Woorinara Korean Restaurant (Lorong Kilat)

Got the boneless fried chicken with sweet sauce. Previously tried the same with spicy sauce, so the sweet was not as good as there was no kick from the spice and was more one-dimensional. Still enjoyed it too, as the skin was crispy and sauce was still flavourful. The jajangmyeon was too soggy and did not impress, which was surprising.

Visiting Woorinara on a rainy day, we ordered this as we thought it would be great comfort food. It certainly didn disappoint, as it was served piping hot! The soup comes with a bowl of rice, which you should mix with some tofu and soup for the best flavour!!

The soup is not very spicy (despite its colour) and in fact, we think there is a tinge of seafood flavour in the soup. Other than tofu, you can find quite a lot of shrimps in the dish, a generous serving of mushrooms, as well as a piece of half crab!

The dish is great for sharing and at $13++, it is really value-for-money given its serving size.

Came back here for the yum yum chicken with the sweet sauce! This is the small serving, where you get around 8 pieces of chicken for $18++! I think this is just right for sharing amongst three people and if you have more, you may want to get another serving of chicken.

Fried chicken was cooked well, as the insides were tender and legitly boneless, while the outside was really crispy even when coated in the sweet sauce! Would definitely come back for this everytime I visit Woorinara!

On a side note, while the place was quite empty on a Saturday afternoon, it is really crowded at dinnertime and it may be best to make a reservation first!

Came with a bowl of rice and was sizzling hot. Beef amount was generous and really soft! Soup was very sweet-tasting and delicious with lots of ingredients like tang hoon, enoki, carrots and the beef itself. Good for sharing. Soup remained hot till the end and was really satisfying.

We could choose from the sweet or spicy sauce and we got the spicy one which was indeed quite spicy. We needed a break after eating one piece. Sauce was generous and was tasty. Chicken was tender and not overfried with a very crispy skin. Skin was crispy even with the sauce. There were 9 pieces but we ate before we took the photo and it was quite generous as each piece was quite large. Ban chan was also delicious and there was 7 different ones which were all good!

While I normally get the normal seafood kimchi pancake, I decided to try the cheese version out of curiosity today! Cheese was really stretchy and it was nice that the cheese was layered only at the tip of each piece. This allows you to try the pancake both with and without the cheese. :)

The only issue is that there was a lot more kimchi than seafood, so we are not very sure if it is worth the $23++. But it shouldn't be an issue if you are sharing with friends. :)
