All you can eat buffet @ King Ludwig Beerhall

I am not an expert with German food but my knowledge of German food was sausages and all the different sauces you can order such as curry sauce and tomato sauce that go with the bockwurst and the strudel cakes during German lessons.

However in Hong Kong, they seem to associate the pork knuckle with German food.

Anyway the buffet at King Ludwig Beerhall was perfect, I could try a little of something.
I did not expect a lot of native German food but at least there was the pork knuckle and sauerkraut vegetables.

Basically when you sit down, they will put down a plate of freshly done pork knuckles which are delicious.
The skin is crispy and slightly salty and the meat inside is delicious and of course the sauerkraut vegetables which balance out the heavyness of the pork knuckles.

As well as that there were other delicious items such as the sausages, dublin prawns, freshly melted cheese on toast.

Spoiled brat Supersupergirl spoiled by BRAT

I have always wanted to dine here but this restaurant was hard to find.
When they had the popup store at Landmark, I went but they did not serve the full menu, so I went to this branch.

The full menu is listed simply on an A4 sheet of paper. Since I wanted to try so many sausages I ordered the sausage sampler.

I dined at BRAT because I am not fond of pork/beef sausages although I do eat them especially the proper British ones, but at BRAT they have vegetarian and chicken based sausages.
Interestingly there are two vegetarian ones and they are the most expensive at $108 each a la carte.

On the menu, they have 15 different sausages which is quite a choice, and just over half were chicken/turkey based sausages so I had a hard decision choosing which four for the sausage sample.

The choices were: Artichoke, Bourbon, Brat, Chipotle, Chorizo, Frank, Gruyere, Habaneros, Italian, Lemon, Pesto, Portobello, Sun dried tomatos mozzarella, Vegetarian Italian and Vegetarian Choptle.

The four that I selected happened to be mostly chicken and turkey based.
As well as the sausage sampler I ordered the Fries with truffle mayo.

The sausage sampler came with two pickles and two sauces, the four sausages I ordered were Lemon, Portobello, Artichoke and Vegetarian. Lemon (Chicken & Turkey based sausage)
This sausage had Lemon, tarragon, fennel seed and red pepper in it.
I was hoping the lemon would taste strong but it was not and I could only taste lemon rind.

Portobello (Chicken & Turkey based sausage)
This sausage had Portobello mushrooms, dried mushrooms, porchini and sage in it.
This was really nice, not only could you smell the mushrooms you could also taste and see bits of it in it as well.
The colour of this sausage looked like if it was made from pork if you compare it to the lemon.

Artichoke (Chicken & Turkey based sausage)
This sausage had Artichoke hearts, garlic, sun dried tomatoes in it.
The artichoke taste could have been stronger but all I could taste was the dried tomatoes.
The colour of this sausage looked like if it was made from pork if you compare it to the lemon.

Vegetarian
This sausage had Aubergine, red wine, garlic, fennel, gluten in it.
I found this one the saltiest but it was the nicest, however it was slightly dry but I loved the caraway seeds in the sausage.

For the pickles I was given Relish and Saukeraut and for the sauces Whole grain and Dijon mustard. Other sauces and condiments I would have liked to try as well: truffle dijon, mature cheddar and sauteed mushrooms.

Fries with truffle mayo: They served French fries and the fries were perfectly done.
Although the fries were nice on its own, the mayonnaise was really nice too, it was thick and creamy with strong truffle taste.
