It was a "lo & behold" moment when we spotted Muthu along the road at Kg Semabok Dalam
He still sells the traditional white putu mayam the traditional way too ie. on a bicycle ziggy zagging in and out of the many lanes in Kampung Semabok Dalam
In English, putu mayam is called string hoppers and is made with rice flour and pressing the dough through a sieve to make vermicelli-like noodles
Putu mayam is served with grated coconut and gula melaka
Those interested to catch Muthu, you can wait along Jalan Semabok Dalam around 3.30pm - 4.30pm. It is his routine route
What's there to do?
1. While you wait you can also check out the many goreng pisang stalls by some of the kampung houses
2. Pack the putu mayam and ask for more coconut and gula melaka
So who says there's nothing to see and nothing to do in Melaka?
