Gepuklah by Ming Chun
Gepuklah by Ming Chun is an ayam gepuk restaurant in Damansara Jaya, PJ, open since 14 August 2026 — boneless ayam gepuk on nasi lemak rice, RM19.90. It is the work of content creator Ming Chun, and it got here the hard way. Gepuklah started as pop-up stalls at events and food festivals, then ran weekend-only sessions from a shop in Taman Sea in April 2026, where the queues stretched to two hours — Ming Chun's own mother, a retired teacher, waited two hours as number 83. When the permanent restaurant opened in Damansara Jaya, people were lining up before 10am on the first morning. The idea is a Malaysian rewrite of the Indonesian smashed-chicken plate: the chicken sits on nasi lemak rice rather than plain white rice, and the sambal is made with roasted cashews. What to Order at Gepuklah The Boneless Ayam Gepuk (RM19.90) is the dish the queue is for — crispy, deboned chicken thigh over nasi lemak rice with the cashew sambal. On the plates Gepuklah reshares on its Instagram, it comes with a fried egg, greens and cucumber.
