It was just the other day when I felt like eating just anything having a taste of Korean. Knowing that there are a lot of Korean restaurants nearby, I headed to one.

I had a hearty Korean dinner at Magal Restaurant. Well, let me virtually take you to it. Fret no more for we are about to unveil the antidote to your Korean cravings too. Have fun!

Magal Korean Restaurant dubbed to be Korea's number 1 in the BBQ industry of the country. I guess the one in Mactan is the only branch of it in Cebu.

Like other restaurants, we need to fill out a contact tracing form to get in as we are still on a pandemic. The safety protocol is very well-observed in the restaurant.

The restaurant can cater to more than 50 persons at a time during normal days, but now they limit it to half of how much they can originally cater.

The diners' area has this cubicle-like divisions which contribute a feeling of enough exclusivity. It also has comfortable couches which give one a feeling of home. Also, its yellow signs and warm lighting are just so inviting and sprightly.

With their wide array of Korean food, you can definitely taste nothing, but authentic Korean dishes. It offers premium meat choices and set selections aside from the Ala carte servings.

“Beef and Pork Combo” for ₱2,300 (good for 2), ₱2,900 (good for 3-4)

It comes with Prime Beef Boneless Short Rib + Marinated Prime Short Rib + Pork Belly + Marinated Pork Collar + Assorted Grilled ( Grilled Prawns with Salt, Grilled Mushroom and Pineapple) + Boneless Short Rib Sushi + Soybean Paste Soup with Beef Brisket.

For the Ala carte choices, the prices range from Php200.00 - Php 500.00

I ordered Samgyupsal for Php 350.00 and Bibimbap for Php325.00. Shortly after placing the order, the server set on the charcoal, topped the grill pan, and poured on the egg souffle on the side slot.

The sides was generous, and is by the way refillable. We were served with kimchi, soy-sesame salad, bean sprout and green onion, pickled cucumbers, finger peppers, serving soup, and steamed cabbage to serve as wrappings for the meat.

So how did I find the food? Exquisitely delicious! Also, the service is very commendable. The attendants were polite and attentive, that every time our grill grate gets too greasy and gets filled with meat residue, they change it with a clean one real quick.

As expected, I went out really full. It's a craving satisfied!
