Walk along the stretch of Tanjong Pagar Road and u will see many Korean restaurants lining both sides of the road but you would only find one with many people queuing outside the restaurant starting from as early as before 7pm.Superstar K is run by Koreans and most of them are pretty fluent in English so ordering food is not a problem at all. I would recommend that you make advance reservation before heading down (they don't take reservation during peak hours) or else be prepared to sit outside
Superstar K is run by Koreans and most of them are pretty fluent in English so ordering food is not a problem at all. I would recommend that you make advance reservation before heading down (they don't take reservation during peak hours) or else be prepared to sit outside and restaurant and wait at 20 mins to a hour to get a table.
Since they are mainly a Korean BBQ restaurant, most of the food are meat (beef, chicken and pork) but they do have other yummy dishes like seafood pancake, spicy and non-spicy cold noodles, ginseng chicken soup, to name a few. After u've ordered your food, they will serve the side dishes to your table. Side dishes include anchovies, kimchi, beancurd skin, potato salad and a complimentary steamed egg. Lettuce is also provided. How the Koreans eat is that you will wrap the lettuce with your BBQ meat + rice+ garlic and then stuff the whole lot in one mouthful. LOL! For the kind of meat, I would usually order pork neck cos I find it juicier and more tender. If u prefer fatty meat, pork belly would be ideal too.
The last time I went with my friends, we ordered chilled Makkoli (Korean rice wine) and it actually goes quite well with the BBQ meat. Should try it if you do take alcohol. Anyway the alcohol content is around 6-7% so there's no need to worry about getting drunk if u drink a bowl of it (btw the staff will transfer the bottle of Makkoli into a kettle and u pour it into a bowl yourself).
Though the table is kinda small and the seating arrangement is rather cramped, it's still a good place for friend's gathering and good food. Definitely going back for more pork neck and makkoli. *drool*
