Korean delight @Gangnam Station Shah Alam

We'll if you guys have read my previous blog entry, you would know by now that i am slowly getting korean crrrraazzzyyyy..... So, when my Sistere in law told me that there was a new korean restaurant opened nearby her old tuition centre, we just had to go try it out . So far the day went awesome .. hahaha ... We played a game of old school carom , went for about 4 hours of karaoke and then straight to dinner .
 Since BOTH my Sister-in-law (SIL)Nora Jane and I both are korean crazyy.. hahah .. My friend Wawa and her was the one who influence me in my journey into korean-ism. So, we were watching our korean shows/drama, we said there was a new korean restaurant that opened nearby their house so during our karaoke session it was already decided that there was where we will be having dinner . After the tiring 4hours (actually i could still go on ) ... We made our way to the gangnam station.
Upon reaching , we realize that it used to be a mexican restaurant before it was changed to a korean restaurant . The menu is very limited and the dishes are all sharing sizes and prices are what i would say quite steep . If you were to divide it to the amount of ppl who is sharing, its is actually quite affordable but for me the downside is that you cant try different types of dishes at one go. Since even the basic bibimbap was still unavailable (at the time that i went) , we choose the safest menu item bulgogi set. 

Bulgogi set was served with the following ,
a) Bulgogi set - a huge portion of beef,clear noodle ,mushroom and vege enough to share 3-4 people depending on appetite..=) (Rm60 perportion)
b) All meals are served with an all-you-can-eat side dishes which may vary from day to day but the staple kimchi is of course served. Thou if u asked me the kimchi was too mild ..
c) Rice has to be ordered separately and each bowl is charged . (Rm3 per bowl)
d) All drinks are priced um slightly expensive for my taste even plain water was charged at rm1 per glass.
The array of side dishes that was served when we came. It will change form day to day.. =)
The bowl of rice is expensive but i gotta say it did taste good..
Just look at the huge pile of beef, mushroom and jap chae.. Yummy yum yum!!
My sister in law Nora Jane look how huge it is in front of her ..=)
Close up of the bulgogi..=)
After we put the vege and waiting for it to start  cooking and boiling..
Basically we could pretty much say we were quite satisfied with the portion of the meal is just that if they could offer a choice to get a smaller portions at least we could have ordered and tried several items on the menu at a go ..=).. But other than that i would say the place is quite ok and the taste was not too bad .. But my choice would still be The Street Cafe ..So i guess thats my view on this new restaurant . A last comment , if they could make the place look and feel a bit more kerean would be awesome . Like mayb some decorations and nick-nacks that would make ppl be interested in korean culture more. Buzz Korea!!!

Cheers and till my next entry ..!!
