Long awaited post. Korean food is my favourite after Thai food. This restaurant is not something new. Has been there in Damansara Uptown for quite some time. I remember visiting the restaurant a couple of months after its launching. The food and service was totally awesome. I went again last month and hoping that the food and service remains excellent. And yes, they did not disappoint me.

The staff was friendly and attend to you quickly, unless there's lots of customers and they are too busy. On the second visit, they do provide grilling service where they will cook the meat for customers if the customers request to do so.

The menu has quite a lot of choices of meat. Prices are reasonable in such environment. Like many others, there must be minimum 2 sets for BBQ orders. I choosed 2 pork meat.

The side dishes attract me the most during my first visit back then. They were delicious and the quality is there. They are still maintaining it. The staff in Han Woo Ri was generous to give us refill on the side dishes as well. Unlike few others restaurant, they are so reluctant and pretended they didn't see us raising up our hands or pretended they were so busy until forgot to attend to my request. When this happen, I get super annoyed.

They also serve a bowl of soup each. Not sure what soup was that called but it was yummy!

A closer look to the pork belly that I ordered. They were big and definitely enough to fill our hungry stomach.

Below is another part of pork meat marinated with their special sauce.

I can't wait again for my third visit. Highly recommended restaurant if you're Korean food lover.

[YummyCooks] Stir Fry Potato Slices with Hot Pepper Paste

This dish came into my mind quickly when I was thinking what can I cook with ingredients I had in the fridge. I didn't refer to any recipes in the internet, so I created a real simple one myself. 

I have one tub on the Korean hot pepper paste but I seldom make use of it. I guess I have to find more recipes that needs the paste. What I can think of is Kimchi Fried Rice, Kimchi Soup and maybe Stir Fry Cabbage with hot pepper paste. 

Below will be the recipe for this dish:

3 to 4 servings

Ingredients:

1 medium US Russet potato, thinly sliced
Half carrot, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
1 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 medium tomato, chopped
1 tbsp hot pepper paste
1 small bowl of water (depends on your liking)
1 tsp soy sauce 

Directions:

1. Boil sliced potato for 4 minutes. Make sure it is not too soft. Set aside.

2. In a frying pan, heat up 2 tbsp of oil in low to medium heat. Then, fry garlic and onion for 1 minute. 

3. Add in carrot, potato and tomato and fry for a while before adding in water. Add in the hot pepper paste and stir well. 

4. Let it boil for 3 to 5 minutes. Add water if it dries up quickly. 

5. Lastly, add soy sauce to taste.

I almost forgotten to share this post. I actually went for a Malacca food trip a couple of weeks ago and stopped by Seremban. A friend recommended this cafe quite some time ago and of course I've been wanting to go since I'm a dessert lover.

Bros. Cafe do serves coffee at the ground floor but I didn't try their coffee. Bingsoo (Korean shaved ice dessert) is served on the first floor and customer have to order from there.

Nak-Cha Bingsoo (RM20)

Just OK.. 

Rating: 3/5

I was having hard time in making decision on which one to order. They have several choices and finally I go for this green tea bingsoo. It was served with green tea ice cream, red bean paste-like topped with nuts and oats and some sweetener. I love the green tea ice cream. The red bean paste was too sweet for me though.

I guess RM20 is a little bit overpriced.

Some descriptions of the bingsoo available.

The menu is available over the counter where they put it in their ipad. :)

I bought Groupon voucher for Korea House BBQ Restaurant few weeks ago when Groupon had promotion of RM20 off for purchase above RM40. So I visited the restaurant on Saturday night. The voucher I bought comes with a selection of 3 types of meat (pork, chicken or lamb). I chosed Pork Belly and Marinated Lamb.
