Alright, let’s put your hands together for Java BBQ! If this spot sounds familiar because you reside nearby, you’ve got total food luck. Also, a friendly reminder to not drool at the sight of these pictures. Ready? Let’s get to it.
Java BBQ Serves Deliciously Unique Spaghetti
First of all, let’s talk about the Spaghetti at Java BBQ. On usual occasions, the pasta we know ranges from creamy Carbonara to earthy Pesto. However, here at Java BBQ, they take things up a notch by serving Creamy Cheesy Salted Egg Spaghetti. That’s not all, you can even make your pick when it comes to the accompanying protein, which includes Lobster, Lamb, Prawn and plenty others.
Creamy Cheesy Salted Egg Spaghetti with Lobster
If you consider yourself either a cheese or salted egg lover, then this dish will be heaven equivalent to you. Since it combines cheese, salted egg as well as a side of lobster, you’ll know instantaneously that you’re in for a good pasta adventure. As it includes a good amount of chilli and curry leaves, this plate of spaghetti is packed with fragrance and has just the right hint of spiciness in it. It’s no wonder this is crowned as the crowd’s favourite.
Creamy Roasted Sesame Seed with Tempura Prawn
On the other hand, if you prefer something less spicy, then go ahead and opt for their Creamy Roasted Sesame Seed spaghetti with your very own protein pick. As for us, we chose the Tempura Prawn and the end result is a plate of spaghetti with crispy on the outside and tender on the inside tempura prawn.
Western Cuisine With A Fusion Twist
Spaghetti isn’t the only item on the menu that you guys should try, but you can also give their western cuisine a go. Or, perhaps you can’t decide between creamy spaghetti or delectable western fares. So, why not, give them both a try?
Lamb Grilled with Baked Cheese
The Lamb Grilled with Baked Cheese here is definitely foodie approved. While some are not big fans of the lamb meat due to its innate strong odour but at Java BBQ, the marination process ensures such odour is reduced. In addition to that, what’s a complete western meal without the obligatory coleslaw and mash potato right? One thing worthy of noting is that the coleslaw and mash potato are homemade. As a final touch, cheese will be topped and then lightly torched, creating a perfect Lamb Grilled.
Salmon Grilled
If you’re a salmon lover, then be sure to order it while you visit Java BBQ. Similar to the lamb meat, the salmon fillet here is grilled and bathed with aromatic garlic butter gravy. Also, accompanying this salmon dish is a generous amount of bell peppers as well as carrots. Perfect combo of grilled salmon fillet and fragrant garlic butter gravy is something that you can only get here at Java BBQ.
Savour Delectable Sides and Fresh Fruit Juice At Java BBQ
Aside from both spaghetti and western cuisine, let’s venture into the delectable side dishes that are available on the menu here. Indeed, this spot is perfect for you to feast until you drop due to its extensive menu.
Satay
As Malaysians, we LOVE ourselves a good deal of satay. Something about these skewer perfection that creates a sort of addiction in us. Often times, we find ourselves devouring one after another stick of Satay. If you’re guilty of doing this, then you will find comfort knowing that Java BBQ serves Satay too! The Satay comes in either Lamb, Beef or if you prefer good basic, Chicken. Also, don’t forget to dip into their Peanut sauce which boasts crunchy peanut chunks.
Java Dirty Plate
The very last food item that we highly recommend you guys to order is none other than the Java Dirty Plate. Consisting of Nachos, Fries, Chicken Wings as well as meatballs, this is a literal heaven for those who love to snack. On top of that, the best part is that all these goodies will be topped with a super generous amount of melted cheese. Doesn’t this, in itself make you drool?
Fresh Fruit Juice
Finally, top off your meal with their refreshing fruit juices for a dinner or supper experience that you can never get enough of. Besides, what makes a better thirst quencher than freshly squeezed fruit juice?
Our Honest Verdict
So, all in all, we think that if you love western cuisine but at the same time, you’re also looking for something novel on the menu, then Java BBQ is a must-visit spot. Its fusion concept of both Western and Asian is commendable. Before we go, we’d like to remind you guys to make the Java Dirty Plate an item on your order list. Seriously, we just can’t get enough of it.
