Very Satisfying Dinner- Daorae

Every time I step into this restaurant, I'll leave feeling very full and satisfied.

Every time I step in or out of the restaurant, the waiters will greet me.

Every time I put their food in my mouth, I feel so happy and satisfied.

Every time I wait for my food, I never feel annoyed because the waiters are preparing the food in front of my eyes.

Every time I have dinner here, I have some free dishes/ food on my table.

I LOVE this restaurant

This is the Kepong Branch which I visit quite often =)

If you wonder how they BBQ the meat in front of you, look at this to get an idea. Oh those side dishes are free flow!!

This is how the second floor's tables look like. Yup, you sit on the floor. You see the pipe hanging down above each BBQ pit? Those are what I call fume sucker LOL!!

The 1st floor which I prefer because the ventilation is better. Spot the sucker!! Hahaha

After ordering to BBQ meat, I decided/ persuaded mom to get Kimchi Jeon Gol which looks like this

It was Mmmmmmmmm!!!!

Look at how it sizzle!! There were mee, tofu, their rice cakes, lean meat, mushroom, kimchi and some vegetables. I ate 4 bowls of it because it was too spicy for my mom and sis. I don't mind, all for me hehe. So nice~~~~

The waiter who served us recognised us as a regular so he served us with his extra sweet smile and made conversation with us. The guy who took our order even came and check if the food was good. The boss himself came and serve the Kimchi Jeon Gol for us!! Hahaha, talk about customer service, this place is number 1!!!

Did I mention I really love to eat at this place?

**********************************

I went home feeling like puking because I ate so much. Anyway, went out with RG and had a nice yum cha session (he blaardy forced me to drink something even though I was so full!!) with him. Honestly the number of times I go out yum cha with friends is less than my 5 fingers and out of this few times, I went out with him the most and never face any awkward silence because he can talk and talk and talk. LOL!!!

Because of that one time he came to my house to pass me some grapes (his mom bought extra from don't know which place), my mom has been calling him "the Grape Boy" HAHAHAHA!! Reminds me of

Hehehe =P

Additional guy in the house + pics2

aoYa, before I talk about that additional guy in the house, let me apologise for not updating my blog and praise this good restaurant once again.

Yesterday was my mother's birthday, so after her long meetings at her office, I met her at the LRT station (Wheee for skipping the change-train-to-KTM part!!!) and off we went and pick my sister up for my mother's birthday dinner. Our initial plan was to let my brother use the car so that he can come pick my mother at the office and me at the LRT station then off we go for buffet dinner at some hotel which I forgot the name but my mother usually works late so plan cancelled and my brother went for his futsal too.

So, we were deciding either to go D'Fortune for Western, Rakuzen at Desa Park City for Japanese or another option. I was actually keen in going to Rakuzen than to D'Fortune BUT mother asked, if we want to go for Korean BBQ so you guessed right, off we went to Daorae again =)

This time, we ordered a beef and a pork for BBQ and a soup set which comes with rice. I went to wash my hands and came back with FREE soup and FREE steamed egg served on my table (Whee!! FREE FOOD!!!). Next, we really enjoyed wrapping the juicy meat in the lettuce and trying to stuck the whole thing into our mouth. The soup and rice set was OK but next time I'm sure to try the hot and spicy soup. The side dishes was splendid too!!!

The waiter who served us was from Nepal so my mother was telling him about where she went when she was at Nepal and got a few other Nepalese waiter's attention and they keep coming to talk to my mother (with extra good services). Each time he (the original Nepalese who is our waiter) approached our table to serve or to change (refill) the side dishes, he'll say "thank you". It was really felt like we were being really served well. A++ for their service.

After almost finishing our food, another FREE pancake complement from the chef arrived (we were stuffed but FREE FOOD!!!) and FREE fruit and FREE drink!!! I was so full, so happy and so satisfied. This is the 1st time I'm going to the same restaurant 3 times and yet feeling so happy with the service and food there =) Kudos to Daorae!!!

**********************************************************************

So who's this additional guy?? Well, it's none other than my cousin brother. He's staying at our place for the next 3 months because of his industrial training and for the first time I don't look forward to it. Instead, I kinda feel that his presence is kinda a nuisance.

I got to make sure Spritz won't attack him because he's scared of Spritz aka dogs.
I got to make sure that he make sure Spritz won't escape when he pushes his bike out.
I got to make sure Spritz wont go near his bike when he comes home because the exos would be hot.
I got to wash, hang and fold extra clothes.
I can't walk half naked at home.
He'll be hogging the computer at home.

But oh well, other than that it's OK.

