Seoul Garden @ Pantai Plaza, Kerinchi
Can you guess where we had dinner tonight?
The best thing about Seoul Garden is its accessibility, both in its price and location. Set just next to the Federal, it’s easily reachable by car and LRT – commuters can take RapidKL to Kerinchi This sadly means the restaurant’s view is limited to watching traffic on the highway.
The decor of the place is similarly unimpressive – the charitable will call it simple. That doesn’t matter, though, because the food makes up for it. Seoul Garden offers an all-you-can-eat steamboat/bbq buffet priced at RM33.88 for dinner and RM23.88 for lunch. Beef, chicken, lamb, seafood and so on are provided raw in a variety of sauces, which diners bring back to their tables then either boil or roast personally. My personal favorite was the spicy chicken, which was fairly easy to cook and well worth the effort. Leftovers are charged by weight, so try not to take more than you can chew!
Syrup and tea are available, as well as a perfunctory fruit and salads bar. In terms of dessert, I skipped the air batu kacang in favor of the suprisingly good vanilla ice cream. Your mileage may vary!
Seoul Garden is one of the few places I’ve eaten in Malaysia that actually offers senior citizen discounts. Hopefully I won’t need one anytime soon.

Hi!
I was just wondering, is the restaurant ‘halal’, as in, does it cater for the Malays?
Do they only have the all-you-can-eat buffet?
What do you mean by they charge leftovers by weight?
Kindly reply.
Thank you!
is SEOUL GARDEN certified HALAL ???
Excellent questions! I wish I’d paid more attention when actually eating there ^_^ Tell you what, I’ll call them tomorrow and ask them for you.
Having called, I can say that the Seoul Garden at Plaza Pantai professes to be halal. Whether they are or not is up to your definition of halal… I didn’t see any pork being served. Have fun!
