Overall Rating:
Am a ardent fan of this Korean Food since my schooling days. Last time, this Korean Stall is located at the now defunct Orchard Point Shopping Centre. I have also heard rumours that they may move to another location as Le Meridian will be closing off this food court,anyone can confirm this?
The popularity of this Korean Food stall are probably due to the freshness of the ingredients / generous portion ( compare the portion they serve here to other nearby Korean Food Stalls and you will know what I mean) / authentic selection of Korean food on its menu ( like the potato pancakes) and of course the motherly Korean Owner.......
My personal favourite is the bbq pork set whereby they cooked their tender sliced pork ( with bits of fat) in their chili mixture. The end product is not oily ( the owners claims they cooked their meat with water) and you definitely feel less sinful as you down your spicy grilled pork in the chewy bowl of rice. Sliced cabbages will be placed underneath the pork but do not mistaken the cabbages for garnishes because the cabbage have absorbed the juices from the cooked meat and tastes heavenly!
Tip: If you are ordering the bbq sets, be wary of the spluttering and sizzling of your hotplates as you bring your food back to seat.

The good thing about working in a foreign company is you get to meet lots of people from different walks of life from different nationalities, discovering different cultures and traditions. In my company, I have worked with Americans, Dutch, Swiss, Japanese, Korean, Malaysians, Indians, Filipinos and Chinese to name a few. And it was one day that my Korean colleague introduced me to Korean food at this place. She said she find the standard of food served here similar, if not better, than most of the other Korean restaurant she has been to so far - for a fraction of the price.
Taking her word for it, we ventured to Le Meridien for one of our lunches. Lunch was Spicy Beef Soup with rice plus a choice of condiment between Kimchi, Cucumber, or Anchovies.
Serving was generous with the bowl filled to the brim with Beef, Tofu and stalks of Spring Onions (It helps that I love eating spring onions!). The soup with a dash of Sesame Seeds was served piping hot and although MSG laced, the hint of spiciness make the soup truly enjoyable to taste.
The beef slices could have been bigger but for a meal costing less than $10, I have no complains against the serving and standard of the food.
