🍝 Food:
🍷 Drinks:
↪️ Jasmine Tea (Complimentary)
You're welcomed with the Jasmine Tea, which is the most consumed tea of China. The tea is highly fragrant and scented. It is made with the leaves of Jasmine plant and served in traditional Chinese tea cup.
🍢 Starters:
All of the starters I tried ware prepared in Indo-chinese chilli style. The main ingredients are cooked in the soya sauce and with other elements like garlic, sauteed onions, green chillies, pepper etc.
↪️ Pepper Cottage Cheese (₹384) - 5⭐
↪️ Assorted Sriracha Mushroom (₹411) - 5⭐
↪️ Hot Basil Chicken (₹472) - 4⭐
↪️ Tangra Chilli Prawn (₹686) - 5⭐
A must-have for sea food lovers. I was blown away with it's taste. The prawns have a size of a palm. It had soft tender texture and not rubbery. The prawns were neither moist not smelly and the batter was perfectly fried making it crispy and crunchy.
↪️ Bao:
Baos are similar to dumplings which have a filling inside. The stuffing is filled in a steamed maida bun and served in a steamer. The buns are moist in texture, and comes in different varieties.
↪️ Paneer Twister Bao (₹384) - 3⭐
Juicy paneer cooked in a curry and filled inside a closed steamed bun.
↪️ Spicy Chicken Siu Bao (₹466) - 4⭐
The spiciness of chicken is overtaken by then sweetness of bread, but yet the filling is juicy and you can see it dripping out of the bao.
↪️ Vegetable Chilli Dimsum (₹406) - 4⭐
Spicy and lip smacking dimsums which are filled with a paste of onions, sweet corn and green chillies.
↪️ Chicken Coriander Dimsum (₹439) - 4⭐
Filled with chicken & coriander paste, it has a vibrant purple colour skin. Both the taste wise and look wise it is a perfect dimsum.
🍛Main course :
↪️ Ramen:
My first short at the ramen, and the experience indeed was one to remember. It consists of wheat noodles which are thick and lengthy. They're quickly boiled to avoid overcooking and hence giving a non-sticky texture. But the real taste of Ramen lies in it's broth and the taste of broth varies on your pick. Every Ramen bowl comes with chopsticks and exotic vegetables. The ramen bowl here is far from authenticity but expecting a Japanese standard taste is unjust because be it any other global dish, it's unfit to compare it's taste to the taste of it's origin place.
🍜 Hot Chilli Ramen Bowl (Chicken) (₹626) -4⭐
Spice Level: 🌶️🌶️
The broth had a strong soya sauce taste with pinch of chilli sauce. It was topped with sliced pieces of chicken, exotic vegetables and a half cut boiled egg. Actually, a Ramen bowl is served with semi boiled egg with yellowy yolk, but it had to be changed because that's a risky shot in India cuz not everyone prefer uncooked eggs.
🍜 Spicy Korean Ramen Bowl (Veg) (₹582) -3⭐
Spice Level: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Starters: This one was really spicy. It had dominant soya taste with burning tongue spiciness, exotic veggies and soft chunks of tofu.
🍛 Hunan Sauce (Lamb) with Brunt Garlic Rice. (₹505) -4⭐
A tasty thick curry made up of ginger, soya sauce and exotic veggies. It has huge chunks of lamb which are perfectly cooked to make them soft and tender. Eat it with Brunt Garlic Rice to enhance your experience.
🍨 Desserts :
↪️ Water Chestnut Rubies (₹329) -5⭐
It's a popular Thai dessert made of sweet coconut milk and shaved ice, with small pinkish jewels water chestnut covered in flour. The texture of the milk is thick and the taste if heavenly delicious. You will definitely fall in love with it.
*HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
↪️ Banana Tempura Hot Chocolate (₹329) -5⭐
Sliced banana is coated in a tempura batter and fried until golden. Then the warm indulgent dessert is dizziled with chocolate sauce and served along with cold vanilla ice cream. The combination of warm-cold dessert is amazing and blow away all your senses.
Overall experience - 5/5⭐
They have a limited menu but they made sure they did a mastery on them. I feel it is one of the best Pan-Asian restaurant in Hyderabad, but the service is extremely slow, which the management needs to work on improving.
The menu does consist of pork, but the management has confirmed that they have separate kitchen counters for pork meat and other meat.

Chubby cho isn't the name very peculiar and this is one of the reasons the brand has become an eye catcher of the crowd . Chubby cho means a fat asian person and it totally justifies the name as you will feel like putting in some mass after eating their mouth watering dishes. I was invited here for a session and for a change the restaurant is one of the few brands that serve authentic Pan Asian food. From the time we enter the place to the time we finish having food you will actually feel safe as every precautionary measure is taken to make the experience of the customer Hassel free. The session started of with some much needed healthy jasmine tea which is really soothing to your throat . After a wait for some time the dishes came in and they made me fall in love at the very first site. First came in the paneer Twister boa and the followed by the vegetable Chilli Dimsum. The reason for us all to drool over it was the flavour and the spices in it. Very soft and exotic. Next in line was the assorted Sriracha Mushroom and the paneer cottage cheese. These items that were served were a treat to have as it had the right touch to it which made us a feel the authenticity behind it. After the starters we were eager to try out some main course and also wanted to know if it would do the same just as the starters. Meanwhile we got are hands on the Mocktails which balanced our taste buds after some spicy bites. The main course then came in and were served wide across the table. The items served were the hunan sauce with some burnt Garlic Rice and the spicy Korean Ramen Bowl. The hunan sauce and the burnt Garlic Rice complimented each other really well and the Korean Ramen Bowl also was decent. After having the amount of food till you fill your stomachs I just managed to keep some space for the delicious desserts. The desserts served were the water Chest nut Rubbies and the banana Tempura Hot Chocolate. Both these were no less than each other however the water Chest nut Rubbies just over shadowed the other. This will make you drool and have another portion for sure. Chubby cho surely is one of the best Pan Asian places in the city . It is highly recommended.
