Korean nutrient is non something that I intend I'd ever tried until the other level when nosotros went to a Korean BBQ eating theatre called Seoul inwards Chijmes. Chijmes was originally a Catholic convent called the Convent of the Holy Infant Jesus in addition to it was from these initials that the name Chijmes was partially formulated. It was used equally a convent for 131 years earlier being converted, whilst retaining many of the features of the convent, in addition to now hosts many bars, restaurants in addition to shops. The complex was preserved equally a national monument inwards 1990 and I think it is 1 of the nicest conversions of a house from 1 role to to a greater extent than or less other that I've seen in Singapore. Once you lot are within the complex it is slow to forget how key you lot genuinely are. Especially when you lot are dining inwards the restaurants on the upper marker in addition to enjoying a warm Singapore evening in addition to proficient company.

Before nosotros went to the eating theatre I knew that Kimchi (fermented vegetables) was a really pop Korean dish but other than that I knew really picayune else. I genuinely thought kimchi was ever made out of cabbage but I've since discovered it tin survive made from several other vegetables equally good including onions in addition to cucumbers. Kimchi is the well-nigh pop side dish inwards Korean cuisine in addition to nosotros definitely had enough of it the other level equally good equally soup dishes in addition to noodles. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 lot of the kimchi side dishes were fairly hot in addition to flavoured amongst chilli's but were all very pleasant. The photos below demo to a greater extent than or less of the side dishes nosotros enjoyed.
Obviously equally it was a BBQ nosotros did bring to a greater extent than or less meat amongst our repast equally good (beef in addition to pork) but I did non larn whatever photos of this. Mainly because nosotros had a waitress cooking our meat for us in addition to past times the fourth dimension she'd finished nosotros had pretty much eaten all the meat. I empathize that inwards well-nigh Korean BBQ restaurants inwards Korea the diners volition laid upward the meat themselves, but nosotros were non given this option. Perhaps because it was a charcoal grill built into the tabular array in addition to nosotros may perchance bring got carried away...... Fortunately I've been able to sense this in other restaurants here, when nosotros enjoyed Japanese steamboat for example, in addition to also when we went to the Hot Stones eating theatre on Clarke Quay where you lot laid upward your ain selection of meat on, equally the cite suggests, a hot stone.
It was a fun evening, the nutrient was all delicious and I'd definitely provide for more.
