Won Korean Dining @ Isetan One Utama

Yesterday, me and my boyfriend's family had payed a visit to Won Korean Dining at Isetan One Utama Shopping Mall.

The Eat Paradise in Isetan 1U has just opened not too long ago. There are quite a few restaurants in Eat Paradise, most of them serves Japanese foods. I believe that this is a good place where you can chill out with plenty of delicious foods, and of course you have to paying higher price for quality foods.

Actually we have planned to go for Korean cuisine, so maybe we will try the other Japanese cuisine in Eat Paradise next time. For me, especially the Puran B (Japanese spin-off from Plan B). 

Okay, back to topic.

                                        Food not only feeds your appetite but fills your soul.

We ordered a set of Samgyupsal (Grilled Pork Strips) with Hot Stone Bibimbab, Haemulpajeon and Yuja Tea (Herbal Tea that made from citron fruit) that costs RM100++. The set we ordered is for 3 pax, but we think it's enough for us and we decided to add-on some other dishes too! We chose to tried Samgyupsal Duruchigi Dupbab and Kimchi Udon Soup. Both of the dishes cost RM20++, as expected.

Aloe Vera drink. Almost all the Korean restaurants in Malaysia serve Aloe juice. I think that it is because of Korean's healthy concept. I have no doubt that Aloe is good for health too! Besides, I simply love the aloe taste!

If you dine frequently in Korean restaurant, I believe you sure know that there are always number of small dishes (Banchan) served along with main courses. In Won Korean Dining, you can try plenty of small dishes and it is refillable. FYI, I'm not even able to name some of the dishes LOL. But I definitely know...

Kimchi, the essential side dish of a standard Korean meal. Basically, Kimchi is fermented vegetables, usually cabbage, seasoned with chili peppers and salt.

Bibimbap is a common and signature dish in Korean restaurant.Basically, Bibimbap  is served as a bowl of warm white rice topped with seasoned vegetables, and fried egg and sliced meat are common additions. In Won Korean Dining, you can choose different Bibimbap with chicken, pork or beef. We chose the traditional, which is a vegetable Bibimbap.

 The ingredients are stirred together thoroughly just before eating. Looks yummy!

The Kimchi Udon Soup in hot stone pot. The soup is just too awesome. 

Samgyupsal Duruchigi Dupbab, my favorite spicy-fried prok served on a bed of rice. 

I have to say that they are perfect match!

Haemulpajeon, Korean-style seafood pancake, or I can say Korean pizza? LOL

Samgyupsal a.k.a pork belly! You can tell how fresh the meats are.

It is worth pointing out that the waiter/waitress will helps you to grills the pork bellies, so that you no need to worry you might sweating like mad in the process of grilling pork bellies. You can just sitting there, chilling with your friends/family LIKE A BOSS, and get yourself ready to taste the fresh and tasty Samgyupsal!

Almost done, my precious pork belly, come to MAMA!

The grilled pork belly meats are ready! The most The most common accompaniments for Samgyupsal are lettuce, grilled onion and sliced raw garlic. You can wrapped the meat in a Korean lettuce, together with some onions and raw garlic. For me, I prefer eat the pork belly by just dipping Gireumjang, a sauce that  made with salt and sesame oil, sometimes also with a small amount of black pepper. You can always customize it to your liking.

Well, in Won Korean Dining, you'll get what you expecting. In a scale of 1 to 10, I give the restaurant 7 as an overall rating! The environment is normal, nothing can really WOW me. The foods they serve are not bad either, but nothing to rave about. Ask me If I'll come here again in the future? To be honest, I'm not sure, because I want to try out more different Korean restaurants.

So till next time...
