Korean Restaurant at Ipoh Malaysia

Jul 21, 2009 Author: admin | Filed under: Korean Food, Korean Restaurant

If you stay at Ipoh, a nice city in Malaysia, you will find a lot of nice food there. Many international restaurants are waiting for you. Some of my favourite restaurant is Yea Won Korean Restaurant.

Yea Won Korea Restaurant (艺菀韩食馆) should be the only place to have Korean cuisine in Ipoh. Few establishments blossomed before but all closed down. The restaurant is located at the row of new shops next to Tesco hypermarket and opposite Jusco. It is also within walking distance to Kizuna Japanese Restaurant.

The airy interior of Yea Won Korea Restaurant (艺菀韩食馆) has no evidence of smoky atmosphere even though no exhaust fans provided above the dining tables. Customer can choose to sit at either normal dining table or an elevated floor which requires them to take off their shoes.

While talking about the food here, regardless which main course customer order, there are about 6 types of banchan served, which include kimchi, muchae (white radish with chilli peppers), the highly suspected Gyeran-jjim (steamed eggs in tofu shape) and salad with mayo dressing and probably others. Although the portion of each dish is not very big, but customer are welcome to request for unlimited replenishment.

Other than that, the Mo Dem BBQ set probably is one of the most recommended meal here, consists of pork cutlets, enoki mushrooms, and onions. The staff there would took the initiative to grill the meat for customer. In order to prevent the BBQ meat to become too oily, they even placed a white paper cup positioned at the end of the grill to collect the grease and oil from the meat. Although the meat were not marinated but customer can eat them with the dipping sauces and leafy greens. It would definitely be a greater taste to use these fresh leafy greens to wrap the meat, side dishes, garlic, and green chilli before dipping the whole bunch into 3 different type of sauces.

Last but not least, Yea Won Korea restaurant owner would definitely recommend some Korean Fried Rice Cakes (韩式炒年糕), which is in red pepper sauce. The rice cakes were quite thick and chewy, while the sauce is bland.

Normally complimentary to a meal, the barley tea is a soothing, Korean style tea, which tastes pretty much like Chinese tea but with a smoother aroma and flavor. Anyway RM3 for a whole jug was not so bad, especially if customer order BBQ set as their meal.

Overall, it is a clean and comfort restaurant with delicious and special food and sincere service. The price is also consider reasonable which worth to have a try.
