Valentine's Day at Impressoul Gastrology

This is my first Valentine's Day with my husband! There were too many work events coming the next two weeks. Finally I just told him to have Valentine's Day lunch on 12 Feb 2017 instead of the real day since I have a monthly meeting the next day which needs preparation.

He decided to go to Impressoul Gastrology, a newly opened bar-bistro-restaurant that serves Korean-Japanese fusion food. The chefs are also Koreans!

As you enter the restaurant, from afar, lo and behold, be amazed by the awesome light decoration at the sides which changes colours to pink, green and yellow etc.

The owners must have been very meticulous as all the furniture are custom-made from the chairs with cow skin seats to the cutlery imported from Korea, I guess! There are also two private rooms, one upstairs for a bigger crowd and one at the ground floor with a big gigantic round table.

The set meals are more special than the ala carte ones, something very different from other restaurants. So here is what we have tried:

Bulgogi Bento Lunch Set (RM 32)

The bulgogi beef is served in very unique method ie on a small frying pan.

I also like the healthy salad and the fruits of kiwi and strawberry.

The chawanmushi even came with big bobbly fish roe. The appetizers like seaweed and and also tamago were also tasty.

There is additional cost of RM 2 for add on brown rice tea instead of what I thought to be add-on brown rice for the set!

Kaba-yaki Unagi Don (RM 31.13)

I have been having craving for unagi so we ordered this but I was a bit disappointed as the unagi was river eel instead of the normal eel. But the rice was special with some tiny-choped capsicum too.

Red Dragon Mocktail (RM 14.15)

This is dragonfruit beetroot juice.

There is special stairway that looks so secretive and leads to a separate cool-looking outta space hangout area that has TV and live sports shows too.
