Joining the ranks of Korean joints in Telok Ayer is Baek Jung. Cheery Korean service with a great variety of banchan and even free bottled water, we learnt that they have their own small restaurant in Korea and this is their first venture out (though under a different name).

The food is extremely hearty and comforting (we definitely overdid it with #BurppleBeyond’s 1-for-1s). A single stew is large enough for two and we got two stews, beef bulgogi and a seafood pancake between the four of us! Really generous with the pork belly chunks in the kimchi stew, let it simmer until the meat’s tender and dig into the chewy ramyeon – the perfect rainy day comfort. Come here in a group as they’re items are best shared!
