K.COOK Korean BBQ Buffet (Orchard Central)

ABBEY: Medel gave his own “send-off” party at Kcook Korean buffet. That’s how “galante” he is. 

As the name of the restaurant, it serves Korean cuisine. They have spicy rice cakes, glass noodle, gimbap, and kimchi. The barbecue items include marinated pork shoulder, pork belly, chicken, bacon, shrimp and ribeye steaks. Squid, shrimp, and vegetable tempura were also available. Salads, noodles, soup, and free flow of drinks can be enjoyed as well.


WILL: We celebrated a new chapter of life for Abbey and Medel. For 9 years, finally, they were now a regular employee of one of the biggest bank in Switzerland. Thanks Medel for the treat! 

KCook is the witness of our joy that day! I am surprised that Kcook have a lot of choices despite of its very affordable lunch buffet rate which is inclusive of soda and ice craam. 

So what's the best I have tasted there? Well, they have this marinated porks that no need any sauce to be perfect. Then, the kimchi that is not overpowering and quite a good selection of tempuras. 

If you enjoy to cook your food. Please do visit Kcook. One of the cheapest buffet at Orchard.

Bad Bird | Umami Fried Chicken

ABBEY: This was one of the pasalubongs of Wilma coming back from Philippines. She said that they dined at Bad Bird restaurant (Robinsons Manila) and she wanted me to taste it. 

The chicken pieces are huge and rubbed with lots of spices; lots of it that the chicken became dark brown in color. The taste? The one that I had is spicy and lived up to its flavor. The chicken is not too fat but juicy. 

Next time, we will try other flavors.

Bad Bird | Umami Fried Chicken -- MENU

WILL: You may call it crazy, but I will consider it betrayal if I tried something new without my husband. So when I dined with my nieces and nephew while on vacation in Manila, I got the chance to try the Bad Bird located at Robinsons Manila. 

Finally, I saw a huge-sized fried chicken with rice. Hahaha! And when I tasted it, it flashbacked a memory of Kipp's Chicken of SM North foodcourt. Ahm, well, Bad Bird is better hahaha. It is crispier and not that oily. The taste will make you crave for more. Yum! 

Back on my story. For me not to be haunted by this feeling of betrayal, I brought Abbey Spicy 4 piece platter with hush puppies for only Php695.   

Thanks Ate Ynnah for buying those for Tito Abbey. This Bad Bird is recommendable!

Tostitos Chunky Habanero Hot Salsa Dip

ABBEY: Don’t be intimidated by the “habanero” label on the jar but also not too complacent that it is not hot. 

We bought a pack of Tostitos Scoops and fill it with small amounts of salsa. The salsa will be sweet and not too much heat on first few scoops. But it will be in a few more. Haha. My advise is that eat it moderately and with wine or soda :)

Tostitos Chunky Habanero Hot Salsa Dip

WILL: Isn't nice to eat a bag of chips while watching your fave tv series? Abbey went extra mile and bought a Habanero Dip by Tostitos! 

Correct! It is spicccy!! You will finish a large bag of chips before you finish the spicy salsa dip! This is totally recommended to people who loves spicy salsa. 

Buy some soda at FairPrice! Enjoy the night!
