Food Hunt: Baba Low Restaurant, Jalan Tengkera, Malacca

Hi All,

Welcome back to yet another edition of Food Hunt. Today ME & Kimmy had apparently visited Malacca to hunt for food and this is our main purpose to come here. We search and ask through our friends what food is nice in Malacca and we are set to go. After we reached Malacca at about 1.45pm, we then proceed to look for our lunch and Baba Low Restaurant is our choice. This restaurant is located along Jalan Tengkera and what is this restaurant famous for? This restaurant is famous for its Nyonya Laksa Noodles. Besides they stall is selling Nyonya Laksa, they also sell Mee Siam, Popiah and Pai Tee. I heard all of the food here is nice and the signature food would be the Nyonya Laksa.

We reach Baba Low's at about 2.00pm and the place is not crowded as it's already pass the peak lunch hour. We went straight to the counter and order what food we want. This is what we've ordered:

1.) Nyonya Laksa X 2 (RM4.00 per bowl)
2.) Barley Ice X 2 (RM1.30 per cup)

We did not have to wait long and the food and drinks arrived in the same times after 5 minutes waiting. Good service though. The Nyonya Laksa looks tempting as the gravy looks thick and nice before I try it. After I put into my mouth, the taste was nice and special as it's spicy and salty and it's totally different from our Curry Laksa here. It's something new that we have not tried back here in Kuala Lumpur and it's a good recommendation from my friends. The Barley Ice meanwhile is nice too and not too sweet. It's a homemade Barley Ice and it's healthy too.

Barley Ice (RM1.30)

Nyonya Laksa (RM4.00)

The price we pay is around RM10.60 for a simple meal and I must say the portion of the Nyonya Laksa is small and for guys you would at least ordered 2 bowls to satisfy your cravings. The price is acceptable and I would strongly recommend you to come over here to try out the Nyonya Laksa as well as other food here including the Mee Siam, Popiah and Pai Tee as they are equally nice too (as recommended by my friends). There goes our 1st Day Lunch at Malacca. Enjoy your meal. MY RATING: 4/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 4/5
