Chubi Kitchen@ Terrace Plus, Bayan Baru


Recently, there have been many  new restaurants opening in Bayan Baru. And Chubi Kitchen is one of them. I have attempted dining at this restaurant twice, but every time there was a reason I couldn't. Either there was no parking space, or no place in the restaurant to sit. So, back in August, I finally had a chance to sample this restaurant's food during lunch.

Lovely bouquet of flowers

It's a nice, homely place. Obviously newly opened, judging from the bouquet of flowers still present on the counter (as in pic)

cute decor

I also like the simple decorations that create a comfortable dining area in the restaurant, like this wall art.
Here's the menu. They actually offer local Chinese cuisine.

Our drinks came in these super adorable cups/mugs...
Aren't they a cutie?
Adorable mugs/cups

Honey lemon

Here's what we ordered.

Claypot chicken - I think it was '3 cups chicken' 三杯鸡 - direct translation :) It's basically a chicken dish cooked/marinated with 3 different key ingredients: sesame oil, Chinese rice wine, and soy sauce.


Next-up, we ordered sweet & sour Fish fillet
This was yummeh.. partly because I like fried-stuff... and this was actually fried fish with vege and a nice sweet & sour sauce :)

Lastly, vegetables...

All-in-all, this was your usual, simple Chinese restaurant... nothing to crow about, but still a convenient choice for those who live nearby and what a break from the kitchen to be served with home cooked local Chinese food.

Those of you who are interested, this little restaurant has a website on facebook. Check them out at

Eastern wishes Nanyang & THai Restaurant @ I-Avenue

This is my second post on Eastern Wishes Nanyang & Thai Restaurant. Like in my previous post  I had mentioned that this family business has expanded and acquired the next door shoplot. So now it covers a space of 2 shoplots.

Decor of the new section
I've never sat at the newly reopened area because it was meant for large families or large gatherings with big numbers of people...

This time, the old section was fully occupied and I finally got to sit in the new section. Unfortunately, the new section doesn't have TV facilities, whereas the older section has 2 TV sets for viewing.

I guess where you sit has its pros and cons... hahah

Back to the food, as usual, their service and food is quick yet affordable... and yummy too!

Within minutes of our orders, our food was served!! Super fast, even on a day that they have almost full house.... this is really called FAST-FOOD!!


Our dinner - 4 dishes with rice

Mixed vegetables RM7

We ordered Basil chicken (RM10), Sweet&Sour fried fish (RM10), Thai Green Curry Chicken (RM12) and Mixed vegetables (RM7)

soooo yummy!
