Seoul Yummy~ So Yummy

Hwan-yeong! Great Korean Food with most of their ingredients brought in from Korea, Seoul Yummy had opened their 4th outlet in Marina Square. With a newer fusion concept of korean delicacy, the design of the outlet is more of the Pop Culture of Korea.

With the well spread sitting arrangements, Diners could enjoy their meal comfortably. Overlooking Marina Boulevard, if you sit by the window,  you
can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the beautiful street view.              
The menu is filled with the pictures of their food which allows diners to make their choosing easier especially seniors like me who prefers to look at pictures than words.We were spoilt for choice thus we decided to go with the recommendations on the menu as everything seems very tempting.

For starters, we ordered Braised Pork Belly, Kimchi Pancake & Spicy Rice Cake.
Main dishes were Ginseng Chicken Soup, Army's Stew, Sindangdong Doekbokki & Andong Jjim Dak. And the meal is not completed without the dessert which we had Korean Patjook & Special Trio Bingsoo.

Another plus point about Seoul Yummy is that their side dishes are FOC and free flow, with the pickles, chilli anchovies, toufu, kimchi, radish & watercress.

Braised Pork Belly ($9.90)

Braised Pork Belly is braised with dark soya sauce with light saltiness which enhanced the sweetness of the pork belly. The layers are clearly distinguished from the skin to the fats and flesh. Cooked nicely till soft which just melts in your mouth. The belly is not too oily but yet fragrance of the pork smells just right.

Kimchi Pancake ($7.90) - Served in hot stone plate, the pancake is pretty crispy that is lightly charred adds on to the experience of this dish. The fillings are of chunky kimchi which is lightly spicy but more of a sourish taste which opens up your taste bud.

Classic dish of Spicy Rice cake ($8.90) is one of my favorite Korean dish especially when it is real spicy. The rice cake is very well done given the fact that it is not "Teeth Sticking", coupled with the chilli sauce, it is a real dish that all visitors should order.Spicy Rice Cake ($8.90)

The service is pretty good which they served the mains only after clearing our starters. 

Andon Jjim Dak ($39.90) - Chicken parts cooked with various vegetables marinated in Korean Soy Sauce, stirred fried with Korean glass noodles which is savoury in taste as it sucked up the sauces giving it great taste and bite feel. It could be improved if the chef could reduce the amount of dark sauce used but I am glad that it wasn't too salty.

The well-known Army's Stew is served with a stove which allows diners to eat direct from the pot. Army's Stew is a dish that was cooked during war time and had been handed down since, the ingredients are all placed in the pot and cooked. This served the soldiers a filling meal as well as helping they to kreb the coldness in the wild. 

Army's Stew ($36.90) has lots of ingredients which includes kimchi, pork belly, Spicy chicken, beef bake beans, vegetables, enoki mushroom, hotdog, luncheon meat and of course Korean instant noodles. The soup is of spicy based and well boiled with the essences of the ingredients. Bringing the pot to boil for about 5mins cooks this dish just nice, soft noodles and tender assorted meat coupled with the great favoured soup which fills your mouth with the aromatic taste.

DOEKBOKKI ($39.90) to my surprise this is a snack item rather than a main dish according to Koreans. This is a specialty dish in SINDANGDONG if you visit Korea that is a common "snack". Bean paste taste liked is used to add savoury taste to the snack. Topped with marinated sliced beef, rice cake, dumplings, hard boiled egg, assorted vegetables & Korean noodles. Served on a stove for the diners to enjoy a piping hot meal. The beef is nice when boiled in the broth, the rice cake is as good as the starter. The soup is slightly too salty for me and a lesson learnt is that once the noodle is cooked, stop the flame, as it causes the soup to be thicken pretty fast and the ingredients gets soggy after leaving the flame on. 

Dessert is a spoilt for choice for us. Everything seems so yummy but we decided on a Hot & a Cold item to end our day.

Pat Jook (Red Bean) ($7.90) is served with mushmellow which you are supposed to dip into the red bean paste to add sweetness to it. The paste itself is not a really sweet "Sweet" dessert like our local chinese. It is lightly sweeten with the green tea mochi. 2 different kinds of red bean in terms of their different texture, 1 is cooked till soft like our chinese redbean while the other is cooked but not till overly soft. The combination gives you a different experience on the dessert will palatability of softness and bite feel texture makes this dessert enjoyable.

 6 Turns of Yogurt Mango Ice Cream is served with fruits and nata de-coco sitting on ice with syrup, just like our Ice Kacang.
Korean Special Trio Bingsoo ($7.90) tasted real good the smooth texture of the ice cream with the fruity taste of different fruits gave a grand finale to the dinner.

The whole visit to Seoul Yummy is totally wonderful especially having to try their new items where other outlets had yet to served. Do pay them a visit if you want to try some fusion Korean delicacy.
