It was about 5.30pm and I was already at Telok Ayer Street waiting for 6pm (as the restaurants only operates from 6pm onwards at every evenings.) I was kind of surprised to see that the shop was opened when I walked pass.Warmly greeted with the Korean's "WELCOME" (Ang Yong Ha Say Yo) by the korean lady with a smile.

Warmly greeted with the Korean's "WELCOME" (Ang Yong Ha Say Yo) by the korean lady with a smile. She handled the menu to us and went back to her preparations work. Her staff came serving us with some cold drinks while we were referring to the menu.
Oh Neul Han Jeom uses the infra red technology of BBQ stove which reduces the smoke and smell from the BBQ session. The BBQ stove is in build on a table of 4. After making our orders, the lady switched it on to let it warm up.
We ordered the one set meal that comes with 1 main dish, Bangyetang (Ginseng Chicken Soup) & some other side dishes. Side dishes : Cold Tou Fu (Front) & Bean Sprouts with big heads (Back)
Side dishes : Pickled Onion (Front) & Salad (Back)
Side dishes : Kimchi Vegetables (Middle)
Eggs are cooked and served in the mini claypot with bright color of greens (spring onions) on top - a special method of serving eggs. Soft and spongy egg with burnt smell within the eggs. Eggs /food sticking on the walls of the claypot are burnt ("Chao Ta").
Woosamgyeop (Beef Brisket). Yammy!Skillfully sliced and placed onto the plate in circular manner with some ganishings over it.
Presentable looking and most importantly service is a must especially when having Korean BBQ.
Costs: $25
The lady is very polite to caution me by saying excuse me and make way for her to do the BBQ as she use the thongs and place the beef briskets on the BBQ pit with care.
Pancake with green onion (Pajeon) is not bad. Thin & crispy by the side.Costs: $18
Ginseng Soup (Bangyetang) is quite peppery at first but after added the given salt, there are more taste. Soup is not as cloudy as expected, few balls of glutinous rice can be found when I stirred till the bottom. As the essence has gone all to the soup, the chicken meat are tasteless, not very sweet and the strong frozen taste tells you straight away that it was once frozen. I would prefer something stronger in ginseng taste. Costs: $15
Yangnyeom moksal (Marinated grilled pork) that comes with mushrooms are great too!Meat are carefully cut with a pair of scissors by the lady before placing into the BBQ pit. Cubes of tasty grilled meat are well marinated by the Korean lady who served us. Juicy and goes very well with the sweet korean chilli sauce.
The overall spending for our dinner for 2. Decent pricing for a nice Korean dinner. Recommendations and Tips
Closer to the kitchen, there are a stretch of seating which are more enclosed, it is suitable for group gatherings especially. Another place added to my list of gathering places!
I know of many who dont really enjoy korean BBQ due to the stinky smell all over the body and bags after the meal. However Oh Neul Han Jeom had took the effort to reduce the smoke and smell, it is a definitely another korean place not to be missed.
