Love Korean Fried Chicken? Get UZU Korean Boneless Fried Chicken Delivered to Your Doorstep

How long has it been since I enjoyed dining out with my family and friends? Well, I don’t know. It’s really been awhile since the Covid19 pandemic crisis strike. I don’t feel safe to dine out anymore, and even more so these days. Seeing how the Covid19 cases keep pointing up, I decided that it’s best that I quietly stay home for now and do what I love to do best during my free time; binge watching Kdramas and swoon over handsome Oppa.

Handsome Oppa are certainly swoon worthy. That’s a given, but marathon-ing Kdramas has a huge drawback, which is those mouthwatering food scenes they featured. God, that’s pure torture. I’ve forgotten how many times my stomach growled furiously each time I see scenes where they practically angled those Korean delicacies to your nose, giving me endless cravings for it.

Anyway I was rewatching the Kdrama Goblin and there’s this scene where one of the characters in it owns a fried chicken restaurant and was service loads of em. Upon seeing that, I knew I had to get myself some ‘fried chickin’.

My most recent craving was Korean Fried Chicken, and so I got myself these delicious UZU Boneless Korean Fried Chicken via Foodpanda.

UZU Korean Boneless Fried Chicken can be ordered through Foodpanda delivery website/apps or through their Facebook page.

UZU Fried Chicken is offering 6 different fried chicken flavours and some other daebak delicacies for you to choose from.

The fried chickens are all bite sized pieces and boneless and comes with a side of sesame yuzu salad, making it a perfect companion for Kdrama binge-watching or a quick meal during for those who are busy working.

Korean Boneless Fried Chicken-Original Flavour (RM19.90)- Adeptly fried with flour batter, this one is great for those who prefers a simple and non complex flavour.

Korean Boneless Fried Chicken (RM19.90) Hot Shocking Flavour- This one excitingly spicy and leaves numbing sensation on your palate, so it’s not for the faint hearted. It’s really spicy and only those who have acquired the enjoyment for such flavours will be able to eat this without crying. It’s fun to eat, though. Yours truly loves spicy food so I like this one alot. Great for ‘eat spicy food’ mukbang challenges. Just make sure you have a glass of milk ready on the side if you can’t stand spicy food.

Korean Boneless Fried Chicken (RM19.90)- Soy Garlic Flavour- Slightly savoury with a hint of sweetness, this flavour warrants an addiction for all fried chicken lovers. Great on it’s own, and even more so if you want to pair it with a bowl of piping hot steamed rice.

Korean Boneless Fried Chicken- Honey Butter Flavour (RM19.90)- Drizzled with sweet honey butter sauce, this flavour is my personal favourite. It’s not cloyingly sweet a d it’s so pleasant on the palate. This is highly addictive as well. Highly recommended for those who likes sweetly flavoured fried chicken.

Korean Boneless Fried Chicken Cheese Snowing Flavour (RM19.90)- Richly flavoured with slightly sweet and salty snow-like cheese powder, this fried chicken will definitely win the heart of cheese lovers.

Korean Boneless Fried Chicken Sweet and Spicy Flavour (RM19.90)– If you like spicy food but not really that adventurous and wouldn’t want that tongue-burning sensation after taking a bite, then this flavour is for you. It’s midly spicy with a hint of sweetness. Again, this is great on it’s own or paired with a bowl of piping hot steamed rice.

Dakgalbi Fried Rice (RM19.90)– Dakgalbi is a very popular dish in Korea, especially in Chuncheon, a city in Gangwon Province where the dish originated dated back in the 1960’s. It’s originally spicy stir-fried chicken dish made with boneless chicken pieces, rice cakes green cabbage, sweet potato, and other vegetables. This is the fried rice version of it. It’s a tad spicy and comes with a side of kimchi, and topped with generous amount of stripped seaweed and sunny side up fried egg. A wholesome dish, great for those who want a filling and satisfying meal in a box.

Japchae Glass Noodle (RM19.90)- Japchae is a Korean mixed vegetables dish. When it was first invented in the 17th century, japchae was a noodle-less dish. But nowadays, the main highlight of the dish is glass noodles, which is made from sweet potatoes, along with colorful vegetables and well seasoned meat. The one from Uzu doesn’t contain any meat, but it’s delicious nevertheless. The portion is really huge, and is great for sharing.

Cheese Rice Cake (RM19.90)- Love teokbokki (Korean rice cakes) but not really in the mood for the messy sweet sauce? Well then, try the fried version of it instead. Coated with bread crumbs and stuffed generously with gooey cheese, this dish gives you quite a gastronomic experience. Cheese lovers will definitely love this Cheese Rice cakes.

Overall, all I can say about the food is pure love. Daebak! Not only they’re selling some satisfyingly delicious fried chicken for you to indulge in, but they have wholesome comforting meal like Japchae and Dakgalbi fried rice too. And oh, I forgot to mention that if you can’t live without banchan, you may order their kimchi white radish pickles too. They’re freshly made, I assure you.

