Fogal Meat Market, Sri Hartamas, KL

For my birthday last year end, my friends decided that I should have a lot of meat...
Wah, that's the impression they get of me? ._."
Hmmm, ok ok less meat this year :p
Anyways, what's planned and what's eaten was last year, so here's the food ;)
Jeremy was at Fogal's early, so he had some garlic bread first..
Nicely toasted, garlicky and butterish. Good.
We decided to have the platter for 4, but as jeremy dont take beef; he ordered a side of sausages..
He chose pork and lamb sausages with sides of wedges and greens..Both the sausages were juicy and tasty, the wedges were crisp on the outside, but with fluffy potatoes on the inside..
Then came the meat platter..
Gosh, the amount of meat looks rather intimidating..
There's 2 types of sausages, 2 kebabs, pork bacons, lamb burger patty, lamb chops, pork chop, beef steak and served with sides of chips, mash and coleslaw. Quite a mouthful eh?
We decided to have the chorizo and some lamb+pork sausage. The chorizo (the darker reddish one) was yummy; juicy and spicy, the meat was springy. I find the other sausage too salty though. Lamb burger patty was tasty; tender and moist, cooked just right. The pork bacon was just so so. Beef steak was overcooked and rather hard. Same for pork chop, I find it rather dry and hard at some parts. Need to douse it with apple sauce.. Both the lamb and pork kebabs were fine, quite tender but nothing to shout about. As for the lamb chops, so parts were just nice, while other parts were rather hard.. Sides were average too.
Phew. So much meat.
I guess it's better to order the specific type of meat you want at Fogal's than to have the platter. Somehow I get the impression that all the meat were dunked at the griller and cooked together. But each meat needs to be given different cooking time and attention to get the optimum texture and flavour, no?
Fogal Meat Market is located at N-1-4, Plaza Damas, No. 60, Jalan Sri Hartamas, Sri Hartamas, 50480, Kuala Lumpur.

I've had mixed experience in Fogal's too. Sometimes too salty, sometimes cooked just right, sometimes..... Anyway, it's still one of the better places to get sausages and stuff.
