Tried for Portuguese food

Never found any. Did see photos of a couple of purportedly dutch dishes but one looked like a square of ham on a piece of bread, topped by a square of plastic cheese, topped by a fried egg. Nothing there that was interesting. I walked and walked and zilch in that dept. Did try two amazing nonya foods. One a tiny puff pastry wrapped around tasty brown sauced pork filling. The other was also small and tricornered. This was a sweet option which I didnt know when I bought it. Inside was soft light as a feather dessicated coconut probably presoaked in some sugar syrup. Later on I was able to buy a maleka signature street food, a pineapple tart. Again small, short crust, with a sticky cooked pineapple centre. Before leaving town, bought one more Cendol. The first one is still the stand out.
