Korean Barbeque

It was a day everyone felt happy. We decided to dine outside and to forget about cooking at home. So, a suggestion was popped out to dine at a restaurant that serves Korean food.

Off we went to Kepong. The shop is opposite Carrefour and is owned by a Korean.

What captured our attention was the filtering system. My husband quickly took a photo of it. According to the owner, the filters are imported all the way from Korea.




Pretty neat, eh?


Beware of hot burning charcoal.



Our food is served. There are many refillable side dishes and the one I like most is the tapioca. Can you see it? The yellow pieces in the small bowl?







Here comes our lamb, nicely barbecued!





And I thought it's self service. Not bad at all! We were taught how to eat lamb the Korean way.


  1. Take one piece of cooked lamb.

  2. Dip in sauce (I'm not sure what sauce).

  3. Place the lamb on a lettuce.

  4. Put some garlic and wrap it up.

  5. Open your mouth and chew!

After all the main dishes and side dishes, we were served Korean rice wine. Great way to end a meal, huh?


The Korean boss and his non-Korean workers who are trained in a Korean way, gave us a 90 degree bow when we were leaving and my daughter returned their bow - 90 degree too and that made everybody laughed.


So, if you wish to try some Korean food but can't wait to step into Korea, try it here!

Uncle Duck Steam Boat

Have you been to "Uncle Duck Steam Boat" in Berjaya Time Square, KL? Hubby brought us there when my parents came up to KL one day.


It's really a different experience dining in this restaurant. All of us loved the food and the atmosphere.



The Shop



The induction cooker on the table. Each person has one.



Food for steamboat - come in a set. There are many sets to choose from and the price is very reasonable.



Putting in the food. Yummy, can't wait to taste that.


The duck. Very delicious.


If you are staying in KL, try it out! If you are not staying here, you may want to give it a try when you visit Malaysia's capital - Kuala Lumpur.

Welcome

Welcome to my new blog. This blog is all about places to visit and food to taste from Malaysia and all over the world. Why do I start this blog? There are mainly 2 reasons:
1) It would be nice to jolt down the places that I have personally visited or places that my family members have visited. A description about the place, the culture, the people and everything about how and when to go for a tour as well as what things to take note would be useful for me and everyone out there who want to go for a tour.
2) Although I can't cook and bake well, I love to dine outside. This would also be a place where I share my dining experience with my friends who may want some ideas about where to go for a birthday celebration or even for a simple family lunch or dinner.
Welcome again and I would appreciate if you could add this blog to your blogroll. Thank you and I hope you enjoy reading and hope we can be friends.
