Myung Ga II (Bukit Timah Plaza)

To satisfy our craving of dulgae kalguksu, we travelled all the way to Bukit Timah and probably attracted quite a few stares for the loud and heavy slurping of knife cut noodles in a warm steamy bowl of rich, creamy, nutty and flavourful broth.

We were probably the only ones who ordered this dish and to be honest, the rest of you are really missing out!

Can't decide between seafood or meats? Why not check out ossam bulgogi, a harmonious stir fried marriage of pork belly and squid.

I have tried several versions of this dish at various restaurants, and it tends to be rather hit and miss because its kinda hard to get the timing right for two different sorts of proteins when you are rushing an order out.

Myung Ga though nails theirs perfectly. Both the pork belly and squid are chewy, soft and tender. The hot spicy sauce can be a tad too spicy for some but I absolutely love it! Portions are generous as always!

A decent version, noodles that were a little bit soft were particularly good.

Recently they have added chili PADI and a lot of customers have complained about it. Unnecessarily spicy, hope they change it back soon

Otherwise the seafood is only average

I realise theres a base of peanut, but it's a very small part, mainly still the spicy sauce that dominates. Octopus was still the almost watery bouncy texture, which is similar to the mich guide place I had in Seoul. Good stuff again, having it a second time made me appreciate it more

The version here is absolutely delicious and dare I say, homely. It's not overly oily or heavy, just a slightly sour and spicy rice that goes so well w their excellent seaweed and fried egg. Makes for a lovely meal on its own

There's some crisp, the flavour is pretty light but the thin sauce is impressive as ever. Seafood pancake is probably slightly better at this place
