Chir Chir

Raise your hand if you are Fried Chicken lover. Have you ever try Chir Chir?

Chir Chir is a famous fried chicken restaurant from Korea. This restaurant is also famous in Singapore. I believed it's because their tasty food and unique menu that they offer.

I give two thumbs up for their unique dish creation. It brings fried chicken into a different level. 

Curious? Let's start my review.

We tried Chir Chir Mi Chir. Chir Chir Mi Chir consists of oven-roasted Cajun fried chicken tenders with pasta, smothered in rich cream sauce and sprinkled with mozzarella cheese.

The pasta noodle is chewy and tasty. The Cajun fried chicken is tender, tasty and crispy. The cream sauce looks like a soup as they give a lot.

You may dip the fried chicken in a cream sauce and eat together with pasta. The combination between pasta, chicken, cream sauce and mozzarella cheese are fantastic. Totally unique dish to try.

This dish has very big portion. It can be eat for at least two people. So bring your friends along when you visit this restaurant.

Will I go there again? Yes.

Bibigo

Craving Korean foods while shopping at NEX Mall? You shall try Bibigo.
 
Bibigo offers healthy and delicious Korean dishes which from my personal view is “worth-to-wait for try”.
 
Went there alone during lunch, I ordered the Spicy Chicken Stew and Black Rice. Spicy Chicken Stew is their recommendation dish. Since the dish never comes with rice, I ordered black rice as well.
 
Beginning, I was quite upset with their service. I only ordered 1 dish and it took them more than 30 minutes to prepare. Even one of the waitress over there realized (maybe on that time my face was as black as the black rice I ordered) and took the initiative to check with me and hurriedly went back to the kitchen after that.
 
I can guarantee-chop that they missed out my order.  It’s a kind of funny coz there are not so many people at that time.
 
Finally, after around 40 minutes my dish came...
 
Spicy Chicken Stew is a nutritious dish cooked with locally grown whole chicken, plentiful vegetables in Kohot sauce.
 
This dish is surprisingly refreshingly delicious. The soup is very tasty and the combination tastes between chicken, potatoes (and other unknown secret ingredients) are awesome!!! One more thing that I need to mention here, the portion is generously enough for 2 ladies. But, ehem, I still prefer to have it alone =P

Black rice is also nice. It tastes better than the white rice.
 
I hope Bibigo management can improve their service and maintains their foods’ quality.
 
Will I go there again? If not in rush, I absolutely will go there again.

Spicy Chicken Stew S$15.00

Kraze Burgers

Looking for foods at Plaza Singapura? Maybe you might want to read this article for your reference. Btw, please note that this is only my personal opinion :)

Introduction:
Kraze Burgers is a Korean burger restaurant located at new extension of Plaza Singapura.

Over there, we ordered Semi-nude and Creamy Salmon Pasta for our dinner.

Please let me share with you my personal thought about their foods:
Semi-nude consists of 2 x beef patty, ham cheese, Swiss cheese, fresh garden salad, grilled sun ripened tomato, grilled onion, Kraze dressing (chili and teri sauce on the side, Italian and mango sauce on top of the salad), sunny side up (egg) on top. Beginning (from the overall looks), I thought this dishes was quite nice, but, soon-after-I-tried, I was regret with this options of mine. The beef patty is not either smooth, juicy or tender, it was more to dry and slightly hard.

Creamy Salmon Pasta is another disappoint. I pitied my sister for ordered that dish. Tried her dish and what can I said is nothing, coz the food is tasteless (no taste at all). The creamy sauce (more to creamy soup for me) was very bland and the salmon was dry.

Their service quality also need improvements. It took them quite long to serve the foods. Other customers beside my table also complained the same thing.

Will I go there again? Absolutely Not!

Semi-nude S$16.00

 

Creamy Salmon Pasta S$9.90++

Nolboo Hangari Galbi

Hello Guys!!! How is your weekend? I spent my last weekend in my hometown AGAIN (Yippie!!!)

