I initially thought that I could easily get something better at this price but for the price, this bowl of sundubu was chock full of ingredients - from tofu, to enoki, and to lots of seafood like clams, mussels, and prawns. This was more soup than stew, and I thought that it wasn’t really spicy or tangy, and hence at some moments even a bit bland. But it does the job of being a bowl of nice, warm, comforting soup, though I’m not sure if I would come back for sundubu again specially because I like mine more with that spicy, gochugaru kick.
That being said, who doesn’t love a restaurant with nett prices and no GST?

Generous amount of tuna, pickles, carrots and radish rolled into a classic kimbap you’d so expect. Sure it doesn’t beat the prices you get in a Korean convenience store, but this was nice and comforting, and also so filling!! This roll was served at room temperature, though I prefer my kimbap on the warmer side.

This was so worth it! A generous portion of tofu on top of seafood - clams, prawns and mussels in an appetising broth, which was sweet, tangy, and just spicy enough. Top it off with a bubbling egg and you’ll be so satisfied with the warmth and flavour this bowl of soup offers. Really worth it for the price and would come back here just to satiate my soupy subdubu cravings.

A simple plate of beef bulgogi that was juicy and sweet. Nothing mind blowing but a sizable portion!

Fluffy steam egg served piping hot. It was lightly scrambled on the inside as well, giving that flowy inner texture. Not much to the flavour other than a very light savoury taste. Nonetheless, if egg is your staple for every meal this is wonderful to have with rice.

Army stew with thin slices of beef, without the beef this would’ve cost $45 but I need my meat😀 When I patronised wonderful bap sang previously, the staff told us that the army stew was sold out which means it’s probably good?? Fast forward to a weekend before the peak dinner crowd, I managed to get a seat easily as well as order the army stew, which was honestly very comforting and delicious on a rainy day. Fit for 2 pax, the army stew was full of ingredients - kimchi, rice cakes, sausages, luncheon meat, bacon, ham, baked beans, and ramyeon, I was stuffed after the meal. The army stew had a good amount of spice in it, and a very appetising tang to it as well. That being said, I personally thought it was more on the pricier side.

Wanted to try their army stew but it was sold out early. Went around peak hour and there was quite a queue outside the shop. Pretty decent spicy soft bean curd stew. A good amount of spiciness, but I thought it was lacking a bit in flavour, perhaps because I went for the dumpling option. One can only hope that the seafood option would’ve made it slightly more flavourful!

A bowl of cold noodles with lots of vegetables — not just kimchi but your cut vegetables you’d usually find in a bibimbap. I thought this was quite interesting, especially with how the texture of the soba worked out well with the crunchiness of the vegetables. The kimchi also helped to give a gentle, tangy flavour to it all. I can only imagine how much better it’d be with a fried egg with runny yolk, instead of just a boring hard boiled egg.

Hearty and comforting meal located along Orchard Road, but come at non-peak hours if you want to avoid the crowd and secure a table. The beef seafood soup was decently enjoyable, though I thought it could do with slightly more flavour and spice, as well as a thicker consistency. It felt a bit too watery for me after a while.

Actually an affordable option for pretty good Korean fried chicken. The honey, soy, and garlic balance was done right, and the sauce was doused nicely over chicken wings which were fried to hot and crispy.

Kimchi soup was a comforting choice on a rainy day. It had a good kimchi flavour with the slight sourish tinge, and a generous amount of beancurd. Would have definitely appreciated a spicy option for that added kick.

While admittedly that this might be a personal preference, but the combination of bulgogi and fries was so unideal because it just made the fries so soggy. The spicy bulgogi while just decent, I still think its fair to best believe that both elements are just better off on their own.
