Reasons to visit: over 50 craft beers; charming setting; Sunday roast; excellent meals with a home-cooked feel.
The Sunday roast at Gavel is RM60 per head and the meat alternates between roast beef and a roast lamb leg. It was the roast lamb leg when we visited and I dare say it's the best roast lamb I've ever had. The meat was tender, flavorful (very herby and garlicky but that's fine), moist and very well done.
Banana Pancakes mixed Berries, 16 ringgit. Looks fancy, ey? This has to be a first for me, being served pancakes on a solid wooden platter. I like it 🙂 So, the dish comes with a mini bowl with mixed berries + 2 fluffy pancakes filled with bananas + a real generous portion of good honey. In most cases, I usual have to request for a refill of honey , especially when they use a good one. Considering the price, I understand why they stinge on it but still, as a customer, you need to demand your share, especially when it comes to pancakes. Here though, they literally present you with a lot of honey, so much more than usual that it is highly likely you would request for more. I was literally jumping with glee. The pancakes as a whole was delicious. The pancakes although is thicker than the usual ones – it is not less fluffy , with a sense of lightness to it. Having it on its own with the banana was good enough. Add it good honey and the sourness from the berries – one yummy pancake. Loved it.
While it has potential, Bread and Bricks isn’t ready yet, so I’d recommend giving it 6 months to settle in, or picking a time when it’s empty.
