A Porkylicious Meal at El Cerdo ~ Changkat Bukit Bintang

We have finally made it to El Cerdo – partially due to this convenient Groupon voucher which offered a RM100 voucher for the price of RM60. LC had been singing praises about the amazing pork that they serve so we were really looking forward to this.

The restaurant was quaint with lots of adorable pig paraphernalia to the extent of cute takeaway paper bags with smiling piglets.

To start off – some bread with smoked ham pate. The fragrant paste with a herb undertone was a surprise for all of us. Rich and tasty, it was a good match with bread. The bread however, would have been better toasted.

Opium KL ~ Changkat Bukit Bintang

I came across Opium (previously Werner’s on Changkat) like many others through a deal site. No, I have not been to el cerdo or Dining in the Dark (who has the same owner, Chef Werner Kuhn) so I’m not familiar with these restaurants nor know what to expect. LC however has been to el cerdo and sings praises about their pork, pork and pork so there was a benchmark set for Opium.

Opium is very new – they opened on the 12th of July so it was 18 days old when we paid them a visit. The internet provided me very few leads, here are reviews by eatdrinkkl and foodinkl.

twenty.one kitchen+bar ~ Changkat Bukit Bintang

There are rare occasions that the co-owner of Deliciouslogy appears on Deliciouslogy.

In this case, it was because we were buying him dinner.

Ezel is a ‘5 days after new year’ baby so our visit to twenty.one was somewhere near that date.
