♥ Rice burger at Namoo On The Park, Publika, Kuala Lumpur

Namoo On The Park is the first Korean dessert cafe and bistro in Malaysia. I'm not a person who fancy about Korean foods, but then Namoo On The Park did caught my attention. Guess what's the dish that drives us to Namoo? 


Namoo means “tree” in Korean. Hence, most of the decoration items in Namoo are made of wood and brown is the main color, which then give people a comfortable and natural feeling. 

Location/ Address: Publika, Level G3, Lot 4A, Solaris Dutamas No.1, Jalan Dutamas 1, 50480 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.










In addition to Korean specialty desserts (both warm and cold desserts), Namoo also serves some Korean main dishes (from rice and noodles to burgers). For a complete list of foods serve in Namoo, kindly refer to the two photos of menu below.






The eating utensils for the main dish and desserts. Note: There is a hook under the table to hang your bag.




Back to the foods, rice burger is the reason why we are here. Namoo serves only three type of rice burgers: Bibi rice Burger, beef rice burger and shrimp rice burger. We ordered the chef recommended Bibi Rice Burger (Grilled chicken breast and mixed vegetables with sesame Bibi sauce, served on a grilled rice bun and fried egg) which costs RM 19.90.



The rice buns are sticky, firm and dense. The texture of the rice bun is similar to our local sticky rice in bamboo. Not sure what rice they are using to make the rice bun, but it contains sesame seeds and seaweeds which add extra flavours. This rice burger is good and irresistible. Not to forget to mention, the Bibi sauce gives you an overall sweet, sour and spicy mix of sensation.



Besides rice burger, we decided to order a cold dessert since Namoo is a Korean dessert cafe. Final decision goes to the chef recommended cold dessert with a bombastic name, The King's Bing Soo (RM 12.90). Bing Soo or Bingsu means shaved ice in Korean. It is one of the popular summer dessert in Korea. 


The King's Bing Soo is a green tea shaved ice with rice cakes, red beans, mix fruits (kiwi, strawberries and banana) and ice-cream sprinkled with multi-grain powder. A perfect combination because a person like me who hate red beans also can't resist this. The fruits are fresh. Thumbs up! Both the rice burger and shaved ice really make my day.


I would definitely return for other rice burgers and desserts. Glad that we found Namoo and the foods here look interesting to me. Last but not least, a photo of me with a wall inside Namoo. Nice quote on the wall "You can never make the same mistake twice because the second time you make it, it's not a mistake, it's a choice". 


Can't wait for the next return. Namoo!
