It’s no secret that Filipinos love all things Korean. A quick glance around social media feeds will confirm that Korean culture – from K-Pop music, Korea-novelas , Korean skin care and makeup, and most especially, Korean food – has pervaded the tastes of trendy Manila millennials.

Accordingly, our local restaurant scene has experienced a dynamic wave of Korean Barbeque (or KBBQ as it’s called) restaurants, where diners can grill their choice of meats right at the table and pair them with tasty traditional Korean side dishes. Whether it be a big KBBQ restaurant chain in the middle of the metro, or a small family-owned establishment hidden on a random side street, there is no lack of options when it comes to getting your KBBQ fix. What appears to be lacking, however, is that perfect balance between quality and price; ambiance and accessibility. More often that not, diners are compelled to make an unwilling tradeoff: high quality meat and world-class service comes at a high price, while the inverse is sadly true as well.
