Satay Celup Dinner

Malacca's most distinctive dining experience — satay celup — involves selecting raw ingredients from a trolley (prawn, tofu, fish cake, quail egg, vegetables) and cooking them yourself in a communal pot of simmering peanut sauce at your table. The method is exclusive to Malacca and the best examples, at Capitol Satay on Lorong Bukit China, have been practised by the same family for over 60 years.
