THE CONCLUDING GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE OF THE MELAKA TRIP

   21ST JULY 2026    ~ After checking out from the hotel, we decided to stop for lunch before heading back to Johor Bahru. My travel partner, Mr. Redzuan, had already chosen Kafe Pondak Santapan, located somewhere in Bukit Rambai.

The concept of this shop was the vendor that sold variety of pre-packed food items and dessert, and the food was not cooked and prepared in the outlet. People either dined in or took away and only drinks were sold over the counter.

The dining area was located on the first floor. It was a self-service restaurant and one could only meet the staff at the counter most of the time.

The place must be popular among the locals as there was a crowd buying downstairs during lunch hour, and most of them came for takeaways.

I even managed to buy frozen food to bring back home from this place. Definitely a new kind of eating experience for me and it seemed it was getting more popular especially with the young ones these days.
