Malacca – Heng Hainanese Chicken Rice Balls (興海南雞飯糰)

Malacca – Heng Hainanese Chicken Rice Balls (興海南雞飯糰)

The next day so happened driving past this area and surprisingly saw the Heng was OPENed! Of course we quickly rushed into this restaurant lah.

Pic on top showing 1st day pi, ‘NO OPEN’ . Outside there’s a note stating they gonna close for a few days.
Pic at bottom showing 2nd day pi, ‘sitting inside the restaurant already’.


Now I have finally tasted the genuine chicken rice balls. This one tasted definitely thousand times better! Unlike the one that we had the day before, the rice ball here is soft and fragant, padat padat one, (takda sang sang one tau?!), tasted good even without dipping any sauces.


The pak zham kai tasted average.


I was more impressed with the cabbage. Such a simple dish tasted so good and ‘crunchy’ when served hot.

Another impressive item is this Black Bean Soup. RM2 each bowl. GOOOOOOOOD ah!!!!!!
Total bill RM18.00 including drinks. Reasonable uh?!

My Malacca Food Hunt

I remembered my last visit at Foh San Dim Sum (富山香港點心茶樓) was a wonderful meal.

This time, the Har Kow is still BIG and stuffed with FRESH shrimps. No suk shui. :)


Upon arriving Malacca town, we headed for that Heng Hainanese Chicken Rice Balls but ended up, NO OPEN LEH! :( Aiyoyoh…..do you ppl know how many twists and turns and GOSTAN BALIKs we got to make uh in order to find the exact location?! The roads there all one way street one leh. Adui!!!! Sooooo tui sim kua!

We ended up at Famosa Chicken Rice Ball @ Jalan Bendahara.

Yee…..don’t know whether if it’s late afternoon already(?!) the rice balls and chicken / duck all seemed to be not as nice as I could think of. Pretty plain, not as delicious as we expected.


In the evening we bumped into this Malacca Cendol at another branch of Famosa @ Jonker Street.


RM3 per bowl. Hmm….this one was good! Very rich in gula melaka taste. A real thirst quencher during hot weather.

Satay Celup! We were told so, “You ppl must go and try that satay celup! Go early otherwise got to queue long time.”

OK we went! Aiyoyoh…… LOK LOK hor?! Say lah earlier. I thought it’s one kind of satay bakar pula!


Later only realized haha! Go to wrong shop liao lah! The famous one is another few lots away lah, named CAPITOL !

Oooooooolong hor?! :p
