If exploring romantic restaurants and photogenic spots is something that you’ve already done in JB, the next Malaysian state you might want to visit is none other than Melaka. Besides the scenic historic buildings, be sure to also check out Mamee Jonker House, an eatery and hands-on attraction that features Mamee Monster snack.
Chances are, Mamee Monster is a household snack that you’ve tried at least once. Its crunchy texture and tantalising flavour choices are what make the snack a proud product of Malaysia.

At Mamee Jonker House, you can learn more about the snack, and order dishes created with their signature Mamee Chef Tarik Noodle. Popular menu items include Mamee Mee Goreng and Mamee Chef Curry Laksa.
Based on reviews, the queue can get long during lunch hours, so you might want to plan your visit accordingly to avoid the crowd.
While you indulge your meal at the eatery, be sure to also look out for their iconic Mamee Monster statues. Both of them are depicted as chefs, showcasing the variety of dishes that can be whipped up with Mamee noodles.
After you’re done filling up your tummy, head further inside to personalise your own Mamee Chef Noodle Cup. On top of decorating your cup with coloured markers, you can also select your own seasoning and condiments to make the instant snack a one-of-a-kind memorabilia to bring home.
Flavours include tomyum, chicken, and curry laksa, and you can pick four condiments from the following list: spring onion, corn, carrot, mushroom, cabbage, and chilli.
Considering how each cup costs MYR15 (~S$4.35), this activity is perfect for couples who are looking for a budget date idea.
Apart from personalising your own cup noodle, you can also get hands-on when you sign up for their cooking class at Lil Monster Kitchen. Rest assured that anyone can join the session, so even if you’re not skilled in cooking, you will still be able to follow the steps to create the Mamee Snack from scratch.
Perhaps after one session, you might find yourself developing an interest in cooking.
Singaporeans who have plans to visit Melaka during the year-end break can consider visiting the Mamee Jonker House for a hands-on date idea with bae. Since they also offer special promotions and events from time to time, be sure to visit their official website for more details.
