Seafood sundubu jjigae (+$3 with set; alacarte $18.90) had rich seafood aroma and kick of spice, and generous assortment of fresh seafood. One of the better ones around

Famed for their 3-step hotstone grilling: ๐˜š๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ณ, ๐˜›๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ, ๐˜๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ฎ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆฬ. Exciting to get front row seats to the process ๐Ÿ”ฅ and enjoyed the delicious seared, succulent, and juicy meats.

Would recommend big groups to share the Triple-meat combo ($65) including pork, chicken, and beef, a choice of soup, and umami seaweed rice. Seafood sundubu jjigae (+$3 with set; alacarte $18.90) had rich seafood aroma and kick of spice, and generous assortment of fresh seafood.

Unagi was quite small in portion. Mentai tamago combi is ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป. Snow crab pasta taste like chilli crab sauce w lots of meat

I am probably not the only one confused but there is actually not one but two Korean restaurants by the name of "Myung Ga" in the Bukit Timah area. I usually frequent Myung Ga II at Bukit Timah Plaza but it was closed the night I visited so I decided to check out Myung Ga III at Beauty World instead.

According to the wait staff, Myung Ga II and III are separate restaurants whose owners are friends. They aren't related but have similar (if not the same) menu.

The good is rather similar. The tonkatsu is huuuuuuge as with all Korean style tonkatsus with a nice sweet sauce. I ordered a takeaway which was probably why the pork cutlet came in pieces instead of one huge slab. The meat was well marinated and the crust shattering crisp. I do prefer Myung Ga II's version because it was a little more tender and juicy but it might just be because I had their tonkatsu fresh instead of sitting in a box for the 45 minutes drive home.

I do want to know though... Is there a Myung Ga I?!?

Unusual in that most meats are pork and not beef. Excellent BBQ , although other dishes are good too. Outstanding service. Tables are a bit small for parties of 6.

Beef lovers, like myself, would definitely enjoy their Beef Short Rib ($32.80) sotbap. Tender and so well-marinated, the Australia Beef Short Rib tasted premium, especially with my choice of fluffy five-grain rice. Said to be flavoured with Korean pear and soy sauce (sweet and savoury), the protein was grilled perfectly will some charred edges to the succulent cut. Topped with a beautiful luscious egg yolk, the pot also contained roasted sesame seeds, chopped spring onions, gingko nuts and plenty of mushrooms. So good even without the accompanying sauce.

Exceeding my expectations, Sagyeโ€™s Lunch menu was great (psst, much better than the previous one I reviewed, in my opinion). Available only between 11.30am to 3pm (their last order at 2.30pm), the Korean Pot Rice sets were of good value, each coming with a soup of the day (on the day we had a mildly spicy kimchi tofu soup)ย and side dishes.

The Pork ($21.80) sotbap was well-executed and had a chockful of ingredients. With a little more charred flavour, the grilled Pork collar and Pork rib was like a classic done right - deliciously textured with a slightly fatty chew. Nicely flavoured, the toothsome pork was wonderfully balanced with the bed of Japanese rice with cubes of sweet potatoes and ginkgo nuts. The addition of deeply earthy Korean bracken (gosari) was a fantastic touch too. A hearty, comforting choice.

๐Ÿ’กA tip is to join their virtual queue by scanning the QR code at 11.15am to clinch the first seating~

iโ€™m a convert. my photo may be lacklustre but this dish is not. Itโ€™s INCREDIBLE.

not a huge cold noodle fan because i always feel noodles should be hot then itโ€™ll be shiokโ€ฆ. but today the weather really damn hot so i decided to go for it. iโ€™m a convert. iโ€™m ordering cold noodles every time i go to a korean place from now on.

the soup is so good, i couldnโ€™t believe how refreshing it was! there were fresh pear slices in addition to the vinegar, chilli seeds, and cucumber slices to provide a zesty, complex profile to it. masterfully done! kudos to the chef!

Incredible seafood pancakeโ€ฆ iโ€™ve eaten quite a few from different korean places but this takes the cake. we ordered one to share in addition to our mains and it was so good!

crisp and not too oily. the thickness of the pancake was JUST RIGHT. some places overdo it and itโ€™s too thick and gelat, some places are too thin and not worth the money, but this one really hit the spot. seafood was fresh and provided a depth to the pancakes.

recommend dipping it into the sauce! will definitely come back again

rose tteokbokki - was one of the more affordable and filling options here. loved the chewy tteokbokki in the spicy sauce (with a tinge of rose flavour)
