Strategically Located Hotel
I recently stayed at Hatten Hotel Malacca and had a wonderful experience. The hotel location make it a perfect base to explore Malacca. It is located in the heart of historical Malacca and within walking distance to the famous Jonker Street.
Checking in was a breeze. The staff was friendly and efficient. The room was spacious and clean. Toiletries and coffee and tea making facilities os provided. Bed was very comfortable and the pillows are plush.
The breakfast spread was sumptous and wonderful. The variety of food displayed was just acceptable. Hatten hotel also offers complete recreational facilities such as a pool and fitness center.

Delicious Contemporary Japanese Food
Jypsy which is located at One Fullerton is a contemporary Japanese restaurant. With its outdoor seating, you get to enjoy your food with a stunning harbour view. Try to plan your dinner time to coincide with the MBS watershow. The view of MBS, the harbour, the watershow and the light display is spectacular.
The menu at Jypsy is sure to please any palate. They provide a wide range of dishes to choose from. We start off our meal with beef and garlic tsukune stick. Beef was so tender paired with an amazing sauce. We then had spicy lobster roll which have a very unique flavour. We shared 2 mains. Takoyaki lovers will love the Ika pizza. It was packed with calamari and the bread crust was soft. The prawn and unagi aglo olio was flavourful. The prawn was fresh and the unagi just melt in our mouth.
We paid abt SGD100 per person for all the food with three drinks. Service was fast and we need not wait long for our food to arrive.

Colourful and Vibrant Night Market
Jonker Walk is in the Chinatown area in Malacca. It starts from across Malacca River and the street is filled with historical houses along its left and right sides. Many of which are shops selling antiques, textiles, foods, handicrafts and souvenirs such as keychains and shirts.
Jonker Walk turns into a night market every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 6 p.m. until 12 midnight. Dont worry about safety as its street blocked for traffic.
There are a huge range of wonderful things to buy and eat here. You’ll find stalls selling everything from souvenirs, food produce, clothing, toys, jewellery and accessories, temporary tattoos, art prints. Food such as coconut ice-cream, curried fish balls, pineapple tart and steamed buns can be found here. There are so many things to do and eat at Jonker Street Night Market.
We found many stalls at Jonker Street Night Market selling very unique gifts that we’ve not seen before in any other night market in south east Asia and we would say Jonker Street is definitely one of our favourites.

Nami Island Stunning Foliage
We visited Nami Island in Autumn and it was absolutely stunning. Autumn is filled with golden foliage and cooler temperatures from September to November. We heard from our guide that Nami Island is excellent all year but the most popular times are Autumn for the stunning foliage.
It is the season that brings happiness to faces just by looking at their surroundings. Experiencing Nami Island in Autumn will just take your breath away. With the stunning natural beauty of Nami Island, you will get mesmerized. Specially because of the vibrant colors of the leaves during the fall season which gives it a lively atmosphere. With this in mind, you might want to get your camera prepared! Because this is indeed a picturesque place, where it is worth to take many pictures. However, do come early as Nami Island get pretty crowded very fast.
