Su has suggested the venue for gathering at the Brussels Beer Cafe. It's definitely not an old place yet I've never been there, despite that I've been very frequently passed by the Gurney Paragon. I'm really wondering what can I be expecting here...
Being recommended by Su to her favourite drink of Hoegaarden Rosée. It's a sweeter and more refreshing version of the original wheat beer that contains the fruity taste of the raspberries. Elaine and I think that it tastes very alike the "Shandy" that is every child's favourite drink.
We've as usual decided to share the food by ordering the Beer Food Platter and the Mix Grill Platter. The earlier comes with roast pork, fried squid tentacles, bacon that is wrapped with cherries, meatballs and the Belgium frites. The roast pork tastes quite delicious from its saltiness yet the taste and the crunchiness of the skin are way too far comparing to the Asian-style roast pork. The tentacle is coated with too much flour that it tastes very softy and oily. A special idea indeed by wrapping the preserved cherries in the pork bacon, but this is definitely a "No-Go"! The artificial taste of the cherries have destroyed the tastiness of the bacon completely. The pork meatballs are topped with a sweet-based black sauce that contains sauteed onions. The best or my favourite dish is the fries that can't be wrong in the taste. The mix grill platters consists of German bratwurst, lamb cutlets, chicken skewers and beef ribs that are supposed to be served with rotkraut instead of fresh salad. The bratwurst or the pork sausage is too soft in its texture. I'm not fancy over lamb as it's too smelly while Su has commented that the lamb cutlets are indeed too chewy comparing to the one that she has tried with the mom before. The beef ribs taste quite delicious from the marination that contains various herbs and spices. What has pissed me off the most? The chicken meat that is served uncooked on the skewer!
Every dish that has been served to our table is basically quite cold. I'm somehow disappointed by the food at Brussels Beer Cafe. Oppositely, Su is very optimistic that she thinks that they may serve some delicious food here yet we've ordered the wrong dishes.
