Don Dae Bak
(Downtown East Branch)

At SGD34.90++/pax this 100% charcoal bbq buffet place at 90mins per seating, this chain came up a number of times in some reviews as well. Known for charcoal BBQ and authentic Korean side dishes. We headed down to the downtown east branch to avoid the crowds in town. 

Ordered On:
28July23
Added SGD5 for the cheese dip. Fun little side dip.

Food 3/5
*Cuts were nice and thick, but really no seasoning at all for the pork cuts. If they'd provided a little more sauce options, maybe it'd be better. (Only Korean chilli paste and seasame oil and salt dipping sauces). They could have provided a larger variety of marinated meats as well. Their accompanying sides were nice thou.*
Service 2.5/5
*Its a toss up. They were very conscientious to have the grill plates frequently changed. In an hour of dining, the grill plate was changed about four times. However, the rest of the queries with regards to the food, seemed more of burdening questions to the wait staff.*
Ambience 3.5/5
Value 2.5/5
Total paid SGD92.40 for 2

Great portion control with the serve for two and the crisp, cold lettuce helped cut the heavy meats. All-in-all, will probably try other Korean BBQ joints next time. The excellent exhaust system did however manage to keep our clothes relatively smoke free from cooking.  

For a charcoal experience BBQ, one might be interested in Three Peacocks for a huge variety of selection and outdoor offerings.
