Guidebook for Malacca
Food Scene
Amy Heritage Nyonya Cuisine Restaurant serves Nonya cuisine. It is also known as Peranakan in which it combines Chinese and Malaysian dish. The Peranakan food here is noted as one of the best in the land of Malacca, cooked with fresh ingredients and authentic recipes. Recommended dishes include Nyonya pai tee (crispy deep-fried puff stuffed with vegetables) and chap chai (mixed stir fry vegetables in bean paste) but seriously, everything on the menu is worth your time (and tummy space) too!

Nancy’s Kitchen has long been the number one place to go for good Nyonya food in Jonker Walk and moved to Taman Kota Laksamana. Its atmosphere isn’t at all pretentious - it’s like stepping into a friendly neighbour’s dining room for some delicious food, and dishes come piping hot from the kitchen. Try out their sek bak (braised pork) and sambal sotong petai (sambal squid with bitter beans) with white rice for the ultimate finger-licking experience. A note though; Nancy’s Kitchen is not a Halal eatery so Muslims might want to head to other Nyonya restaurants.

This historical fort was built by the Portuguese in 1511 after they defeated the Malacca Sultanate. On 1641, it fell to the Dutch and subsequently in the early 19th century to the British.
