Nyonya food outlets everywhere in Malacca these days.

Most absolutely rubbish but this one looks good.

Will try.

 

But really for me I want pork dishes as well.

Thanks to a friend who shared the location of this satay shop, I had an enjoyable lunch before driving back.

Located among a row of shops along Jln Portugis, Xiang Ji's satay sauce was thicker, sticks were meatier. The warm, freshly grilled fish otah was spicy & firm.

I had mix of 20 pork & intestines satay, 5 otahs plus rice....so shiok arh! Fat die me liao

Wow, long time never had liver satay.

Ya, there's liver satay too. Shall try it next time.

Thanks, that area is very crowded on weekends. I usually avoid going there.

 

There is a coffee shop around kampung lapan selling very nice chicken wings, grilled style. The same coffee shop also sell wanton noodles and fried oyster. Not bad.

Drive via Jln Kubu, Turn Right", pass Hallmark hotel into Jln Portugis & park at one of the privately manned carparks & short walk to the night market.

This way, u can avoid the jams along Jonker St.

Honestly nothing much in Batu Pahat.... not worth to waste money to stay overnight.... if you really want, may refer to the following to get ideas.... I will rather spend more time in Melaka........ If you like dogs, you may like to go to Huskey Cafe in Melaka..... worth a visit..... if you want to make it interesting.... IMO..... Go straight to Melaka.... on the way back..... leave early.... pop by Batu Pahat and MUAR.... so that you can buy otak or other food back........ Have a good trip......

Melaka is only 2.5 to 3 hrs drive from Singapore.  No need stop over for a nite.  Maybe stop over for toilet break or quick breakfast.

 

I think Kluang may be more interesting than Batu Pahat, there's a UK farm (can stay overnite) and Zenxin organic farm in Kluang.   Can try these in Kluang town:  Kluang Railway coffee/Nasi Lemak (although I tried, I find not nice wahhahaah), beef noodles, dimsum and etc.

Melaka is only 2.5 to 3 hrs drive from Singapore. 

 

When I see this I always wonder if the timing is say Orchard Rd to say Jonkers St.

All inclusive of crossing the Causeway or at Tuas.

 

And is it at 3am ish.

 

Please clarify.

[RCTP]

I did my trip in slightly below 3 hours. 3 hours is from after crossing Malaysia side of Tuas checkpoint at 1pm on a Friday afternoon with a stop at Yong Peng for lunch.

Usually when ppl quote the timing, it does not include causeway crossing. Because causeway timing varies. It is just the driving from causeway to the destination.
