Where To Eat In Tomas Morato? O Ga Ne Korean Restaurant Is Worth A Try!

"Japan has sushi, China has noodles and your country has? Samgyeopsal!" Tell you what, this is completely hilarious! Yeah, time to say goodbye to our adobo and sisig my fellow Filipinos. Sorry South Korea, the Philippines is now officially including samgyeopsal as part of our cuisine, not only because we often crave for it but also most of us really love K-dramas(K-pop too) and we somehow feel like we're already part of it everytime we eat this dish. Right?

Unfortunately, it can never be official because it's just a joke. Forgive me please! Couple of days ago when I saw that funny post from a Facebook friend which is very relevant to this new blog post. All kidding aside, it's partly true and the prime basis could be the numerous affordable Korean restaurants in Metro Manila. As they say, they are springing up like mushrooms. We love it!

Yes, we honestly love it! We? Yeah, me and my coworkers. Kinda long overdue story but it was more than a month ago when we had our first team "eat out" at O Ga Ne Restaurant in Quezon City(exact address: 303 Tomas Morato Avenue, Diliman, Quezon City, 1103 Metro Manila). Very common in a corporate world as a perfect way to get to know each other and the idea is somewhat like the quote, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach". Without a doubt you can create a great team, especially if all team members are foodie.

Although rush hour traffic didn't help us to get there smoothly, I could say that it was still a perfect timing because it really satisfied my craving for Korean meat, for my love samgyeopsal. Yeah, my last was roughly 5 months ago at Samgyupsalamat Makati. Totally missed the smoky smell, chopsticks, side dishes and the grill-your-own-food way of cooking. "Once is enough, twice is too much and thrice? Definitely it's your favorite."

O Ga Ne is not that spacious considering it's always open and indeed a haven for many food lovers in Tomas Morato. Yeah, even local actors go here. I call for expansion!

At a very affordable price of less than 400 Pesos (roughly 8 US Dollars) per person, you can enjoy unlimited samgyeopsal. More meat means more fun!

Unlike other Korean restos I've been to, O Ga Ne has portable Korean BBQ grills where you can cook the samgyeopsal. Great thing is, it doesn't create too much smoke but pieces of meat don't cook really fast. So, pretty much that's the consequence when you eat here. As they say, patience is a virtue. Side dishes and lettuce are not unlimited but can be replenished twice. There's free soup too!

No, we're neither love birds nor twins. We're just team members cheering to the freakin' weekend.

Aside from unli samgyeopsal I also had a chance to drink soju when we were there, a clear distilled liquor made from rice. Quite pricey but worth a try even for non-drinkers. The best soju I've ever tasted.

Ma ma ma my Melona! Surprisingly we got free watermelon-flavored ice pops as our dessert. Thank you O Ga Ne! It's a unique and literally sweet gimmick of the resto wherein customers can get free Melona by liking their FB page and posting their photo with (hashtag)#oganeselfie. Oh sure, easy-peasy! Hopefully you'll experience this too when you eat there. In a nutshell, this resto is recommendable for all of you gourmands! Enjoy!
