Food@Melaka - Malacca Jonker Street Chicken Rice Ball
June 3rd, 2009
The unique presence of Baba Nyonya heritage aside, Malacca is undeniably known with a wide array of heavenly delicious foods, and chicken rice ball is undoubtedly ranked within the top-five-must-eat during your visit to Melaka.
We have written about the famed Chung Wah Chicken Rice before, and recently we noticed a new place for Hainanese chicken rice balls, named Malacca Jonker Street Chicken Rice Ball, located just a stone-throw away from Chung Wah.
While most chicken rice shops in Melaka are only selling roasted and steamed chicken as well as chicken rice, the Malacca Jonker Street Chicken Rice Ball is also offering plenty of other signature dieshes to satisfy the makan kakis.
Chicken rice balls
Steamed chicken
Tauhu telur. This is quite special, I have not eaten something similar elsewhere. Basically, it’s a big piece of tofu wrapped by egg. As claimed by the shop owner, this dish is influenced by Indonesian cooking.
Fried roast pork
Thai style crispy toufu
Address: 17, Lorong Hang Jebat, 75200 Melaka (visit the official website for location map)

Hi there,
Love your website.
I am planning to visit Singapre first and then followed by a 2 to 4 days visit to Malacca. Would be so nice if you could write a 1 day visit, 2 days visit, 3 days visit, 5 days visit guide like those in some of the cities. A recommendation of what to do for someone with 1 day to 5 days time to travel and eat.
We are more focus on heritage and local food.
Much appreciated.
Ricky

sorry to disappoint you bro but is your review being paid or biased? i’ve been to this restaurant and the food served is expensive and not as good as you had mentioned. there is a lot of variety but the chicken is too dry. the ones opposite this shop is the best!!

It has been months since u had update it, it contradict what you had mentions at your “About”, please more updates. I’m not a local but I knew which rice ball restaurant is nice and definitely not this one.

Jack & Sharon:
Sorry if this post is containing misleading information. The purpose of this post, is actually to introduce a new chicken rice shop in Jonker Street area. If you notice, I actually not giving any specific comment on the food, but to introduce the varieties available. Contrary to the post I have written on Chung Wah chicken rice opposite OCBC bank, that post is written with exciting comments on the food.
However, thanks for your constructive comment given to me. I will be more careful in the future post. Really thanks a lot
