Like Toons said, it's a meat feast

Looks good. When you all going?

Just had half a pork knuckle bought from cold storage for breakfast. Keeping the other half for tomorrow. Eat whole pork knuckle one shot sure uplorry in no time. Damn shiok. Only complaint is that got slight porky smell.

I used to buy them when they are still sold per knuckle at a fix price, now it's sold by weight so the cost is much higher. The roast pork is very nice too, may look like dry on the outside but inside is soft.

Toons, when you going to Todai again?

I gave up on Joaquim after seeing the number of people who bought. 24K is nuts. How they going to cater to so many people?

It's still fixed price leh. $17.90. I cheepo. I bought after 8.30pm so it's $10.

Today one is fatty with the tendons and gelatin. Tomorrow will be more crispy skin. I slice off outside parts to keep and toasted the inside parts with the bones. Had 3 hashbrowns to go with it. Shiok. Maybe tomorrow open a can of beer.

I think he means that if we managed to use the coupons very good liao

ya.... cos typical problem with ppl buying too much coupons are either (1) buy too many and forget to use before expiry (or the coupons got lost)... or (2) remember to use but cannot get reservation because too many ppl trying to redeem the coupon at the same time and the restaurant does not have sufficient logistics to handle the surge in demand...

so in the end... u end up pay $$$ for useless piece of paper... u dun even get to eat... so doesn't matter whether quality is there or not...

Likely lunch on a mon or thu in Jun cos my voucher expires in Jun. The waiting staff said there might be a new challenge in Jun. I arrange with you if you're keen.

Erm I eat a pork knuckle by myself every week - okay my two doggies will help a little

It's actually not that much since the actual weight is about 900g including bone

I usually eat it with mustard - sure will get rid of the smell haha

OT a bit - anyone knows where I can find Frenchs horseradish mustard?

Cold Stoage used to have them but they now only stock honey mustard

[twtan14]

Guys and gals, do keep OT discussions to the bare minimum or via the PMs, because a certain someone said I practise discrimination so to shut her up, I will be strict on the OT stuffs.

Hey I didn't know that it's only $10 after 830pm - most Cold Storage I go usually sold out by 7pm lol

Anyway I buy mine from Shop&Save over at West Mall these days

They go by weight by still cheaper than $17.90 from Cold Storage

Giant at Vivo also has pork knuckles at $16.90 but not that nice

Northpoint I always see it selling by weight leh unless they got special promotion whereby they sell by each knuckle? Come to think of it, I have never go to Cold Storage that late before, usually before 7pm.
