Eurodeli - Run, run, run away!

DSC08104

This little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed at home, this little piggy had roast beef,
and
this little piggy.. became my LUNCH.

Eurodeli for that piggy fix and supposedly authentic European food. What you see in Cumi's background are the famous Swiss-German specialities consisting of over 100 varieties of sausages and ham that are available for you to buy and cook up at home at a later stage. They are also available on the menu.

We paid the Eurodeli in Damansara Kim a visit and found that the outlet that opened in 1997, has recently refurbished. The entrance was full of congratulatory flowers.

For us, the food here was only just so-so. The Bratwurst was too salty and something as simple as the easy-to-whip-up mash potato lacked the potatoey, buttery creamy finish that I like. The sauerkraut was flat and lacked that fermented, vinegarish, cabbagey kick that is essential in a good sauerkraut.

Another point not in their favour was that the restaurant was so understaffed, 3 separate families came up to the bar counter to complain that they were not being served. Eek! Not good.

Taking the set, my lunch came with coffee (strong and good - needed this after the marathon) and a dessert (lame mousse thingy), all for only RM25.00

Man, nothing like the first ice cold beer for the day, especially after completing 21K! We deserve it eh? The only thing I can say about the draft beer at Eurodeli is that it is bitingly, stingingly good! Fresh is not the word.

Good job these people understand the meaning of the word RARE.

Unfortunately the girl's steak lacked the 'aroma-of-cow' (i.e. no bovine meaty taste/succulance)... and felt like it had been BANISHED to the DEEP FREEZE for way to long...

She also likes her ice-cream round and hard, not a wishy-washy, dismal, vanilla heap next to her apple crumble.
At least they got the dessert right.

J&R1U

looks like a weird code... J&R1U...

but it's not.. it's just Jarrod and Rawlins opening yet another branch.. this time, 1utama new wing!



The food is as expected.. pretty good! We had steak and kidney pie - HUGE portion of pie, stuffed full with meat... and they are not stingy with their mash either...

The burger was good.. don't be shy!!! pick as many of your own trimmings and stuff ur face with great gusto... no one's looking ! lol

Jarrod & Rawlins Damansara Heights

So my friend is eager to try out 'the new lenses' from Singapore.. Gawd... why do i have to be the guinea pig.. and at Jarrod & Rawlins as well... such a public place...

since i am no professional at "angling and catching the light with my face"... my friend behind the lens is like yelling out directions and getting more exasperated by the second, at my lack of skill and co-ordination...

like this...

"Don't look at me!"
" Look away!"
" Look natural!"
" OK, eat your food.. angle your fork that way!"
"Don't laugh !"



"Act natural!"

"Don't laugh!!!"

DSC_0037
Aiiyoh.. how to NOT laugh, when you say DON'T LAUGH??!!

I was ready to stick my head in the dustbin, by the end of the night.

The camera person was ready to throw away the lens.

(:P)




Anyway, we love J & R - dining and wine bar deli in a prêt à manger style… Pies, cold cuts, salads, cheeses, exotic sandwiches, grilled mushrooms, caviar-topped shrimp, steaks and a host of sausage varieties are the main items on the menu that attract the discerning hungry.

This place is good because you can have good wines and good food and not get charged the earth.. ,

We love this place.. oh yes we do!
