Dubu Dubu

It is mid-week!!!! Hang in there foodies! :D This juicy review is on a Korean Restaurant at Mid Valley, Dubu-Dubu. 


Spacious restaurant but super packed.

Pa-Jeon (Korean Pancake) RM11.50-ala, RM12.50-set
-The pancake is a #musttry when you visit any Korean restaurant. Super delicious! The sauce they gave was sweet and sourish but the pancake was extra yummy when dipped into the sauce. However, it was kind of oily..but tasty! haha

Honey Garlic Bulgogi Beef/Chicken
Beef: RM18.90-ala; RM20.90-set
Chicken: RM15.90; RM17.90
**All sets are served with 3 banchan (side dishes) of the day as well as Dubu-dubu rice (RM3) and soup.
-When you visit Dubu-Dubu, it is advisable to order a set. Look at the price difference. Seriously, super worth it. If you're not a super big eater, 2 person can actually share one set. Just order another bowl of rice (beware, the rice is also quite a lot). The beef was a little overcooked for me. It was super rough and couldn't really taste the honey too. The side dishes were super tasty! The soup was-- YUMMY. I love miso soup a lot but...this was even tastier! But the soup should be drank when it's served hot (for best taste).


Korean Spicy Wings RM16.90; RM19.90
>Dubu-dubu's version of Korean fried chicken
-Ordered this because the display set of this dish looked super good. The fried chicken wasn't really 'fried' because of the red sauce that was covering it; made it a bit less crunchy. The seasoning was quite delicious. I thought to myself that it probably wasn't gonna be enough but i almost couldn't finished the dish! I was so full! The kimchi side dish was super spicy!!!! hahah But pretty good. The macaroni was served cold which was quite tasty as well!

Cheese BibimBap Beef/Chicken 
Beef: RM18.90 (ala), RM20.90 (set)
Chicken: RM17.90 (ala), RM19.90 (set)
-Apparently this dish was not that tasty. The cheese smelled (if you're not a cheese lover, you might hate it) and it was pretty hard to swallow; couldn't even finish this dish because it wasn't that appetizing anymore. Wouldn't recommend this at all especially if you despise cheese.

Dubu Dubu Bingsu RM8.90
-Dessert! This was pretty delicious. I think it's their popular dessert at Dubu Dubu. Worth trying :D

Citron Dubu RM7.90
-Some might like it, some might not. Depending on how much you love the citrus taste. This wasn't a 'wow' or 'mmm' to me. It was just--'meh' The dessert was not cold enough and the overall it was pretty sweet.

Mustard Smoked Chicken RM13.90; RM15.90 (**limited time only)
>Smoked chicken with chives and spring onion in creamy sauce with a hint of mustard 
-This one was pretty yummy! I loved the overall sauce for the chicken. The meat was tender. Not bad actually.

Aloe Vera Punch RM6.90
-It looks like a plain cup of water with ice in it right??? Yeah. Was pretty shocked too. But it tasted quite delicious. Small pieces of aloe vera at the bottom of the cup. A refreshing drink worth trying too!

Spicy Udon Soup RM16.90-ala; RM18.90-set
-We ordered this during our 2nd visit. The soup was not as spicy as the kimchi side dish. The udon noodles were sooooo yummy and chewy! But it was so little :( There were seafood in it too; 2 big prawns, clams and squid (if i'm not mistaken). I think the dish tasted pretty good and I could actually eat some more!!! 

Grilled Fish Ball RM7.90
-DO NOT ORDER THIS. Not worth ordering/trying at all. Nothing special. The fish ball was served cold!!! It tasted like--it has been sitting in the kitchen for several hours! eeekkkk nothing special about the sauce or anything. #disappointed 

Dol Sot Bibimbap Beef/Chicken
Beef: RM17.90-ala; RM19.90-set
Chicken: RM16.90; RM18.90
-This dish was pretty okay to me. Others might love it for its various type of vegetables served on top of the bed of rice. I wasn't a fan of it but it was pretty good to other people.


Overall, 8/10.
We'll definitely come back because we love their sets! So worth it! If you're a K-pop fan, they have all the Music Videos or Korean award shows displayed on their TV's in the restaurant!
However, they can still improve more on serving their dishes hot to the consumers. 


Share these juicy reviews to others so that they won't regret the choices they make! :P
Till then, 
have a great week peeps!
