Melaka Nyonya Food 马六甲娘惹餐

fr3eze (68)in #food • 7 years ago (edited)

The most signature food in Melaka would be the Nyonya cuisine, or Peranakan cuisine.

Peranakan or Nyonya cuisine comes from the Peranakans, descendants of early Chinese migrants who settled in Penang, Malacca, Singapore and Indonesia inter-marrying with local Malays and combines Chinese, Malay and other influences.

We were going to visit this restaurant claiming to serve authentic Nyonya food in town, the Nancy's Kitchen.

娘惹餐是马六甲的招牌菜色。娘惹文化可以追溯到早期近1800，中国华人南下移民定居于槟城，马六甲，新加坡和印尼，和当地的马来土著的结合而衍生出来的文化。所以娘惹等于是华人和马来人的结合体。今日来到马六甲城中有名的娘惹餐馆，Nancy's Kitchen。

The typical Nyonya style lantern, which is much different from the typical Chinese lantern. The price of making one was costly since the procedure is complicated and hand-made only.

典型的娘惹式灯笼，很明显的和传统的华人灯笼不一样。听说由于纯手工制作，程序繁重，价格也不菲。

The mixed culture of Malay and Chinese can be clearly seen in the decorations as well.

墙上的装饰也可看出结合了中华和马来文化。

The Food

Babi Pongteh (Pork with bean paste). Stew pork in slated yellow bean cooked with preserved soya bean and dark sweet soya sauce sugar and other ingredients. Best to serve with sambal belacan dip.

娘惹豆鼓马铃薯燜雞, 配上特制的辣椒虾酱风味最佳。

Ayam Rendang (Rendang Chicken). A famous dish among the Malaya in early century. The chicken cooked with raw spices like lemon grass, galangal, cumin, turmenic and fried coconut.

仁当鸡在新马两地可是鼎鼎有名的，也算是最历史悠久的一道菜。

Sambal Udang Petai (Sambal Prawn with bitter bean). Prawn cooked with chilli paste and bitter bean.

叁峇臭豆虾，我的最爱之一。

The Kangkung Belacan (Water Spinach Fried Belacan). Vegetable stir fry with fermented shrimp paste.

惹味马来盏，空心菜炒叁峇酱，家常菜之一。

Cincalok Telur(Fried Egg Cincalok). Omelette fried with fermented shrimp.

娘惹式煎蛋，没什么特别的。

总的来说，这间店的性价比还是不错的，七个人消费 RM100 。味道也和从小吃到大的没太大出入，不熟悉娘惹餐的我表示原来平常吃的家常菜就是娘惹风味了啊。

Address: 13, Jalan KL 3/8, Taman Kota Laksamana, 75200 Melaka, Malaysia

Lastly, happy birthday to my dad!

对娘惹文化的印象来自于电视剧《小娘惹》，特别喜欢祠堂匾额上“追远”这两个字，主题曲《如燕》也很好听啊

Personally, I think the food is nice and filled with flavors, sweet, sour, spicy, all with unique taste and texture. From time to time will visit nyonya restaurant at my hometown, Penang.
