Kota Melaka.... Asam Pedas Today...
Assalamualaikum w.b.t.,
I'm in Melaka now and hopefully until monday. My last visit to Melaka was 6 year ago and having a good "ikan bakar dinner" at Umbai and Serkam. I'm sick yesterday due to throat infection. Just getting better after took medicine from Elis Clinic, Melaka. Having a lunch at Nasi Ayam Singapore not far away from Hang Jebat Stadium. Taste fine (average). Here everything about nasi ayam including nasi goreng ayam.
Melaka is paradise for Asam Pedas. Browse through recommendation in internet for asam pedas which were most recommended for Hajjah Mona and Abg Piee. So for today dinner we went to Hajjah Mona Asam Pedas since its location is available in GPS. Asam pedas usually cook in many ways, but the taste should consist of "pedas" and "asam". Lady finger (bendi) also usually added as a mixture of asam pedas.
Asam pedas Hajjah Mona is served together with white rice, bean sprout and salty egg. We ordered asam pedas pari, asam pedas tenggiri, asam pedas meat and fried chicken.

A bit suprise, the asam pedas is not hot or "pedas" and no lady finger inside. Different peope have different views. For Hajjah Mona Asam Pedas, the taste is just average. Price reasonable. If people ask me about this restaurant, I'm not recommend at all and should try other asam pedas restaurant in Melaka.
What can you see from the picture below? Four "Kul" on the wall together with others... My wife said, usually people put this "ayat" to protect their business against "sihir" or to get barakah from it or to show the restaurant is halal..
I still don't understand how Islam way of life can co-exist with secular practice culture. How can we get the "barakah" if rock song and many workers including the casher (owner family) not covered their "aurat". I believe Hajjah Mona can do something, hopefully other people especially non-muslim won't mis-understood the prettiness of Islam as a way of life. Hajjah means fullfilness the fifth of Islamic Principle.
