ABBEY: After booking our sea and air tickets at NATAS Travel Fair (Expo) we went to Changi Airport to look for some place to dine in. We found Jinjja Chicken at Terminal 2. It is a self-service Korean restaurant. I got a bowl of chicken bibimbap for SGD 7.9. Add SGD 2 if you want drinks and fries. It has the usual toppings like egg, meat, and veggies and not that spicy. It is my kind of rice: soft and fluffy. Sad thing that it didn’t last long. Haha. Jinjja Chicken - Korean Fast Casual Restaurant at Changi Airport Terminal 2 Tofu Burger Jinjja Chicken - Korean Fast Casual Restaurant at Changi Airport Terminal 2 Chicken Bibimbap WILL:  Looking for the best holiday deal for our upcoming vacations, time just passed us by. Haha! I was shocked that we left NATAS 2019 Expo around 9PM. The best option for us to have great choices for our supper is at Changi Airport.   We are glad to see that there’s a new Korean fastfood at Terminal 2. The Jinjja Chicken. ...

Ingredients: The ingredients listed are the ones for our version. It will vary from the usual budae jjiage. Kimchi Bee hoon (you can use noodles) - soaked in cold water Rice cakes Mushroom (thin slices) Chilli pepper paste (put according to your spice level) Onions (sliced into strips) Tofu (1/2 inch think squares) Squid balls Kimchi juice Cheese for toppings In a pot, place the onions first. Then place tofu, squid balls, rice cakes, mushroom, bee hoon in heaps. Put water, kimchi juice and chilli pepper paste. Let the boiling begin and scoop in bowls. You can also add spam or luncheon meat, or slices of pork. Budae Jjigae (Army Stew) VERDICT WILL:  Abbey and I achieved another milestone financially and to celebrate that Abbey prepared Budae Jjigae as our dinner (because we miss the Budae Jjigae of Gangnam Wings).  Abbey, made a simple and yet tummy-filling Korean Army Stew even the ingredients are not that much.  The k...

ABBEY: At last we set foot to Gangnam Wings at SM Megamall. We ordered one of their group meals which is good for 6 persons. It includes a whole chicken (we chose sweet and spicy and soy garlic flavors), a basket of truffle fries, a bowl of mango salad, a pot of budae-jjigae, rice, red iced tea and mango bingsu.  Honestly, I liked all the items. They are savory, flavorful and delicious. Budae-jjigae really stood out. It is a meal in itself. It has ham, noodles, macaroni elbows, beans, kimchi, rice and fish cakes and boiled in broth. Wow. All of these for Php1799.00.  Go visit Gangnam Wings and enjoy good times with friends with great food. They also serve alcoholic drinks.

ABBEY: Wilma’s colleague told her that she should try to eat kimchi instant noodle soup. She was told it was delicious. We bought it and then cooked. It didn’t satisfy her cravings for spicy noodles. I got leftover over kimchi so I decided to check how to cook kimchi noodle soup. Here it is: 5 shiitake mushrooms (thin slices) 1 cup chopped kimchi (save the juice) 1 cup kimchi juice chicken stock or cubes red pepper flakes sesame oil sugar cooked noodles chopped green onions Stir fry shiitake mushrooms then add the kimchi. Put in kimchi juice, chicken stock, red pepper flakes, sugar and sesame oil. The amount of each ingredients depends on your preference. We like it spicy, sweet and sour. Rinse the noodles and put in a bowl. Pour broth over the noodles, top with green onions and serve. Quick and Easy Kimchi Noodle Soup VERDICT WILL:  One of my colleagues suggested that I should try the Kimchi Instant Noodle. On that cue, we bought a s...

