“ Flavourful and the rice balls are quite big compared to the ones from Melaka. Love the braised eggs, no comment for the chicken as I'm not a lover for steamed white chicken. Would go again if I pass by Muar again ”
“ Decided to try this on our way back from Melaka. The chicken used seems to be kampung chicken and it tasted great. Apart from the chicken which seems to be cut a bit too small, nothing much to complain about. The rice is much more flavourful, compared to the highly-recommended one in Muar. Though this is the second chicken rice ball I've tried in Muar, it's my new benchmark for chicken rice balls in Muar. Parking spaces aplenty and accordingly to the owner you don't need to get coupons for parking here despite the marked-out roadside lots. ”
“ The chicken rice ball absolutely big! It is serves with 2 pcs per plate. Hainanese Chicken taste good as well. They also serve otak-otak - taste good too. Not bad. ”
“ The taste of the white chicken (blanced and prepared), and how the rice balls are pressed, is still very traditional - the kozhabi that I remember as a kid The Muar chicken rice ball is not as popular compared to its neighbouring state, but I personally find that the Muar version is much more fragrant, home-styled, and definitely more filling! My favourite go-to place for a heart warming meal of simple yet satisfying chicken rice ball. ”
“ Came here with friends for breakfast. 4 pax and ordered half chicken, rice balls, stew tofu and chicken legs. The staff is helpful and the shop offers coffee making and can order coffee/tea option. I like the steam chicken. ”
“ We ordered 12 chicken rice balls, a whole chicken, 3 braised eggs, and a plate full of intestines—all for just RM65 (~$20). The chicken rice balls were huge, and the chicken was quite tasty, though it could have been more tender.
