    As cendol is one of the few central dishes of Peranakan roots, of course an acclaimed Nyonya restaurant MUST have an equally praise-worthy cendol. That's Nyonya Makko for us all. Cendol here is straight-forward, simple and honest which is why it is much appreciated. With all the classic elements, Nyonya Makko scores high on our charts!

    Another Nyonya house, Cottage Spices is the perfect spot for a real taste of Malacca. Patrons particularly love the hot kitchen food here but let's cut to the chase. Right now, all we care about is the cendol. That being said, the cendol here is a breeze to our senses. Although portion size had been criticized by some netizens for being inconsistent (and small), taste is brilliant! Every component is authentic and made from scratch and thus gives you all the flavours that can only be achieved from raw hands.

    Tips

    Card payment and Wi-Fi available.

    Things to expect

    Prices are on the higher side.

    Assam pedas and cendol.

    Loved and recognized by even the Peranakans themselves, Aunty Lee has been serving authentic Baba Nyonya cuisine since 1996. When Uncle and Aunty Lee first started their business, they never imagined that their little restaurant could be this much of a prominence in Malacca. Many have since loved the humble couple's restaurant as the food is hearty, wholesome and genuine. Till today, Aunty Lee is the chef and cooks every dish one by one and heart to heart. The cendol here is like the flawless icing to a Michelin starred cupcake.

    Justberrys Dessert House


    Home to a multitude of desserts, Justberrys Dessert House is another casual cafe that offers a truly extensive range of dessert. Among all that lies a humble serving of cendol, which is filled quite generously with green wormy jelly, kidney beans, lots of gula melaka as well as coconut and finely shaved ice. Though the cendol does not match up to their range of beautifully crafted desserts, it still does deliver in flavour, and is more than enough to satisfy that craving of yours. The place is also really colourful, which makes it fun to be in.

    Other than boasting his gifted acting skills on television, the brainchild of Big Nyonya Restaurant is a talented chef as well. As expected from a pure Straits-born Chinese that obtained his culinary skills from his grandmother, his mouthwatering dishes is simply not to be missed. Apart from the delicious Nyonya dishes, in comparison to other places that serve cendol, you could sample a decent one here too. Moreover, what not to like when you can slurp up a bowl of refreshing cendol that is packed with subtle goodness of gula Melaka in the comfort of a fully air-conditioned restaurant?

    Cendol Kampung Hulu @Makan Avenue

    The Cendol Kampung Hulu @ Makan Avenue is located along Jalan Kampung Hulu in the Kampung Hulu area, in the Makan Avenue restaurant. The cendol here is radiant, with numerous alternatives to look over. The gauge is as yet the quintessential blend of shaved eyes, gula Melaka syrup, coconut milk, and pandan jam, yet you can add on garnishes. For example, corn just as ocean coconut and frozen yogurt. A cutting edge take on a conventional sweet treat.

    Bibik House Chendol

    You will enjoy the durian cendol version here even though you don't like to taste durian and worry about the durian scent. It’s much flavourful with a generous amount of gooey durian paste in the middle so you can expect a stronger durian taste in every mouthful.Great presentation of the Cendol. Most importantly, it tastes good too. Gula Melaka is always the main ingredient to make you feel wow. The ice is very soft, the cendol is not too sweet. The owner provides additional melted brown sugar on every table. 

    Tips

    Help yourself to more gula melaka syrup from a container which is nic

    You can find Melaka snacks and souvenirs at there.
