Won Korean Dining in I-Setan, 1Utama, Selangor has made an immediate impact, stamping it's authority in my list of best ever tasted delicacies of all time! The first time entering, I still wasn't sure about Korean foods until I tasted some of the best delicacies there. With the latest K-Pop on TV as entertainment, a glance through the menu certainly opened up my eyes to new flavours. The names of the dishes were in Korean, but of course explained in English. But having a Korean owner to serve us, it was simply better to get to know the delicacies in perfect details and recommendations straight from a local.
In just 3 weeks time, I've made 3 visits already to the place. And each time, I've never seem to ever miss out on the BBQ delicacy. Well, 1st of all, I highly recommend, in fact the owner herself recommends the Shindangdong Tteockbokki ~~ Korean fry rice-cakes and noodles mixed in thick yummy spicy sauce. This is much better than the one I once had in Ampang Korean Village, not too spicy, thick and creamy, and of course full of taste. It wasn't too salty and it really is good eaten hot. The rice-cakes are not too sticky, nor too hard, and to mix with the specially made spicy sauce is simply amazing. Another special thing about the rice-cakes is that they were imported straight from Korea, so don't ever doubt the quality, the taste simply marvelous!
Next, the main stars, Daepae Samgyupsal (thin pork belly slices BBQ dish) or Samgyupsal (thick pork belly slices BBQ dish)! These two dishes have made mii crave for BBQ every time I step into the place. For mii, both taste excellent when put to the grill, but the thick slices of pork belly stands out most. Crisp, aromatic and grilled with garlic and onions, this is the taste of a lifetime! Our dishes were specially cooked by the owner herself, hence it was a privilege to get a Korean to actually help us make our meal even more appetizing! She even taught us the ways of eating it, two ways in fact, I'll explain later below.
With oil trickling down the gutters of the grill set, you'll taste the whole flavour of the meat, no oil, no porky smell. Just the meat! For health conscious diners, you'll not have to worry about the oil then, simply tantalizing! With some green tea to add to, this meal certainly made our time worth-while.
Each meal comes with refillable side dishes, and trust mii even the side dishes are good themselves. There is also the Jeyook Doenjangjigae, pork slices stirred fried in special spicy sauce (Pictures to be updated a.s.a.p). This is also a favourite of mine, but sadly no pictures were taken for this dish, was too hungry that day! XD Anyway, do go for that, a great satisfaction that!
Last but not least, pictures to sum it all up! It really was a great dinning experience for mii, especially pork eaten in a very different and superb way. I'm going back there again soon, hope to see you guys there too! Many thanks to the Korean lady who helped us introduce and prepare our food, Kamsamnida!!
