Melaka - Handsome Restaurant

As the name reveals, this restaurant caters for the handsome chaps and being ugly I can only be thankful that in our midst we had some handsome chaps that could bring us into the restaurant. 

There wasn't a crowd and we were the first customers for the evening - at 5pm.

We took the boss' cue to order a few popular dishes - cereal squid (calamari), chili scallop, winter melon soup and importantly salted egg crabs (yes - again)

If I remembered clearly, this was the third meal we had in like two hours but nothing wasted caused the food was really good.

For friends who visit Malacca, do drop in to check out their seafood. 

Salted Egg Crabs in Gelang Patah

A 15 minutes drive through the Second Link leads you to a small town called Gelang Patah and there you'll find Tian Lai, a seafood restaurant which serves pretty good seafood at decent prices. 

Lunch was good and being the first few customers, it was easy parking right in front of the restaurant. 

Greedy us also ordered a traditional steamed fish, frog legs and stir fried clams in chili.

The queue leading up into the restaurant was kind of orderly. Afterall, we are Singaporeans.

Ok. Not quite as there were a number of Japanese in line too.

This means that the food must be pretty good that even local Japanese are willing to wait out for a meal.

Too be honest, I'm not so much of a tempura fan but this one is good. The sauce that was poured over the hot rice and freshly made tempura was surely an experience for me.

Watching the chefs carefully lining up the ingredients in the bowl was fascinating.
