We have eaten here a few times now and each time and every meal has been nothing but amazing. We thoroughly recommend this restaurant as a 'must try' to tantalise the taste buds.
Loved every single meal we had to share! Can't wait to go back. The snapper, thrice cooked duck and pork ribs were to die for!
Being Malaysian, I am extremely critical when it comes to Malaysian food. This place definately impress me, authentic Malaysian food 🇲🇾 👍🏻
Ordered:
Crispy Rockling $30 🐟
Beef Rendang $25 🥘
Sambal Okra, Eggplant & Beans $19 🥬
Deep Fried Mini Tofu (5 pieces) $8
Pisang Goreng (Fried Banana) $8 🍌
Durian Ice Cream $2 🍦
Steam Rice $3 🍚
The deep fried tofu contains minced meat inside and it is a really generous size for an entree size, compatible to a main dish size. The beef in the beef rendang is very tender tho I personally did not like the rendang as I felt it was made from a powder packet - I’ve tasted real rendang in Malaysia & this definately did not taste like one, felt rather powdery. Sambal okra, eggplant & beans: Definitely amazing, my favourite and it was made up to my standards.
Overall the food is good, tho it is to keep in mind that it is very pricy but being that it is authentic Malaysian food, I accept the high price.
Everthing we ate was spot on. The whitebait fritters were a very generous size. They were mixed with sweet potato and the light batter made them not too oily or rich.
The beef rendang was perfectly spiced and tender and the stir fried okra with eggplant belachan was gutsy but not too pungent, just delicious.
We will definitely be crossing the river to try the laksa!
Excellent laksa, and the samba okra/eggplant/green beans is phenomenal. The service is always really friendly and enthusiastic without being intrusive. I will keep coming back!
Came here on a weekday night for a birthday dinner with friends. The food was yummy and so was the dessert. The food is quite authentic Malaysian. The waiter was friendly and attentive.
Came here for a good laksa and was not disappointed! The service was impeccable, friendly, we felt like we were eating at a friend’s home. Kids first time eating Malaysian and as we left they asked when we would be returning.....soon I’d say!
I had a lovely meal here. Food was really good especially the duck rendang, pork sticky ribs and duck bao! Service and ambience was also fantastic- will definitely be returning soon to try the rest of the menu!
Blue chillies is an amazing Malaysian restaurant. I love the decor of the restaurant, where they put drinks and traditional items on the shelf’s and benches, really brings a warm feel. I had the fish head vermicelli and pickled cabbage. Was perfect for the weather. The broth wasn’t too overpowering and that’s what I loved about it most. Beef Randang was delicious too. Beef was perfectly cooked and the curry had all the elements you would expect. Sweet, sour, savoury and the “kick”.
Great service, located in a quieter area of Fitzroy, which I found good because of the convenience to finding parking.
They have espresso here too. Which I always love a good coffee after a nice meal. WIR? Willing to try everything else in the menu.
Love blue chillies!! You can tell that they take pride in what they do and everything is so authentic. I highly recommend their chicken curry and asam fish. Service was spot on and the decor of the restaurant is really nice. Defs recommend and will definitely come back!
This is our new local for our taste of great Malaysian food - laksa, curry puffs & nasi lamak our favourites -all served by the smiling Bonnie
