SHIOK OR NOT

I always wanted to go to Ingolf’s Kneipe, the German Restaurant to try out their long German sausages and some other German food and finally I got a chance to eat out at there already. Dad is not a fan of western food so there were only me, brother and mother.

There’s a lot of good feedback and review about this restaurant and this makes it another reason for me wanting to visit there.

It was a Friday night and the tables were already fully booked only left a few seats at the bar area on the first floor, since there’s no choice already, so we went for it.

When I see people drinking some special brewed beer at there, it’s quite tempting although I know nothing about, but then I am not ready for beer yet, under 18, it’s still not my thing.

It’s Friday and there’s no pork knuckles, their pork knuckles is one of their famous dish and only available on Wednesday, and needs reservation too.

Brother ordered a plate of squid ring with wasabi sauce as appetizer, very hot as in the temperature, the hotness and  the crispiness feels good with the creamy wasabi sauce.

Here comes main dish. This is brother’s pork’s belly, serves with salad and mash potato. After putting it into my mouth, I got to say that the taste is like Chinese’ sio bak (hokkien) / siu yok (cantonese) / shao rou (mandarin) or simply known as the roasted pork. The thing that is different is that it doesn’t has the crispy skin like the sio yok. You shouldn’t get rid of the fat part because it only will taste good when you eat with the meat.

Oh god, I’ve forgotten what was this called. This was mom’s and it’s pork (meat), serves with potato wedges and salad. I did try this and the special feel was that it’s different from Chinese-cooked pork, the meat was a little hard to bite and I don’t really favourite this dish.

Tadaaa, here come’s my dish. The German styled famous sausage dish that I’ve wanting to try a long time ago, the Currywurst. Wurst is actually means sausage in German, same thing with salad but french fries. Means that on the table, we got 3 types of potato made food.

Back to the sausage, there’s 2 of them and topped wtih a kind of sweet sauce, taste like tomato and sprinkled with curry powder ala western style. I like it, don’t think it’s spicy because of the word, curry, it’s pretty hard for me to describe the taste, there’s a little bit of pepper taste. The sausage was pork and only then I realized that pork sausage taste better than others.

I had a over-filled stomach after the dinner because I helped myself of mom’s dish too. It’s a place that I will visit again. As for the price, don’t expect to be cheap, dishes starts from RM25 and not very expensive if eating out once a fortnight or a month.
