My adventurous family decided to go on a trip to Malacca. We rented a vehicle and drove towards Malacca. The whole journey took about 3-4 hours. We also made a pit-stop at Muar to hunt for the infamous Muar otah otah. This is my first visit to Malacca and I enjoyed it throughly, sans the mild haze on the first 2 days from Sumatra.
Malacca is a shopaholics paradise. We stayed at Hatten Hotel - it has a prime location. Very centralized. It has undergorund links to 3 major shopping malls with many surrounding eateries and common amenities.

On the first night, we visited Ann's Kitchen. It is a local penarakan restaurant that serves delectable and authentic Penerakan cuisine! The head chef - Mdm Ann was even invited to NY to cook at a United Nations event!

On the 2nd night, we visited the infamous Jonker street. It has a
traditional 1960s vibe. Retro music permeates the whole environment. A
leisurely stroll along the streets leads to interesting sights of street food, trinkets and local produce.
