"Si Ham"???

I have been wanting to post this but what the hell, i couldn't come up with the name in English... Oyster? nope... Scallop?? NO.... Mussel??? NOOO......
Just don't know what to call it...
So i'm hoping some of you can enlighten me...
My mind is kinda stuff with chemistry stuffs...

Well, i know what is it called in Hokkien, "Si Ham"
So let me tell you where to eat the best "si ham"

In this dark alley barely litted somewhere in Jalan Bunga Raya of Melaka, there stood a magnificent stall only the locals will know of once upon a time...
My grandpa ate here, my father and I now eat here.... It has been generation of cravings...
I don't used to eat this 'si ham' thingy cos to me it's kinda look scary... But after having my first bite with the groundnut based sauce, i couldn't help but keep eating...

It is how it looks like... Actually these are the empty shells... LOL

This is the recipe that keep customer flooding in...

I have to tell you all, if you are those eeewww-that-doesn't-look-hygienic-type, don't bother stopping by cos the best food ain't that clean...




Just look at the crowd, good food doesn't need to be serve in a nicely decorated, air conditioned, high class kinda of place...
If you can put aside you ego and status or rank, you may have just taste the best food in town...


The seats are those Japanese kinda of small chair with short-legged table... I wonder if we, the Malaccan have started this method of sitting and the Japanese think that it's a good idea when they invade the hell out of us...LOL

Apparently, there is this guy called Jason, a famous food TV show host, had visited this place and left his remarks... Well done...

This is what it looked like after the meal...

fyi, none of my family member have stomachache after the meal... So either it means that the food is clean or we have a strong stomach, you judge...

Make this a must-stop destination when you are in Melaka...
