Pork Knuckles @ The Bierhaus in Taman Johor Jaya, Johor Bahru




Pork knuckles is one of my favourite dishes. So when I heard about The Bierhaus in Taman Johor Jaya, I immediately made up my mind to pay it a visit.


The German pub is tucked in a cosy corner of Damian Bowl Complex along Jalan Dedap 3. I simply love the unpretentious, convivial ambiance here. The clientele is relaxed, cheerful and seemed to be very familiar with each other and the friendly staff. The pub was filled on a Monday evening with people having dinner, drinking, chatting happily or playing pool.


The bar is well stocked with all kinds of local and imported beers as well as wines, whiskies and other liquor.


They even have a brightly lit family dining area outside the bar to cater for families with children who want a good German meal.  

Crispy pork knuckles for RM49


The crispy pork knuckle is indeed crackly, crispy. The crackly skin is my favourite part of pork knuckles. The fats were still juicy while the lean meat was relatively dryer. Taste wise, it felt subtly salty and was lightly flavoured. Dipping the meat in the three different types of sauces (traditional BBQ, tangy Thai spicy chili and a pineapple based dip) helped boosted the meat’s slight flavour. Chili sauce in a large squeeze bottle was also provided.
 
Buttered French beans for RM6


The buttered French beans were excellent. Crunchy fresh beans with rich butter fragrance and taste – so simple, yet so nice!

I really love the friendly ambiance and cheerful banter here at The Bierhaus and would definitely be back for the other traditional German offerings on their menu, especially their Guinness pork knuckle J
