Hoe Kee Chicken Rice (和记鸡饭团) @ Melaka
Talk about chicken rice ball, Chung Wah Coffee Shop and Hoe Kee Chicken Rice Ball are the prominent chicken rice shops in Melaka.
During my family trip, we visited Hoe Kee Chicken Rice Ball for early lunch which was a wise decision : p Later at lunch time, we saw a long long queue formed outside!!!

Chicken Rice Ball – RM10
Are those fish balls??
No, those are the famous chicken rice balls. The round rice balls were garlicky and flavorful, can just eat on its own. Yummm~!!
Steamed Chicken – RM28
The steamed chicken was tender, but I still like roasted chicken the most : )
Stir Fried Vegetable – RM10

great post here. i have been a great fan of chung wah until this trip (11 april 2010) which i decided on hoe kee hearing all the good review on the food. n of coz peer pressure as one of my mate is a fan of hoe kee. However, this will be MY first n definitely OUR LAST trip there.
5 of us queue patiently with a great heart to try out the food there n ordered half chicken, assam fish, fried vege, coconuts n of coz the chicken rice ball. first disappointment was the mixture loose rice and chicken rice ball we were served with the reason that they could not prepare enough chicken rice ball. fine…we proceed with the table and our greatest FEAR came.
We were eating happily when suddenly 1 of my friend shouted and it was because we found MAGGOT crawling in the gravy of our assam fish. we were SHOCKED and called for the boss. to our surprise, the boss (i would assumed, whom called Tan Hin Kit, as he handed us a name card) denied it’s their problem and giving us excuse that the maggot could be dropped from the ceiling and definitely is not because of the food. We were furious and worry we may not be well due to the “unhygienic” food which we just consumed. However, the boss did not do anything to help; rather replied us harshly and loud telling us that should we fell unwell, just give them a call and complain thereafter. We were speechless, paid the bill and walk off helplessly.
I just wanna share this bad experience with all and watch out while heading for any food in Hoe Kee.
Thanks for sharing out your bad experience with us. This is definitely the worst thing, I can say.
So, to my dear readers and others out there please be extra alert to avoid this to happen. If you wish to try out, I would recommend you to avoid the crowd in peak hour.
I welcome all to share out anything good or bad here.
seem like i have different experience, i feel their food is good and better service compare to other shop. the aunt at front desk is really helpful and good hospitality. maybe we are on the lucky side.
