Dongdaemun Korean Restaurant

Dongdaemun Korean Restaurant

The soul-warming signature speciality of Seoul's Great East Gate comes to Solaris Mont Kiara: Straight from the Dongdaemun Market district, this is KL's destination for dakhanmari, a whole chicken hot pot, served steaming and satisfying to share.

For fans of unique Korean recipes,  Dongdaemun Dakhanmari is a delicious delight - its 'one-chicken pot' is the top temptation, but there's more poultry pleasure to try, from traditional whole fried chicken to Korean-imported chicken feet, for the ultimate Korean chicken kitchen.

Rest assured of Dongdaemun Dakhanmari's authenticity - this Korean-run restaurant relies on a 30-year-old secret recipe for its hot pot, focusing on farm-fresh chicken as well as a wide variety of Korean-cultivated vegetables. It makes its soup from scratch without stocks and shortcuts, its own sauces and noodles, resulting in honest flavours that taste home-cooked.

Dongdaemun Dakhanmari is one of Solaris Mont Kiara's most spacious restaurants, with a bright, beautiful window view of the neighbourhood's lush lands. It's calm and comforting, with convenient parking in the SohoKL complex.

It comprises the whole chicken in the pot, plus a generous assortment of about 25 vegetables, including plenty of potatoes and spring onions in the soup. It comes complete with noodles, as well as a choice of porridge or rice balls for carbohydrates. 

First, the tender chicken is cut into pieces, with minced garlic added, before being boiled for 10 minutes. Vegetables and rice cakes are then added to simmer for at least five minutes in the soup, naturally rich with ingredients like mushrooms, radish and onions.

The first serving is ready to slurp! Select your favourite parts of the chicken, plus the cooked vegetables and rice cakes, dipping them into the spicy sauce or devouring them with kimchi.

It's an excellent experience, with multiple steps and courses - we love the soup, with its wholesome flavour and restrained texture. It's light enough that we won't feel bloated having several bowls but ultimately hearty so that we'll leave completely fulfilled.

If you're craving a chill-fuelled affair, binge on the Braised Spicy Chicken & 2 Rice Set (RM88) - this unleashes the heat and firepower, in a sultry, sweat-worthy set for two persons.

For a faster, fuss-free fowl feast, check out the Korean Traditional Fried Whole Chicken (RM58) - hand-marinated and whole-fried in true Korean style, it's gently crisp-skinned, harbouring superbly succulent flesh, juicy but not oily, producing poultry of quality.

Fun fact: This chicken is ideally eaten at the restaurant - but even if you take it home, it'll remain crisp-skinned for a few hours, thanks to its time-honoured technique of cooking. 

The Honey Soy Chicken (RM58) is lip-smacking if you prefer your Korean fried chicken saucier - harnessing farm-sourced honey, the flavour is pleasingly mellow, not overpoweringly cloying, making this a refreshing change from commercial Korean fried chicken.

Dongdaemun Dakhanmari goes beyond chicken meat - for offal enthusiasts, the Stir-Fried Gizzard & Garlic (RM38) is moreish for munching, with the crunchy gizzard complemented generously by aromatic garlic cloves, served sizzling with sesame seeds. 

The Chicken Feet Soup & Rice Ball (RM55) could be a full course on its own, full-bodied and full-flavoured - if you're chicken feet aficionado, bookmark this for your next indulgence.

The  Charcoal Grilled Spicy Boneless Chicken Feet (RM68) is extra-convenient, with no bones to worry about. With a subtle smokiness, these prove irresistible, collagen-rich and lusciously smooth instead of leathery - the perfect after-work dinner-and-drinking snack!Dongdaemun 동대문 area isn't only notorious for its late night shopping, it also includes dining with restaurants operating non-stop 24 hours. The stretch of lane located behind the 3 prominent shopping malls in Dongdaemun (Hello apM, Migliore and Doota) is filled with Korean BBQ restaurants waiting to replenish your stomach after shopping up a storm. Butumak 부뚜막 was the first Korean BBQ restaurant we had during our Seoul trip.

Korean Barbecue Experience

Butumak, a brightly lit corner restaurant on a corner lot, seems to be quite popular not only to the locals but also the Japanese tourists.

Most of the restaurants in Dongdaemun area are tourist-friendly, with well-written English and Japanese menu and waitresses that can speak in Mandarin.

Most of the grilled pork prices range from KRW 10, 000 - KRW 12, 000/pax (RM 28.50 - RM 34.20) and grilled beef prices range from KRW 17, 000 - KRW 20, 000/pax (RM 48.45 - RM 57) with minimum serving for two people. We had one serving each of samgyeopsal 삼겹살 (Pork Belly) and Marinated Beef.

Dongdaemun, Auckland Cbd Review

Like any other Korean restaurants, a wide array of banchan (side dishes) will be served as starter before the main course begins. Of course, you can ask for more without any extra charge.

True to the Korean tradition in food, even the richest foods are made healthier with the addition vegetables like lettuce and garlic.

Not every Korean BBQ restaurant in Seoul uses the traditional charcoal stove. Butumak uses the more common grill pan over a stove built into the center of the table. Don't worry about not knowing how to cook, the waitress usually takes care of it. Unless she is extremely busy and your food is burning, you better do some flipping!

Despite lacking the smokiness flavor from using a charcoal stove, it is definitely less messy and less likely to over burn. No Korean BBQ is complete without ssamjang 쌈장 (Chili Soybean Paste). The best way to eat the grilled meat is to wrap it with fresh lettuce, ssamjang, garlic and shredded scallion - ssambap 쌈밥 (Korean Lettuce Wraps). Ssam means 'wrap' in Korean, and bap means 'rice'. Besides using rice in the wrap, there is endless variations of what that can be stuffed in it. Besides grilled or barbecued meat, Butumak does serve various noodles and rice dishes. Ttukbaegi Bulgogi 뚝배기 불고기 (KRW 6, 000 / RM 17.10), marinated minced beef cooked with vegetables and glass noodle in a hot stone bowl. We just love the dramatic bubbling cauldron action as it arrived. The stew was lightly sweet and generously filled with tender minced beef. This dish definitely warmed our hearts in the cold rainy summer and we finished it all in the blink of an eye! Dolsot Bibimbap 돌솥비빔밥 (KRW 6, 000 / RM 17.10), rice with mixed vegetables in a hot stone pot. Mixed it really well with few spoonfuls of gochujang 고추장 (hot pepper paste) sauce. It was okay but it wasn't as good as our favorite place for dolsot bibimbap at Gomone in Ampang Point. It was probably due to the lack of ground beef and less sweetened gochujang sauce. Verdict: Butumak is a Korean restaurant that never sleeps. Despite operating 24 hours, the quality and freshness of their meat is good. The taste is decently good with relatively reasonable price.
