Mabeob KBBQ Review : Cheap Samgyeopsal at P299 PROMO PRICE

by - 26 June

I'm not the biggest fan of Korean barbeque or Samgyeopsal, but I wouldn't say no to a P299 KBBQ.

If you're a local of Cainta or Rizal, there's a plethora of hole-in-the-walls, mom & pop restaurants, and cafes. K-bbq places are also much more accessible than before when they first came to the scene. Unlimited pork, chicken, and sides (banchan) for less than P399? It's a bit questionable, but I'll try anything once.

This small unassuming kbbq place is located inside a subdivision, directly in front of SM East Ortigas. As this is a small place, there's no parking, unfortunately.  The nearest would be at SM already. Unless you know someone who lives near where you can park. Now, we did get the promo price of P299 instead of the standard price of P399, but still, not bad. Especially since the quality, marinade, and thinness of the meats were pretty good.

Tip: Try the kimchi and cucumber side salad (oi muchim)

The place was clean. The offerings were neatly arranged, and the tables and chairs were adequately spaced. The veggies looked and tasted fresh, and most importantly the meats were not super fatty, nor did they smell off.

No flies anywhere and the place was air-conditioned. Great right?

BUT...

There weren't any exhaust fans for the smoke and if there were, they didn't turn it on. So you will be completely and I mean it, be completely soaked with the smell of smoked meat. From your hair to your clothes. Eau de pork anyone?

For P299, I have no other complaints other than the lack of exhaust. If you're willing to smell like smoke and meat for the rest of the day, I recommend you check this out if you're in the area.
