It's nice to return to an old favourite and to find the flavours, prices and hard of hearing lady at the cash register are still the same. At a former employer I was making weekly trips to Chatterbox and sampled a good portion of the menu. I even delved into the baine marie a few times for the 'specials'. I never trust a baine marie without visible steam, so it's nice to see a few whisp rising from between the cracks. As i hadn't been in a while i simply couldn't go past one of my favourite dishes, my yard stick Malaysian dish Ipoh Hor Fun. I wasn't disappointed. A delicious mix of noodles, meats and veg was put in front of me. I had to capitulate and grasp a spoon because chop sticks weren't getting enough of flavours into my mouth. My colleague, wary of the baine marie also opted for noodles, char kway teow. I hear that they too were delicious. I'd also strongly recommend the curry and roti special, the roti is fantastic but add a serve of rice for a dollar to make it a filling meal.
