Best Lobak in Melaka

Carrying a rabbit’s tail in your pocket might help in stumbling upon this rustic bicycle stall. As the owner moves around town, he stops here on a fair basis. Chopping up the ingredients that he prepares through the wee hours of the morning, you will be treated with some of Melaka’s signature fish balls; served along crispy crackers, fried beancurd, yam, and chilli sauce. 

Nancy’s Kitchen is known for its many delicious Nyonya food, but not to be brushed aside is their side of Lobak as well. The pork filled delight is filled with ambrosial flavours and is filled with copious amounts of ingredients like water chestnuts and chopped vegetables.

What’s that crackling sound coming from the other side of the room? Oh wait, is that Lobak I see, is it really that crunchy? Ah, the questions running through your mind when stumbling upon a hidden treasure- Jonker 88’s Lobak. The fried beancurd stands out conspicuously and goes perfectly well with chewy fish balls. 

Amongst the brisk and bustling stalls lies one that displays their Lobak under warm and yellow lighting. Certainly a head turner, having some of the crunchy and meaty Lobak here will not yield any regrets. The crackling textures and moreish filling will have you scuttling back and forth for more. 

Chewing through rolls of meat, filled with chunks of julienned vegetables and fatty hints is always a sensation when relishing some Lobak. Well, you’re in luck as Nyonya Makko has whipped up a dish of Lobak that shares a noteworthy spotlight amongst the other dishes.
