If you listen closely, you can almost hear Malaysians sigh collectively as the nation prepares to take on Movement Control Order (MCO) once again. Between trying to keep an active lifestyle indoors, efficiently get work done and come up with creative ways to entertain the kids, staying at home can be pretty challenging.

On top of that, cooking can be stressful for some, especially those who do it on the daily. So, it’s time to take a break from the kitchen and turn to this list of halal Korean eateries in KL that offer delivery for a change.

P.S. If you're still up for cooking, then try these 10 easy Korean recipes that you should whip at home
