FoodTasteTest: Dakimong (Korean Dining)

In a lot of occasions, I’ve openly declared my love for Korean food. And this post is no exception.

Weeks ago, some friends and I dined at Dakimong. It wasn’t our first as we’ve been there many times. But it’s the first time that Kat and I had our cameras with us since earlier that day we had our company outing.

Dakimong isn’t the only Korean restaurant in town. Cebu is teeming with Kimchi Korean restaurants. Probably, they outnumbered our very own Filipino restaurants or perhaps I’m wrong.

Anyhoo, this particular resto is open from 11:00 in the morning and normally close at 2:00 early morning.

For that night, I was quite full and enjoyed devouring every bite of the dishes we ordered.

Here are the delish food we gorged on:

samgyup w/ rice

Look at that color It’s steaming hot!

Let’s backtrack a little and see how this dish was prepared.

veggies cut into bite sizes

servings of rice

And while we waited for it to be ready, we delightfully munched on the rest of our orders

ramyon

mandu

And like most Korean restaurants, Dakimong serves free appetizers side dishes. I mean loads of them. The appetizers side dishes alone are enough to make my hungry stomach happy Plus, you can actually ask for another round if you like.

For a closer look:

korean pancake

veggie salad

sweetened chinese chives

pickled radish/cucumber

kimchi

Dining at Dakimong was one of the most satisfying dining experience ever.  Inexpensive food, great food, attentive staffs – what else could a diner ask for?