ABBEY: After our “early” morning seminar on a Sunday, we had our brunch at Kim Dae Mun along Orchard road. They are serving Korean food.  Wilma got me a large bowl of bibimbap. So after saying grace, I mixed my bibimbap and dig in. It was so delicious. The kimchi is sweet and spicy and made my nose runny for a couple of minutes.  It is a self-service restaurant; chope a table, queue to order, bring the food to your table and eat. Kim Dae Mun Korean Food - Menu  Kim Dae Mun Korean Food Kim Dae Mun Korean Food - Kimchi Soup Pork  Kim Dae Mun Korean Food - Bibimbap WILL:  Do you want to dine at an "authentic" Korean restaurant? How can I say it is authentic? It is run by Koreans. Hehe.  Their meals do not pass the range of S$10 with a huge serving and a free side dish. Cheap but not cheapo.  I ordered Kimchi Soup Pork ($7.50) with rice. The taste? Oh my! It is really kimchi. Better than restaurants you can find inside m...

ABBEY: This became a challenge across the globe and I want to try it. I already passed the 4000 Scoville heat units (SHU) and I wonder how much spicy it is if you double it. I successfully finished 3 packs of it.  I already realized that it was really spicy on the first slurp of noodle. My mouth and tongue went numb but I know I can handle the heat. The second time, my eyes teared up without me knowing it and got runny nose also. On the third, it was like normal but still the kick is strong. The taste is sweet and spicy. Make sure to have water, milk or anything sweet on standby in case you want to take the challenge :) A pack of 5 is less than 4SGD now on sale. Samyang Hot Chicken X2 Spicy Ramen 핵 불닭볶음면 WILL:  When Samyang's 2x challenge hit social media, I am shocked Abbey wants to try it. It seems that I am not at his side when Abbey evolved from a man who totally don't eat spicy food to a spicy-addicted man.  On his first pack, I tried a little r...

ABBEY: Wilma is still infected by the ‘kimchi bug’ so I cooked this for her. Ingredients: 5-6 strips of bacon (fried then diced) Medium carrot (julienned and chopped) Shiitake mushrooms (sliced lengthwise) Garlic (minced) Scallions (chopped) Kimchi (chopped) Cooked rice Sunny-side up fried eggs Salt and pepper Chili flakes Zucchini (optional) Sauté garlic and carrots with the oil from the bacon. Then add the mushrooms, half of the scallions, and kimchi. Put the bacon and rice. Stir until well incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the rice and top with egg. Garnish with scallions and chilli flakes. Kimchi Fried Rice (볶음밥) Easy VERDICT WILL:  While eating a whole plate of Kimchi Fried Rice at one of the restaurants at Orchard, without thinking, I convinced Abbey that cooking the dish will be an easy-peasy for him.  I was astounded after around 2 weeks he surprised me with that spicy and sour kimchi fried rice.  The v...

ABBEY: Wilma is craving for kimchi so we decided to eat at Insadong Koreatown at Sentosa. The Koreatown food place is a mix of Korea-Chinese/Western. You will be the one to put your order on the machine so make sure to check the items you want listed in the wall nearby to avoid holding up the queue for too long.  I got pork belly kimchi stew which comes with a bowl of rice and side dishes (anchovies, radish, and kimchi). I like the taste of the stew. It is not that spicy and really enjoyed the flavor along slices of pork belly, kimchi and soft tofu.  The meal alone costs SGD12. And there’s our fix for Korean food.

ABBEY: Wing Zone announced that they holding their 5 cent chicken wing promo. We went to their Buangkok branch July 6 (Hari Raya Puasa) and we're first in the queue :) Opening is at 11AM but got delayed for 10mins.  Instead of picking up my order at the counter, the staff went an extra mile to deliver it to our table. Our table is the one nearest to the counter. Maybe that's the reason, but still kudos to the staff.  I had five Honey Q chicken wings, a cup of rice and drinks. I enjoyed the sweet flavor and the nasi lemak flavored rice. The sauce covered the chicken well as well as my fingers :) I hope next time it can be taken away not only for dine in. Abbey Honey Q Flavor Menu Tokyo Dragon Flavor WILL:  I am always delighted whenever a non-working holiday hits the calendar but I am happier when Abbey took a leave just to be with me on those days.  Wingzone still run their promotion even it is holiday last July 6 (Hari Raya Puasa).
