Special thanks to Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant for extending this food review invitation.
Update: This business has ceased its operations.
Brotzeit German Bier Bar & Restaurant currently has two outlets in Klang Valley: Mid Valley Megamall and Sunway Pyramid. The latter is located just outside the shopping mall, on the right side of the mall’s iconic lion sculpture. Brotzeit serves German cuisine in a casual, family-friendly setting.
Brotzeit’s breakfast & brunch menu is available on Sundays and public holidays before 3:00pm. One of the bestselling choices is Smoked Salmon & Bacon Slider (RM29.00). The dish consists of toasted multigrain bread topped with smoked salmon, scrambled eggs and bacon. With a balanced taste, this breakfast dish serves as a universal crowd-pleaser.
Waffle & Nürnberger Sausages (RM29.00) is another popular breakfast dish. The base of each piece is a toasted Belgian waffle. Stacked on top is Nürnberger bratwurst, bacon, ham, tomatoes and cucumbers. I enjoy the mouthwatering texture of the sausages; they are satisfying to the last morsel!
Each dish on the breakfast & brunch menu comes with brewed coffee, tea or iced lemon tea. Customers can opt to upgrade the complimentary beverage to Cappuccino or Latte for an extra RM6.50.
Meanwhile, Brotzeit’s Dinner Specials are available from 6:00pm daily. Schnitzel Parmigiana (RM34.50) is a marriage of German and Italian cuisines. Boneless pork cutlet is pounded thin to make it tender. The schnitzel is then coated with crispy breading and fried with butter. Parmesan cheese and tomato sauce cover the top. The dish comes with rocket salad and a side of fries.
The next dish is Pork Fillets On Rösti (RM33.00), which is dressed with black peppercorn cream sauce. Rösti is a Swiss breakfast dish that is made of coarsely grated potato. The potato patty is pan-fried until it turns golden brown. Rösti has a similar texture to hashed browns. This dish includes bacon and rocket salad.
As for drinks, biermischgetränke (beer mixes) are perfect for any occasion. Affensaft (RM24.50 for 500 milliliters) comprises of weißbier (wheat beer) and mango juice with a foamy top. It is meant for casual drinkers who enjoy the cooling sensation of German beer. As for something sweeter, Caramel Brew (RM24.50) is concocted from dunkel lager (dark German lager) and lime juice.
Finally, Apfelküchle (RM24.00 for 4 pieces) is a traditional German pastry where apple slices are coated in batter and fried to a golden crisp. The apple fritters are dusted with cinnamon sugar to produce a tantalizing aroma. Other condiments for this dessert are cranberry sauce and vanilla sauce.
Overall, Brotzeit places emphasis on quality ingredients and food presentation. The kitchen does not cut corners when it comes to food preparation. In addition, the ambience here is welcoming for customers who appreciate good old German cooking.
