We grabbed a Duroc pork set for dinner at Go! K-BBQ tonight. It featured not just samgyeopsal belly and the hangjeongsal jowl that we liked so much from last time, but also that thick cut of pork neck in the foreground above.

Amoy Street has a long history in Singapore but among young Singaporeans, it’s more well-known as THE place for good quality Korean barbecue...
Food quality is not too bad at Wang Dae Bak Pocha, though service quality needs to be stepped up.
Perfect for corporate parties, events and even family gatherings and birthdays!
If you are heading after work, there are other modern Korean dishes including Kimchi Fried Rice ($15, With Cheese $18), Bulgogi Kimchi Cheese Fries ($12), which can be paired with Honey Ice Cream Beer ($12).
Their mainstay is fried chicken with various flavours.
The best and most creative dish we had, soy and lemon kkanpungki ($22/$30, pictured above), consists of boneless fried chicken in soy and lemon sauce, topped with shredded leek and dried chilli.
A pretty solid bowl of YukGaeJang - spicy Beef soup. Plenty of meat around a huge bone I could barely finish.
Reasonably priced lunch options and with the best of both worlds, I am a fan! Do look out for snooty service though, the servers are not at their happiest nor cheeriest at all times.
While their bbq items are excellent, they are priced way too high.
Highly recommended!
Don Dae Bak Korean BBQ along Kreta Ayer Road offers a Korean BBQ buffet with unlimited meats, sides and steamed eggs at only S$27.90++/pax on weekdays.
If you are a seafood lover, Daejim should suit your palate for Korean BBQ. For me, the banchan and side dishes standout more in terms of flavour as compared to the BBQ meats.
On the whole, K-Tower is a good option in CBD if you are thinking of a Korean restaurant for a group gathering. The fresh seafood is the highlight, while you can also satisfy your Korean food cravings at the same time.
The two-story restaurant consists of 126 seating capacity which includes a spacious VIP room that is perfect for corporate events and gatherings.
If steamboat is not quite your thing, there are still other dishes that makes the trip down to K-tower worth while!
The Korean food scene in Singapore has definitely evolved from mere Korean barbecue cuisine in the past few years. Think Meta, Naeum, Anju and now we also have Onmi, a newly opened contemporary Korean restaurant along Amoy Street.
The Place One of the most exciting new openings in the past few weeks is Tambi, a casual Southern Indian-Korean restaurant along Amoy Street. One reason why Tambi is one restaurant on my radar amon…
There are plenty of Korean BBQ restaurants in Singapore. If you don’t believe me, just walk down Tanjong Pagar Road where they are all over the place! It’s quite a spectacle seeing all the long queues of young people waiting patiently for a table at the various restaurants. I wish I had the luxury of time to do that, even if I don’t particularly fancy queuing up for food.
The lamb is dry-rubbed with Szechuan-style spices that reminded us of good ol’ Ma La Xiang Guo. The gaminess of the lamb is rid completely as the spices complement the juicy meat outstandingly well.
It is a great place for you to pop by for after-work drinks and a bite.
Overall, it was nice experiencing the vintage Korean frozen pork BBQ. The combination of the pork belly, eaten with kimchi and watercress brings out a different flavour to the dish.
