@sukiya.singapore is now my go to beef bowl place not just because their gyudon is cheap and comes in gigantic portions, I also dine there because of their limited time specials. Take for example this Yangnyeom Cheese Beef Yakiniku Bowl, which clocks in at $13.80 nett for the XL bowl. The XL boasts double meat and twenty five percent more rice, making this a beefy bowl for the turbobulkers.

The normal gyudon is upgraded by grilling the thinly sliced beef in a teriyaki glaze, resulting in even more flavour from that majestic Maillard reaction browning the beef and caramelising the sugars in the teriyaki. The beef is already fantastically flavourful, but the yangnyeom sauce adds a truckload more flavour. The deep umami from the gochujang is mixed with garlic & sugar, adding extra savouriness & sweetness to the already delicious beef. Truth be told, the flavours can get a little too intense sometimes, but all you gotta do is take a swig of the complimentary tea to reset your palate.⠀

I do wish that the cheese on top of the beef & yangnyeom sauce was at least partially melted, but if you move fast enough, you can get it to melt slightly if you swiftly mix the cheese in with the hot rice. Still, this XL beef bowl gave me XL satisfaction.
