Elcerdo @ Changkat Bukit Bintang

Finally after 1 year of planning and talking bout this place, I finally had a chance to visit the restaurant tonight. The place I am referring to is Elcerdo at Werner's Place. It was either here or Bruno's at Jaya 33 for us tonight. Had my fingers crossed and gave them a call this afternoon and they managed to booked a table for 4 at 7.15pm. The place fully booked for the night and we're lucky to be able to have a table tonight.

I had ordered a pot of Chamomile for babe and myself. Yes, I know we should have ordered Red Wine or at least some Hoegarden to go with the pork but I wasn't that much in the mood tonight. (RM16 for 2 pax)

Before the main dish arrived, we were complimented by a bowl of their home made tomato based type of soup. It's really thick (the way I like it) and it's filled with bits of pork in it. A hot soup to warm up my tummy before heading into the main course.

This is one of the first main dish that arrived tonight, Spicy El Cerdo Sausages with Chili, Onion and Bacon. It is also served with some salad at the side. The scent of herbs on the sausages was really strong and it was really nice. The sliced sausages was really nice and I think it tasted better than the bacon which is a bit hard. (RM28/plate)

This is one of their specialty which is the Oven Roasted Iberico Spare Ribs served on Pineapple salsa. Oh this spare ribs was so juicy and tasty. The taste of pork was totally different from the one we normally had. I think we all agreed that local pork had some certain taste on them but this Iberico pork was different. Definitely must order. (RM68 for 2-3 pax)

Decided to try out their Pasta and we had decided to share this plate of Spaghetti Parmigiana which is fried pork covered with cheese with tomato sauce. The portion of the pork was really generous. We were all practically full after this plate of pasta. (RM39.50/plate)

Finally, the one that we all had been waiting for, "COCHINILLO AL ESTILO SEGOVIANO" or 1/2 Suckling Piglet. OK, so I think everyone had already know the story behind the plate smashing ceremony shown above by now. The girl instructed her to pick between love or money and she choose the latter (she's so gonna pay for the dinner tonight!!) and smash the glass into a bin they had prepared. The piglet was taken away to be cut after the 'smashing ceremony'.

The Suckling Piglet was served with some side dishes too. It come with a plate of salad, wedges (but a bit cold) and some brown sauce.

So this is the Suckling Piglet after it's being cut into pieces. Ya I know it's a bit cruel to slaughter a young piglet but there are a good sauce of protein, zinc and potassium to name a few. But it was a bit too fattening for me. I think this is a dish you must try but wouldn't be ordering again on your next visit over. We can't finish the whole piglet and had to take away. (RM118 for 1/2 Piglet).

This is another complimentary drink provided to us during the end of the meal. It is actually a tit of lime juice plus Margarita. This is something to clear your tummy of all the food we had enjoyed for the night.

Their paper bag was so nice and cute. So how was the whole dinner? Service was totally fantastic. One of the best I had experience. Ambiance was truly nice as you can feel some Spanish feel when you're in there. Food was also nice but the piglet was a little to much for the 4 of us. But for those who haven't try it before, you can come over and experience it yourself. Plenty of plate smashing sound during our whole dinner and you all know what that means. Simply Porkielicious~!
