ga mi jung is not your typical korean restaurant. they are in business for about 7 years. this is a must dine -in place when you visit antipolo city, rizal province.
at first glance, one may think that it is a korean grocery or kpop karaoke, but the restaurant had attracted several loyal clientele over the years.
there are also a lot of locals and even koreans who would dined-in at the place. this place is good for friend, family and hang-out place. a small portion had some korean ice cream and foods.
the capacity is 40 ground floor and another 40 at the second floor. the second floor is more traditional as visitors are required to remove their shoes. furniture and fixture adhere to korean vibe.
seonji -haejangguk ( ox blood hangover soup ) – this is good with rice, not too spicy and there are bit of coagulated ox blood in rich soup.
japchae – korean two kind of noodles, glass noodles and thick wheat noodles combined. stir fry cooked in korean soy sauce, carrots, pork meat and shredded onion leeks leaves topped with sesame seeds.
jok bal -a korean dish made from pork pig trotters cooked in soy sauce , spices topped with sesame seeds , sliced fresh tomatoes and fresh lettuce leaves. the meat is wrapped in fresh lettuce leaves, sauce and adding some side dishes before eating.
galbi jjim/ kalbi jjim – it is a tender, delicious korean braised short ribs cooked using some spices in soup base. a good compliment with white jasmine rice.
the group ordered rice, sundae -gukbap/ soondae -gukbap ( blood sausage pork intestine soup) , galbi jjim, japchae, mandu ( fried dumpling) and gopchang ( pork intestine soup).
i am recommending this place to my friends, family and co-employees whenever they have a chance to visit antipolo.
