Palsaik

Palsaik (팔색 삼겹살)  is a famous Korean cuisine with three branches in Seoul and outlets in the US, Japan, Australia, China, Taiwan, Malaysia and the Philippines. With a recently opened branch in Thailand in 2nd floor of Siam center.

Famous for 8 colorful different flavors. I started with their signature set with pork belly that is marinated for 12 to 36 hours in eight different sauces – gingseng, red wine, pine leaves, garlic, herbs, curry, miso and gochujang.

Similar to some Korean places, staff took care of grilling and keeping pan clean using Radish which is an amazing idea. The thing about Thai people is that we are not used to have stranger cooking while we are eating in front of us and it could be awkward sometimes. Not a big deal though, still an amazing experience to leave it to the expert.

Pork belly are cooked very well with firm and fragrant texture. Different flavor offered a variety of enjoyable choice to choose from and side vegetables are surprisingly fresh.

Cheesy fried rice to complete the meal. The rice are not too dry or soggy and well-balance flavored.

Starting my new year with unlimited cheese buffet in Korean restaurant located in SQ1 near BTS Siam station. The place provide two options of buffet as Silver and Gold package and of course I succumb to Gold option since Bingsu is in the option.

Unlimited cheese grilling with beef is quite a new experience for me. Grilled cheese is not too strong and bring harmony to the meal.

Fried chicken with cheese sauce was crispy and not too oily. Surprisingly, the chicken taste good and contrary to my visual. It’s quite an enjoyable greasy chicken.

Ending the meal with Bingsu is quite enjoyable. I still prefer Ovaltine and chesse side of Bingsu though. Overall meal cost about 500 THB which is quite a reasonable price to try out Korean food with unlimited amount of cheese.
