  SP : Chilled Out - The children concept restaurant
Posted at 10/10/2017 07:04:00 PM



Few months back I brought Xavier to Kidz Paradize which is situated at tHE Spring Shopping Mall to have a play date with his classmate. Noticed this shop from afar, and also because it is beside the playground.

Finally got the chance and privilege last weekend and I googled before going that this place called Chilled Out Restaurant is a Children Concept Restaurant which ehem by all God means, in glowy shiny halo lights, a place where you can meet people and chat in peace while your child gets entertained by something other than a gadget.

I brought Xavier to try the concept, TWICE, and I was so happy throughout the night cause he did not even asked for his phone (which he normally does when he goes out sigh). He was so self-entertained by the playroom, the play guides, the activities, the books that I did not even sweat a bit because worrying that he might cause a commotion.












On top of that, the Chilled Out Children Concept Restaurant also provide a nursery room. Could not take a widescale picture, but it is colourful, provides facility such as sink, sitting chair and comfy baby changing bed. Still got this height measurement on one side of the wall. 



What is a Children Concept Restaurant if not without Kids Menu right? I was quite happy cause they have kids portion carbonara which most restaurants do not, and if they do have kids menu, it be a limited choice of burgers and nuggets - like Xavier hands are too puny for burgers, and nuggets just does not sound fulfilling if you ask me. 

A plus for me too having kids portion Carbonara as usually I would had to eat Xavier's leftover cause adult portion too much for little kid, sometimes I could not handle it, and we just leave it to waste. Furthermore, since it is kids portion with kids price, Xavier not only manage to finish, he also save me bucks!

Besides Carbonara, they have kids size grilled meat, vegetables, soup and burgers too. I was shocked however, to find that they also provide a Baby Menu for babies! Really flexible because mothers carrying babies always struggle needing to bring extra food just for the babies - I inquired about the food they provide for this group of age, and they have puree!

I am still quite impressed with the Baby Menu, so let me elaborate more : They have different flavours of porridge (Sunrise Porridge, Fruit & Yogurt, Oat & Apple, Blueberry Oat, Smooth Baby Rice), Paste (cheese veg, baby pasta, baby noodle), Carbohydrate (Rice & Chicken, Rice & Mixed Fruits, Rice & Mixed Vegetables, Wheat & Honey), Protein (Carrot & Sweet Potato, Apple & Orange puree, Apple puree, Pear & Banana Puree) and even choices of Biscuits and Snacks just for the little one.


Now time for some food picture : 


Before I blabber on with this signature drink of theirs - The Lemongrass drink, 

Let me just put out a little information here. Chilled Out Restaurant is sisters to Kidz Paradize Playground and also VH Green Nature Park (Outdoor Learning Experience) Matang. Hence, the lemongrass used to make this signature drink, is from the VH Green Nature Park garden. Damn savvy and healthy, cause you know where it comes from and it is actually quite money-saving. 

(And it is also the cheapest drink in the menu and a score for those who can drink lemongrass)




Xavier made a new friend/Bro on the first time I visited Chilled Out. Garner, a blogger friend as well, he and Xavier manage to bond over toys. Xavier kept on referring him as bro and even introduced me, my own friend, as his 'bro'. 

So here is a Xavier, scooping soup out for his bro. 










ABOVE : Kid portion
BELOW : Adult portion





Food verdict : Food served was scrumptious. However, just one thing I want to complain - that is THE DAMN PORTION SO BIGGGG! On the first night I went, Garner, Aliey, and Ztie who shared the table with me ordered from the grilled selection and they barely finish. What shocked me the most was the price for the portion. I myself ordered on the second time I went to Chilled Out - the grill chicken chop that costed only RM20, my confident self was beaten by the portion as I could no longer manage. while the beef and lamb priced at RM 30 and RM 32 respectively. 

I also enjoyed munching on the sweet potatoes from the grilled set because irresistible! 

They even have combos with the most expensive costing at RM 45, a mixture of chicken, beef, lamb and sausage accompanied with vegetables, mashed potatoes and corn and it is named as 'Sleeping Monster Grilled'.

The adult menu also offered Asian Delights to which I tried their nasi lemak, it tasted like standard Malaysian nasi lemak with the savoury sambal. 








Activity time : Each week, Chilled Out would changed their activities for variants and there is also no specific time for the activities as the play guides from the restaurants are ready to guide (and play/entertain) anytime. 

When I visited, their weekly activity is this seahorse in a jar and also a demonstration of rainbows ina a jar which I purposely did not watch along with Xavier as I wanted to feel how reliable the restaurant's play guide are. WORSE DECISION EVER : because Xavier had so much fun, he did not want to leave the place, and I had to lie to him saying the shop was about to close. sigh 

I asked the ladies behind Chilled Out whether their play guides are reliable, or whether they can be trusted to handle a child because *vomit blood* to handle children, especially lots of them, you really need a mountain tonnes of energy and patience because children can get rowdy and naughty, and no matter how many hours they run a super huge playground, they will never get tired. (proven) 

The ladies told me, "This is why we put out vacancy position waitress cum play guides - to ensure those looking for a job knows what they will be put up to. Furthermore, they are permanently hired, we will put them into a three months probation at Kidz Paradize AKA Chilled Out sister which is a big playground." 

I silently nod my head with approval. and replied her, "oh so basically they are thrown into the jungle before working as play guides here," because seriously, have you seen kids at a playground with other kids. Many times I had to shout at Xavier not to play so rough. Worse is when a fight breaks out, and even if you told them off, the fight still go on. 

Okay this is quite long-winded with a lot of photos, however, I can really relate that we need a Children Concept Restaurant in Kuching because sometimes I do have appointments or a girly meet up but meeting at a cafe (with strong wifi connection) is not practical if we are bringing children. Furthermore, the price of a coffee at Chilled Out is basically the same as a normal cafe, so I can vouch to mothers, you definitely can come and gossip here with your kids entertaining themselves while you yourself entertain yourself also.

UPDATE : Went blog visiting and noticed how Ztie recorded a video of Xavier during the fun play educational activity. (I thought myself, oh so this is what he did while I deliberately sat at my table finishing my dinner) Thanks Ztie!
