Beyond the Camera: What I Didn't Show You in My Korea TravelVlog

Haeundae Blueline Park - Songjeong Station If you’ve been following along with my recent Korea travel series over at my YouTube Channel , you’ve already seen some of the biggest highlights and the most unforgettable views from our 8-day itinerary. But as any creator knows, the video editing room floor leaves behind some of the best, most intimate moments. Between rushing to catch tour buses, adjusting camera angles, and simply wanting to step back and just soak in the atmosphere without a lens in my face, there were a handful of stunning places that never made it into the final vlogs. So, consider this blog post the "bonus footage." Now I’m sharing the stories, the hidden history, and the quiet morning walks from three incredible and distinct villages: Seongeup Folk Village in Jeju, Ikseon-dong Hanok Street in Seoul, and Gamcheon Culture Village in Busan .  Before I begin, have you watch the video on Jeju Water World ?  Osulloc Tea Museum ~ in Jeju Island Our itinerary inc...

Food Review | BORNGA, Original Korean Taste

There are many Korean restaurants in Singapore serving identical food like Korean BBQ, Army Stew, Bulgogi, Fried Chicken and so on. How to choose? Based on reviews? Every individual has their own taste preference. So may not be accurate. Based on branding? Even worse. I have come across those big names and long queues but food not really fantastic. So what to do? Go on your own and try. Not nice, treat it as money throw into the water and never come back. 

Came across BORNGA few years back. Didn't give it a try until now. Finally.


Chef's Recommendation: Born-Ga Bulgogi


A Korean dish consists of marinated beef, different types of mushrooms, vegetables, Korean glass noodles that is cooked over a perforated dome griddles. It is similar to Thai Mookata where you can have grilled food and soup in one go. Using their special sauce, the beef fillet taste succulent and chewy. Priced at $45, ideal for 2 pax.



Was told by the waitress that we do not have to do anything (judging from the pile of food on the dome griddle pan) and just let the food cook on its own. But remember to put the veggie into the soup to boil instead of grill. You won't want charred veggie. I probably think this is the difference with Thai Mookata.



The soup base appears light but sweet and tasty. It gives you the beefy taste and you can find chopped garlic in it too. I believe that the oily traces are from the beef put to boil for hours. Correct me if I'm wrong.  Definitely suits heavy taste buds. 



So the standard side dishes. Refillable. It doesn't really thrills me this time round as we are not having BBQ. I enjoy having fresh vegetables to wrap with my BBQ meat along with these sides. It makes every bite crunchy and palatable. 

So Bornga is your another choice for Korean BBQ or Bulgogi. The price range is affordable, especially when you are sharing with your makan buddy. Share the fats too. Don't mind.
