Budget: $10~15 per pax
I have been living in Clementi area for almost one and a half year and was always hunger for a nice Korean restaurant as Korean BBQ buffets or hawker centres were the only options for Korean food in this area. Imagine how much delighted I was when I saw Jinjja Chicken ('jinjja' means 'real' in Korean) was opened here at The Clementi Mall! At only $8~$11 nett per pax, Jinjja Chicken provides casual Korean dishes of good quality such as yangneum chicken wings, jjamppong or jjajangmyeon or bibimbop. Of course I don't expect as the same quality as I would be able to find in Seoul at that price but their foods are pretty satisfying even to a native Korean like me, considering Singapore's infamous cost of living. I love Monster Jjamppong Set, which comes with super spicy jjamppong(a lar carte at $9.90 nett)+french fries+soft drink at only $11.90 nett. The spiciness of this menu is supposed to be brutally spicy so it is named as 'Monster', but I feel it is not THAT spicy and still bearable level of spiciness to spicy-lovers like me. The quality of the noodle inside jjampong seems random - sometimes it is nicely done while I have also encountered overcooked noodles on a day with bad luck? Haha....the generous portion of seafood and vegetables such as squid, clam and onion should be enough to fulfill one adult's hunger along with the noodle and soup. The broth, to which red chili oil adds rich flavour, is so addictive that I think I'll stick to the jjampong for a while when I go down to Jinjja Chicken for Korean food. The french fries served for the set option is not very outstanding, just normal fries.One bowl of spicy jjampong can be a nice cure for a hangover morning :D
P.S: The translation in Korean for 'NO PETS ALLOWED' is wrong :P
