Cho Cha Foodstore

One day, my friend/co worker asked me whether or not I would like to go with her to Petaling Street for lunch as she was meeting her friends who work near there so I said ok without knowing the name of our lunch place.  The place turns out to be Cho Cha Foodstore at 156, Petaling Street. Cho Cha in Cantonese means "坐茶" - sit and drink tea. We parked at an open car park nearby which charges MYR4 for each hour with a max parking rate of MYR10 nett per entry.

CFC - Cincalok marinated chicken, tomato chutney and tomato salsa at about MYR26 - I am not sure about the prices because our vegan friend gave us a treat for this lunch. These deep fried chicken pieces are very crispy. I read online that some people feel that it is too dry but to me, it is not. I like it because it is not oily at all.

Zucchini and Kyuri (Japanese cucumber) Salad - about MYR20 - our vegan friend had this dish and he says that it is very tasty.

Bang Bang Chicken - about MYR22 - shredded chicken, glass noodle, housemade chilli oil. I took some shredded chicken before my friends mix everything up so it was not spicy for me.

Mushroom Frittata - about MYR22 - Frittata is an Italian dish that is similar to omelette. The egg base tastes nice but I find the mushrooms to be a bit too salty for me. My friends ordered a bowl of rice each but I did not eat any rice. All 4 of us non-vegan shared the 3 meat dishes while our vegan friend just ate the salad. We did not order any cold tea or coffee so we were provided with foc drinking water.

The place is renovated to retain the antique charms.

I did not take a photo of the exterior of this eatery so the above image is from Google streetview. Cho Cha Foodstore is located inside the grey/gray building next to the green building. The owner/architect has kept the old look of the Mah Lian Hotel built in 1969.
