5 Home Chefs PJ Residents Keep Coming Back To

One thing we’ve noticed while running Hawkr is that people don’t just look for convenience anymore. They want meals that actually feel comforting, homemade and sustainable enough to enjoy throughout the week. That’s why we work with home chefs around KL and PJ who all bring something different to the table. Some focus on comforting Chinese meals, others prepare traditional Indian food, while some create more modern fusion bentos and Japanese sandos. Here are 5 of our most popular home chefs among PJ residents right now.

1. Ravior

Perfect for lunch or dinner bentos with Asian and Western flavours. If you’re someone who gets bored easily, Ravior is usually one of the easiest chefs to stay on long term. Their meals rotate between Asian comfort dishes and Western-style bentos, so one day you could be having buttermilk chicken rice, while another day might be tomato basil chicken or grilled chicken chop with roasted potatoes. The portions are also especially popular among working adults because the meals feel filling without being overly heavy. Ravior is also a great option for office lunches and events because of how flexible their menu range is.

2. EAT Kitchen

Comforting Chinese bentos and family-style dinners. EAT Kitchen has quietly become one of the favourite choices for customers looking for comforting Chinese home-cooked food during the work week. Their lunch bentos usually include a balanced combination of meat, vegetables and tofu-based sides that feel very similar to something you’d get at home. For dinners, they also prepare family-style meals which many customers order for parents, elderly family members or households that simply want proper homemade food without needing to cook every night. The meals feel simple in the best way possible. Warm, balanced and easy to eat consistently.

3. NMRK Home Cook

Traditional South Indian meals inspired by family cooking. NMRK’s meals stand out because they genuinely feel like food cooked for family. She prepares traditional South Indian dishes with rotating curries, vegetables and rice combinations that many customers say are difficult to find in typical meal plans. One fun detail customers love is that she often creates parts of her weekly menu based on what her elder daughter wants to eat at home, which makes the meals feel even more personal and comforting. For customers craving authentic homemade Indian food throughout the week, NMRK has become one of the strongest favourites around Bangsar.

4. Farm to Home Delivery

Asian-Western fusion meals with lots of variety. Farm to Home Delivery is one of the most versatile home chefs on our platform. Their meals rotate between Asian comfort food, Japanese-inspired dishes and Western fusion meals, making them especially popular among customers who want variety without constantly ordering takeaway. One day could be curry chicken with nasi lemak rice, while another day might be teriyaki chicken with Japanese tofu or lemon white sauce fish with garlic cauliflower. Their meals also tend to photograph beautifully, which is partly why so many customers end up sharing them online after subscribing to our meal plan.

5. Taste By Bert

Unique Japanese sandos perfect for lunch or events. Taste by Bert has become especially popular among customers looking for something lighter, fun and different during the work week. Their Japanese sandos come with fillings like Japanese curry chicken, yuzu salty chicken and Alabama chicken paired with crispy korokke on the side. The meals work especially well for:

A lot of customers also enjoy how easy the sandos are to eat while working or during busy days.

One thing that makes Hawkr different is that our home chefs are not limited to individual meal plans.

All 5 of these home chefs are also available for:

So whether you’re someone looking for homemade lunches during the work week or planning food for a gathering, there’s usually a home chef that fits your needs. Honestly, that’s probably why so many PJ customers keep coming back. The meals don’t feel mass produced. They feel personal, comforting and much easier to sustain long term.
