Koreatown
YooBin jjang!!

Gah I bet Jeleine is a very happy girl now. Don't be too happy first okay. I don't know my way to Wisma Genting yet. And I won't go walking the whole Jalan Sultan Ismail to look for it okay.
And I still don't think this is the tickets you want la. Anyways, better than nothing la har. Any candidates in your mind you wanna bring along?
-------------------------
Everytime I go to Koreatown Jeleine will somehow sms me asking for some other things one lor. Freakish coincidence. And everyone brought their camera today! Why har?!

Anyway, extremely hungry, went for food first before anything else. Saw this restaurant with Koreans inside enjoying their food, so we chose that restaurant la. Because the others are lifeless ._.

^ Ddeokbokki. Very nice okay?!
The one I ate before at Pavillion sucks to the max compared to this.
^ Dolsot Bibimbap.
Tastes best together with the ddeokbokki sauce. I know people add gochujang, but you should try it with the ddeokbokki sauce next time!
^ Mandu!
Not sure what ingredients are in it, but I hope it's not beef.
Nevermind lah, what I don't know won't hurt me =)
^ The not so many banchan.
^ Pajeon very nice also okay.
Korean food reminds me so much of chinese food. Especially this one.
Finished all! It's damn clean can?! See, all the sauce from the ddeokbokki is gone. Not even a grain of rice is left on the stone pot lor! Maybe only a few sesame seeds left la. We're a group of hungry ghosts LOL. So tempted to order bulgogi but decided to leave and eat something else.
I found the home made ice cream!

Everyone was already halfway through baru teringat of pictures ._. Anyway, it was really delicious!
Like what this says:


Walked around somemore, went into a few marts and bought some stuffs, and then went back home.
SPAM har.
Gah very tired now. Going to bed good night.

Some random conversation with the waiter in the restaurant.
Waiter: (taking order, speaking in Mandarin - but looks like a Korean)
Us: (ask in Mandarin as well) Are you Chinese? Or Korean?
Waiter: (smile) Chinese-Korean
Us: Aaaah.. No wonder.
And then hor, he kept flaunting his Mandarin. But too bad we didn't really understand him cuz he was talking in China Mandarin. Not Malaysian or Singaporean Mandarin. Kind of hard to understand lei. And when we're about to leave,
Us: Do you know any KTV here? Um.. karaoke?
Waiter: (blank) KTV? *think think think*
Me: Noraebang.
Waiter: Oh! Noraebang! There is one above our restaurant!
And then he explained that it's kinda costly and bla bla bla a lot of other things la. Quite nice leh that waiter.

Korea-town
Hello SunYe 누나!
Hello JaeHee 형!-------------------------
Being an Ampang-ian and so close to Koreatown, I am proud to say that I have finally been there! LOLOLOLOL. It looks a little... lifeless to me though. The lack of people in Koreatown is disappointing, maybe I expected too much? I imagined it to be something like Chinatown but no, it was just like any other normal streets, only thing is you get to see Korean marts and restaurants which are void of customers =S I doubt I'm done with Koreatown yet, as I've only walked 2 streets. I believe Koreatown is much more than that =)
ANYWAY
Me, Lim Li and May went there after college and when we arrived, the first thing we did was look for restaurant. We're hungry! We tried to read their menu and since Lim Li was a beginner in Korean classes (I wanna enrol in Korean classes too!), we made her read the Korean characters out loud. Hilarious la I tell you!
She read 렌트 slowly... s-e-n... what? Me and May cracked up... r-e-n-t-eu! RENT! The korean uncle smoking behind us was laughing as well and he corrected our pronunciation. Then we made her read 세트 메뉴 which she gave up halfway. It reads SET MENU by the way.
Okay so we went into the restaurant and ordered dwaeji bulgogi (BBq pork) and doenjang jjigae (soup) *drools* The banchan/s, meat and soup came (in that order) not long after. The waiter/waitress were very patient and polite. And very good service by the way. They answered whatever questions we asked.
Did not label all the banchan because I don't know what are those
The waitress probably thought we're gonna burn down her restaurant by accident because she kept walking past our room and peering in. We just ate and ate and ate. I'm more of a chicken/fish person but the pork was delicious! The banchan/s are what made us full, not the meat ._. I want more meat ㅠ_ㅠ

^ happily showing off her samgyeopsal

^ The black beans that Lim Li is addicted to =_= Korean chopsticks are flat and hard to hold! I prefer round chopsticks.
LOL eat eat eat
the room is nice and private, but it's a little hot because we're stuck with the barbecue stove. 

^ This was the nicest!! This is galbi I think. Feel free to correct me.
^ checking out her 'smoking' squid
^ After an hour or so. We were really really full at this point because we ate a lot of banchan. We said we will finish all the banchan no matter what! ....and the waitress kept refilling them. The lettuces especially.
^ finished(almost) finally!Paid for our food and left. We paid less than RM20 per person. Reasonable la. Went walking around the many marts. LOTTE mart's stuffs are more expensive compared to the other marts =S And there's this one mart which sells expired + expensive stuffs! And they played FTI's song ._. As well as SNSD's, Gummy's and Turtle's.
The uncle inside that overpriced shop kelakar la. When we entered, he looked at us and told the shopkeeper in chinese Woah, han guo nv sheng very pretty hor. He thinks we're Korean? We don't even look like one la okay ._. But thank you for the compliment anyway teeheehee~ He got the shock of his life when we started talking in chinese =P
^ Had ice creams and went home because the sky looks like it's gonna cry soon. And cry it did
-------------------------
I want one! ='( 15,000 won is not much. It's actually cheap! Only 1800 copies in this whole wide world! RAHHHH!! And they don't ship internationally!!! Gek sei ngo la... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzYippee! Someone is coming back soon! Can't wait =)
Oooooooh, someone in PG likes WonBin =P
