  Reserved table for lunch via Chope. There's a time limit of 90mins for dining. Time to finish is written on the receipt. Staff Gerald asked if it was our first visit. He then explained the menu and what we're entitled to for the orders. No takeaways were allowed, even for the main course ordered. We were supposed to pay before dining but as we're redeeming parking, not sure if time will expire if we redeem at the start of meal. We asked to pay only at the end of our meal and were obliged. Each couple ordered 1 main course (which included the buffet) to share between us and 1 banchan buffet alone. Banchan spread is plentiful, salad is fresh, quite a few fried items but there's no meat items. There're some cut fruits but not very nice, water melon a bit sour, rock melon not sweet & grapes ok. 3 types of soup, Haagen Daz ice cream (3 flavours), soft drinks and coffee or tea were also free flow. Our order of beef bulgogi bibimbap, some slices of beef were tough. Used plates were cleared promptly. We finished eating at "end" time but asked if we could sit to chat. Gerald kindly said it was fine. Overall a pleasant experience.

  How it works is that you have to order a main dish, cheapest starts around $23++. This includes free flow drinks, desserts, salad bar, cooked food. Each person above age 3 will have to order a main. They have kids menu for the younger children. I went on a Sunday evening around 7.30pm and there were quite a lot of empty seats. I chose the Korean fried chicken (honey butter flavour), it looked more like soy with a subtle honey flavour. I got 1 wing and the rest were just boney breast meat. It was one of the driest meat I've ever had. I also tried most of the items from the limited buffet spread. The potato salad was a little sour (might have been left out too long), the egg mayo was quite unappetising. The quail eggs were soaked in a mystery sticky liquid that did not taste like the Korean marinated eggs. The cooked food section were mostly fried processed frozen foods such as sweet potato fries and chicken nuggets. There were 3 soup options: mushroom soup, samgyetang (skipped) and odeng soup. Not much ingredients but the odeng broth helped me to eat the dry chicken. Soda dispenser was good, and the ice cream section (was too full so only had a small bite). Is good for families with small kids as there's options for them to eat but at this price point, there's definitely more delicious and authentic Korean food out there. Still have much room for improvement.

  I read quite a few of not so good reviews and ratings, I think it depends on the time and day. Oh well I understand they have to be consistent at all times. Me and other 2 friends managed to book a table last night at 6pm. Have to order and pay for your mains and the 90 mins dining will start. The spread is good and they do refill it when necessary. The mains are good too. We ordered the herbal chicken - which I tried the first time and it’s a bit bitter not sure if that’s really is the taste but my 2 friends enjoyed it. I got the spicy grilled chicken, not as spicy as I expect but all good. The soup choices were good too, we had the fish cake soup. And the highlights of course is the ice cream! Over all it’s a good place to go if you’re craving for a Korean meal fix. Just make sure that you book a table coz you have to wait for at least 30 mins. Free pops-corns too while waiting. And yeah, they did not chase us to leave. Gamsamida 감사합니다
