Korean food is my comfort food!

Was recommended by a friend to check out this place: Hyang-to-gol Korean Restaurant at Raffles City basement!

Food items we got:
-Marinated BBQ Pork Set ($15.50++)
-Skewer Fishcake Odeng Soup ($14++)
-Soybean Paste Stew with Seafood ($18.50++)
-Seafood Pancake ($20++)

The food were all served piping hot! The seafood pancake had clams and prawns in it! Was pleasantly surprised by the presence of clams, as typically korean restaurant use prawns with squid insted? The soybean paste stew was actually quite spicy, though it was not mentioned in the description that it will be spicy (there is another soup option that is spicy beancurd soup with seafood for $18++). BBQ meat portions were huge, however I would have preferred if they have spicy bbq pork option too!

Didn’t expect to fall in love with their Kalguksu (korean knife cut noodles) 🍜 even though not exactly knife cut noodles but still slurpy good and addictive savory soup base with grilled pork belly!👍

🔥Triple Meat Combo (550g Pork) for $59++ is super worth it as you get BABY BACK RIBS, DUROC PORK BELLY, PORK COLLAR + CHOICE OF JJGAE + FREE FLOW BANCHAN + VEGE + SEAWEED RICE✨

I highly recommend getting their other menu items too, like Spicy Cheesy Chicken Dakgalbi💯 that also comes with some 🔥fire🔥 to get them melty cheese🤪

It was so crispy that when you cut it, it came with sound effects. 🤣. Yet not oily or too salty. Totally yums. Big portion, 3 could share

Tender beef, that contrary to reviews is not too fatty. I thought the portion was perfectly sized. They give you tea to pour in to the rice crispies

I believe the ban chan was free flow - but it was not topped up though. Quite meh and unremarkable. The omelette was dry. The kimchi was lukewarm and was rather bland. The marinated fishcakes, cucumbers and potato was nothing to shout about. But it’s complimentary so can’t really complain.

The cold noodles was refreshing, though it is a very carb-heavy main. It was only topped with a quarter of a hard boiled egg and less than 10 slices (or should I say slivers) of pear, as well as shredded cucumber. It was pleasantly acidic and cold but it does get boring after a while. You may want to order another side along with this - perhaps the bongsam or mandu.

Bibim Nanymyun (S$17.50++)
Korean cold noodles, served with sliced beef, pickled radish, and spicy sauce.
The disappointment was the radish kimchi which tasted quite bitter.
Help yourself to the water and yuzu drink at the counter.

Last but certainly not least, the Hotteok ($18) was a sweet finale. Filled with cinnamon and brown sugar, their rendition of the popular street snack tasted pretty refine to me as the warm, pan-fried rice flour pancake was not too greasy or cloying. It was also deliciously chewy. The burnt honey ice cream, ugh, was good with the caramelised flavours and the mixed nuts was truly the icing on the cake as the crunchy texture as well as the fragrant nuttiness was so complementary.

As for our choice of carb, we went for the Sot Bibimbap ($32) which would feed 2 hearty eaters comfortably in my opinion. Presented in a traditional cast iron pot before the chef mixed and portioned out for us, the Korean short-grain rice was topped with seasonal ingredients that included a succulent pork patty and assorted fresh-tasting veggies like crunchy beansprouts, sliced mushrooms, as well as shredded carrots. Tossed with their house-made XO sauce, the yummy bowl of rice was sweet, savoury and mildly spicy.

Another starter you have to try is their KFC (Korean Fried Cauliflower) ($26). Deep-fried cauliflower and rice cakes evenly coated in a house-made yangnyeom sauce. The superbly battered cauliflower was so good, doesn’t really taste like the vegetable and was so light, crisp as well as moreish. I particularly enjoyed the sweet-spicy-tangy flavours of the glossy gochujang-based sauce.
