sugar syrup so real tasting is it amazing. Mix it up to reveal mung bean noodles, beans and sago.


The making of Cendol

Asam Fish. The fish tasted good, but i can't taste any asam. It was more curry taste than asam. Probably they have put too much of curry powder in it.

Tau Kua Rojak (RM 3.50) is another worth-mentioning dish. It’s a dish of bean curds (tau kua), cucumbers and pineapples topped with rojak sauce.

Pongteh Chicken. No comment. Quite tasty! :)

Nyonya Laksa (RM 3.20) is undeniably the signature dish here. Nyonya laksa is enriched with various spices but cooked without curry powder.

When you order Pongteh Chicken, Asam Fish, rice provided with FOC.
