OUR REVIEW ON MEOKJA CAFE MALAYSIA
I recently popped into Meokja Cafe at Seberang Jaya for a late lunch, eager to try halal-certified Korean flavors with a Malaysian twist—and I was genuinely impressed. The café has a cozy, minimalist vibe that feels relaxed yet inviting, perfect for casual meals. I started with their Cheese Tteokbokki (RM 32–37), where rich mozzarella blankets chewy rice cakes simmered in their secret sweet-spicy gochujang sauce. The contrast of gooey cheese and spicy heat was comforting and satisfying. I also couldn’t resist the Beef Bulgogi Kimbap (around RM 20–27), packed with savory minced bulgogi and fresh veggies—light on the palate but hearty enough to feel like a full meal.
Next, I tried the Dakgalbi Bibimbap (about RM 30–40), a vibrant bowl with spicy stir-fried chicken, assorted banchan, and a sunny-side-up egg that brought everything together. It was flavorful and well-balanced, with a nice kick that paired well with the cooling iced Plum Peach Ade (RM 13) and Honey Jujube Latte (RM 12)—both refreshing choices from their rotating monthly drink specials. The staff were friendly and happy to explain each dish and beverage; I appreciated how the portions were generous, often enough to share, though seating is limited and it does get busy around peak hours. Overall, Meokja struck me as a creative and approachable spot for halal Korean comfort food in a friendly, neighborhood café setting.
