Chit chat: A dear friend recently wanted to know what Grits is. You're right to remark that it's a Southern dish. It's similar to polenta. Also known as cornmeal mush. Just imagine Quaker Oats or rather Quaker Corns...???

MY RESTAURANT


Last night, one of my friends suggested dinner at My Restaurant (opposite Hostel Sakura, Toko Electronic) at Jalan Setia Raja, Sama Jaya. It's my first time at the restaurant. Driving towards Sama Jaya Free Industrial Zone brought back many memories of my former workplace - Komag USA. Apart from the endless commercial shophouses sprouting left & right, everything is still much the same. Fast forward 8 years later, the road is sadly still very much pot-holed and poorly lit.

My Restaurant is the perfect eating place for pork lovers. Everything is so "porkie" inside since it is their specialization.

We had the grilled pork. The mashed potato is freshly made (kudos to that) & super yummy..! The bacon & roast apple are perfect accompaniment to the meal. Five out of five for this superbly marinated grilled dish. For the very reasonable price we paid (USD6 per plate) and the generous portion served, I would definitely come back here in December with Adrian.
