Thanks to the Hogs Bar Restaurant Team for the invitation.
Hogs Bar Restaurant ('Hogs Bar') is located on the eye catching
Colonial design building in Joo Chiat Road. To be exact, it is just
opposite the Joo Chiat Community Center. While many F&B
establishments trying to make their mark here, it was to no avail.
However, this location seems to be tailored-made for Hogs Bar.

For this tasting, I brought my Chef friend M, as my Little Devil is
on Vegetarian Detox for this couple of weeks. We started with Deep
Fried Chicken Wings ($13). Each serving consist of three pairs of
mid-wings and drumlets. The wings are well seasoned and well coated
with bread crumbs. Crispy on the outside, yet juicy and succulent
inside. In comparison, it is similar to McWings, but bigger in size.

Hogs Beef Burger ($18.50) follow next. The burger was served with
thick cut fries and salad. The beef patty was tasty, flavourful and
cooked to medium, where it's still pink in the middle. The melted
cheese and caramelised onions covered the patty nicely and the bread
holds the burger nicely and soak up the meat jus. The fries are
crispy and good, while the lightly-dressed salad provide a nice
balance to the meal.

It seems to be the trend nowadays to serve something on wooden plank.
Spanish Iberico Ham Flat Bread ($16) is served this way here. Other
than the ham, the toppings consist of cheese, olive, cherry tomatoes,
salad, and shallots. The texture is crispy, fresh and very
flavourful. It will be better if the size is slightly bigger or more
iberico ham though (just my wish).

Overall, Hogs Bar Restaurant new menu provide a good gastropub meal.
It is delicious and unpretentious. I dropped by for one of the EPL
match on weekend, the big screen and sound system are excellent. Give
this place a try and let me know what you think. Cheers!!
