Dinner@Chillis 1-Utama


Continuing with day 2 of my brother giving me a ride, he suggested dinner at Chillis. I love Chillis!

So off we went to 1-Utama for our very early dinner. We got there just before 6:00pm. The restaurant was quiet since it was early.

When I come here with my partner on Fridays or Saturdays (after 7:00pm) the place would be packed. We have to wait for a table and there were a few occasions when we decided to eat elsewhere.

As usual, my brother and I cannot resist our favorite appetizer, the Triple Play. I forgot to snap a pic before we dug in. So what you see here is what was left. Two eggrolls, two chicken crispers and 3 buffalo wings were missing hah..hah..and two celery sticks.


My brother opted for the mushroom burger for his mains. It came with fries and pickles.


I ordered the beef enchiladas which I regretted.


This is my second time ordering this entree. You can't see the enchiladas (there are three) because they were buried by the very generous serving of beans and cilantro rice. It wasn't like that when I had it the first time, there was less beans and rice.

I could hardly taste any beef in the enchilada. This was a very stodgy meal, full of carbs and it would be good for you if you were carbo loading for a marathon. I prefer the enchiladas served without beans and rice or perhaps with less beans and rice.


I was disappointed with my choice and wished that I had ordered a burger or even a salad instead. My first experience with the enchilada was good (that's why I ordered it again) but not this time :(

I don't like to waste food, so I ate almost everything but left behind a small bit. I was really stuffed but still managed to eat some of my brothers fries hee...hee...


For drinks, well......it was iced lemon tea again hee...hee....

I enjoyed the appetizer very much and more so the company. I'm glad that my predicament with transport brought me and my brother together for dinner two evenings in a row. I was very happy those two days :)

  1. Though you were not very satisfied with what you ordered, but I could feel that you were so happy to dine with your brother. It was really loaded with lots of carbs. Though I exercise a lot, I don't want to have too much carbs too.

  2. High 5! I love Chillis too! I always always order the eggrolls started (used to be chilly cheese fries lastime), then burger as my main too.. I usually replace the fries with mash, I prefer their mash, really good, with creamy white sauce on top..

  9. Nearly ten years ago that I ate at chillis. Can see that's so much rice and beans on your plate. I wouldn't like that, too much carb. Can imagine that you are so very full. Good that you bonded more with your brother over this meal.

    1. You have not been back since? I think I know why, the portion sizes are too big? Or the food not to your liking.

  14. The only thing I like about Chilli's....is, well, their chilli! :D Huh, I didn't know that was an enchilada?...I thought it looked something like a tortilla wrapped with fillings?

    1. Strange that I have yet to try their chilli. The enchilada is rolled tortilla with fillings and it is baked with cheese. Somehow I am OK with cheese.

  16. Wow, how interesting and different your Chilli's food is! Ours is a totally different menu and presentation. I haven't been to Chilli's in a while, but I do love and always order the Fajitas, with beef and chicken, and it comes sizzling to the table, which I love!
