:: Perkampungan Ikar Bakar Terapung, Umbai ::

During one fine crazy weekend in this year [ i forgot the exact date], we managed to get a taste of Umbai. To be exact, we went to Perkampungan Ikan Bakar Terapung Umbai. For those who don’t know, Umbai is a famous travelling spot in Melaka where you can experience a great taste of seafood.

Terapung tak??

I was relieved that we reached there earlier because when we got out, the place was jam packed with cars trying to get in. One of the best things about these place are that you get to choose your own fishes and crustaceans. You also can decide on how your seafood are going to be prepared. Be it steam, grill, or anything...!

:: Perkampungan Ikan Bakar, Alai ::

Last month, during Ramadhan, i went to Alai, another famous spot for Ikan Bakar to try their seafood. It is true what I've heard, their food is much better and more delicious than Umbai's. Their seafood is more fresh, [we know from their look and the taste after being cooked] It's not that Umbai's food is not delicious, it's just that Alai's is better...go and try them for yourself!!

The fish were well grilled. Charcoal crispy on the outside but moist and soft on the inside. That's the makings of a good ikan bakar...!!!

People called these "skallop" [not sure the spelling..heh]
We opt for ' skallop goreng kunyit'. [sedap sangat] It's my first time eating this thing.

In Melaka, people usually eat the seafood by itself or with nasi lemak because they are more delicious than eating with the rice. That's what they said.

One more thing: see the picture on the left. it's called sepahat. Only available in Melaka. It's a species of 'siput' in bamboo shape. Very-very unique. It is taste like kerang + ketam. [what the?? ] Undescribable taste, but very nice, heh

When you want to try sepahat, go for sepahat goreng bercili. [drooling]

That's all... i'm going to continue studying...daaaa~
