Dinner with MeatLover. Excited to try, given our previous enjoyable experience at Ask for Alonzo. Ideally the more the merrier to try out the different cuts, but 2 of us was good enough. Nice open space, with 3 functional beer tanks mounted on the ceiling. Too bad we aren’t beer fans. Went for a a glass of US Pinot.

Friendly Polish manager came over, gave a brief introduction to the specials and his recommendations.
Here’s what we had.
Crackers to start.
4 pieces of croquettes filled with pulled pork trotter. Sweet and sour mayo on the side. Crispy and quite filling, but not too heavy.
Baby romaine salad with oven roasted tomatoes, avocado, anchovies with roasted garlic dressing.
4 pieces of Polish pierogies, ie potato and cheese dumplings in butter sauce. Nice.
Main course to share: charcoal grilled Hungarian Mangalitsa pork chop tomahawk. Mangalitsa translates to “hog with a lot of lard” and is pronounced mahn-ga-leets-ah. Indeed, it is one of the fattiest pigs in the world. It also has a lot of curly hair, resembling a sheep. Smelt very aromatic form the grill, highly marbled with creamy white fat with a melt-in-your-mouth consistency, buttery flavour and very tender. Didn’t even have to flavor with the pork jus on the side. Also on the side: long strips of cucumber & dill; super spicy jalapeño pieces and cajun french fries (shoestring).
Dessert: Apple cake with walnut ice cream and salted caramel.
In summary: must-try for pork fans. However, restaurant does not serve only pork, there’s something for everyone- a lot of vegetarian choices and seafood dishes to choose from. Excellent service; tables-for-2 were a bit small tho- the heavy fork and knife kept falling off the small plate and onto the table.
