Attending friend's wedding in Johor

We attended our friend's wedding in Johor in October 6-7, 2012. Went to Malacca first so we had a chance to grab a slice of mille crepe. Too bad we couldn't locate the original one so we tried another one in Dataran Pahlawan mall. I don't quite like it~


Then we headed to Tang Sifu restaurant 

Weird expression here coz my bf grabbed the camera from me

Ordered these for our lunch



The elephant statue along Jonker Street

Then we found the best street snack in Jonker Street! Deep-fried little crabs

It was so delicious. Too bad we the stall was not there when I went to Jonker Street a few months after that

We started our journey to Johor the next morning

Before that, breakfast time!

Lo Mai Kai.

Our breakfast

Then we headed to our friend's wedding luncheon

Was beautifully decorated
