Chef's Noodles



We're quite happy with the Fairview Terraces Mall.  Ever since SM Fairview started its expansion plans, that mall has been overflowing with customers that the shopping experience has turned out to be quite stressful.  Fairview Terraces has a laid-back feel, aisles are wider (more space for Gwammy's wheelchair), and shopkeepers are very customer oriented.


With Monique and Andi in tow, I chose to have a quick lunch at Chef's Noodles, a Korean restaurant beside the chapel of Fairview Terraces.  Gwammy was hungry and ordered a chicken sandwich while the rest were still strolling around the nearby boutiques.


We started off with some buchu saeu twigim (okoy-like fritter crisps) which were really good.  Our food attendant suggested trying the bulchobap (fire sushi), which was served with a twist--the raw Wagyu beef slices are seared table-side via blowtorch, and that was an interesting procedure to watch.



Their fusion style was evident in the carbonara, in which rice sticks were used as the pasta.  I read from their menu that the fasting selling item was their Chef Guksoo (beef noodle soup) and we were not disappointed with the taste and presentation.  The bibimbop and fried chicken that we ordered were not bad, but didn't stand out though.




We finished with a rice dough dessert, topped with chocolate and sesame seeds, the name of which escapes me now (yes, getting old and forgetful).  The meal wasn't bad at all, at some P400 per person.
