(Review) My first Korean Meal..

today i had my very first korean lunch. i went out wit a bunch of friends and they suggested this korean restaurant in pj. i was reluctant at first coz.. well.. as most ppl who knew me.. im not really a morning person.. lunch at 12pm is something i dont do often.. but due to certain reason *wink*, i decided to joined them..




so this place is called Restaurant Haeun Khon.. it's located at 3rd floor of Amcorp Mall..

well, at 1st look, the shop looks kinda small for its reputation.. i just googled the restaurant name just now and apparently many bloggers had review this place and i can say, most of them gave the restaurant a good rating..

the interior is kinda average.. but i think they had too many tables and chairs cramp into the shop.. so its kinda difficult for the waiter to move around to send the food to the person who sit at the inner side of the table, when the chairs are blocking the way.. but the service is pretty good i must admit.. the waiters n waitresses are very polite and uses words like 'please' and 'thank you'.. which i must say, is a quite rare sight in KL..





and then, comes the food.. the restaurant has 3 range of food to select from.. chinese, korean and japanese.. but of coz, their specialty is towards korean food. pricing seems reasonable.. ranging from Rm4++ per item to Rm18++ per set.. since this was my first time, my friends suggested that i tried the Kimchi Soup(spicy pickled vegie soup with meat) meal set.. there were 5 of us, so we ordered 3 sets of Kimchi Soup meal set, 1 set of Chicken Bulbogi(chicken with black pepper) and 1 Japanese Chicken Pizza(well.. its like a pizza with chicken and onions topping with fish flakes).

the Kimchi Soup set came with a bowl of rice, a plate of Kimchi, a plate of mixed vegie, a plate of Japanese Tofu, a bowl of Kimchi Soup(duhh~).. and 2 slices of papaya for desert..

well.. i must warn everyone, the chopstick that they give is very flat, thin and is made out of metal.. so its kinda heavy and hard to hold.. for a person who never had any problems with chopstick before, i find it very ridiculous that i had to adjust my chopstick like every 10 mins.. luckily they provide spoon as well.. the food itself for me is quite good.. again, this is because it is my 1st time.. so i have nothing to compare it with.. but since i did not find anything that i dun like about it, i guess it must be quite good.. the soup itself is kinda spicy.. me being a thai, i dun really find it is 'that' spicy as my friends claimed.. i've tried something so spicy that i dare not to touch it again before.. but this one.. i manage to finish it.. with me soaking in sweat of coz.. but that was because the store itself was quite warm(really).. the pizza was really nice.. even though im no much of a fan of fish, the fish flakes really goes well with the pizza.. the soft chicken meat, juicy onions and nice crunchy base.. i really like it.. highly recommend to everyone..

the whole meal cost us around rm18++ per person including drinks.. and its quite filling as well.. so i really think its really worth it.. highly recommended to those who wants to try out some budget + taste good korean meal.. so head down to this address to have a taste of it.. =D

Chapter 1.2 - Muni at SS2..(or was it moony.. mooney?.. murni...? dunno la..)

i bet anyone who lived or familiar with damansara/bandar utama area should already know dat place.. i was lucky to found the place (ok fine, i didnt found it.. a fren of mine brought me there.. but i drove~~).. they had the longest rows of tables at the 'kaki lima' for a restaurant i had ever saw.. and when i said long.. i really mean.. loooong.. i wonder how the workers can remember all d orders for each tables.. the restaurant was quite unique on its own.. i dunno if i should call it restaurant or a mamak place.. oh wait.. even mamak's place are considered restaurant.. anyways.. they have varieties of foods and drinks.. names that i never heard before.. i had this thing they call 'roti hawaiian'. it looks like a normal 'murtabak' but doesn't quite taste like it.. imagine ur daily roti canai married to a burger and it gave birth to this awesome tasting creature.. at first i thought this is juz a pretty lame 'murtabak tak jadi' with burger patties as the meat.. boy, how wrong i am.. there's plenty of stuff in it.. from finely chopped white meat to sausage(im pretty sure its chicken coz i saw malays also dining there..) to pineapples to other stuff dat i dun quite recognize.. anyways.. if u happened to passed by the area.. i suggest y'all look out for d place la.. u cant missed 'em.. it's d shop with the long table rows at the 'kaki lima'..
