Ok, maybe I exaggerated. But it certainly puts a smile on my face especially after a hearty meal. My first encounter with Korean food dates back to 4 years ago at Hauen Khon Restaurant, Amcorp Mall (upper floor, same row as McDonald's).
Haeun Khon - one of my fav Korean restaurants!
They serve a wide variety of Korean dishes, and believe it or not, they sell Japanese and Chinese food too! I've tried some of their dishes before and have no complaints about them. (However, I need to apologize that I'm only going to do a review on one dish for this time. Yeap, just one dish)
The shop is not big, and is usually packed with customers during lunch time. The dim light settings and cute, elegant ornaments were just some of the few things combined to exude a sense of "Korean aura".
Cute umbrellas, lanterns etc
to create a warm & fuzzy feeling!
And as usual, I would order my favourite dish - Kimchi JJikeh set meal (priced at RM15.90) and a glass of hot green tea.
Kimchi Jjikeh *Muah!*
The set meal consists of a bowl of delicious, spicy kimchi soup that will send drops of sweat down your spine! If you can't really take spicy food, you may request for the soup to be less spicy. You will be given a choice of either chicken or beef to be added into the soup. Dipping into the soup is like opening up a treasure chest - a bright light shines into your face as you uncover bits of precious treasures. This is because they add so much food into the soup and by drinking the soup alone is enough to fill up your stomach! They have tofu (which is so smooth), tong hoon (thin glass noodles), carrots, meat (chicken or beef), kimchi, celery, chilli padi and so much more. The taste? Awesome!
A bowlful of 'treasures'!
A few other side dishes are served together with the kimchi soup. Although each portion is very little, it's enough for the stomach especially after emptying the bowl of kimchi soup. The side dishes are not the same each day, so don't be surprised if they serve a different side dish the next time you visit again. The side dishes which I got for that particular day were tofu, ikan bilis, kimchi and papaya.
Smooth tofu that melts in the mouth
Kimchi
Ikan bilis - sweet, crispy and sticky
Papaya
All I wanna say is, RM15.90 for all these mouth-watering food is worth every penny! Can't wait be there again!
