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.

Location:

G17, PV128, Jalan Genting Kelang,

*They have another outlet at Solaris Mont Kiara.

Macau Tai Lek Loi Gei Pork Chop Bun (澳门大利来记猪扒包) at PV128

Hi everyone. =)

Today's review is pork chop bun. Yep, I craved for some pork meat so I went to try this Tai Lek Loi Gei.

It's a very famous shop in Macau and it has outlets in Hong Kong and Malaysia. 

Their hot item is their pork chop bun, it's a must try!

Look at their cute pig shaped door handle. 

Their PV128 outlet. 

It's self-service. After you order, wait for your number to collect your things.

According to their poster on the wall, there are promotions for breakfast and teatime. RM8 for a chicken/pork bun with a drink (Breakfast - until 11.30am, teatime - 3pm to 5.30pm).

This is their signature pork chop bun, RM12.90. The pork chop is juicy and soft. I like it!

I have a few encounters at other shops where the pork meat is too hard and difficult to chew but this is not.

The pork chop is marinated until just nice. Not too salty but has the fragrance of their special marinates. The bun is crispy as well.

Some pork chops come with the bones. So pay attention to it while you eat.

Sawdust cake (original), RM5.50. Don't worry you are not eating sawdust though it looks like it haha.

It's actually finely crushed biscuits that we usually use it to make the crust for cheesecakes.

The 'sawdust' is a bit too much, which makes it a little dry, not moist enough. I think they should increase the amount of the mousse/cream instead.

They have chocolate flavour too, also RM5.50 each.

Macau Milk Tea, RM4.50. I don't know is it this outlet only or it's the same for other outlets, the tea is too thick and there is not enough evaporated milk.

You can tell by the look of it. The colour of the milk tea is quite dark. If there is more milk, the colour will be lighter.

It's unpleasant to drink. I was expecting a nice milk tea, as I like HK style milk tea. >.<
