Baba and Nyonya cuisine is what defines the Melaka
people. Locals and tourists love to come to the historical city and find
themselves a good Peranakan restaurant. Restaurant Atlantic 1 is one of the
good selections out there. It offers delicious and authentic Nyonya delicacies
using traditional recipes. To match with its delectable food, its interior is also decorated with rustic décor. The eatery try to mix together different flavours
and ingredients – spicy, tangy and salty, in order to craft wonderful and
authentic Peranakan dishes.
The Special Pineapple Rice is the go-to
dish for patrons who prefer a simple meal. This one is not like the regular Pineapple
Rice. It consists of aromatic rice that is fried together with Corn, Ngoh
Hiang, Raisins, Pineapples, and Pork Floss. To make your dining experience even
more special, the rice is actually served in a pineapple. This one is highly recommended
by the place itself.
However, you can always have a more common
meal where you order rice and various side dishes of your choice. This
restaurant is a little bit special because they provide Special Pandan Rice to
go with the side dishes instead of the usual white rice. To complement the
delicious and unique Pandan Rice, you can order Ikan Chilli Garam. This dish is
exquisitely tasty with the green chilli paste drizzled all over the fresh and
tender fish. Not a fan of fish? Chicken Rendang is ready for you. This one is
one of the must-try dish with the visible grated coconut coating the chicken, flavourful
gravy, and tender chicken meat.
So, instead of going to the usual fast food
joints for dinner when you are in Melaka, why not try and experience yourself
the authentic Peranakan delicacies at Restaurant Atlantic 1. Plus, they even claim their food as 100% Halal!
