fun tuesday

yea.....korean food in ipoh! did not really expect to find good korean food here in this city, but i was surprised.

i think this is quite a famous franchise in malaysia. there are almost 10 restaurants already according to the addresses printed on the paper mat on the table.

the one here in ipoh is next to kinta city and haagen daazs is also in the same building. but that will be in the next trip. i really could not take anymore after stuffing myself with bbq meat and kimchi soup.

the place is well-ventilated so you won't walk out with all grease and oil and smoke following you after that bbq session. it is better if you come in a bigger group. that means ordering more food to sample!
all the 10 side dishes that came first and also some sauces. the cabbage kimchi here is good for this fussy mouth of mine. in fact, all the side dishes were good and we finished everything. oh, there were just the two of us.
kimchi jjigae. i miss this so much since i first tried it in seoul last time.

pancake, complimentary from the boss who was there that night. all the workers here are koreans and i also saw korean customers. so i guess this is the most authentic you can get in ipoh.

bbq pork and onion. i wished they could have given us more onions.

marinated pork in sesame oil and chilli sauce. this is the better meat because it was more succulent and sweet. the other above was just plain.

ordered a bottle of soju and i chose lemon soju. so the waiter poured the bottle of soju in a teapot filled with fresh lemon slices. hence, the soju tasted tangy and sweet at the same time. and  i got light-headed by the time i was leaving the restaurant. luckily i wasn't the one driving.

our meal came to rm116 which i think is reasonable.

had a walk around the mall building and ended up buying 2 blouses. cheap cheap one hehehe.....

then went to station 18 mall to get clothes for my cute little nephew in aussie.

went into auntie mode when i was in the shop, and these are what i got. 2 pairs of shorts, 2 tees and 1 shirt. it is more than rm100 here ah. love those tees from osh kosh. only in FOS can you get branded baby stuff at a fraction of the price. one shopping done.

got a call from another kid who was in kampar and we headed there after we finished shopping.

couldn't resist from testing tutti frutti's frozen yoghurt. my first time there.

as you can see, i practised self-control at the chocolate ice-cream machine and only pushed a little into the big cup they provided. i also added some raisins. they would weigh your cup and then charge you according to the weight. i paid rm5.20 for my cup. the chocolate yoghurt was not sweet, so it was quite all right. but i know i won't go crazy over this. i would rather pay for baskin robbins' ice-cream on a wednesday when they give free junior scoop for every junior scoop you buy.

hehe, i couldn't resist getting this new dress. i have always wanted a grey tailored dress and this one fit me so well and there was 50% discount too. it was all business lady look today.

what a fun night i had despite the few hours of hard work i put in at the field with the kids before going. it was all worth it.
