Restaurant Chappati.Com - It was more than just a grand opening!

Story by Sharen Kaur

It was supposed to be an ordinary outlet opening for Restaurant Chappati.Com but what made the event more than just prestigious and memorable were the number of VIPs (very important people) who had braved the evening traffic to show their support.


                                                                      Red Carpet Nite


As soon as the clock ticked 7.30pm, there was a sudden flow of VIPs and well known industry players. They included Dato' Howard Choo - director of Brahim's Holdings Bhd; Kanesan Veluppillai - the new chief executive officer of Scomi Engineering Bhd; Datuk Viswananthan Menon - CEO of Weststar Group; Tan Sri Ravindran Menon of Subang Skypark; Dato' Mohamad Salim Fateh Din of Gapurna Group and soon to be group managing director of Malaysian Resources Corp Bhd (MRCB); as well as Dato' Rahadian Mahmud - CEO of Magna Prima Bhd. There were also members of the Pahang Royalty and Badri Ibrahim from SPAD.

Among the VIPs were some 80-odd other invited guests. Their arrival was just perfect because as soon as they were seated comfortably in the cool atmosphere, Chappati.Com wasted no time to entertain them with a few dance numbers, with special performance by a Malaysian Bhangra group. Following that was the launch by the founders themselves.

Soon after, all the invited guests were treated to a sumptuous spread of Northern Indian cuisine and western food, with lip smacking Indian desserts.

Badri (from SPAD), upon a special request, sang a number (Sway by Dean martin) much to the delight of the crowd, or his "fans", ranging from as young as 18 months to 76 years old.

But that was not the finale as what followed after dinner and his performance was a hilarious act by the MC himself. Yes!....there was Oppa Bhangra Style with the founders and their family members dancing to the tune, showcasing their respective talent. Not to forget a bit of "joget and some Hindi dance numbers!









And yes, they all managed to entertain those who stayed on until the wee hours of the morning!



Restaurant Chappati.Com is a contemporary Northern Indian restaurant that is located at Jalan Kemajuan in Section 13, Petaling Jaya.
