Lousy food at Newton Food Court (bleark!)


Seldom a fan of food courts, with the recent exception of our slurpee Ipoh Hor Fun at DDP Food Court, the two superheroes and Superhero Mum decided to venture into Newton Food Court, along Jalan Parameswara (? I'm not sure of the street name)


This food court is arguably one of the most crowded and most famous foodie place in Malacca if you're hunting for assorted hawker food. You name the food, Newton has it. Parking is easy, which explains the crowd. And there's the variety too, I suppose.



When it comes to the pricing, Newton's hawker stalls have it just like regular food courts where they over-price everything and under delivers. Which is also the reasons why we dislike food courts. Not many stalls are genuinely good in what they sell.

Anyway, it's Superhero W's first time trying out the food in Newton, and he ordered Prawn Mee, priced at RM5 (which is damn expensive in Malacca).



The Prawn Mee is nothing to shout about. And it's definitely over-priced and under-delivered. There are certainly better Prawn Mee stalls out there in Malacca. This one fares below-average. Bad bad.

Superhero S and Superhero Mum decided to go for the Sizzling Chicken Noodles.



Also nothing to shout about, and it's only marginally better than the Prawn Mee. *sigh*

To complement our meal, Superhero Mum ordered some Yong Tau Foo, which just tastes okay.




We thought we could save the day by ordering Newton's special drinks. Superhero Mum ordered Ice Blended Soursop which tasted nothing like sour sop and it's too sweet. The two superheroes both shared a tiny bowl of Nyonya Cendol which was a complete rip-off. There's only ice, a few red beans (I can actually count them!) and NO CENDOL! *faints!*

Lousy food in Newton. That will probably be the last time we're EVER making our way back there again. Bleark!

Agreed. I never like the food in Newton. Even the ikan bakar suck now.
