Kyung Joo Korean Restaurant, MidValley

-
After a series of disappointments, I decided to give a rest for my further coupon reviews and decided to go somewhere that I have been visited quite frequently. This time is a Korean Cuisine!

The restaurant is Kyung Joo Korean Restaurant located at the 3rd Floor, South Court of the MidValley City. It is the only decent Korean Restaurant in MidValley and of course you can find more over at The Gardens. No wi-fi is provided but the environment is quite clean. This restaurant has been here for years with the same renovation. I wonder why MidValley did not ask them to renew their design.

Among all the Ginseng Tea  that I have tried so far, this is the best ginseng tea with real ginseng taste. However, the ginseng taste only able to retain in the first pot. Once you refill with hot water, you will no longer taste the ginseng. All you can drink at that moment is plain water. It is a very refreshing drink after you had your long movie show and exhausting window shopping which cost only at RM7++
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 5/5
Price: 4/5
Overall: 4/5 - Must try! Refillable and it can served up to 4 pax per pot for only RM7++ with no additional headcount charges.

 
Well, every single time you visit a Japanese Restaurant, you have to order their sushi. Same like Korean Restaurant, you cannot avoid not to order their Korean BBQ. That is the name they live up for it! So must try! Some people says, if a Korean Restaurant which can't even serve their Korean BBQ well, do not even bother to try their other food listed in the menu. Sound pretty logic eh? This is the meat combination of Lamb, Beef, Pork and Chicken @RM48++

So a waiter/waitress will light up the barbecue stove in front of you. They even paused when I was about to take some picture of it. Nice and thank you! So fire is ready, and get the meat ready to burn! Fast and I can't wait! Slurppp!

Firstly, the waiter/waitress will use the onion to wipe the surface before arranging the meat on it so that will have the slight onion taste on your meat later on. They will cook in front of us and make sure the meat is ready to be served. As for a first timer, you can always consult them on how to enjoy the Korean BBQ in korean style. Of course, I will share the steps to you. Beside the meat, they will served you a plate of lettuces (refillable) and two types of sauces. One gives you a salty taste while another one will brings you the spicy taste. (Sorry, no photos..will capture again in my next visit) So here are the steps:
1) Grab a lettuce
2) Put your desire meat on the lettuce
3) What taste you prefer? Salty taste? Spicy? or stay original? Once you decided, just dip a little bit of your preferred sauce using your korean chopstick. (I still do not understand why they need to make their chopstick flat)
4) Once done, wrap them up like you wrap a present without a ribbon and put this tasty gift into your mouth. Yummm!!!
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 5/5
Taste: 5/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 4/5 - Must try! So far, this is the only Korean Restaurant I known of will cook for you. So this is the only place I always find my 10% service tax is well paid of.

To me, I always prefer to have a light dinner because for health wise. So lettuce with meat is just enough for me. However, my auntie feels that a proper meal should have either rice or noodle. So this is the Beef Glass Noodle which she ordered @RM22++.
Outlook: 2/5
Creativity: 2/5
Taste: 2/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 2/5 - Well, this is rated by my auntie as I cannot eat beef.

Yes, we have Ginseng tea refillable, lettuce refillable and one more which is their side dishes are refillable. They will served a total of 7 daily exotic side dishes. The oyster is one of them. The reason I only take the picture of the oyster is because this is the first time I got oyster as one of the side dishes and it was so delicious! Better than any chinese stalls who sells fried oyster for RM10! I think I refilled this plate for 3-4 times. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention! The best part for these side dishes is they are all FREE! Who does not like free stuff especially free food eh? Teehee...

Total Damage: RM98.00 (3 pax)
Ambiance: 4/5
Service: 5/5
Food Serving Speed: Fast
Will I revisit?: Absolutely for another korean food experience

It is my day with my little princess, Ying Ying. She is getting cuter every single day. We had our own sweet time at Coliseum Cafe & Grill Room. This restaurant has been operating since 1921 and this is the first time after 92 years, they started to branch out their restaurant to Plaza 33 and Mid Valley. This restaurant has clinched Malaysia Book of Records award for the "Longest Operating Western Colonial - Themed Restaurant. Their first ever restaurant is at Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman.  It is not easy to sustain this long. They surely has their uniqueness in their menu to keep their customers happy. One of the reason is they are pork free restaurant. This easily encourage Malay citizens which stands more than 70% in Malaysia to enjoy western food in this restaurant.

