Their homemade lemongrass with ginger is light and refreshing, with just a gentle touch of ginger. Not spicy at all, more of a warm note that lingers softly. The lemongrass gives it a crisp, herbal lift and together it feels clean, soothing and perfect after kuih or something savoury 》RM5

All the kuih here are freshly made daily and you can taste that care in every bite. The Pulut Tai Tai (kaya kuih) was a standout with its vibrant blue rice and silky kaya, while the Kuih Koci had that chewy skin and sweet coconut filling I love. Rempah Udang brought a smoky, savoury kick and the Loh Bak was crisp outside, juicy inside, making it easily one of the highlights.
The other kuih like Bengka, Talam, Sri Muka and Huat Kuih each had their own charm, from dense and chewy to soft and fluffy. Altogether, it felt like a plate full of tradition, colour and comfort.

The is seriously herby. Every bite bursts with fresh greens, toasted coconut, dried prawns and those salty fish flakes. It’s light yet packed with flavour, almost like a rice salad that keeps surprising you with different textures. Definitely not your usual rice dish but if you love herbs, this one’s a gem 》RM10

Assam laksa here is bold and tangy with that classic Penang sour-spicy broth. Loved the herbs and shrimp paste that give it so much depth. Portion’s small but satisfying and the nostalgic vibe of the place makes the bowl even more memorable 》RM7.50

Wide range of flavours available and you can try flavours (up to two) too! We got the waffle with a scoop of pistachio. While the waffle was slightly burnt, the pistachio ice cream more than made up for it - thick, creamy, and rich, this is easily one of the better pistachio flavours in town! Though I wished there were some drizzles to go with the waffles because it was a little too dry. Do head to the back of the store for more seats!
Don’t tell others anymore about this famous Putu Piring place in Malacca. The queue is getting longer and longer, wait until the neck long long already. 😆
We waited at least 30 minutes just to get our hands on this comforting Putu Piring. Tried reaching early, like 10 minutes after the shop opened (from 1pm till sold out or closing), but we were still considered late. A snaking queue had already formed. Queuing under the mega hot sun is no joke, the intense heat was literally BBQ-ing us alive.
While queuing, enjoy a free live show of the family making Putu Piring from scratch: laying out the rice flour, coconut shavings, topping with gula melaka (palm sugar), and steaming it fresh. Every piece is made to order, so you’re guaranteed the freshest Putu Piring.
Each piece costs RM 1.60 and is packed piping hot in a plastic container. The shop recommends leaving the lid open for about 10 minutes to let the Putu Piring cool down and release excess steam before closing it or you can just dig in straight away if you're ready to huff huff your way through the heat.
The taste was well-balanced. Smoothness, sweetness, and savouriness all in the right ratio. Rich, caramelised melty Gula Melaka, savoury chewy coconut shavings, and fluffy smooth rice flour complement each other beautifully. Steaming the rice flour with the right amount of steam is crucial, and they do it well. Too much, and it turns doughy; too little, and it becomes dry and crumbly. They nail that airy consistency, not too clumpy, just right.

Both flavours were good esp the pistachio, v strong!
Many seatings avail.
This Basque Cheesecake is smooth, rich, and everything you’d want in a slice. The beautifully burnt top brings a touch of bitterness and caramelised depth, perfectly balancing the creamy, melt-in-your-mouth center. It’s soft and custardy, indulgent but never too heavy.
Each bite is dense yet silky, with a subtle tang that keeps it from leaning too sweet. Served with a dollop of light, fluffy whipped cream, it ties the whole thing together effortlessly. Simple, satisfying, and totally worth every forkful 》RM22
This Yuri Matcha Basque Cheesecake is a decadent fusion of bold Japanese matcha and the toasty, caramelised edges of a classic Basque cheesecake. The matcha brings an earthy depth without overwhelming, perfectly balanced by the smooth, slightly tangy cheese base that melts effortlessly in every bite.
It’s served with a cloud of fluffy whipped cream, adding a touch of lightness that lifts the richer flavours and rounds everything out beautifully. If you’re a fan of matcha, this one’s a no-brainer 》RM23
Soft, chewy muah chee dusted with crushed peanuts, delivering that perfect mix of nuttiness and nostalgia. The stretchy glutinous rice has a satisfying pillowy bite, bringing back familiar childhood snack-time comfort.
Beyond the classic peanut version, they also offer black sesame, mango, lychee, pandan, and even Ribena, adding a fun, fruity twist to this traditional treat 》RM6
Formerly known as Kim Soya Bean, the stall has since rebranded as Uncle Bean but it remains in the same spot, still serving its well-loved soya milk and tau fu fah.
Uncle Bean soya milk is all about freshness and simplicity. Made daily, it has a silky-smooth texture and natural soy aroma, balancing light creaminess with clean refreshment.
I tried both the white sugar and brown sugar versions. While the white sugar had that familiar, comforting sweetness, the brown sugar stole the show. It added a deeper, caramel-like richness, making every sip extra satisfying. Served cold, it was the ultimate way to beat the heat while strolling through Petaling Street 》RM3.60 / Bottle
The Dáo Mum is light, smooth, and super refreshing. Silky beancurd, fluffy shaved ice, a touch of floral chrysanthemum, and chewy osmanthus jelly. Perfect for cooling down without feeling heavy. The Pud-dáo Pudding is firmer and a little more custardy, but still light and clean.
Dáo Mum 》RM9.50
Pud-dáo Pudding 》RM6.20
