At this Gardens Mall outlet, large tables come with cosy seats while the space is ventilated well for a comfortable environment. Huddle over the grill with a group — either for family dinners or celebrations with your colleagues! Shinmapo is known for being the first to bring in Galmaegisal or Pork Skirt (from RM27), a sparsely available cut found between the belly and ribs. The premium Galmaegisal is juicy, turning out denser flavours than most parts. Order The Shimapo Ultimate Set D (RM128 for two to four pax), which includes this coveted pork skirt in addition to more pork, mixed grill and a warming pot of military stew. The trendy dining experience also comes with plenty of cheese-pull moments, courtesy of a kimchi egg crust with melting cheese. End the meal on an explosive note — the Volcano Fried Rice (RM33) mimics its namesake with a lava-like centre of oozy egg.
Avg price per person: RM40
