Sagye Korean Pot Rice and BBQ

The Beef Short Rib pot rice was served with strips of tender and flavourful beef.

The Beef Short Rib is the most popular dish here and is totally a must have here at Sagye.

The food here at Sagye all looks damn good on social media, especially their sotbab(korean pot rice).

Sagye appears too many times on my Instagram feed for me to keep ignoring and I finally gave in to give it a try.

No reservations, walk in only. And dining only 90mins. Which is necessary due to the regular long queues during dinner time.

After food arrives, mix it real well and scoop out the food unto the a seperate plate to eat off from.

Leave the "chao ta" rice at the bottom for later after your meal and inform the waiter to top up with barley water. Cover it and wait a few minutes before drinking this nurungji "soup" which is machiam like a porridge.

The Kurobuta Pork Pot Rice was flavourful. Pork was tender and fatty. After food arrives, mix it real well and scoop out the food unto the a seperate plate to eat off from.

Sagye not only serves up their Signature Korean Pot Rice & Bbq, they also serves up some rather good Korean dishes such as KFC(Korean Fried Chicken), Soups and Saviury Pancakes.

The Seafood Pancake was damn excellent, it was crispy and the Seafood was fresh. A must have in my opinion

The kurobuta is well cooked but this steaming nonsense really doesn't do the cut enough justice, cos it's not a fatty cut.

Anyway the tomatoes were kinda pointless and as a whole this felt even more plain than the beef one, because it's just dry ingredients with rice, nothing ties it tgt

Again, quite good meat but passable execution. Or maybe this is authentic and it's alr a good execution that's faithful. I have no idea

Beef short ribs were good quality, tender with some chew. The chunks are too big to be a proper mixed rice tho. Crust at the bottom was slightly hard, hardly crispy.

As people have mentioned, it's very very mild. Still enough to eat on its own, but not much body at all. If the rice is not flavoured then the meats must be strongly flavoured, think unagi donabe.

The sauce is plain with nice aroma from herbs and chilies, but again there's no body, so you're only adjusting the saltiness of the rice

The soup added at the end of the meal frankly tastes abit weird

Overall good meat, ok execution but not superb at all and definitely not worth queueing

Seriously one of the best I've had. You can tell from the colour it's much stronger than most