For those who craves for some delicious Korean boneless fried chicken, you may want to order some from Uzu Chicken. Below is the details:

It’s been rainy lately and monsoon is coming. That can only mean one thing for me; the islands in the East Coast of Malaysia will be closed for diving season and there will be no diving for me until at least March next year, since flying to other diving destinations in Malaysia is not quite convenient during this Covid19 period. It’s going to be a really, really a long wait until the next diving season is opened again.

Well, in all honesty, I still can dive if I really want to. There are plenty of stunning dive sites in Sabah, but I rather not fly all the way from KL to Sabah. It’s a real hassle to adhere to RMCO SOP. I hated wearing masks in public. Although it’s said not to affect any of our oxygen intake, but I felt as if carbon dioxide built-up really quick whenever I wear those masks and it makes me feel suffocated and breathless. I very much rather just stay home unless I really have no other choice but to go out.

So, since I don’t really go out, how do I run household errands? Well, easy. These days I’m quite taken to doing everything online, including shopping for groceries. Shopping used to be so much fun, but with social distancing, mask wearing being compulsory and whatnot, going to malls these days feels very much like a chore I need to finish quickly, and I just hate that feeling.

Since Covid19 hits us all, I practically do all of my shopping via my PC or my smartphone. It’s really convenient, I must say.

One of my favourite shopping platform is PG Mall. Have you heard of PG Mall? If you haven’t, then allow me to share with you all about it.

Established since 2017, PG Mall is THE ONLY local e-commerce platform in Malaysia that ranked Top 3 at Iprice Insight Report. So, what’s good about PG Mall that they reigned the Top 3 ranking at Iprice Insight Report? Well, for one, PG Mall accepts all e-wallets and payment gateway, making it extremely hassle-free and convenient to shop without worrying about the payment channel to use.

Anyway, since I’m not busy diving and enjoying the underwater world somewhere, I did some peeking at PG Mall so that I could start doing some shopping for Christmas and Chinese New Year, and I’m ecstatic to share with you that they’re currently having crazy sales and promos around. I’ve compiled it up for you, so check it out, people!

Is Diving A Safe Sport?

2020 by far have been a very challenging year. We not only have to deal with pandemic crisis but recession too. Global lockdown and traveling ban were imposed during the first two quarter of the year before restrictions were slowly eased. As someone who is passionate about travel and extreme sport, living in confinement is not an easy thing. I thought I’d go insane from having to stay home for such a long period of time, and so when restrictions were eased, I quickly made plans to do things that I’ve always wanted to do, eg: diving.

I’ve always been passionate about diving, but September 2020 is somewhat jinxed and bears some bad news to us all Malaysian divers. Within the span of just one month, the Malaysian divers community is shaken by the news of 3 diving accidents that causes death. One is an Open Water Diver in Tioman Island, while another two are an Open Water student and an instructor in two different cases in Redang Island.

As a consequence to the news, plenty of naysayers are trying to discourage me from further pursuing my passion and education in diving, but I’d like to reiterate that diving is relatively a safe recreational sport and most accidents are usually caused by health issues and accidents are sometimes caused by neglects.

Scuba diving is enjoyed by thousands of people around the globe and it is considered a low-risk activity in comparison to many other outdoor and sports activities.

Let me share with you, especially non-divers on how it’s like before Open Water certification students/ divers are allowed to dive in the open water, so that you can have an insight on what it’s really like before we divers are allowed to dive;

First, there would be briefings on what you can expect from the upcoming dives.

Divers will be informed on dive plans, dive sites, max depth, maximum bottom time, weather conditions and standard procedures should any unexpected issues arises.

Certified divers who haven’t dive for quite some will be required to do some dive check/or a refresh dive, to ensure that they still remembers their diving skills. During the briefing, divers will also revise their hand signals so that miscommunications does not happen when they are underwater.

Then there will be the equipment set up and check, where everything will be inspected properly to ensure every single diving gears are in good conditions. This is to prevent accident from equipment malfunction and failure.

And then there’s also equipment fitting session if divers are using rental equipments instead of their own equipment. Proper weighting to enable divers smooth decent is made as well during this session.

Diving is not a solo sport. So nobody dives solo unless they are a certified Solo Diver. Yes, you need a special license for that. In each dives, all divers who don’t already have a personal dive buddy will be assigned a dive buddy that you will dive with throughout the entire dives. If it’s a course there will also be accompanying Dive Master(s)/ instructor’s assistant(s) who will assist the instructor throughout the entire course to ensure the safety of the students. If it’s a fundives, there will also be guide(s) who will guide divers throughout their dives. No one is unaccompanied throughout the entire dive.

Buddy check; we divers always will look after our buddies and do safety checks on each other’s equipment prior diving and ensure we understand each other’s hand signals.

Now, only when everything is double checked, divers will be allowed to dive. And even then, nobody is allowed to dive beyond the plan and the depth that they are certified for. Everyone are also reminded to be extra careful and alert while diving.

Of course, like any other activities in the natural environment, there are inherent risks in scuba diving that cannot be fully eliminated. However, with proper training and when following strict diving practices, the likelihood of a fatal accident is low, and diving is still a relatively safe sport to participate in.
