Sae Ma Eul - Korean Bbq at PV128, Setapak

Hi everyone. =)

Today's review Sae Ma Eul -Korean Bbq.

I feel like once I have Korean food, I will be craving for it again and again. Probably because of its sauce which is sweet and spicy, I love it (I don't like those that are too spicy).

This is their PV128 outlet.

It's usually very crowded during the weekends.

Lunch menu.

Dinner and Bbq menu. The price is quite reasonable compared to others that are overpriced.

I like that they use charcoal instead of electrical griller. I know that charcoal is bad but once in a while should be fine.

Their side dishes are refillable and you can take as much as you want (I love it). There is a counter at the left hand side where the side dishes are.

Just like other Korean restaurants, water is free and refillable.

We ordered Jjuggumi (baby octopus), RM23.00 (4 pieces).

Spicy!! I feel that the texture and taste of this baby octopus and sotong (squid) are quite alike.

The rice is RM5 per bowl, quite expensive.

This is Galmaegi sal (pork skirt meat), RM23. I'm not sure this is from which part. We asked the waiter about it but couldn't understand his explanation. 

Nevertheless, it tastes yummy! It remains juicy and soft even though we bbq it for quite a while.

*Recommend you all to try this.

This is the outcome. Look quite dark eh? No idea why. We didn't add any dark soy sauce or what, only cut it into small pieces.

This is Sam gyeop sal (sliced pork belly), RM19. 

I wonder why the pork belly turns out to be very hard and dry every time. Whether it's the waiter who bbq it for us or we bbq it ourselves, the outcome is the same.

I think we put too much oil and the fire was getting big. There was a lot of smoke and the waitress just changed our wire gauze without asking.

She was also very rude. She swept all of our meat onto another wire gauze and caused one of it to drop on the table. Tsk, tsk, tsk...

In the end, we had to use this thing to grill (no idea what is this called).

The pork belly looks like this when it's done.

A good place for those who crave for Korean bbq but look for reasonably priced ones. They don't have any service or government tax as well. 

They have plenty of seats so you won't be waiting too long even if you go on weekends.
