Nanta BBQ

Chose this restaurant to celebrate my cousin's birthday. Really homely and friendly atmosphere. Wanted to get the BBQ grills but they were abit too pricey so we settled for the Tteok-Galbi sets, both Beef ($44.90) and Pork ($38.90). These were 2 patties atop a bed of onions and sweet potatoes, served with a side of Mini Beef Doenjang Jigae and Mini Pork Kimchi Jigae respectively. The patties were thick and juicy and nicely-seasoned, but do dip it in the gochujang sauce for some variety of flavour. The Seafood Kimchi Pancake ($28) came in a huge portion and we really loved the crispiness. Decent portions of squid and prawns within too! Finally, finished off with the Makgeolli ($25) which came in a metal tub and a ladle which I think is how it is traditionally served, enough for maybe 7 or 8 servings. Overall, had a good time here and would return to splurge on their BBQ meat sets.

Had the char grilled black pork belly as part of the lunch set. Each lunch set came with a can drink and free flow of side dishes. Pork belly was juicy and delicious. Value for money

Had the Soya Bean Paste Beef Soup ($15.90) for lunch. Food was not bad and there sides include fish cake and potato which I really like it.

Went for the mild version cos the spicy version was really quite hot. But this one came with loads of ketchup mixed into the sauce. More like spicy tomato chicken. I would brave the heat and get the spicy version next time.

Enjoyed it during their lunch promotion (at least 15% discount) which is only available on weekdays excluding PH. Each meal comes with a free can drink and unlimited servings of Korean side dishes (banchan)! I’ve to say their side dishes were pretty legit and yummy too.

To be honest, I didn’t really have a lot of naengmyeons to compare with but I certainly enjoyed this. Do let me know if you have any recommendations for me to compare!

I could smell instant noodle soup base when this was set on my table. Hoping I was wrong, I took a small sip. Yep, it tasted a lot like korean instant noodles. Not expecting that, I was disappointed. Ingredients wise, it didn’t let me down. A few small prawns, quite a lot of sotong slices and really a lot of clams/cockles (I couldn’t tell the difference). Egg was well beaten inside the stew with big pcs of soft tofu. Quite spicy.
