⚡ Quick answer
The best Chicken Rice in Melaka is Kedai Kopi Chung Wah (Jonker Street, Melaka). Also great: Hoe Kee Chicken Rice Ball and Famosa Chicken Rice Ball.
Order: Chicken rice balls with poached Hainanese chicken
The most famous queue on Jonker Street. Rice is pressed into ping-pong-sized balls while warm, so it stays fluffy and fragrant, and the chicken is classic smooth Hainanese. Come early, it sells out by mid-afternoon.
Order: Chicken rice balls with Nyonya-style side dishes
Chung Wah's long-standing neighbour and the comfier sit-down option in a restored shophouse. Solid chicken rice balls plus Nyonya extras like assam fish make it a full meal rather than a quick grab.

Jalan Hang Kasturi, Melaka, Melaka
Order: Chicken rice balls with steamed chicken
The big, brassy chicken rice ball hall at the Jonker end of town, built to feed tour-bus crowds without the long wait at Chung Wah. The rice balls are compact and fragrant and the steamed chicken silky.
