Pork Knuckle at Healy Mac's at Greentown Avenue, Ipoh

As most of us are growing up and work outstation, we might need to plan some special occasions on and off to accommodate everyone and for this year, we push out the Mother's Day celebration to do it together with my birthday, because it is just a week apart, so that my younger sister can join in the celebration.

Anyway, this round we had my birthday as well as Mother's Day celebration at the Healy Mac's Irish Bar and Restaurant at the Greentown Avenue. I will blog about the environment of the place, but in this post, I will blog about one of the dish that we ordered for that day. It is the pork knuckle and the portion served on that day was humungous.

Presentation wise, the pork knuckle is served together with another plates of side dishes of salad and potatoes - so I would say the portion is humungous. It's very tempting the moment the food is served on the table. The plates are clean in the sense there is no food oil around the plates, although the overall presentation of the food might look normal, but it is clean.

Side dish

The food taste, I would say overall it is good. The meat is tender and juicy, I would say, with the balance of lean meat and fat, although I only take the lean meat. I'm pretty sure the pork knuckle is fresh and well marinated with herbs and spices as well as the sauce. I believe the amount of seasoning would be minimal since we don't really feel thirsty after eating. The side dishes make the food a balance diet with the potatoes provide the carbohydrate that we need as well as the fresh salad ensure that we have enough of fiber.

I will definitely strongly recommend the pork's knuckle from this place as it is worth trying, never mind the price tag which is on the high side, but the portion definitely make it up for it.
