Dinner at Oiso Korean Traditional Cuisine and Cafe @ Cheras Leisure Mall

So my dad is really into Korean dramas and after watching the actors eat Korean food as well as seeing the photos from my trip to South Korea, he had the urge to eat Korean food. I'm still crazy about Korean stuff myself. =P  Closest place I could think of was Oiso Korean Traditional Cuisine & Cafe @ Cheras Leisure Mall. I've been here a few times and the food is really nice. Not to mention that the portion and price are reasonable. =)

There were a lot of people so we had to get a table upstairs. Pretty interesting decor. Reminds me of my trip to South Korea. =P

 "The best recipe comes from our heart". It's true isn't it?  =)

There are 2 other outlets aside from Cheras Leisure Mall; Bangsar South City and Taylor's University Lake Side.

My dad found this interesting and was practicing on how to pronounce the sentences. LOL. The longer the sentences, the more difficult it is to pronounce them properly. But he had fun trying.

Bi bim bab (RM16.90)
Rice topped with various cooked vegetables such as cucumber, mushrooms, and bean sprouts, plus meat and a fried egg. It's also served with gochujang (red chili paste), which should be mixed thoroughly. You can either choose to have chicken, beef, seafood, or vege. Mostly the typical Korean dish that people should try.

Chicken BBQ (RM18.90)
Grilled chicken meat marinated in gochujang (Korean red chili paste) sauce. If you're the type that's a picky eater and won't try anything new, I suggest ordering this. Since.. well... it's BBQ chicken. Delicious BBQ chicken. Yummy~

Jap chae (RM13.90)
A colourful dish made with glass noodles, fishcake, carrot, and soy sauce seasoning. A must try.

Sundubu Jji gae (RM14.90)
Spicy stew containing soft tofu, seafood, and sometimes egg. It is served piping hot in an earthenware pot. A little spicy but it's one of my favs.

 Egg Roll... yum... 

 Needless to say, the food was delicious. Just look at this picture. What more proof do you need?

Another thing that my dad has been wanting to try is the Soju (a distilled beverage naive to Korea). I think that Jinro and Lotte are a few of the top selling alcohol brands. Not sure if it's the one he saw in Roof Top Prince but it's nice to try something new.

Definitely one of the places I like to eat Korean food. The food tastes similar to the food in Korea because the owners are from Korea themselves. Not like those other places that claim their Korean restaurants but are opened and cooked by locals.
