About ChubSquared


Hi! 🙋

I live for food and travel. 

Late to the blogging scene, but better than never. ChubSquared was created as a diary for me to document my food hunts and travels around Malaysia and across the world. It is to remind me where I should revisit and where I should not. But most importantly it is to help readers (if any) to see the world and foods through my perspective and decide if its in your favor and best interests to go yourself.  
 
Food and travel are 2 areas in life I've always had and will always have strong passion in. I've traveled to many countries and go on domestic food hunts every week but it never crossed my mind to share my opinions on them, until now (not sure why, just got inspired suddenly). It's too late for me to revisit each and every one of the places I've been to over the years but I will be reviewing most places from now on. 

I'm huge on privacy so there will be no self pictures posted on this blog. Your understanding is appreciated!

Any suggestions on foodie places to try out are most welcomed! 😋

Why the name "chubsquared"? chubsquared stands for Chub Chub, an extremely cute penguin hailing from Melbourne that has been in the family for many years.

Why penguins? Because they are absolutely adorable and I love them! 

So how this is going to work is, all places will be rated out of 3 penguins as per below :

ChubSquared rated 1 : Would not return unless there is major change/revamp.

 


  


ChubSquared rated 2: Food was good and acceptable. Will likely return to try something else.


 





ChubSquared rated 3 : Food was absolutely fantastic!! Definitely returning and recommending to everyone!









Thanks for reading! If you have any enquiries please email them to chubsquared@gmail.com.

Review : Le Food @ SS18 Subang

Image
Anybody who knows me well will know I am generally not a fan of vegetarian cuisine because in my experience with them they tend to be tasteless, or deep fried unhealthily with lots of batter, or consisting of fake ingredients - none of which I associate to be healthy which really defeats the purpose of going vegan.  However, my lunch companion was vegan yesterday so we headed to SS18 Organic Vegetarian Fresh Mart and Restaurant to eat. Upon parking we saw Le Food few shops down and being curious souls checked it out and lo and behold it was an all vegetarian restaurant with an equally interesting menu to boot!  Le Food SS18 is a new baby on the block just shy of 2 weeks into its opening with a promise to serve tasty healthy food without the 3 evils - MSG, preservatives, artificial colorings & flavors. They do have another branch at Bandar Bukit Tinggi Klang but that location is definitely out of our reach so this SS18 branch is a real blessing for us! Being ne...

Review : Naj & Belle @ Bangsar

Image
Tucked away at a residential lane in Bukit Pantai Bangsar lies Naj & Belle, home to Malaysia's knockoff of the famous Black Star Pastry's watermelon cake in Sydney. Apart from that, this is a very good brunch place with a pleasant modern design, high ceilings, brightly lit, and big comfortable seats to lounge in. They have another branch located at SS15 Courtyard Subang mall but the area is not as spacious as this one and the menu is very different with less interesting options. Our drinks. L : Watermelon Lychee Juice, R : Mother's Bouquet Flower Tea What's this called : Soft Shell Crab Linguini What's in it : Asian style carbonara with curry leaves and bird eye chili topped with fried soft shell crab. Chubsquared thoughts : We were initially confused by what "Asian style carbonara" is and was happily surprised to see it referred to delicious butter sauce that I absolutely love. Take note this means it is not your usual chees...

Review : Bla Bla Bla @ Kuching

Image
Had a work trip to Kuching earlier this year and made it a priority to try as many popular restaurants as possible. This particular restaurant was recommended by the hotel we stayed at and is also in TripAdvisor's Top 10 must go restaurants. I would just like to ruin the rest of this review by saying upfront I LOVE this restaurant and it definitely made it to my to-return list.  The ambience of this place is Balinese style : very relaxing and inviting with dimmed lighting. The tables are set apart at a good distance which makes talking and hearing across the table easy. Definitely a place to chill out at to enjoy good food and good company.  What's this called : Deep Fried Soft Shell Crab What's in it : Soft shell crab with chicken floss drizzled with lots of buttered mayo. Chubsquared thoughts : Soooo goooood.The soft shell crab is perfectly battered and fried and tasted delicious with the pairing of floss and buttered mayo. What...
