extrarice3 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I had my first try on a Korean restaurant last week in Tagaytay and we had Samgyeopsal and a beef stew with glass noodles (i forgot the name). Our order of Samgyeopsal came with a set of various appetizers, along with kimchi of course, soup on a hot plate, sticky rice, fresh leaf vegetables, and pork belly which is cooked in front. To eat it, you basically get a piece of lettuce and put here the pork, rice, kimchi or any spices that you want, roll it and stuff it whole in your mouth. Its great to be gobbled up with Chum Churum Soju. Mind you, Kimchi smells of a day old underwear and one has to develop a taste for it. It is pickled or fermented vegetable mostly cabbage and tastes spicy and sour. Samgyeopsal and the Beek Stew costs P350 each while the Chum Churum Soju costs P200. ...Please feel free to post some suggestions on where to eat, and what to try next... Quote Link to comment
munchkins and donuts Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 For the past three years, my life has revolved around Koreans so I guess I'm an authority here... everybody already knows kimchi so let's go to something else... chapche... the Korean version of pansit soon doo boo chige... Korean BBQ is good if you go for the sweet tangy taste kalbi... kimbap for snacks... Quote Link to comment

vanillaLatte Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 i've had the best korean beef stew in a restaurant in seoul but the name of the dish and place didn't have any english translation. the shredded beef is served like shabu-shabu (a table with a stove), and with side dishes like kimchi, lettuce leaves and steamed rice. anyone knows what this is called and if this is available here? thanks. will look up photo from my file.

Shax Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 So where's the best place to eat some Korean food here in metro manila? Quote Link to comment
ForeverSummer Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) Try Korea Garden on Jupiter in Makati. Nothing super spectacular (but quite good), but they have this set meal (about 1 grand) good for, say, 2-3 pax (think lauriat). Set includes Korean BBQ, beef stew, kimchi, gyoza, and lots of other stuff (I don't know what they're called). Edited December 1, 2009 by ForeverSummer Quote Link to comment

aiden1130 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 In QC, there are a couple of korean restaurants along Kalayaan Ave. Quote Link to comment
starslayer13 Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Inside BF Paranaque there are several Korean restaurants. Most of my clients prefer Blooming Garden (which has good samgyeopsal) which is located @ Aguirre Avenue. One of my new clients, however, informed me of another Korean place which is popular among BF Korean residents. She said it is somewhere @ Presidents Avenue between BF Tahanan Village and Caltex station. Please scout this place and make a detailed report! I don't know the name, it was a long Korean name that my mind didn't absorb. Quote Link to comment
asmodeus Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 In QC, there are a couple of korean restaurants along Kalayaan Ave. I did see those korean restaurants as I passed by the Kalayaan avenue area (just pass trellis coming from the Circle) Any FR if these establishments are good ???? are they being patronized by korean nationals ??
