Food list:
Chicken Rice Ball
In Malacca, the rice is served in balls rather than in bowls; this dish is commonly known as Chicken rice balls. Steamed rice is shaped into golf ball-sized orbs and served alongside the chopped chicken.
Nyonya Laksa
Nyonya laksa is a typical Nyonya or Peranakan curry noodles dish. The amazing broth of this curry laksa or a.k.a curry mee is a combination of a special chilli paste and rich coconut milk.
PoPiah
The Unsung Spring Roll - Nyonya Popiah 薄饼 (Fresh Egg Vegetable Rolls) ... Popiah or Poh Piah is what we South East Asian Chinese considered as the goto spring roll of choice. Instead of having them deep fried, you get fresh egg pancake rolls, filled with delicious vegetables and meat mixtures.
Satay Celup
Satay celup is a traditional Malaysian dish, particularly popular in the Malacca state (also known as "the historic state"), where it is considered a local favorite. It is a self-serve dish, consisting of skewers of marinated meat, raw seafood, or even vegetables that are dunked into a simmering pot of satay sauce.
Portuguese Seafood
J & J Corner is located at the popular food centre at the Portuguese Settlement. I have not been here for at least 20 years and the seafood restaurants were then wooden houses on stilts instead of this contemporary food centre.
There are 10 Portuguese style seafood stalls here, prominently numbered 1 to 10. The type of food offered by the stalls are similar but each have their closely guarded recipes and following. This style of cuisine is unique to the Kristang community here which are descendants of Portuguese and local marriages during the century of Portuguese rule from 1511 to 1641.
The dish we ordered was baked fish (red snapper) calamari fritters and garlic prawn.
