Don Dae Bak Korean BBQ along Kreta Ayer Road offers a Korean BBQ buffet with unlimited meats, sides and steamed eggs at only S$27.90++/pax on weekdays.

What we love most about Don Dae Bak Korean BBQ is that the Korean restaurant uses charcoal grill instead of the usual gasoline grill. That sure makes a lot of difference to our meats!

This small outlet is just like any usual Korean BBQ place—round communal tables that are surrounded by kimchi and side dishes (free flow), all your sauces and chilli, and loud Korean pop songs on repeat mode. They use beef and pork belly from USA and Australia, as well as chicken that is sourced locally.

Don Dae Bak’s Korean BBQ Buffet includes:

• Beef Bulogi
• Beef Brisket
• Pork Belly
• Spicy Pork Belly
• Shoulder Loin
• Marinated Shoulder Loin
• Marinated Chicken
• Spicy Marinated Chicken
• Korean sides
• Steamed eggs

Other than the meats, the Korean BBQ buffet also comes with six free-flow Korean sides and unlimited steamed eggs.

The cherry on top is the pocket around the grill, where egg custard is poured and steamed egg is made. It is so simple, yet nothing short of comforting; just like the great Korean BBQ meals we’ve had in Seoul, though more often than not, steamed egg is a free dish they offer to diners.

Korean BBQ Buffets is considered a past time to us; well, awesome socialising activity while stuffing ourselves silly, if you insist. Having Korean BBQ is more of an activity rather than just having a meal because you usually cook the meats and seafood yourself while chatting with friends; and then, everyone enjoys and have fun together.

Cooking up a delicious meal full of marinated meats and seafood a la minute can only be a good thing – even better when it is a buffet, so you can have them all free flow!

There are way too many Korean BBQ restaurants in Singapore, and one that we tried lately and had a good dinner at is Don Dea Bak Korean BBQ at Kreta Ayer Road.

What we love most about Don Dae Bak Korean BBQ is that the restaurant uses charcoal grill instead of the usual gasoline grill. That sure makes a lot of difference to our meats!

This small outlet is just like any usual Korean BBQ place – round communal tables that is surrounded by kimchi and pickles (free flow), all your sauces and chilli, and loud Korean pop songs on repeat mode.

Don Dae Bak Korean BBQ Restaurant goes by a all-you-can-eat buffet style, with lunch being S$21.90++ per person and dinner at S$23.90++ per person. There is an a la carte option as well, but we say skip that and just go straight for the buffet.

The buffet grants you access to lots and lots of meat. Yes, that’s how a kickass Korean BBQ should be like. Think Marinated Beef, Beef Brisket, Pork Belly, Spicy Pork Belly, Shoulder Loin, Marinated Shoulder Loin, Marinated Chicken, and Spicy Marinated Chicken – ALL.FREE.FLOW.

And the cherry on top is the pocket around the grill, where egg custard is poured and steamed egg is made. It is so simple, yet nothing short of comforting; just like the great BBQ meals we’ve had in Seoul, though more often than not, steamed egg is a complementary dish they offer to kid diners.

On top of the Korean BBQ buffet, you should also give their a la carte dishes a try, such as Spicy Seafood Tofu Soup (S$12), Kimchi Jjigae (S$12), Budae Jjigae (S$28 for 2-3 pax), Korean Ginseng Chicken Soup (S$15), Kimchi Pancake (S$18), and Spicy Rice Cake (S$7).
