An institution in SS15, this humble restaurant sees crowds waiting in line for their signature Butter Chicken (from RM10). Burppler XingWei Cheang waxed lyrical about the dish “...silky, luscious coating of butter and condensed milk over crispy yet juicy fried chicken. The fragrant flavours of curry leaves and the sweetness of the rich, dairy elements of the dish meld perfectly.” The only thing you’ll need to eat this with is White Rice (RM1.30). Pro tip: They have a second outlet in SS15, so you can move the party there if it's too crowded at this location.

📌 Gold Chili, SS15. [halal]

Boneless Chicken Set [RM12]
✨: Gold Chili’s rendition of the beloved Malaysian cafeteria staple involves a silky, luscious coating of butter and condensed milk over crispy yet juicy fried chicken. The fragrant flavours of curry leaves and the sweetness of the rich, dairy elements of the dish meld perfectly. A spoon of steamy white rice and a bite of sauce laden meat creates a simply heavenly mouthful.
💬: As much as it’s good, I wouldn’t travel to the area for the sole purpose of having a meal at Gold Chili. Would definitely consider going there if I were nearby though.
Do you like Malaysian style butter chicken (aka 奶油鸡)?
Quite a small portion of buttermilk chicken (pictured) for RM14.50. This is their large size.
The buttermilk chicken was okay but not spectacular. We also ordered sweet sour Japanese tofu and egg. Fresh fruit juice was good too and only RM3.50 for small & RM5 to go large. (Affordable!!)
Overall it was an enjoyable meal and affordable too. Just don't put too high expectation on the buttermilk chicken as it tastes pretty much the same as any other place that sells buttermilk dishes.
Situated nearby Sunway College (but might add time to the drive due to the hectic jam zzz). Please make sure to drop by early so you don’t have to wait too long just for a buttermilk chicken rice. You can choose either 6pcs or 9 pcs. Other than their signature, saw quite a lot of people ordered for their fish and also vege. Price is from RM8
This modest restaurant sees long, snaking queues for dinner everyday, so many have made it a supper alternative instead. Do the same and round up a few friends to share this comfort-giving meal over late night chats. The Buttermilk Chicken (from RM8) is good as gold, featuring large, tender chicken pieces in a rich, creamy butter sauce. For those who avoid chicken because of bones, rejoice in their boneless version, which will only cost you an additional RM1. Also good is the Buttermilk Sotong (from RM10.50) with toothsome, batter-fried squid that relies on the same sauce to satisfy. Have these luscious dishes with the Tom Yam Fried Rice (from RM6.50) — a great sourish, spicy main to help the meal along.
Avg price per person: RM20
