Had a friend from Europe passing through Singapore, so took him out for Korean BBQ which is always a fun, social meal. I had a birthday dinner at Ju Shin Jung last year and loved it, plus I live nearby, so decided to go there. Arrived a bit after 8pm on a Tuesday night and were quickly seated. Lots of people in the restaurant which is always a good sign! Service is very attentive and we chose a few meats to have grilled - the bulgogi beef ($50) and marinated chicken ($22).

Arrived a bit after 8pm on a Tuesday night and were quickly seated. Lots of people in the restaurant which is always a good sign! Service is very attentive and we chose a few meats to have grilled - the bulgogi beef ($50) and marinated chicken ($22).
Out came all the side dishes - tofu, pumpkin custard, different kinds of kimchi, anchovies, soup, etc. There's so many of them... but I honestly didn't care for the taste of most of them. The soup was very sour, the pumpkin custard was very sweet for an appetizer, and the fried dumpling things were cold and soggy. I remember them being a lot better the first time I ate here The meat of course was very good. The bulgogi beef is lean but well marinated, and so yummy wrapped up in lettuce with some chili sauce. The staff cook it for you and cut it up, so you can enjoy your drinks and chat.
Tuesday night is apparently 50% off all drinks, so our jug of Tiger Beer was a bargain $13. They also provide water and cold tea free of charge.
I still liked it (and service is very good), but it just wasn't as good as I remember.
