Try [[Peranakan]] or Baba-Nyonya food, which is uncommercialised and confined to the kitchens of old grandmothers. The dishes are slightly different from that of the Penang Peranakan. Usual ones include '''ayam pongteh''' (chicken in bean sauce, originally cooked with pork) and '''ayam buah keluak''' (chicken cooked with a bitter fruit) and a desserts.
 
Another famous Malacca dish is what is commonly called '''chicken rice ball'''. Although it is called '''Hainanese chicken rice''', it is not from Hainan, China, but invented by the Hainanese immigrants to Malaysia a long time ago. The chicken for this dish is very much the same as the boiled chicken offered throughout Malaysia; what is unique is the rice - it comes in ping-pong sized balls.
 
Yet another Malaccan speciality is '''satay celup'''. It is like '''lok-lok''' found in other parts of the country but instead of dipping your skewered into boiling water, you dip them into a boiling vat of satay sauce.
 
Portuguese-Eurasian food. The greatest concentration of outlets will be at the Portuguese Settlement. Seafood is popular, as is the fiery "devil curries".
 
 
 
Don't miss the '''''cendol''''' ("chen-dul"), a sweet dessert of coconut milk, lurid green noodles and ''gula Melaka'' (Malacca sugar).
