It’s a bright day and it’s after office dinner time for us. There’s this happening Porchetta place in Loop Graha Family and we haven’t had a chance to try it, until the day finally came that we could lay our hands on these bad boys.

Porchetta basically is roasted crispy skin pork belly, rubbed with herbs and spices (especially rosemary) and rolled into well, a roll of belly then cooked in the oven until its skin turned golden brown and crunchy (not just crispy) with juicy meat. Served kinda shredded on a sharing plate to share (or not, up to you) with 3 kind of sauces. We picked Sambal Matah, Thai Green Chilli and Crispy Chilli sauce. That’s one item.

The next one, loaded fries. Pig loaded fries. Yeah you read that right, it’s so good that it became the cover photo of this dinner. Chips/fries were cooked to perfection, crispy but not greasy, and the pork pieces, well, perfect on their own. Who doesn’t love crunchy and juicy bits of porks?

The last would be that Geprek again 😂 simply because I need my rice but having just a plain steamed rice won’t do, I want my extra protein and flavour. Iga Geprek (fried beef ribs smothered in sambal/chilli sauce) was the chosen one for me. Fall-of-the-bone tender meat pieces with rendered fat and tendon will make you fall for it over and over again.

When you have the chance to visit Loop Graha Family in Surabaya, make sure to give these 2 restaurants a visit. You won’t regret it, trust me.