************************************************************************

For the whole Raya week, I have been hooked on onemanga reading mangas. Seriously addicted that I can sit on the computer chair and read for more than 12 hours straight down!! And on Monday (when Uni started) I was actually tempted to start reading again but my bro shoo=ed me away. Thank god. I've read almost 50 different stories and each stories contain more than 10 chapters and each chapters have at least 30 pages. I am so dead!!!!! Got to start studying and catch up!! =(

Daorae

Last night, my mother decided to bring us to indulge in good food so I suggested Daorae because my 1st time there was good (and it was FOC thanks to RG hehe). Our first choice was Desa Park City's Rakuzen, a Japanese restaurant but it was a Saturday and it was 7ish so the place would be packed hence my suggestion =)

Let me introduce you guys to Daorae a bit. It's a Korean BBQ Restaurant and what I love about this place is the refillable Ban Chan aka side dishes and free food they provide. We ordered 4 types of meat and a bowl of cold noodles and they gave us a free Korean pancake and fruits and rice tea which tasted like barley but extra sweet.

Besides the food, the service there is good too!! They help you BBQ the meat and even joked around and the way they do things are just so professional that makes you really enjoy yourself. They bow and greet you with "안녕하세요" (An nyoung ha seh yo) when you walk in and bow you out from the restaurant with "감사합니다" (kam sa ham ni da). Well, I did enjoy myself and I really ate to my satisfaction even though it was just my 2nd time having a Korean meal (It's really an advantage to have someone familiar with korean food to order for you =)

The branch I went was the Kepong branch and for your information, the famous TVXQ came to this specific branch for their meal!!!

Picture time =P


They use this to BBQ so this is the real authentic BBQ style wei!!

One of the Ban Chan - Kimchi

The pork, waiting to be BBQ-ed

Wrap the meat with this lettuce, add some sauce and the spicy and crunchy fresh green shallots and stuff it into your BOG mouth. YUMMY!!!!

The spicy and crunchy fresh green shallots =)

The free Korean pancake!!

The cold noodle, I think is some cucumber something. I forgot, I just know that it was weird to have cold noodles but I guess it's really cool and refreshing if you eat this during summer (I don't know how hot or cold is the summer since I have not left Malaysia before).

The 1st time I went with Jayne, San, RG and KF, we were at the 2nd floor where we sat on the floor like this picture.

For those who didn't know who TVXQ is =)

Anyone want to try Korean food, this place is highly recommended!!!

the best (yet) gathering!!

PBL yesterday was OMG!!! I was so blur because it was about ECG and I haven't read anything about it yet and the faci (a Doc previously attached to UM) was like trying so hard to stimulate us and get us to the point yet the harder he tried, the blurrer I got. He reminds me of Darren actually LOL.

After PBL, rushed to train station and I got wet because it was raining dogs and cats. I was so cold and I was sure that I'll be freezed to death yet (I guess) the amount of fats in my body helped me to cope. I think getting fatter might do no harm in this case but argh, No FAT!!!

Anyway, Jayne came and picked me up and we went back to her place and catched up for a while then went to (Yes Lai Thin) Daorae, the Kepong Branch to meet Sang. I know why it's special to some people because apparently the TVXQ aka Dong fang Xen Qi (東方神起) actually came here to have their meal and the restaurants around it was full with people or fans trying to get a glimpse on this group of Korean singers.

I am sure this is my best gathering ever!! We had Korean BBQ and we laughed and I really enjoyed myself!! RG came and brought karl Fei along too. We had fun chatting and recalling all those funny moments back at school and laughed real loud. The food was fantastic. They had rice so they were fulled sooner than me since I did not had rice. It's just so funny trying to stuff the whole thing in the mouth and started calling each other BMW (Big mouth Woman) LOL. To enjoy the BBQ like the korean, we had the meat dip in this oil+salt sauce then put some vege and special chilly sauce and AAAHHH...stuff it in your mouth!! Hahaha!!!! Besides the meat and vege, there were side dishes which can be refilled so I was happy eating. I had no guilt eating so much because I didn'e have breakfast nor lunch =P

When we were done with the meal, I jokingly said this meal is on RG and he really paid for my share. I was flabbergasted because I did not expect him to pay!! Each of us got to pay almost RM50 mind you!! But he was like "nevermind nevermind" LOL. Later, Jayne brought me to another restaurant to eat ice cream cake. It's special where the cake is made out of ice cream and the fruit flavour is so rich and when it melts in your mouth..mmmm....

By the time I reached home, it was almost 11pm!! I quickly bath and before I slept, I send a "thank you" message to RG and guess what??! He said the food was not nice and he'll treat me another meal again. OMG, this people, work at Aussie for a few weeks, came back feeling so generous!!! Anyone, wanna ask him to treat?? Hahahha!!!

Anyway, got to rush to lectures already!!! I had real fun with Jayne and Sang and KF and RG!!! Thanks so much for giving me a nice happy memorable first Korean meal!!! hehehe =)
