Velvety smooth rice noodles intertwine with crunchy chye poh (preserved radish), vibrant kailan and fluffy scrambled eggs. The chye poh lends a delightful balance of sweetness and saltiness, weaving extra depth into every bite 》$7

($8) ($1 for fried egg) I finally tried their salted egg pork rice after a long time. The sauce was quite not that creamy or spicy as I thought it. But pork cutlet very nice and crunchy tbh as its not much "extra" batter.

The rice and chilli sauce are not the best, but they have a long menu and everything is good, including the chicken. One of our favs for chicken rice in Singapore

Haven't been to Mellben in a really long time and I miss having Mellben’s crab done in its signature way. The milky broth is thick, rich, creamy and beamed with sweetness from the crab. The crab was fresh and succulently sweet with chunks of meat coming off cleanly.

Wrapped in crispy beancurd skin with generous fillings of prawns, pork and together with a crunch of chestnuts 》$10 (Small)

Their signature dish. Some people may not like it. I find it fishy. But the waiter is nice. They swapped a dish for me. I like the ginger frog.

Not bad. Quite meaty. Couldn't really detect the champagne.

Another uncommon dish they have here. I like mushrooms so this was good.

Not gonna lie… the sight of this fish head is mildly terrifying. 😧 BUT — mum insists it’s the ultimate comfort food.
This red grouper is simmered in thick, flavourful curry gravy loaded with taupok [a.k.a. dried beancurd puff], ladyfingers, brinjal 🍆 and tomatoes 🍅.
The fish is fresh, meaty and perfect with a plate of fluffy white rice.

Simple, a little haphazard, but oh-so-comforting — rice vermicelli soaking up that rich, flavour-packed broth, loaded with prawns, scallops, clams, sliced fish, egg, and veggies. And not forgetting the scrumptious sidekicks: signature meat & seafood rolls and crispy squid prawn cakes — great for sharing. 💖
