Shitoya @ Melaka

This is another post contributed by Dr Neoh

Melaka is one of my favourite town in Malaysia which I visit frequently and regularly. This recent visit, my non-veg friend GL brought me to her favourite vegetarian restaurant Shitoya.

Customers are required to take of their shoes before entering. It's like you are entering your friend's house.

The location could be a bit of challenge to find, although it is actually not far away from tourist spots like Jonker walk. GPS, Waze and/or Google Maps would be indespensible unless you are local.

Since GL is a local, we have no problem locating this joint.

There is no barrier between the dining area and the kitchen; again, as if you were in your friend's house.


The decorations gave a homey feeling.

As stated in the cover of the menu, please be patient, as the chef/owner is not professionally trained, and not able to handle two or three woks at a time!



As a regular, GL called before our arrival, so that the steam boat sets were already set up when we arrived. 



We ordered "Vampire Fried Rice" on the spot. "Vampire" pronunciatino in Mandarin sounds like "shredded ginger" (僵尸 vs 姜丝), and it also imply that it is without garlic. 





We also had a bowl of salad, and a serving of roasted vegetable rolls as side dishes.
In conclusion, Shitoya is a restaurant with homey feel, relaxing environment and nice food. Most dishes are priced between RM12 to RM20, which I think it's quite reasonable for the quality.

Malaysia - Malacca - Yang Sheng Vegetarian Restaurant Sdn

Thanks to my cuz wendy sis for her input. Over the weekend, she and her friends went to Malacca for a short trip. I've heard my parents rave about how this this place was, but didn't have a chance to visit. Anyway, Yang Sheng is one of the places that my parents recommend. Despite Malacca being the 3rd smallest state in Malaysia, it has quite a number of vegetarian restaurants, which I think is good!
Crackers

Free crackers to munch.. Nice, crunchy and not oily..

Tom Yum Fish RM 12

Ingredients comprise of some fish slices, cabbage, long beans, ladies finger, pineapples and tau pok. Soup tasted average, however tom yum shouldnt have tau pok as it would seem like veg. curry.

Chili Kang Kong RM 7

This dish was quite oily and it tasted sweet instead of spicy.. not to my liking though. If you do not take spicy food, this is definitely ok for you.

Claypot tofu RM 9

Colourful dish. Comprise of Fried tofu cubes served with mushrooms, tomatoes and capsicums. Tasted normal, but definitely cheaper than those you can find in Singapore!

Fried Abalone Mushrooms RM7


Really good dish. Very crispy and fresh abalone mushrooms. The chili dip was a plus!

One of the places you can consider if you do visit Malacca someday!
