Shinmapo Korean BBQ (SS15 Courtyard)

Dinner

Shinmapo is a popular international chain restaurant and it's now in Malaysia! After weeks of waiting in hopes that the crowd will die down, it still hasn't but I gave in to a 10pm dinner and landed myself in an outdoor seating. Do note that the heat from the Bbq pit gets really hot so it gets stuffy quickly.

What makes Shinmapo stand out from its contenders? From the luxurious Galmaegisal (pork skirtmeat which i rate 10/10), Budae Jiggae (sweet and spicy soup consisting of various hams, kimchi and chilli just like Korea’s Military stew) to their volcano fried rice (RM25), dishes like these were what lured me in to try it out and I wasn’t disappointed. The Shinmapo Signature Set perfect for 2 pax costs RM88, a reasonable amount for the food that you’re getting. The Kimchi Egg Ring Crust caught me off guard as it’s still a rare sight in Kuala Lumpur but it tastes delicious and creamy nonetheless!

Annyeonghaseyo!

The very first Shinmapo outlet from Korea is finally in Malaysia at SS15 Courtyard!

If you are a Korean BBQ addict like me, go for the Shin mapo Ultimate set, which has various pork choices, prawns and pineapple! The Marinated galmaegi is a must-try!

Fist rice was fun, as you will experience making it yourself.

Personally, I love the volcano fried rice. Remember, the right way of eating is half portion of egg and 1 portion of rice.

Ended my lovely meal with cups of Soju😋
