Recently, I had a lovely, lovely meal at My Restaurant. It’s located in Sama Jaya area, or rather just before Kampung Tabuan Jaya. The business is owned by Angela and Walter, with Walter being the previous Austrian chef at Cavary. They set up this restaurant since last year, specialising in pork. Yes, the oink-oink, piggy wiggy meal. Here are the some the dishes that they prepare.

For each table, home-made garlic bread is served. Bear in mind that this bread is literally dripping with oil from the butter. Believe me, it’s a lot of butter in there. It tastes nice but the oil is a lot. Well, it’s not oil, per se, just an overdose of butter.

I’ve always like Caesar Salad that is crispy and fresh and that is not swimming in salad sauce. At My Restaurant, they definitely do it better than some of the restaurants in the city. They serve it with a slice of bacon, rather than using bacon bits.

The picture here is the Grilled Porked Chop with Apple slices. If there’s one thing good about pork, is that it goes very very well with fruit. The fruit is either fresh fruit, cooked fruit or some fruit sauce. Although, my Auntie Maria stays away from any fruit sauce as it reminds her of eating jam with meat. Haha! Anyway, the pork chop was done well and it’s also a fairly thick slice. The grilled apple slices was a nice touch. Errm…and yes… errm… quite a fair bit of oil as well. So be forewarned.

Here is a mix set. I can’t quite remember the name but it’s made up of pork sausages, chicken, pork chop and bacon. This is dish that is for 2 people with all the meat and chips there. And ermm….definitely a lot of oil. I especially like the pork sausage because it wasn’t a frankfuther/hot dog sausage but a real pork sausage. Yum.

Well, isn’t oily stuff taste good? That’s the problem with trying to keep one’s weight down! Anyway, bear this in mind in case you’re going to goto My Restaurant, for those who do not like oily stuff. It has other stuff to offer like chicken, beef and fish dishes but their specialty is definitely pork. One things for sure, nothing is rancid and everything is prepared fresh.

If anyone of you are going, please say hi to Angela. She’s very friendly and will give you a good recommendation for your dinner.

Oh, another thing is that the kitchen is open to the whole restaurant so you get to smell and actually see Walter cooking. It’s interesting to go up and see how your food is being cooked. However, I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re wearing your best clothes. As for the rest of the restaurant, don’t worry about any oil stains. The kitchen seems to have very very good ventilation that you get the nice cooking smells that you really do get distracted during mealtimes.

Enjoy your trip there!
