Craft Brews: Brewhouse & Restaurant

January 18th, 2010

I got an invitation from Jen a couple of weeks ago to go take a look at Craft Brews along with a few others. Since there’s gonna be beer and pork ribs involved in that little gathering, i figured why not?

It was a Friday and the king and i were running late for the function cause we got stuck in the horrible after-work traffic. Great.

We were in the car for about an hour plus. I was anxious about running late. He was tired from working all day. We were frustrated from all the traffic and worst of all, we were hungry.

Fortunately, Craft Brews wasn’t that hard to locate. It’s located after Ikano on your right, and Tesco on your left. And that’s according to what everyone else is saying.. which is CORRECT.

It’s just that all i remembered seeing was Burger King on the left and then Craft Brews on my right. Must have been too hungry.. AIYA IT’S THE SAME LAH!

Anyway, parking was an ease. And it’s a damn good thing for hungry people like us.

Thank goodness for good friends like Kel Li and Nigel to save us some seats and food. After registering at the entrance, i stepped into Craft Brews with a place to seat and food waiting for me :)

Gotta admit it’s quite our typical Malaysian style to “chop” some stuff first but okay whatever.

Czech Pilsner, Monster Green Lager, English Ale and Weizen Wheat Beer

Yes, they all look so nice and vibrant. And hopefully i got the beer names in correct order too. However, i was too occupied with the food to even focus on the details.

What am i eating? *omnomnom*
Eh this thing is spicy and i’m still having a sore throat.. don’t care! *omnomnom*
And ohhh.. coloured beer! *OMNOMNOM*

Fail.. fail..

BUT! I managed to knick some info off some other blogs, of course. Ahem, like Kel Li’s and Nigel’s *cough*

There’s the Honey Mustard Pork Ribs, the spicy Tex Mex Ribs and the Caramelized Roast Pork. Honestly, i’m not too sure bout which is which myself but they were all very nice. They even sound nice.

I told king that we have to come back here when my throat gets better cause i want to have more of their food!

Sorry i didn’t get your name

Bacon!

We then had a session which was hosted by Sorry i didn’t get your name, who taught us how to bring out the taste of the beer with certain types of food. We were given some bacon and brownies samples to go with the Green Monster Lager.

I was clueless at first. I examined the food sample that waiters gave us as the host introduced himself. Obviously, i wasn’t paying attention. Oblivious!

Once i heard someone said that it was bacon, i popped it straight into my mouth.. and ate it. That’s when i heard that we were suppose to take A BITE of the bacon and drink the beer along with it -_-

Then i started hunting for another bacon piece (which was Kel Li’s). AHA!

Some fun and games after while the rest of us who didn’t take part exchange conversations. And took pictures.

With my mini takos :)

This could’ve been The Last Supper

When the function was over, we decided to stay at Craft Brews to spend the remaining of our Friday night while the rest slowly left the place.

I had a half pint of Hoegaarden and then i stuck with water after that. Stupid sore throat. But of course, a must have picture with the big ass one.

*grins* :3

Craft Brews is a nice place to chill at. Awesome food and a wide selection of great beers to go with it, decent music, and free wifi. That’s pretty much a whole package :)

Awesome pictures by Nigel. Love from Craft Brews.