Anyway, today let me share with you another Korean restaurant named Nolboo Hangari Galbi.

Over there, we ordered Gal-bi Tang and Bu-Chu Jeon.

Gal-bi Tang is a beef short ribs stew with cabbage. They serve this dish in a very hot condition (You can see from the below picture that the soup still boil in the bowl). 

Best to eat while it’s still hot and the beef also tender. For me, the taste is ok only.

Bu-Chu Jeon is Korean Leek Pancake. I thought this dish will be as nice as Kimchi Jeon that we tried on Man bok BBQ.

But after we tried, it was totally different. We are not really like it. This pancake contains too many vegetable.

They also cut the vegetable in the very big size, so you will feel like eating some bland vegetable instead of vegetable pancake.

Will I go there again? Absolutely No!

Gal-bi Tang S$17.90

 

Bu-Chu Jeon S$17.90

Man bok BBQ

Today want to share with you another authentic Korean restaurant which located Tanjong Pagar area. It called Man Bok BBQ.

Reached there, I was quite surprise with the restaurant’s ambience. The restaurant’s space is not that big, but it’s quite comfy and the BBQ smell is not that strong. 

I believed, there is one thing that will attract young girls or even ladies, all the waiter over there are Korean. They will help you in cutting and barbequing the BBQ meat on your table.

Anyway, over there we decided to order Set B (pork) and a la carte – Kimchi Jeon. Each of us also ordered a bowl of plain rice.

Set B (pork) is suitable for 2-3 people. This set contains of 5mm of sliced pork belly, 2mm of sliced pork belly, marinated pork short rib and marinated chicken.

The pork bellies are crispy and the marinated pork rib is tender. The marinated chicken is tasty and juicy.

I like Kimchi Jeon most. Kimchi Jeon is a spicy Kimchi pancake. It was my first encounter with Kimchi Jeon and I like it. It's very very nice and crispy.

They used charcoal to barbeque the meat. And you need to ON the vacuum to suck the BBQ smell away. Over there they also gave a 8 types of Korean dishes and they all are free top up.

If you want to try Man Bok BBQ, I suggest you to make a reservation first. If not, you can prepare to go back with empty stomach since there will be BIG CHANCE that there is no space for you. It happens to me when I went there last year okay, haitz = (

Kimchi Jeon S$17.00

Set B (Pork) for 2-3 person S$46.00

Todamgol

Did you know that Tanjong Pagar road is known as a ‘Little Korea’ of Singapore? It’s because of many Korea’s restaurants operates around this road. One of the special and nice Korean restaurants around there called Todamgol.

The first thing attracted us to eat over there was its unique design and their cool decorations. Love the atmosphere and the cosy lighting make you feels comfortable. Maybe when you see their price, you will get cold feet =P

Just bear in mind that over there, every one dish is more than enough for 3 persons.

We ordered: Kim Chi Jun Gol, Charcoal Yang-nyum BBQ and Sam Gyub Sal. Each of us ordered a plain of plain rice.

As a starter, they served 6 different types of side dishes. There is no additional charge for those side dishes. The best thing is you may top up those side dishes. Oh, how I love Korean restaurant (greedy mode)!!

The first dish (and the best as well) they served was Kim Chi Jun Gol. The soup was fantastic! It was hot, spicy and taste heavenly. For me, just this dish and a plain of rice is enough to make my day brighter. And I can easily say that this is one of the best kimchi I tried so far.  

Charcoal Yang-nyum BBQ is a marinated Chicken Charcoal BBQ. The chicken is tender and nice; the sauce is sweet.

Sam Gyub Sal is a pork belly. That dish comes with lettuce. The pork belly is tender and juicy. Just wrap the pork belly with the lettuce, and add their special sauce. I’m sure it will make a big smile on your face.

Overall, I was super satisfied having dinner at Todamgol.

It's really worth if you go with at least 3 persons.

Kim Chi Jun Gol S$30.00

 

Charcoal Yang-nyum BBQ S$28.00

 

Sam Gyub Sal S$18.00
