Nice and comfortable hotel, decent breakfast, has a pool and about 10 minutes walk to the town center.
Bulldog’s food then doesn’t quite live up to the hype (except their cendol). I’m perhaps spoiled in that my wife and in-laws cook nyonya food very well, including doing vegetarian versions for me, so you might find it more exciting a culinary experience.
Pancakes, croissants and more!
Reasons to visit Bulldog Malacca: cool, clean and contemporary setting; an excellent introduction to Nyonya cuisine; must must must order the Lamb Shank Keluak and Cendol.
I've been to Donald & Lily countless time, and they've never failed to disappoint me so far :) But again, taste is subjective. Try at your own risk!
I love the interior! Bila pindah rumah nanti, memang nk ada elemen pokok pokok ni. (Eh lupa lah ada anak kecik, hihihi) It reminds me on an organic cafe I pergi di Seminyak, Bali.
Next up, we order a signature Peranakan dish called Nasi Ayam Pongtay RM11.00 featuring blue rice (pea flower) serves with mixed vegetables and a bowl of braised chicken. The blue rice is warm and fragrant, mixed vegetables deems to be quite salty where we only manage to taste the “Kicap” (soy sauce) flavor, while Ayam Pongtay for us is a pure disaster, although chicken is braised to perfection yet the taste is super-duper salty, tongue feels numb right after sipping onto the Pongtay Kuah (highly suspects is an overnights cooking result), can’t even proceed after the first scoop so we decide to raise white flag and leave it there as per it is, seriously feel like “Ketuk” the chef with a ladle and ask them dah bangun ke belum?! 😉

French Toast with Teh Tarik Sauce RM18 French Toast with Teh Tarik Sauce – Like a dessert like a brunch. Lol. Lightly crisp outside, fluffy soft inside egg-coated French toast, topped with strawberry, teh tarik crumble and a scoop of ice cream. Glaze it with Sharing Plates home made teh tarik sauce!
Service at Donald & Lily Restaurant is partially self-service. Staff are quick to seat you and take orders, displaying decent product knowledge on the menu, but you'll have to self-help for cutlery.
