Soban K-Town Grill (SM North)

Because it's the new trend nowadays, we're very fond of eating samgyupsal. We also love it because we're too addicted to kdramas, kpop and everything about korea.

With this, we tried to eat at Soban K-Town Grill, located at SM North. This is obviously a korean restaurant.

It is located at the upper ground floor, main building at SM North.

First, the place is really cozy. It has the korean feels-ambiance because of kpop music that they played. It's very spacious and they can accomodate numerous of customers.

We tried their MEGA MEAT BBQ set that is good for 4 person. It's 1,200 g of premium meat; Fresh Beef Belly, Marinated Beef Belly, Fresh Pork Belly, Soy Garlic Pork Belly, Chili Ben Pork Belly and Fried Chicken.

The meal set includes unlimited side dishes, rice, and soup.

We super love their kimchi because it's not that spicy. Some of us wanted to eat samgyupsal with kimchi but it's too spicy. Soban's kimchi is perfect for those people who has low tolerance of spice level and still, they can enjoy their samgyupsal.

One thing about eating samgyupsal is that you want to eat it with fresh lettuce. And Soban reached our expectations. They serves fresh and clean lettuce.

Mouthwatering meat. Ugh, saranghaeyo, samgyupsal!

We also tried their shakes and iced tea which looks really good. The moment we saw it, we just wanted to take a sip until its last drop.

Last, one thing we noticed about this restaurant is, you can see that their crews are well-trained. They are approachable and very accommodating. Good thing that they also give some instruction on what to do. It's very good thing for those who are first time to eat samgyupsal. They won't stand beside your table for nothing because they are really taking care of the customers.

After eating a lot of meat, we really need something sweet and we are able to try their dessert. Dang! Gonna be frank, but this is delizioso! The taste of the banana and the graham powder is just too perfect.

Don't worry, Soban K-Town Grill has a lot of branches:

SM North
Eastwood Mall

Greenbelt 3

If they will ask me what things they need to improve, all I can say is that, just continue their great service and quality foods.

Saram Korean BBQ - Buffet (Quezon City)

Who would dare to say no to UNLIMITED? Well of course, we all love unlimited specially if it's foods!

We found SARAM KOREAN BBQ GRILL at 109 V. Luna Ext, Diliman, Quezon City. They offer unlimited foods and samgyupsal.

The place is cozy and clean. It's spacious and they can serve numerous customers. Not only the place but the ambiance is really comfortable.

We tried every single of their foods and put it on a plate so that we could taste it all. Freak, they are all good.

These are the foods in their mini buffet area that you can eat while waiting for your samgyupsal or barbecue to cook. (I forgot to take a picture of their tteokbokki).

They also offers side dishes. That's one of Korea's trademark. Foods will always be eat with side dish.

We personally love their kimchi and tongue namul. I can't even remember how many times I went back to buffet area to get this side dishes.

Chicken, beef or pork barbecue tastes really good with this sauce when you wrapped it in lettuce.

Since their meat is not that thick, it's easy to cook in a medium heat.

Advantage of their mini buffet is that, while waiting for your meat to cook, you can enjoy eating their unli dishes.

It's just so nice to see these meat strips in a wood plate.

Side dishes and sauce

We tried their chicken barbecue and it really tastes good with the sauce and lettuce.

For us, one of their restaurant's highlight is their tteokbokki. It really taste sweet and spicy. I got addicted because of it's mouthwatering taste. We all know that tteokbokki is really spicy but in here, it has a mild spice level.
