Kocik Kitchen - Melaka

This small restaurant was near our hotel so we passed it everyday, we called in for lunch and were squeezed into the last table left in the front part. We were recommended the buah keluak a chicken dish with Pangium edule seeds in it which we were informed by the waitress the British called Black Man 's Nuts . Not politically correct but they were very tasty. The owner came to our table and showed us how to scoop out the black creamy innards that tasted like black beans and mushrooms. You have to ferment the nuts and then boil them otherwise they are poisonous. The fugu of Malaysia. Highly recommended little restaurant, the food was good and the service was great, it was like home cooked nyonya food that you 're grandma would make.

Nice place. Good service. Delicious foods! Reasonable price. Really recommended.

Though the price seemed a bit expensive at first but the portions served were sharing portions for 2-3 and the food was excellent.

The prices are on the higher end but it was really worth a try. Food gravy was especially superb and yummy.

Best place to makan ever, nice food...but unfortunately closing down in this years 2020, go try before too late.
