BUBOR CHA CHA

Price: $20-$40

Grade: C

Malaysian cuisine is the main event at Bubor Cha Cha, a new restaurant in Chinatown. It's named for a coconut-milky Southeast Asian dessert.

Located in the old Grand Chau Chow space on Beach Street, Bubor Cha Cha affects a jungle theme park decor: bamboo, faux palm trees and a tropical island blue sky trompe l'oeil ceiling. Bunches of plastic grapes hanging above the pine booths along one wall are a surrealistic touch.
