Today dinner, I visit this bar called Taps Beer Bar to have my dinner because later there will be an event here called "Bitcoin Bi-Weekly Meetup". This bar is located at the Jalan Nagasari at Bukit Bintang area.
After looking at their menu, I order their Beef Rendang Pizza. The Pizza contains beef rendang, caramelized onions, tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, spring onion, and coriander. After including the service tax, the total cost for it is RM26.50 per pizza.
For those who don't know what Pizza is, it is a dish of Italian origin consisting of a usually round, flattened base of leavened wheat-based dough topped with tomatoes, cheese, and often various other ingredients (such as anchovies, mushrooms, onions, olives, pineapple, meat, etc.), which is then baked at a high temperature, traditionally in a wood-fired oven.
As for Rendang, it is a Minang dish originating from the Minangkabau region in West Sumatra, Indonesia. It has spread across Indonesian cuisine to the cuisines of neighboring Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, and the Philippines. Rendang is often described as a rich dish of meat, most commonly used meat is beef that has been slow-cooked and braised in coconut milk seasoned with a herb and spice mixture until the liquids evaporate and the meat turns dark brown and tender, becoming caramelized and infused with rich flavors.
You can say Beef Rendang Pizza is actually a fusion dish of Italian and Malaysian culinary traditions. The beef meat used for this Pizza is not minced meat but real meat pieces, highly recommend you come here to try it out even if you don't drink beer.
