Chill-V Kopitiam

Went on another lunch break with my BFF and his wife, so we decided to go eat somewhere which is close to her workplace, which is at the new Chill-V Kopitiam


This be the signboard and entrance of the kopitiam. It's located in one of the Time Square blocks, which situated near the airport roundabout and just opposite the block where Axtivo is (also it's near where my 2nd sis-in-law works). Apparently it was having its soft opening to the public, so we were in luck to premiere their food. Chill-V has always been known to be a drink cafe, specializing in beverages and has its first store at Gadong area just in the building of The Mall. It was about time they ventured out and make something more than just the drinky-drinky.




This be the interior of the restaurant. Entering it, it kinda reminds me of De Olde Kopitiam that was back in my hometown of KK, pretty much in that sort of setting, what with the huge-ass poster on the wall of old 60's version of black and white pictures of the good old Malay days when life was simpler, except the picture was the old Bandar Seri Begawan when it was still the hustle-bustle of life before it became a ghost town.

Trigger-happy on the old school props for restaurant background decor, like stepping into a sort of time machine.

My hi-tech camera vs the old school 60's camera! Who shall win this round? XD




More trigger-happy moments


This be the menu, which is basically a huge cardboard listed with pretty limited food choices, but they've got really wicked list of beverages and desserts, though unfortunately our lunchbreak prolly wouldn't allow us to savour that


Whelp, despite the inability to eat dessert at such short notice, it didn't stop me from ordering a nice tall glass of chocolatey goodness. I think this is the chocolate Oreo special or something that I ordered. Tastes awesome, and the Oreo cookie on the top was a nice touch


I ordered Ipoh soup noodle or something, which basically clear soup kuey tiaw noodles with spring onions, chicken slices and prawn with a dash of chilli oil and lotsa pepper in it. It's nice and simple-looking, and tastes pretty good. Surprisingly it wasn't as bland as I was worried it would be, and the dash of chilli oil gave it a nice kick tint


My BFF's wife ordered fried meehoon, standard style, though she did request it to be with less salt or something. Looks yummy, and she lemme have a taste, which was alright considering. More or less the standard taste of fried meehoon any kopitiam would have


My BFF ordered some kind of laksa noodles or something, but it looks like something you just scoop out of a primordial bowl or something due to all the mesh they stuff in there somehow. I didn't try it, and he didn't seem particularly irked about it, so I guess it's safe to say that it tastes alright, or prolly safe to eat

I had a satisfying meal more or less, and a good shake to go with it, so I guess it is recommendable to everyone. Right now, the Chill-V Kopitiam should be officially open for full business to the public, so go ahead and give it a shot.
