This mammoth sized plate of pork chop ($22 nett) is one of Picnic Café's specials, and boy is it special.

One rib and its mass of accompanying pork is hewn out of an entire slab of prime rib, cooked to perfection and loaded onto the plate. The pork chop is juicy, tender and so bloody delicious thanks to the bone imparting its flavorful wonders into the meat during the cooking process.

Any traces of any off-putting porky stench have been erased from existence with some sterling searing skills, and the whole rib is bathed in a moreish reduction that I mopped up with relish.

The chop is already good enough on its own, but good just don't cut it. A couple of pieces of super crispy pork rind, T H I C C French fries, a salad to make you feel less gluttonous guilt, and Picnic Café's stellar chili jam mix, and you've got a rib made just for your pleasure.
