Grabbed a quick drink at Bean Express (Jalan Gaya) to escape the heat. We ordered Peppermint Chocolate (my favourite) and Strawberry something - sorry I forgot what my husband ordered. 

They have a spacious and quiet sitting area upstairs. Perfect for meetings, lounging or catch up with friends. 

Relaxing Place in Middle of Town 

I've passed by this shop many times but today finally made it to try the chicken rice. It's around Jalan Gaya area. 

Wow, it's delicious! I ordered the corn-fed chicken breast rice. The rice came in a bowl along with soup and a platter of sauces. Of course I asked for more chilli and garlic ginger sauce 😆 The chicken was juicy and tender and the gravy is similar to those steam fish gravy. The rice was aromatic. It looked like a big bowl and I actually finished it. 

My husband ordered laksa. The broth was good too! And a drink.

We really had no expectations when trying new restaurants. I didn't see any reviews or research about it, just wanted to try. I walked out happy and satisfied 😊

Open 9am - 7pm

[NON-HALAL] 

My go-to would be the Signature Pork Burger. The portion is just right. The patty is juicy and tasty. Comes with fresh coleslaw and crispy fries.

I don't usually order burgers for my meals but at Chubs Grill, I usually do. I would totally recommend this burger 👍 😄

Satisfying Burger 🍔🤤

We sat at the mezzanine floor which offered more privacy. QR code scan for the menu, place order then pay at the counter. (I would hands-down prefer a physical menu though)

I ordered curry beef stew rice with sunny side up egg and choc mint drink. The portion was filing and I liked that they gave a side of curry in a separate small bowl. Beef was soft enough. I gave those tendon parts to my husband. I enjoyed the choc mint drink, was a bit sad that when it finished. 

My husband ordered chicken chop fried rice with sunny side up egg, it smelled really good. It came with thousand island and cheese sauce. I managed to steal a piece to dip into the cheese sauce. 😋

Yummylicious lunch 🍛 🍹

I usually order Fish Noodles - Mix (it includes fried fish, fish ball, fish cake, fish paste etc), and add milk. Add a bit of soy sauce and chili sambal and it will be the perfect comfort food, especially on a rainy day. 

For sides, we usually order Fupi (forgot what's it called in English). Fish cake slice maybe? 

Perfect Comfort Food

Good quality and tasty food. We ordered:
- Black pepper chicken rice 
- Sang mien with pork
- Pork chop noodles
- Chicken chop noodles
- Some peach drink 

Yummy lunch 😋

I usually order the Corn-fed Organic Chicken and my husband will order the Farm Chicken. There is a slight difference, but both are good. The portion is big, served with a small bowl of hearty soup. Love the chili and garlic ginger condiments. So far the best around this area.  Opens from 10.30am - 2pm. 

Best Chicken Rice in Damai

Tried a new restaurant at Damai Plaza. The menu was nicely designed, quite a variety of noodles and rice plus desserts. 

We ordered curry yong tau fu, nasi lemak curry chicken, Xi Yang fortune dessert, jasmine green milk tea and chrysanthemum drink. 

Food was served fast despite the restaurant being quite full. Presentation of food is nice. Nasi lemak was not bad, could have given more sambal, curry noodle was quite nice too. We liked the dessert, it had a lot of ingredients. 

Oh, and design of the milk tea band is very pretty featuring the Rafflesia, hibiscus and orchid flowers. 

Nice place, can come back.

Good variety of Chinese Food

They are open for breakfast since 6.30am. We were there around 8.30am. We chose this from the breakfast menu and added on tandoori chicken. Surprisingly the waitress mentioned that everything else on the menu was available too, not only the breakfast menu. 

It was a heavy breakfast so we didn't eat lunch after this. It's roti canai with a sunny side up egg, plus butter chicken and dhal. It was very filling and I didn't even manage to finish the other piece of roti, but my husband finished everything. The set comes with a drink - orange / apple juice, teh or kopi tarik. I picked the hot Kopi tarik while my husband selected the orange juice. My coffee was wonderfully made while the juice was real juice. 

Open for breakfast 

This is one of their top sellers - peanut dessert. Forgot the proper name. I was skeptical at first because usually peanut paste will make my throat itchy and I will cough, but this dessert, it's soooo smooth, texture was perfect and sweetness on point. Not too sweet and not too nutty and thick either. Perfect blend for a peanut dessert. 

Smooth 🥜

We came here for a snack after lunch. The pastries are quite nice. We ordered raspberry cheese tart, chicken pie and Portuguese egg tart. Raspberry cheese tart tasty, chicken pie not bad, egg tart ok. We didn't try any drinks this round. 

They have some light food too like breakfast sets.
