Melaka Best Kept Secret Seri Muara Alai Haji Nasir Ikan Bakar Village
Down in Melaka, you know a lot Singaporeans and KL people drove down to Melaka for a weekend retreats. Most of the time, people tends to either flocked into the center of the town of Jonker Street or the Portuguese Settlement. Thanks to my Melaka Food Expert Jason Mumble who lead us here. This place if without GPS will be a bit of Challenge to reach unless you come with a local.

The operation hour of this place starts from 6.00pm onwards everyday.

Located next to the Alai river, this place house a couple of shops where the local fishermen cook and sell their daily catch.

You just pick what you want. Time to get dirty!

Fish ranging from cheap to expensive ones.


Pick your own seafood and then pass to the staff to weigh and inform them how you want your seafood to be cook.


Price are pretty cheap and reasonable here. If you eat at Portuguese Settlement, the price will be much higher as that is a tourist spot.

This is the grilling place where they grill your seafoods. It is using the traditional cooking method which put the seafood direct on top of the fire. The place can get pretty hot sometime if no wind as we are sitting right at the open air.


Seriously most of the patrons here were 70% Muslims and not much people know.

This kicap manis, onions, lime and bird eye chili combi are fiery hot! Yet tasty when dip with the grilled seafoods.

Piping hot plain nasi lemak with sambal is served together with the seafoods.
