Mak Chang Korean Grill Restaurant

Makchang is one of our frequently go-to restaurants near our place. And I'd say it's one of the top Korean restaurants in town. It is located just beside Robinson's Place Ermita, along Adriatico Street. If you're going by car, there are about 4 parking slots so you need a little bit of luck. Don't worry though since you can always park inside Robinson's.

I have to warn you first though, if you're looking for a nice posh restaurant with nice ambiance and all that fancy stuff, this is not the place for you. But if you're looking for an actual authentic Korean Grill restaurant, you'll love the place.

Their menu consists of very basic things to order and is just posted on the wall. There's several types of beef and pork, then some noodles and soup. The menu seen here is quite outdated and they have added a few more stuff while also increasing their prices.

As I said earlier, the place isn't the cleanest nor the nicest. But the combination of food and the extremely good service of the staff makes you feel at home in here. The staff are extremely enthusiastic and they don't waste any time at all. 

Your order will be served together with miso soup, kimchi, sweet potatoes, vegetables, and sweet bean kimchi. These are all unlimited so just keep asking for more after you finish a bowl. Along with these are sauces and garlic.

A personal favorite of mine is the pork galbi. It's simply marinated pork but it's really tender and tastes really great. It's also one of the cheapest on their menu.

Even though it's a grill, their staff does everything. From serving to cooking. 

Yep and this is what's left of our table after a good warm meal. Some Double Mint for free after the bill. :)
