As usual, it's just like any other ordinary days of my shopping and relaxing out from work..we went to Sunway Pyramid. I'm always tempted to try out new things which doesn't bore me that fast, so this place somehow caught my eyes.. It's actually a newly opened restaurant with the name Chego Korea BBQ..hmm..I remembered I've eaten once the Korean BBQ style before at somewhere and basically my impression was it's actually steamboat but in a "Korean Way". . But i was suprised to find out that this place is different totally in fact! It has many varieties of single dishes to choose from where you go with rice, noodles, set lunch that comes with the usual dessert and Miso soup....but what really attracted me was the so called "Ginseng Chicken Herbal" which was said that it's the most popular main item that anyone would never miss trying if they are visiting the original Korean restaurant. So, I was thinking to myself, why not?? I'm sure I don't wanna miss out on any good deals to share in my blog , so we ordered!! :D
Wow...the place was so beautifully designed and looks really posh from the exterior and interior and kept me captivated in fact. It gave the true Korean homedining feel effect cos there's one area which gave you the opportunity to dine and relax in a typical "korean style sitting" with a large mat on top of the bench and a small stairway which allows you to take off your shoes and climb up in with bare feets. :P I like it so much, cos I've never experienced that before - ever! haha. Coming back to the dishes..the ginseng chicken was superb and classic..it's unique because they stuffed in glutinous rice inside the chicken and is soaked with the herbal soup to boil. The herbal ingredients consists of ginkyo nuts , red dates and some ginseng. It's of cos lesser inredients if to compare with the traditional chinese ginseng method. . but still the Korean way has succeeded in it's pride and expectation when it comes to Korean Ginseng chicken herbal soup. It's so yummy yummy delicious and nutritious I would say.. :) You should not miss it at all. This costed RM 25 which I think it's fairly reasonable. As for our main dishes, I ordered their fried rice seafood which turns out to be good and fragrantly cooked. They have cuttlefish, prawns and small slices of fish mixture which comes in an average portion that's just nice for me. The rice texture that is used, obviously was different from local ones. It's softer and more moist... It's at RM 18. As for him, he ordered their Rice with Seafood Soup claypot style which turns out differently as well. The soup tasted quite similar like those in Miso soup but I guess there's some Korean herbs and ingredients that has been added in which we can never find out somehow. There are so many fresh big prawns swimming inside and lot's of fresh cuttlefish , clams dumped in which gave it a marvellous touch..ah..I wished I'm having it again and it really made me feel hungry as I'm writing this. ..:P This also costed the same price of RM 18.
Anyway, it's really a satisfying meal that worth the money and environment ..in fact you can actually see through the kitchen and observed the Korean chefs busy cooking. You may be suprised that a large part or almost all workers in that restaurant are basically Koreans. Logically this should happened else there won't be any true original Korean food served to retain the reputation and business of the restaurant in a long run. People will soon find out the truth if otherwise..isnt it?? ;) I came out feeling full and happy...Burrp..** Oopss.. haha. Total bill amount came up to RM 60 Including service and tax charges.
