My dad treated me to a Korean meal the other day when we got tired of walking around in the Gardens. It’s Dolsot Bibimbap (Some sort of Korean Mixed Rice) with a side of extra sour and spicy Kimchi soup and complimentary sliced potatoes and kimchi. This Dolsot Bibimbap set cost Rm 22.90, if I’m not mistaken, inclusive of some iced watermelon dessert.
I was in heaven immediately when I gobbled these up, not only because the food was nice and to my liking, but because of the good service provided by the lady who owned the stall. I’ve been patronizing her stall for quite some time now, and she never failed to bow and greet me in Korean. Gosh, such good manners. If only Malaysian could also show such manners to others, especially the customers!
Cleffairy: What good will it do to you if you have no manners?
Stoneware? Seems to be the current craze… Not a fan of kimchi though, no…thank you.
I tink so…it’s stoneware, I guess… lol… this dolsot bibimbap very nice… the rice very spicy and savoury…
Koreans and Japanese are very courteous and friendly when it comes to greetings and respect.. 🙂 guess u enjoyed that meal too!
Ya… they’re very polite and courteous, so when makan at their place, feel so good, feel like ppl actually respect us…and they’re so friendly too…

Yes, I still remember this lady although I’ve only patronized her stall just once. Her food is not bad but the set meal is a bit too pricey for me :p
Ya, the lady is soooo sweet, isn’t she? Yea, quite pricey, but I’d go for this stall anytime that the bento shop opposite of this stall. That bento stall… the service… adeihhh!
i lap bibimbap too! thinking about the salmon bibimbap i had at ampang back then makes me hungry!
*DROOL* Salmon bibimpap! I never tried salmon bibimbap wan before… usually it’s chicken of beef…
This one looks like traditional Korean meal. Is the potato cooked? Where is the stall? Lower Ground floor?
Ya… the potato was boiled… nope, this one is not on ground floor… it’s at 3rd floor, just beside Borders at The Gardens.

I love that Bibimbap!!! I first discovered this dish when I lived with Korean students in US back in 90s. I am still addicted to this healthy dish till today. That stall is good and popular with diners.
Let me share the Korean story behind this dish. It was a poor maid’s dish during the old dynasties in Korea. One maid scooped all the left over food served in the palace and she mixed them all together in a hot stoneware as she was not allowed to cook anything. She loved and ate them hungrily till being discovered by the Queen or concubine who caught her eating the weird ‘bibimbap’ dish. They loved it and it became a new dish in the Royal Courts. When you order “Dolsot” you get them in hot stoneware but if just plain ‘bibimbap”, it is without the stoneware.
