The basis of Korean cuisine is wholehearted care and efforts. Unlike some cuisine’s focus on speed in quick-frying to keep the flavours, Korean cuisine emphasizes heavily on the long hours of efforts for maturation and fermentation.

With the current wave of "Hanryu" (Korean wave), Korean cuisine has taken the role of ambassador to introduce Korea worldwide and the finesse of its taste and nutritional value have been proved globally as well.

    Went to Jang SHou Korean BBQ for lunch on Sat. We reached the restaurant at around 1:45pm and it was not very crowded. After we placed our order, they started to serve us a whole lot of side dishes. Felt like I was eating like those in 大长今. If they serve the side dishes in those very royal kind of plates, I would have felt that I am the Korean king :p

    The side dishes include the kimchi, and the side dishes are refillable. When our meat arrived, the staff cooked them for us. Service not bad!

    The meat were delicious! Though some parts were not marinated well, where it was too salty, but overall the meat were just so good! The soup was spicy, but I soon got used to them and I think they tasted very good!

    The bill adds up to about $170 for 4 adults. Very expensive! But at least the service and the delicious food made it worth the money.

      Good Service And Free Flow Of Kimchi

      The colleagues and I came here to celebrate for a birthday boy. I didn't really know what to expect from this Korean restaurant. Previously, I looked at the menu and was really put off by the price. The list of meats for the barbeque ranged from $22 to $28 and they didn't really look like huge portions. On top of that, there was a requirement that you needed to order at least 2 items from that menu if you wanted the barbeque. So that means you will probably part with at least $50 for two, and that's pretty exhorbitant for me. A colleague shared that a meal for two set her back by over $70.

      But once the food is served, I realize the price is actually rather reasonable. Apart from the main dishes, the side dishes (about 8 different items) were free flow. So for kimchi lovers, it's all you can eat!

      Some said that it felt like re-enacting 大长今 (Jewel In The Palace), but I can't be sure, because I never caught a single episode of the popular show.

      Most of the dishes had that characteristic zing of Korean cuisine. And one very memorable ingredient is the onion. Each of us were served a plate of onions. It tasted quite alright and I ate them all, only to be reminded hours later of its effects on the digestive system, but that really felt good.

      Service was pretty good here. The staff who attended to us provided very truthful recommendations where portions were concerned. For 9 of us, he recommended to just take 4 portions. There was also the option to have their chefs prepare the food for you instead of doing it yourself, and ending up with the smell of barbeque in your hair and clothes. So it's great for people who are hopeless at cooking.

      We also ordered their Kimchi Casserole which was a spicy thick soup with plenty of ingredients. Its full-bodied flavour was very pleasant, though not recommended for people who can't take spicy food.

      So I recommend this to people who love authentic Korean cuisine for its spread of side dishes. I also recommend this to people who prefer vegetables to meat. The warning for this place is really the taste of the side dishes, and particularly onions. So come prepared.
