Malacca Nov 2025

First stop before Malacca - Mui Thye coffeeshop in Ayer Hitam. Needed some strong coffee. Hubby loved his pig stomach bee hoon soup. I like the bun but the coffee was not as strong as I wanted.

The meat bun is now. 

A 4 hr ride to Malacca with half an hour stop.

Warm welcome to the Casa Del Rio hotel with a shaved ice ginger and lime dessert. The room is not ready so going for lunch.

Grab to the restaurant is less than RM7. Lunch at FUGO RYORI @ Melaka Raya.

Recommended

Highly recommended Foie Gras with a crisp that melt in the mouth.

Tender and fresh Toro (Tuna Belly)

Wagyu steak with fat that burst in your mouth with a fragrance.

Good service

Not Recommended 

Cheese Hotate - Cheese too thick. Prefer Singapore's version which is lighter.

The deco on the bed is so nice to celebrate our32nd wedding anniversary. Nice view of the river from the balcony. Complimentary snacks and drinks from the hotel. Spacious toilet with standing shower and bathtub. Nice decor in the room too.

The library has complimentary coffee, tea and cookies. You can enjoy reading the books or play the board game. There is an infinity pool with a bar on level 3. 

Ordered via Grab the famous BUNGA RAYA POPIAH with passion fruit and waterchestnut drinks. No bad but think they added too much sweet sauce. The crunch of the fried lard made it unique.

Gotten a stick of corn, fried cempuduk and rambutan from the Tues pasar Malam

Went to the Oceanarium. Not as awesome as Siam in Thailand but they took nice photos

The Oceanarium at Shore Shopping Mall. Too bad the sky bridge is closed cos it rained earlier. 

Took a grab car to Bei Zhen, one of the popular Teochew Chinese restaurant. 

Ordered shark fin soup, steamed fish in Teochew style and Garlic spinach.
