I was surprised that the South Koreans celebrated Christmas in a big way until I found out that about half the population belongs to the Christian faith. But that is not th subject of this post; rather it is about a Korean restaurant I went to in Petaling Jaya a week ago.

The delightful Korean wine (at Rm 35 a bottle; I subsequently checked out the price at a wine outlet which retails it for Rm 29 a bottle)

Quaint tiny cups for drinking the wine

We were captivated by the wine cups and requested for one from the Korean lady proprietor who smilingly obliged not only with one but half a dozen of them.
