Mr Chau & his gargantuan gaggle of foodie friends just LOVE FOOD.
And after extensive travel & existential eating around Asia, we have brought the mostest & the bestest & the deepest flavours back home to you.

Why is Mr Chau called Chunky Chau? Because Mr Chau is not 'fat'.

‘Chunky’, on the other hand, can be used to refer to someone who is short and muscular. Being short and broad shouldered, he looks heavy. Unlike ‘fat’, ‘chunky’ does not have a negative connotation. In fact, according to some books on usage, native speakers sometimes use the word to indicate affection.

    A great discovery just around the corner from home. I ordered the salmon which was sublime . My wife had the pad Thai which she thoroughly enjoyed. Not only tasty but generous portions. Will be back!

    15-Year Anniversary at Chunky Chau We celebrated our 15th anniversary at this Thai restaurant, and it was utterly romantic. Ambience: Candlelit, intimate setting with tasteful Thai-inspired decor and soft background music. Service:Attentive and discreet; staff offered thoughtful recommendations and special touches for the occasion. Food:Beautifully presented, balanced flavors with a mix of classic favorites and modern twists. Portions were generous for sharing. Overall:A memorable, picture-perfect evening romantic, elegant, and worth the celebratory splurge. Tips: request a corner table for extra privacy and mention the celebration when booking for a possible surprise dessert or toast.

    The ambiance and aesthetics are absolutely beautiful. The people are amazing, and the service is exceptional. Always ask for Sam,he’s truly the best. I will always recommend this place to anyone willing to listen, and I’ll keep coming back again and again because of Sam.

    The food was delicious and the service was great . My only complaint would be the coconut slices inside the curry made the curry abit hard to eat .
