As a person who would not hesitate to drive 4-5 hours to savor good food around the country; it perplexed me to read a review on Chuup that was done by an arm-chair, offsite, long-distance, secondary-informed person. I’m someone who believe that the proof of the pudding is in the eating… so I pick up one of my buddies and we decided to go over to the restaurant to have lunch and see how the food and service was. We ordered the pork chop, the Merdeka Day satay and finished off with durian coffee. Here is my verdict (based on real-life, personal experience): My pork chop was well marinated with a light brown sauce, served with potatoes and chopped spinach. I like the taste of the meat as it was evenly cooked and juicy. The sauce was light, tasty and not overpowering, which some restaurants tend to offer, so that I could still taste the flavor of the meat, with a hint of the flavoring. This is old-style pork chop which you don’t get to savor often nowadays. The chicken satay was well marinated and grilled evenly. The meat was flavorful and juicy. The peanut satay sauce was fair as I would have preferred a thicker, less-grounded up peanuts with stronger turmeric and lemon grass flavor. The satay meat was one of the better ones I have tasted around the country. The durian coffee was a class of its own. Durian often overpowered most drinks and tend to bury other tastes when combined together. This was not so with this drink. The coffee flavor was still distinct, while the durian flavor complements it and give a clear unmistakable marriage of flavors. Also the durian flavor was real and not some artificially concocted essence. Now on the service… the waiters were attentive and never intruding. They were quick to clear the plates when we finished our pork chops before the satay arrived. I could feel that they were scouting the restaurant very often and were quick to respond to guests’ requests or orders. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and my buddy and I ended up staying longer than anticipated as we felt relaxed and welcomed in the restaurant. Definitely recommended for good, innovative food in a pleasant environment.
I had the the Grandma Chicken Chuup my mom had the Deep fried variety. We both really loved our food. But we both preferred mine as it's healthier. Loved the marinate, the sauce (unlike other Hainanese which has more corn starch than anything else! especially the spinach! Staff were friendly owner came by to ask us about our food. Will be one of our fave places.
Just celebrated my son's 1 year old birthday party there. Very helpful owners, cheerful staffs, nice cozy environment, simple and nice deco which you might recall from childhood, best of all the food is great!!! Nice place for a small party or gathering with friends. My first visit there for dinner over one of the weekends helped me make my decision to have a party in Chuup. I have been to Chuup several times since then and I still have not tried all the food on the menu. I will be visiting Chuup in the future to enjoy the food there :
IMHO, pork loin sandwich is the best sandwich in Malaysia! ; ... I enjoy some of the other dishes, like the Pork Chuup, and I have mixed feelings regarding some of the drinks and desserts (some of them not quite my taste , but that sandwich alone earns this place 5 stars from me!!! ;
