Tipsy Boar, Seksyen 17, Selangor

Sexy boldness, pork high at Tipsy Boar.

We went to this restaurant, sandwiched along a row of shops in Seksyen 17, for dinner. It was a quiet evening when we took our seats. Having recently renovated, i was a tad disappointed i couldn't take picture with the boar-in-cape mural, but the new drawing of pork parts was a fun change. The decor was plain and the walls were painted in simple white/grey and dark pink lining.

The gate. The window. The door.

Lesson in session.

We flipped through the menu, easily confirming that pork is their main choice of protein, as if the name and drawing hadn't already given it away. Service was polite and helpful.

Belly Bowl. Because it was a rice dish with pork belly. The broccolli was nicely cooked, fried lotus was rather cold but still had the crisp. Calrose rice was soft. Belly feedback below.

Sausage Aglio Olio was delicious. Generous amount of sausage with the right level of spiciness. Pasta was al dente.

Crispy Pork Belly with two sides. I liked the mashed potatoes more but my family preferred the lotus chips. More crunchy than crispy skin, the pork belly itself was not like those Chinese meat rice stalls' roast but Western, chewier version. Dipped with light sauce for added flavour.

Between the two meaty mains, i'd go for the US Pork Ribs. The meat was tender, pulled off the bones, drenched in thick sauce. There was a certain aroma i couldn't quite pinpoint though.

Our favourite for the night was Skillet Rice. The Creole-style tomato rice was yummy, ideal sourness, topped with parmesan cheese, bacon bits and sausage to balance the flavours.

While we ordered single portion of dishes, they were good enough to share to have a taste of variety. A porky pleasure indeed, only that we didn't have any drinks to get us tipsy this time.
