Chung Gi Wa

ig : @geefoodiary

Pertama kali makan di @chunggiwa_resto . Korea nya khas banget. Pas Gee dateng sepi banget, gatau emang pas jam sepi atau resto nya sepi. Pas kita kesini minta tolong dimasakin, dan boleh. Pelayanan biasa aja. 

🍖 Usamgyeop (120k) 
🍖 Japchae (95k) 
🍚 Rice (15k) 
🍵 Ocha (15k)

Seminggu yg lalu saya kesini buat makan siang. Sebenarnya sih dah sering bolak balik lewatin chung gi wa. Tapi karena saya gak makan Babi, agak malas cobain bbqnya. Jadi minggu lalu saya kesini makan bibimbap nya aja.
Believe it or not, the portion of bibimbap is so big. Hampir aja saya gak bisa menghabiskan bibimbapnya. Tapi karena saya pantang buang makanan, saya habisnkan pelan2.

Rasanya sih enak. Bahan2nya juga fresh smua.
Dan seperti resto korea lainnya, kita pasti disediakan side dish yg free. Ada 6 side dish yang disediakan. Enak2 deh. Ada terong, kacang, kimchi, cha sawi, dll.
Yang disayangkan servicenya aja sih. Fast service sih, tapi kurang ramah. Jadi agak2 gak nyaman.

Lunch meeting sama client, milih disini karena super kelaperan. Pas side dishesnya dateng aja langsung gragas 😂 Mesen 3 jenis daging lupa yang mana aja, Jjigae, ama Japchae. Everything was super tasty super delish and the meat was super tender, bahkan Nasi Putihnya pun super pulen. Price-wise memang pricey tapi worth it!

Outlet ini sangat spacious jika dibandingkan dengan outlet2 lainnya dan jarang sekali terlihat sepi pada jam makan siang atau weekend.
Kali ini lunch nyobain :

*Jumuluk marinated short rib (175k)

Beefnya enak, dagingnya well marinated, empuk, dan terasa manis.
*Bibim Nengmyeon (65k)

Cold buckwheat noodle in spicy and sweet sauce with egg, veggies.

Mie dingin ini porsinya besar. Sweet saucenya juga enak.
Side dishnya tidak terlalu banyak tapi cukup enak,  disini sesame leavesnya fresh...suka banget rasanya bikin nagih.. mirip2 mint dan enak banget kalau dimakan dengan daging bbqnya.

Iseng ke Kokas pas jam pulang kantor, dan tertarik coba chung gi wa.
Variasi menu ga terlalu banyak, gue order pork belly with skin (idr 99k) & kimchi chige (idr 65k).
Disini begitu kita selesei order, bakal dikasi side dish, kimchi dan sebangsanya.
Pork belly gue dipanggangin sama waiter disana, jadi gue terima yang udah siap dimakan, dan masaknya pun pas, ga alot.
Kimchi chige, pas order ini langsung dapet free nasi putih. Rasanya oke, banyak babinya.
Cuma, gue agak kecewa sama waitressnya yang ga murah senyum dan terkesan ogah-ogahan.

Chung Gi Wa is one of Best Korean BBQ Restaurant in Jakarta. They have a lot of menu in here. Their Dharmawangsa’s main branch has open for ages, and Kota Kasablanka is their newest branch. Chung Gi Wa has been one of the most popular ones in town.

Chung Gi Wa in Kota Kasablanka always seems to be crowded everytime I pass by, so I have been craving to eat in here and try their BBQ. My friend is recommended Chung Gi Wa as a The Best Korean BBQ Restaurant in Jakarta. So, I choose to try this one in Kota Kasablanka. Actually, I want to try Chung Gi Wa in Kelapa Gading but finally chose Kota Kasablanka because it’s near my place.

Finally! I can eat Samgyupsal after craving this food around a month haha!

We order SAMGYUPSAL (of course!), Bulgogi and Bilneng Myun.

As in other Korean restaurants, they serving a lot of side dish like kimchi, radish, and the others (I don’t really know for the each name of side dish) for free. And ocha for free too.

Samgyupsal
- IDR 87K
it’s a pork belly! yippie!! I love this one so much! It’s so delicious, but maybe it’s too long grilled so I can’t taste the juicy meat. It’s too dry.

Bulgogi
- IDR 87K
It's Marinated Beef BBQ. They have a really good spice in this meat. I love the taste of it. And the Bulgogi is well cook, better than the samgyupsal.



Bibimneng Myun
- IDR 75K
It's a Spicy Cold Noodle. Can you imagine that? Cold Noodle? haha.. The first time I heard about Cold Noodle, I think it will taste weird, because we usually eat hot noodle. But, when I try this one, I really love it! The Spicy is the best. And in Cung Gi Wa they serve really spicy.

Maybe because they have a lot of customers so the waitress help us to grilled the meat so it'll be more fast than we grill by ourself.

I think it's a little bit pricey for the meat because the portion maybe just for 2 people or less.

For the ambiance it's really feels like "in Korea". I see a lot in Korean Drama for Korean BBQ Restaurant like Chung Gi Wa, and maybe because there are a lot of Korean people eat in there too so I feel really in Korea.

And one I loved about this place is because they have a good ventilation hood so we don't smell like meat after grilled the meat, and even though there are so much people smoking, I don't smell the smell of cigarettes.

I'm so happy with this!

So far I really satisfied to have a great time in here. Will go again? Yes!
