The Little Devil is actually is a fan of this Nolboo in Singapore because they always deliver consistency in their food. Although it is nice to grill our own food, we don't mind them doing the grilling for us on another table. At least we won't be walking out smelling like our food.
So what's good here. Wine Sam-gyeop-sal (Pork Belly Marinated in Red Wine) – $25.90 (250g). The pork belly has a right thickness, tender, full of flavour and nicely grilled. They normally serve it with grilled mushroom and grilled onion.
If you like your beef, try Kot-deung-sim (Fresh Beef Sirloin) – $42.90 (160g) and Premium Beef – $49.90. The service staff will show you the cut of the beef first before they grill it. If you check out the marble on the beef, you will be drooling now. Both beef are tender and almost melts in the mouth. I have to say, the Korean really know their beef.
As I do not eat spicy soup, Little Devil help me order the Han-bang Gal-bi Tang (Beef Short Ribs Stew with Ginseng) – $19.90. Not sure what happen with the beef stock, the first bowl they served is very salty until I can feel my last few hairs falling off. We decided to ask the waiter to check with the chef, it this is the right taste. As we have good view of the kitchen, the chef actually cook a fresh batch. It was better but the soup still salty. The beef is tender and fall off the bone. The good thing is that they have some rice cake inside soup to helps with the saltiness.
There is quite a number varieties of 'banchan' – Korean side dishes, one of LD's favorite is their summer kimchi (or water kimchi) is very light and refreshing. For the kimchi, it is always a personal preference, the kimchi served in Nolboo is not really LD's likings. They are very generous with their side dishes and raw vegetables that goes with the grilled dishes.
Service is good as they deliver a consistent quality of the grill meat. The pricing is a little on the high side, however the price has a direct correlation with quality of the food. Overall, as promised by Nolboo, they deliver consistently good food in their franchises. Cheers!For the full review and photos, please visit