Penang famous with their local foods and that is the reason there are a lot of hawker center at Penang. One of them is at Jalan MacAlister.

Sports Shooting Club Hatyai (SSC)

Most of people think if you travel to Hatyai and not visiting their temples, you are just wasting your time at Hatyai. As for my personal opinion, if you come to Hatyai and did not go to Sports Shooting Club (SSC) Hatyai to experience the shooting experience with a real gun, I think you are not just wasting your time at Hatyai but you are wasting your time being a human. You only live once and there is no better way to understand these guns than coming over to SSC.   Their gun selections are enough to satisfy your urge. From rifle, pistols, revolvers to shotguns. You would be surprised that their rifle is the cheapest. The price is stated from 890 baht nett for a 15 rounds.  I have tried the rifle, beretta and this Smith and Wesson 4506 .45 ACP. This 45 is my favorite among all with 50m shooting range and 8+1 capacity. One of the most expensive gun to rent here. Basically you are shooting at the target paper like this. You can adjust the range of the target ...

Champ's Bowling Centre, Sandakan

Image
Not really much entertainment in Sandakan even though they are just beside the sea. No nice beach for water activities and the nearest island like Pulau Selingan and Turtle Island are about 90 minutes away. As for the town itself, basically is this bowling centre called Champ's which has a very nice and good condition bowling alley, bowling shoes and bowling bowls if to compare with bowling centres like in KL.  Not very big at all for their bowling centre which only has 12 lanes. Their shoes look so new! Here is a demonstration on how to bowl. Looks pro...I wonder how is the end result. So what do guys think? Is it a strike? They have a lounge here as well. And a cafe too! The price of the bowling is cost at RM4.80 per game per pax. We went at their most peak hours so their price basically has not much different than our KL City price. As for the bowling shoes is chargeable at RM2.00 per pax. FYI, the prices not inclusive government ta...

Restoran Yu Hing, Kota Kinabalu

Image
By the appearance of it, Restoran Yu Hing definitely doesn't look appealing enough to become a tourist spot for you as your dining choice. However, I am still going to introduce to you their noodle. They do serve other variety of food but something worth to be here is only their noodle which is known as Beaufort Fried Noodle. Beaufort is a name of a town in Sabah. This is their very own local delicacies which you won't find it easily at any part of Malaysia or even Sabah. You have to be either in Kota Kinabalu or Beaufort to experience it. We can even hardly able to find a table in this run-down looking restaurant which already suggest that how good they are. Beaufort Fried Noodle @RM9.70 Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 3/5 - Still a common looking noodle to you which does not convince you why I am purposely creating a post just to introduce it? You have to come visit for yourself then. I think the same too when it is displayed right in f...

TWG Tea @Pavilion

That day my dream comes true when I finally able to have my tea time at TWG Tea with my two beloved ladies in my life. Yay! I always meet my Elayne jie whenever I am at KL. Sometimes I feel I am going to make her very bored already but I just love to find her even we do not have to talk a lot. Back to the topic, this is the menu of what you will see from the entrance. They do not just serve tea and bread only. They do serve western meal too but I prefer this place for a great tea time because of their exquisite outlook and comfortable seating. A tea book. Yes, you choose your desired tea from here. There are so many tea to choose from and you will get spoiled with choices. I took almost 15 minutes to choose my desire tea but in the end no result out of it. I had to get a waitress from Shezhuan, China with very fluent English to help me to decide. If you ever wonder what does TWG stands for, it stands for "The Wellness Group". It is established in 1837. If you ar...

Merlion Park, Singapore

Driving in Singapore is really a pain especially the traffic congestion, parking hunting and speed cameras alert which is seems like everywhere. As for parking, weekdays parking is like vampire sucking all your money out from your wallet when the clock keeps ticking. Not just parking but their ERP toll is sucking the money out of your Autopass card too. However, I have realized that the best days to travel to Singapore is on weekends and especially on Sunday. ERP toll is free on Sundays. Parking rate are cheaper on Sundays and there are places are free parking too. Not much cars and peoples on the street on Sundays. Sunday is just perfect day at Singapore! Of course, if you plan to eat their buffets, Sunday will be not a suitable day as it will be super expensive. Anyway, today I just want to share one of the tourist attraction in Singapore which is the Merlion Park. I parked at Fullerton Hotel which has ample of parking spaces and it is only S$5.00/entry. The Fullerton Hotel is j...
