Leo's Birthday Celebration Part 1: Han Mi Korean Restaurant

I was invited by Leo to his birthday celebration. As it was kinda last minute and he wanted to keep things simple, he chose to have dinner at Han Mi Korean Restaurant, located at opposite Bukit Timah Shopping Centre.

As usual, most of the people were late therefore, those who reached first got the privilege to order the food we like. Daphne was damn funny, when she reached, she laughed and said,

Daphne: “Eh leo, I bought a $30+ cake for you!”
Leo: “Really ah?! Then where is the cake?”
Daphne: “I don’t know where I misplaced it! When I alighted the bus then I realized the cake was not with me. Lols! Sorry la, just take it as we’ve eaten the cake.”
 Leo: "............................"

Poor Leo, I could imagine the Gwang Soo song playing at the background. Lololol.


Free side-dishes
I like the ikan billis and mash potato!

Rice Cake
The sauce was sweet with a tinge of spiciness. As for the rice cakes, they were really firm and chewy. I would prefer it to be a bit softer. Quite tasty!


Seafood Pancake
There wasn’t a lot of seafood on the pancake, only a few small prawns on top of it. But I quite like it because I don’t like seafood. Save the trouble of picking them out one by one. Haha. The pancake was soft yet crispy at the same time. Taste great when it’s warm!


Beef and Mushroom Stew
I’ve never tried beef before because I always feel that it has this beef smell. My friends kept asking me to try it as they said beef is the tastiest meat among all. As I don’t want them to change their beloved beef to another dish, I promised that I would give it a try.

Surprisingly, the beef taste pretty good. Don’t even have the beef smell that I’ve always imagined. The meat taste tender and sweet for my liking. I don’t know if the sweetness came from the beef itself or the soup. 


Kimchi Soup

It taste really good! Major Love! Although I was sweating due to the spiciness of the Kimchi, I can’t stop asking for more. Especially when you mix it with rice, its WOOOHHHH~~ I liked this more than the beef and mushroom stew.


Pork Belly

For this dish, only 3 long slices of pork belly is given and it costs around $18. You can cut the pork belly to any sizes you want and bbq it the way you wanted it to be done. If there isn't alot of people in the restaurant,  you can even request the waiter/waitress to cook it for you. They would serve the lettuce and chilli-bean-like-paste as well. I’ve always seen in Korean dramas where couples will do a lettuce wrap and feed each other. It looked so tasty! Finally got my chance to do the same thing, just that I did all the wrapping and feeding myself. Forever alone x100000.


Total bill was around $126 equally divided among 6 person. I will definitely make another visit again!! I love the food there and they serve really authentic Korean cuisine!
