Good food amidst bad company

So the previous post was a rant on my teammates' behaviour... so let me post the photos of the food separately.

The Korean restaurant that we went to was Ko B Q. It is quite famous in the Bayan Lepas area since it opened.

The side dishes came first. With 15 people and three tables put together, they served us three sets of side dishes. There is an amazing number of TEN types of side dishes! (I think the most I had seen before that is six.)


However they didn't really give us the full set... the first time, we (at the middle table) received nine types, without the sausage. Another table received eight types. The second time (the refill), they gave us ten types, so I took a photo. :P (The sweet potato in the middle of the bottom row was missing two pieces by the time I took the photo.)

I didn't take a photo of all the dishes because I forgot for some of them. The first to arrive was kimchi stew.

(before boiling)
Then there was kimchi pancake, which I forgot to take a photo of. Just imagine a reddish flat pancake... It came with a sauce (something like soy sauce, but not soy sauce, with lots of sesame seeds and spring onions (actually looked smaller than usual spring onions) sprinkled into it) that I really liked. I even used it for the barbecued meat later.

The barbecued meat was grilled on another table and then brought to us in small dishes. So I didn't take any photos of those. However I felt that the pork was drier (maybe over-grilled) than the ones I had at Daorae and Aza Aza before (those were the only ones I had tried).

Then there was topokki.



The first (and only) time I had tried topokki/deokbokki was at K-Pot, which my friend had recommended. In my previous post about it, I said that I preferred the topokki to the kimchi stew there. The topokki here seemed less good somehow, even though the taste was pretty similar as far as I can remember. Maybe because there were too many other good dishes :P The kimchi stew here is a lot better than the one at K-Pot... though I'm not sure whether it's due to the one at K-Pot being a tuna stew. (this one had a lot of ingredients inside...flat rice cakes and pork amongst them)

Besides that we also had japchae (stir-fried glass noodles). That was pretty good too. Better than the one I had at Aza Aza; again, if I remember correctly.

I think I didn't miss out recounting any of the food...if I remember anything else, I'll add it on later!
