Satay Celup

What better to do than to have a demo in Melaka on a Saturday morning so one can wake up at 0600hrs handle the call of nature and shoot down south. Demo was at 1100hrs. Location: Mahkota Medical.

Now the exciting part...after the demo we, Adrian and I, were brought to Medan Pahlawan which is the latest shopping centre located underground beneath the padang. It has 480 shoplots. Amazing by our standards. After some window shopping we were hungry and thirsty. It was a hot sunny afternoon.

We first had to have the Chicken Rice Ball which is a must have whenever in Melaka. It's not the best chicken rice...my late ah poh can cook better. In fact i was first introduced to chichken rice balls by her. It's a hainanese way of preparing rice for long trips. Easier to eat a ball of rice than to fiddle with forks and spoons or chopsticks while travelling in a carriage, bus or car.

Later about 5ish we had Satay Celup and coconut water which was something different. It's luk luk without the water and in place of water is satay sauce. It was...quite interesting but best of all was the coconut water. People actually line up for this stuff and they are willing to stand on the street while waiting for a place.

Was it that good? Boleh tahan la...
