Lingua Gustatio: 5 Korean Restaurants in Penang

Annyeonghaseyo~ With the bombastic Kpop and Kdrama impact, even the Kfood is gaining its significance amongst the Malaysians. Many tens of Korean restaurants have embarked in Penang market and still going very strong. 
Here's 5 which I have compiled freshly. 
哈韩风一直都在吹,而我当然也对韩国kimchi情有独中
这次收集了槟城5所韩国餐厅,去吃吃吧。

1. Kims Korean Restaurant Georgetown
No doubt, it's one of my fav Korean restaurants serving authentic flavorful Kimchi soup and stir fried dishes.
个人还蛮喜爱的一家,味道到位,价格也ok.
All time preferred Kimchi Jjiggae (Kimchi Stew) 泡菜汤
Multiple side dishes and we love the kimchi served in the entire chunks. 
很喜欢泡菜一大块的送上来,其他店家都是给几片而已。
Corns with melted cheese (Mind that the heat is transferred under 
the table to melt the cheese)
桌下有热度可以让芝士融化,和玉米配起来很好吃。
Tteokbokki (Ricecake) 韩国年糕

2. Kyochon @ G Hotel Penang 
Fried chicken and beer/ Chimaek (chi: chicken, maek: beer) have been a trendy combo since the airing of the drama My Love From The Star in 2014. 
自从来自星星的你播出后,炸鸡啤酒就成了一个商机,这里就是炸鸡专卖店啦。
Red Pepper Winglet (RM22.90) might burn your tongue but is yet appetizing.
红辣椒炸鸡翅膀辣味十足,很刺激味蕾。

3. Sae Ma Eul BBQ - Maritime Automall
We find the side dishes not multvarious but the chilli paste was good 
to match with the meat. 
这里主打烤肉,可惜小菜都不是很好吃,也不多样化,不过那辣椒酱还不错呢。

4. Seoul Garden Hotpot (Halal)
Seoul Garden Hotpot ain't serving the grilled meat with steamboat, instead it has gone homecooked, providing delicious set lunch with soup. 
Seoul Garden把自家店面改头换面,就推出了热汤店面。
Dubu Jjigae Hotpot (Rm14.90) 海鲜辣汤
Remember to top up with the Kimgaru Rice (Rm2.14) which is the unique rice balls in seaweed flakes.
可以搭配点五谷饭与紫菜,很香很美味。
Ginseng Wolfberry Herbal Drink 枸杞人参
Ginseng Chicken Soup 健康又很补身的人参鸡汤

5. Mr Dakgalbi (Halal)
Dakgalbi - The Korean stir-fried chicken always ignites my interest, probably because of the exclusive chilli paste. Moreover, the addition of cheese makes it even more tempting!
其实每次去韩国餐厅,我都会点炒辣鸡块可能是他们的辣椒酱真的比较和我口味,这里还加了芝士,很肥更加香浓了。
Double thumbs up for this. *slurps*
