Christmas Dinner @ El Cerdo

On Christmas Day, Darl and I had our dinner at El Cerdo, a strictly non-halal Spanish pork restaurant.



Extra points for the European interior design which sparked up the romantic ambience.



Rose Raspberry Sangria for me.



White Wine Pear Sangria for him. Both of the wine punch(es?) were equally tasty.



The complimentary creamy mushroom soup before the entrée was served.



It happened that I wasn’t in luck as the marinated frog legs were not available that day. We ordered the mixed appetizer plate instead which consists of French “Rillettes”, Pate of Pig Trotter, Spanish Salami, Pork Liver Pate and Pig Cheek in Wine Aspic. To be honest the appetizer wasn’t appetizing at all. Especially the pig cheek, made me wanna puke. It’s like a jelly with porky taste. The thought of chewing on piggy’s cheeks was enough to turn off my appetite. Perhaps we aren’t used to eating such dishes.



Hik looking cute with the disposable napkin.



Marinated Pork Shoulder Steak is highly recommended! It’s marinated for 48 hours! Super love the onion strips toppings! We finished every bit of this dish!



Slow Cook Tender Ribs. It tastes average. Don’t really fancy it as it’s served with BBQ sauce.



Hik took this and was so proud of it. He even called it his drunk vision of me. Wtfreak. Drink punch also can get drunk ah? How come I look uglier? Thought I’m supposed to look prettier when he’s drunk and horny!



Ze cam-hos XD



I wanted the El Cerdo piggy paper bag, so we asked the waiter to tapao the two leftover ribs! Didn’t know I could look that cute in candid photo. LOL.



The friendly manager offered to take some photos for us. She said must take photos since I’m all dressed up for Christmas. Teehee.



If I were to rate El Cerdo, it would be 4/5. -1 for the pricey mineral water that costs RM5.50. Felt cheated =(

Last but not least, my outfit photo. Heart the lacey dress that fits me perfectly!


That’s the dress that mum forbade me from taking from dad’s boutique, over which I cried and drove home. I drove my way to the shop hours later and grabbed the dress for myself. Mum blah non-stop “ni yao jiu shi yao de hor?”. Of course! How often can you find your perfect dress for Christmas? There was another black one, but white seem more appropriate for the occasion. The funny thing is, the next day I forgot to bring it up to KL! FML. At last had to trouble mum to send it by Pos Laju. “Ni zui li hai ma fan ren”. HAHA.
