And guess what, this is the first time I felt so much hospitality by that ahjumma and ahjushi who owns that restaurant. It was really an eye opening for us as they were so polite that at some point, I felt so wronged.
We ordered samgyeopsal. That's the most important thing. LOL. The kind ahjumma taught us the correct ways to wrap the grilled meat with the side dishes provided and I tell you, it was yummmmmyy!
*sizzling sound*
Done!
You wrap the meat with sangchu-ssam (lettuce), add with a slice of garlic dipped with gochujang (soybean paste) and aged kimchi. Fold it properly and stuff it into your mouth.
We ordered a bottle of soju (kinda expensive, RM 24, pfft). I have a low tolerance of alcohol so I don't really drink much of that and the taste is a bit sweet with a dash of mint flavour. You better watch out when drinking soju for the first time because it contains almost 19.5 % of alcohol or else, you will be like hooligan.
Samgyetang which means ginseng chicken soup. There are some glutinous rice stuffed inside the chicken.
And this, THIS...is my all time favourite korean dish, dolsot bibimbap !! I did not manage to take the actual pic of the rice as I was watching ahjumma mixing the rice well with ssamjang and sesame oil. So the pic above is the well mixed rice with slices of carrots and many many kind of sliced veges!
Then, ahjumma was kind enough to serve us hand made mochi as desserts for free! There was a mini chat session with ahjumma, practically she shared with us her past stories and how she landed onto the land below wind. She even joked about drinking soju excessively when she argues with her husband. *looks at ahjushi*
PS: In case you may wonder, no, we don't converse in Korean language. Ahjumma of that restaurant speaks English fluently.
