Chi Ka Yin (which directly translates to relatives or own people from the Hakka Chinese dialect) is a Chinese restaurant situated in Bandar Puteri, the heart of a humongous food paradise in Puchong, specialising in Hakka Chinese food. Chi Ka Yin pride themselves in producing a variety of unique, authentic and great tasting, home cooked Hakka dishes at affordable prices, using authentic Hakka recipes that have been passed down many generations, and have been doing so since 2010.

Hakka cuisine places a stronger emphasis on simple, flavourful dishes with great textures. The atmosphere is pretty clean, spacious and brightly-lid, while pictures of the dishes are draped on the walls, somewhat to assist you during order.

Some of the Hakka dishes here that deliver on that promise include Chi Ka Yin’s famous Hakka Abacus Seeds (which are made of yam), salted vegetable fish, pork belly with yam, braised duck, steamed egg with salted egg and pork, salted chicken, yong tau foo, lobak, bitter gourd and salted vegetable soup, stir fried vegetables, pork stomach pepper soup, Hakka fried meat with black fungus mushrooms, vinegar pork knuckle, and much more. Certain dishes like the Hakka fried meat with black fungus mushroom can be had with a serving of either rice or noodles.

To wrap up the meal, a complimentary serving of konnyaku jelly is served. As far as drinks are concerned, a great beverage to enjoy with your meal is the honey lime drink, which helps cleanse the taste buds after the meal.

So if you’re looking for a place to try out some great Hakka food, Chi Ka Yin is a great start. Exploring this restaurant also helps in exploring the Bandar Puteri area for other food options in the future.
