Logenhaus Roast & Grill @ USJ Taipan


                     Logenhaus Roast & Grill has been operating here for close to almost 10 years now and has so far been one of my favourite Western restaurant in this area. In my honest opinion, I think Logenhaus can really be stiff competition to the other Western food outlets here. Service is very good and the waiter will collect your plate the minute you finish your food. And if you tell them you're not done they will be like vultures eyeing to collect your plate. The environment here is very cozy, dim lighting, soothing jazz beats, and the wooden interior gives it a warm look.

  
                    While we were waiting for our  main course, we were given a basket of garlic bread, on the house.






                    Soon the appetisers started rolling in. Hungarian Goulash @ RM 7.00 was the first soup to be served. The Goulash here is really really good, packed with so many flavors you just can't keep track.You try to think but you just can't, there's just to many ingredients in there. But the flavouring was just nice. A very highly recommended appetiser.


                    The next dish that arrived, part of a set which I will later explain. Although it looks like the oxtail given is very little, a generous amount of meat is actually hidden underneath. A soup which warms the heart during cold weathers, the soup is well flavoured with pepper and has a very strong ox taste. And the meat is very tender and  breaks into tiny chunks in just one bite.






                    The first main course to arrive, Spaghetti Bolognese @ RM 18.99. The spaghetti is very well cooked and the sauce is well flavoured, loaded with bits of chicken. Spaghetti also absorbed the sauce very well, making it even tastier.






                    The second main course to arrive, Mix Sausages Platter @ RM 26.99. Germans are famous for their sausages right? And since this is also a part German restaurant, I decided to give this dish a try. The portion of this dish is fairly big, four sausages, mashed potato salad and steamed vegetables. The sausages are quite good, well spiced and cooked perfectly. But the special sausage is the one located on the extreme left of the plate. This sausage might look the same but it's actually loaded with mushroom bits and cheese, very tasty. The mashed potato salad was also very good and the steamed vegetables were very tender.






                    The restaurant's special, Grilled Chicken w/ Spicy Peppercorn Sauce inclusive of a cup of Cappuccino and Oxtail Soup @ RM 28.99, quite reasonable. The chicken is roasted perfectly, the skin just so crispy and the meat is juicy and very tender. Easy to chew. If you ever find the meat dry, you can always dip it in the peppercorn sauce given A.K.A mashed potato sauce ( although a bit spicier ). It also comes with steamed vegetables on the side and some grilled potatoes.



                    The star of the meal, Grain Fed Sirloin Steak w/ Fresh Mushroom Sauce @ RM 47.99. First of all, the meat is cooked perfectly, leaving it with a well flavoured and tender texture. The sauce that comes with it is also very good, thick and well flavoured. It also comes with a portion of Baked Potatoes with Tartar sauce on top. The baked potatoes was so good, very mushy on the inside and blends perfectly with the tartar sauce. Feels like heaven.



                    With a wide variety of beers to choose from, we decided to order a Original Paulaner Beer @ RM 24.99. This beer is slightly better than the likes of Carlsberg and Guiness. The taste of the beer seems to be rather thicker and  stronger than other beers and will not leave you with a bloated tummy afterwards.

FINAL SCORES

Service : 5/5
Hygiene : 5/5
Pricing : 4/5
Food : 3/5

                    Overall it was quite a good experience there, the total bill came up to RM 180.00 inclusive of GST, almost the same with any other Western restaurant. I would return there if I had the chance to. See you soon, until then, Bye!
