Chef’s Noodle Korean Restaurant

Posted on Jan 6 2016 - 8:33pm by tweenselmom

This restaurant had been open for a while in Ayala Fairview Terraces but we had just tried it out recently, mainly because it’s beside Yoshinoya where we usually eat. When you are with the kids, you tend to choose restaurants which are familiar to you, you know, to be safe.

Update as of January 2, 2017 : This restaurant had already closed in FT. But they still have the following branches open:

GF, The Block SM North Edsa
Lower Ground Floor, Robinsons Magnolia
GF Robinsons Place Malolos

And since it was a school day, and no kids to please, Steven and I decided to try it out here. The place was big, the tables are wooden and shiny, and they have set tables and chairs perfect for groupies and families of 5-10. They also have nice, comfy spots for couples. Lighting is actually better than it appears when you are outside the restaurant.

We ordered their Good 2 Share meal which consisted of 6 pieces of chicken, 2 Drinks, and 2 Bibimbap for P500. They actually had nice set meals good for sharing. If you like Korean dishes, you’ll enjoy going here with friends and families. I’ve looked at their menu and they have a nice selection of food, which include rice, chicken and dessert. (my husband’s usual requirement is rice, the kids chicken, and me dessert haha.)

I chose the pork Bibimbap while I ordered the chicken Bibimbap for hubby. We don’t eat Korean that much but it was a good experience to try what they offer. They serve the Bibimbap hot, with all those veggie and meat ingredients on top of rice, with one whole fresh egg on top. You’ll have to mix everything together quickly if you want that egg cooked. One mistake though is that we didn’t ask the waiter to lessen the spicy ingredient. The mass of rice became a little bit hotter than what we usually eat but fortunately, the fried chicken and gravy and the sweet iced teas (lemon and strawberry) diffused the spiciness.

Their fried chicken covered with batter were big so may take out pa kami for the kids. And the gravy tasted good too. What we missed trying out were their Korean rice cake for desserts, and their special drinks in mason jars. Will definitely be going back at least for these, but I also have in my mind their tempura which my eldest will certainly be eyeing out for. They also have wifi access inside which can be useful while waiting for your order. It took 15-20 minutes before they served our orders and the place didn’t have too many people in there that time.

Over all, it was a great experience and happy to be familiarized with another great food stop in FT. You can check more of their menu from Zomato.

    It’s really refreshing to try out something new. Still yet to introduce Korean food to my boys and I hope they will appreciate it as much as I like it.

    We haven’t tried this yet but the food looks delicious. This will be next on our list when we’re at Fairview Terraces.

    When we are dining out with the kids, we always ended up with Maxs’, Shakeys and Jollibee… We manage to try out new restaurants when we go for a date. =)
    Trying out something new once in a while is a good experience! Thanks for sharing…

    The food looks inviting. I like that they have group meals. I should try this with my family and friends. I’ll check if they have other branches since Fairview is quite far from us.

    You are right, if with kids, we also tend to choose what the kids love and it’s Jollibee :-).. Haven’t tried eating in the restaurant but the food all looks yummy.

    I’m not really into Korean food, but I am willing to make an exception for this one :))
