Hyang To Gol Korean Restaurant (Raffles City)

One of the only Korean restaurants that I know of in City Hall (the other being Ahjumma’s at Funan), so this place is frequented whenever my friends and I are in the vicinity and have cravings for Korean. This was a very hearty and comforting bowl of spicy seafood soup, the amount of ingredients were reasonable with a generous serving of tofu. The standard here was pretty good until it dropped during the period of COVID restrictions though it seems to have come back up again. Side dishes were alright, I’ve had better!

The bulgogi beef was tasty and the sides kimchi and other dishes went well with rice. The side servings was a little small. The staff service was great and provided with more sauce for the beef bulgogi and provided many assistance.

Got the 2 person set at 58++, that comes with a stew, a BBQ hotplate and an appetiser (which I got the seafood pancake). The amount of food is definitely alot, and more than enough for 2 person. We got the kimchi stew which was good, and the seafood pancake, although thicker than usual, is still crispy on its sides. What stole the show was the marinated pork belly, as it was so darn flavourful and tender. Paired with the lettuce wrap, kimchi and ssamjang, it was really satisfying. In fact one of the best BBQ meats I've had!

Super hearty and delicious Korean food in the heart of the city. Relatively affordable and yummy! Great lunch sets too.

The Bibimbap was nice and filling. The side dishes were delicious and we asked for multiple refills of the Anchovies and kimchi until one lady told us only one refill per set which was quite surprising to me as the norm in Korean restaurants is free flow banchan. Had to pay $1 for barley tea as well. Set lunches available daily at $12.90++.

Refreshing chilled drinks to go with the savoury food.
Sweet rice: Sikhye.
Lime juice in mini jug.
