25 April 2015: Loi's Beef & Bakuteh Taman Perkota,  Melaka, Malaysia. According to my friend who brought me here, this place usually is full/ packed with people, maybe today due to heavy rain, so less people having dinner over here. Oh well ~!  I admit, we are a little crazy, drove all the way from Kuala Lumpur, it took around 1 hour plus due to rain, and a little jam to arrive this destination, just for a dinner here, my friend was craving for it. He's crazier, he's the driver, he's the one who is craving for the BEEF kuteh (Nice name? I just invented a nickname..... . LOL), but I have to thank him for fetching, and sending us, he's also the one who introduced me this unique place. Beef Bakuteh People who enjoy soup with lots of pepper, you may try on this Bakuteh (Pork) For people who prefer lighter taste soup, you may order this Business Hours: 10:30 a.m. - 2 p.m. 6 p.m. - 10 p.m. Loi's ...

28 March 2015: I went to Melacca (Melaka) for work during the weekend, and the hotel I wanted to book was fully booked, so I came across to Mimosa Hotel at booking.com , which it's very near to Joker Street, walking distance around 5 minutes away. I stayed in an executive room, per night around RM246 with bathtub, but sadly the bathtub are not functional, the water keeps leaking. It may be our bad day as the day we visited, they are having water pressure issues as they are dealing with the plumber, and nothing they can do much because the entire floor are affected by the same issue. The room is with window view, width room space which I really love the most with cooling air conditional, but the LED screen TV is a little small. I can only rate this hotel for 2 stars, as their service are not as what I expected.

31 August 2014: There is 1 unique shop name Red Handicrafts, you will notice it's on your left while you walk towards Jonker Street from  Casa  Del Rio Melaka . What do they sell? They sell handicrafts, traditional Chinese paper crafts, old paper planes, playing cards with some traditional images, and so many more. This shop has attracted me, so many things I never see before and some are things that we used to own, but due to current technology change, we don't keep them anymore.

31 August 2014: Today my   and I came to Malacca for a 1 day trip, it's funny, and very sweet memory trip. We started our journey around 10:30am, from Subang Jaya, Selangor. On the way to Malacca , we had our Subway sandwich in the car, listen to music, and shared some jokes. Time flies, and we arrive Malacca around 12pm due to some jam around Seremban highway . When we were entering Jonker Street, there is a jam near Jonker Gallery. Our car was stuck at the cornering for about 15 - 30 minutes, I managed to walk down the car, walked towards the shop just right in front of me, chosen and bought some delicious biscuits and get back into the car. We parked our car at a car park, it's just right in front of Casa Del Rio Melaka (Address:  88, Jalan Laksamana 1, 75200 Melaka.).  It's RM3 per entrance, RM5 for weekend & public holiday. Walking distance towards Jonker Street are very near, it's very convenient too. We would not mis...
