Soban K-Town Grill: Mega Meat BBQ Set!

Soban K-Town Grill

Korean invasion is still at high time and while the love for anything Korean hasn't subsided, emergence of unlimited Korean barbecue restaurants is becoming evident. Who wouldn't want to bring to life those K-drama scenes of grilling some meat, wrapping in lettuce, and feasting with banchan. Paired with Filipino's love for food and making it "unlimited", not a surprise that people line up for hours just to enjoy these restaurants.

You can wait for hours and go that option, OR you can also enjoy the same Korean experience with premium meat, no/less wait time, pleasant ambiance, and great service at Soban K-Town Grill! It isn't unlimited but with the overwhelming serving of meat on their new Mega Meat BBQ Set, it's like having meat-all-you-can too! You can also take home the remaining meat as long as they're cooked.

My first Soban K-Town Grill experience happened at their Greenbelt 3 branch. We dined on a weekday after lunch, which is off-peak, so not much people were around. It has a pleasant and sleek ambiance with some Korean writings on the wall. Tables are well-spaced and there are couch areas.

Mega Meat BBQ Set (2,000Php)

A group set for 4 people. 1,200g of Premium Meat overload. Comes with 300g Fresh Beef Belly, 180g Marinated Beef Belly, 180g Fresh Pork Belly, 180g Garlic Pork Belly, 180g Chili Bean Pork Belly, and 180g Boneless Fried Chicken. Served with a maximum of 4 unlimited white rice, soup, and side dishes

Mega Meat BBQ Set

Mega Meat BBQ Set is what we availed which is good for 4. You can avail it even if you are less than 4 but if you are more than 4, for instance you're a group of 5, you should add a solo set or ala carte.

It's a total of 1,200g of premium meat! Plus you get to have sides (there are 6 side dishes), soup, and rice -- all unlimited! You can even upgrade your rice to Kimchi Fried Rice (option of medium or hot) for just Php20 per person.

180g Fresh Pork Belly

Their Kimchi Fried Rice is good! I had it in medium as I can't intake too much spicy food. The medium version is perfect for me. Just enough to have that kimchi spike but still enjoyable.

For the Mega Meat BBQ Set, I love the addition of Boneless Fried Chicken, which you can't find in unli Korean barbecue restos. It's crunchy on the outside, sweet and flavorful, and you don't have to be bothered by the bone ('cause there's none! Thus, boneless). Also, it's non-grilled so you get a different form and flavor as part of your set.

180g Boneless Fried Chicken

Fresh Beef Belly and Fresh Pork Belly are plain and simple yet best to go with rice, or wrapped in lettuce with sides. They just complement the flavors.

I personally love the Soy Garlic Pork Belly and the Chili Bean Pork Belly because I prefer more flavors on the meat alone. Soy Garlic Pork Belly is sweet and savory, while the Chili Bean Pork Belly has mild hotness. You can tell that the meat were marinated well as they seeped through the meat.

There are 6 sides in this set, all unlimited, but my favorites are Gyeranmari (rolled omelette) and Myeolchi Bokkeum (stir-fried anchovies and nuts). The set comes with unlimited lettuce, rice, and soup as well. I love how the clear soup cleanses the palate so you don't really get overwhelmed with all the meat flavors.

By the way, though usually you grill the meat on your own, you may also request the staff to do the cooking for you on your table.

The set doesn't come with drinks so I ordered Lychee Shake (Php125). No complaints. I love lychee and it's good and refreshing!
