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.

    Celebrated an 80th birthday. Excellent service from Taz. What a memorable evening. The food was so flavourful. The best short rib in Jozi. Truly a hidden gem. Cant wait to go back. Gorgeous decor, delicious meals, faultless in all areas.

    Service was good, ambience impeccable, the sushi was a 6 out of 10, the bao buns were particularly dissapointing, cocktails are very expensive and not worth it but overall good vibes
