Not to be confused with Jeon Mi Do in Hospital Playlist and Thirty-Nine, this is Mido Korean BBQ in SS2, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.
In Petaling Jaya and in SS2, we are not short of Korean BBQs. Before After (a) Meal, go to Mido – a few doors back.
Getting to Mido Korean BBQ
Mido is directly opposite McDonald’s in SS2. Mido is easy to spot with it’s traditional Korean-looking front.
If you’re driving, parking is easy at the right timing. Find parking along Jalan SS2/64 and anywhere else in the commercial square of SS2.
Mido Korean BBQ
The interior has a traditional Korean house and restaurant feel. You’re not out of place, as there is a robot (on wheels) going around delivering your orders.
The seating arrangements are comfortable for 1 to 4 pax per table. If you’re eating in a big group, you’ve to split the group to 2 or more tables.
At the time of writing this, Mido had a few promotions running. Birthday babies get 1 free pajeon (Korean pancake).
We went on a Thursday and so happened it was ladies’ night. If there’s 1 lady in the group, you get 10% off from the bill. Then, if there’s 2 ladies in the group, you get 20% off from the bill. Then, if there’s 3 ladies in the group, you get 30% off from the bill. Finally, if there’s 4 ladies, you get 40% from the bill.
The promotion applied to a la carte dishes. We pounced on the beef, pork, and other dishes. You could either have the meat cooked for you or you can cook yourself at your own pace. We had the meats cooked for us.
We ate AUS Grade 5 Ribeye, Pork Belly, Pork Collar, Skirt Meat, Steam Egg, Corn Butter, Seafood Pancake, Kimchi Military Casserole, Mini Kimchi Soup, and Mido Rice Balls.

Kwong Wah is not hard to miss as it is just before the row of houses on Jalan 17/8 in Seksyen 17. The entrance, instead of facing houses, it faces Jalan 17/9 and SK Sri Damai field, widely. It has an open space in the front and an un-enclosed kitchen. You can actually see your asam laksa and cendol being prepared.
Parking is not hard to find. You can park along Jalan 17/9 or along any of the row of shops behind.
If you’re taking-away (tapau-ing), order inside and collect your orders outside here.
The interior is a fine blend of modernity and tradition. Even though the flooring is an antique and old pattern, yet it feels modern. The neon lights and lightings around the inside brings up the place from inside and add a touch to it.
Kwong Wah Ais Kacang
Bringing the taste of Melaka to PJ. Authentic gula melaka Ice Kacang using our secret family recipe handed down through generations since 1939.
Have a taste of their “must eat” and “our signature” food. Start with sour – Asam Laksa. End with sweet – Cendol. Both are filling together or on their own, separately.
Also known as Shi Shi Do Ramen Bar (to me), is in the Gasket Alley. The Gasket Alley is not hard to miss, as it is directly opposite Jaya 1 shopping mall and behind Columbia Asia Hospital – Petaling Jaya.
The Gasket Alley is a small warehouse with restaurants, dessert outlets, an IT store, and Harley-Davidson of Petaling Jaya. Head right to the end where you’ll find the authentic Japanese Tonkotsu Ramen in Section 13, Petaling Jaya.
If you’re not Grabbing to the restaurant, within the compound, there is a short row of visitor’s parking. Alternatively, you can park at Jaya 1 or the office complexes down the road, and walk up to the Gasket Alley.
During lunch hours or rush hours, there can be long queues outside the restaurant. So it’ll be best to go early and time yourself beforehand.
Inside the Ramen Bar
Instead of going to Japan, Japan is brought to you. And you’re transported back into time inside the ramen bar.
There is a ground and mezzanine level. On the ground floor, it feels like you’re eating in the streets of Japan in the old days of history’s past. You’re surrounded by “shophouses” and an old street lamp post in the middle.

Last weekend was a special occasion for the family to celebrate. Like most special occasions, the challenge was finding the venue.
Hence, I looked up the Entertainer app and found a casual dining place that served German and Western food. It was none other than Bavarian Bierhaus – The Curve.
Bavarian Bierhaus serves Mediterranean and German Food with a European feel. They serve Mediterranean and German food specialising in Pork delicacies.
Their concept is “ALWAYS THINK FOOD”. They also serve fresh homemade pasta and mouth pleasuring cold cuts. They have a wide wine list and cheese selection, with its casual atmosphere giving emphasis on good BEERS and big hearty meals.
The German Weiss-Biers is the most popular among many varieties of local and foreign beers the restaurant carries. The Bavarian Bierhaus offers the biggest selection of Paulaner Family Beers in Kuala Lumpur. The Weissbeer goes very well with their house specialities such as the German Bratwurst Sausages, Roasted Pork Knuckles and Barbequed Pork Ribs that happens to be their customers’ favoured dishes.
Many locals have been introduced to the Bavarian Bierhaus where they dine in with their family & friends savouring the foreign delicacies, the ‘’Malaysian Way’’
Bavarian Bierhaus – Lot G66 – is located on the ground floor at the Western Courtyard of The Curve.
To get to the restaurant, you can park in B1 or B2, and then take the escalator up to the ground floor. Then walk towards The Street and then turn right in the middle. The restaurant is located quietly in the Western Courtyard. Alternatively, you can drop off at the Western Courtyard entrance and the restaurant is immediately on your left.
In addition to at The Curve, there are also other Bavarian Bierhaus in Malaysia: Kuala Lumpur and Sunway Geo Avenue.
Menu
Below are teasers of Bavarian Bierhaus’ menu.
Alternatively, you can also browse their menu on Zomato.
You can also order and dine-in at the comfort of your own home. They do orders and deliveries with foodpanda.
Entertainer
The Entertainer App offered me to order a main course 1-for-1. I can order 2 main courses at the expense of 1. The second meal is “free” because it is paid by the first meal. Of the 2 meals, the higher priced meal will be billed.
At each restaurant, I’m given a maximum of 3 main courses to use. The 3 main courses can then feed at least 6 people.
I’m not going to keep all that moneysaving to myself. Let’s share and explore the Entertainer together, click here.
Entertainer and Menu
Bavarian Bierhaus was quite generous with the selection of main courses. We could not only choose the main course from a limited selection of main courses but also the snacks, pizzas, and pastas too!
As we were a small family dining, we used 2 main course offers which gave us 4 meals. From the snacks section, we ordered the Geroestate Knodel which is an addictive fry-up of chopped roasted bread dumplings with scrambled eggs, bacon and onions.
From the pizza section, we chose the Pizza Hawaiian. Pizza Hawaiian is a thin crust pizza with tomato sauce, grilled pineapple, bacon, chicken, and mozzarella cheese. The pizza was cut into 8 slices.
From the main course section, we ordered the Huhna Schnitzel with salad and potatoes salad, and Swiss Schnitzel with salad and pan fried potatoes. Each plate was served with 3 pork loins.
Huhna Schnitzel is freshly crumbled pork loin pan fried to golden. Swiss Schnitzel is pork loin freshly crumbled and pan fried, topped with ham and melted cheese. All schnitzels are served with garden salad and choice of pan fried potatoes, potato salad, or French fries.
