Short Restaurant Review: Premier The Samgyupsal (Mabini Main)




Rain, rain, don't go away, come back please! It's already wet season in the Philippines but there's still water crisis in some parts of Metro Manila. I guess, even though I really don't like rainy days, I'll still pray harder for more rain because everyone badly needs it. Everyone needs to take a bath, drink water, brush their teeth and wash their clothes. Perhaps, it's also the best time for the government to think about building dams and for the people to be sincere about conserving water. Indeed, every drop counts, so let me share one simple way to save water. Reuse bathwater for flushing. Easy, right?



On a lighter note, Super Folks, how are you today? How's life? Hope everyone is having a peachy day. Just remember this, always train your mind to see the good in every situation. What's my next topic? Well, food blogging is not yet over, in fact I'm now figuratively cooking another short restaurant review. Look at the picture above. Looks familiar? Isn't it appetizing?



"You don't need a silver fork to eat good food." -Paul Prudhomme

Indeed, Chef Paul! Sometimes, all we truly need is a pair of stainless steel chopsticks.



From Japanese restaurant to Korean restaurant, from one small reunion with college friends to another small reunion with former colleagues and from Ramen Nagi to Premier The Samgyupsal. In short, I'll make you hungry again. Ready?



Oh My Meat!

Filipinos love Korean culture dearly, no questions asked. BTS, BLACKPINK, Soju, what else? Kimchi, K-dramas like my favorite SKY Castle and Samgyeopsal. I can say, the Philippines is a perfect tourism ally of South Korea.



Many of us would want to experience Samgyeopsal wrapped in lettuce, Korean BBQ, Bibimbap and Soju sessions in a finest Korean restaurant with our friends, families or colleagues on weekends.



Thankfully, there are a lot of first-rate Korean restaurants in Metro Manila nowadays, they are springing up like mushrooms and one perfect pick is? Premier The Samgyupsal located at 1720 A. Mabini St. Corner Alonzo St., Malate, Manila.



Its name really speaks for itself and I highly encourage you to eat there. A little over a year ago when me and my former colleagues slash lifetime friends decided to try this resto in Mabini. I can say, it was a great deal! For Unli Samgyupsal, we only paid 450 PHP(roughly 9 USD) each, believe me or not, compare to other Korean restaurants in the Metro, it's still affordable and really competitive.



I guess the catch was? I don't know if it's the right term or word but the price was only good for lunch time, from 10am to 4pm. Simply, unlimited but with 6-hour time limit policy. That's fine though, I was already full after 2 hours. In reality, even you, would also feel full or bloated after like 3 hours, unless you are a true red meat lover.



It was an uncrowded Sunday noon when I went there and sadly, my friends were very late. Great thing, I was able to find and reserve a table for us right away. If you're interested, Premier The Samgyupsal in Mabini is a cozy Korean restaurant, it's not also wide but still a nice place to hang out with your buddies. Their Samgyeopsal-gui is incredibly tender, other dishes are also savory like the Gyeran-jjim and as usual, Korean resto tends to be a smoky place because everyone is grilling, that's why I would recommend you to bring extra clothes and baby cologne.



Are you on a Keto Diet? For sure Premier The Samgyupsal can be your second home. But you know what? Whether you're on a Keto or not, it doesn't really matter, as long as you're a food explorer, you will easily enjoy this place.

That's all, Super Folks!

Paradise Philippines 2025: Siargao (Is the Siargao Curse real?)

Para, para, paradise!! Lovely morning, y’all! How’s everyone doing? It’s already May, and so much has been happening lately, office dramas, rotational brownouts, mood swings, the rainy season creeping in, rising inflation, bits of great news, and heartbreaking headlines caused by corrupt politicians. But through it all, you and I still have to keep moving forward, keep showing up, and keep choosing life every single day. That’s probably why little escapes and quiet moments away from the noise feel extra special these days. Today, we’re diving into a new blog post, and I have a question for you: if you were given the chance to escape today — even just for a little while — away from all the responsibilities and stress of the world, where would you go? Would you finally visit the place you’ve been dreaming about for so long? Or would you rather wander off to somewhere random, with no plans at all? More than two years ago, I found myself asking this question: now that I finally had...

Bauan, Batangas: The Immaculately Beautiful Sunset In Sampaguita Beach (Certified Boracay Alternative)

Describe, Boracay ? Beautiful and oh my, very beautiful! That's all I can say. Have you been to that paradise, in the Philippines ? Have you heard the news? It's been almost five years since I first visited this popular holiday destination in my country, merely to relax and enjoy life with my friends. I can say, it's truly a memorable vacation because it was also my first plane ride. Brrr! I still remember how cold the aircraft cabin was. It was freezing cold. Just like you, I'm also missing this true heaven on earth. I'm missing its powdery white sand, barefoot walking, Puka Beach , perfect turquoise water, dramatic sunset, super fun nightlife, yummy seafood, island hopping and my favorite ATV(all-terrain vehicle) ride. Oh goodness! How soon can I experience these again? Perhaps, tomorrow? Sure! Sadly, we can neither go tomorrow nor next week. "Breaking News: Time to say goodbye, Boracay will be closed for 6 months" . I wish it's a fake news but...

Majayjay, Laguna: Don't Go Chasing Taytay Falls! (My First Waterfall Experience And The Happy Side Trip To Liliw)

Hey, what's up Super Folks ! How are you doing today? Did you get a good sleep last night? Me? Praise God, I had a good sleep because it was my rest day. This morning, I'm just watching random YouTube videos, like the vlogs of Bretman Rock , Alex Gonzaga , Lost LeBlanc  and my new fave is the channel of Heart Evangelista . Have you seen her video with  Sen. Chiz Escudero about adulting ? Oh my, you should watch it. They were sensible and articulate. Generally, this is what I do on my free time. I feel like, as we grow older, we really need to watch hilarious and self-help videos because they give good vibes. I'll tell you, it's very important nowadays. Yeah, we don't wanna hear fake news and politics. We wanna grow old gracefully. In addition, I often watch Jollibee Mukbang videos, oh my I love chickenjoy and 90's Music videos. I don't know but honestly, I'm starting to admire the songs of  Backstreet Boys , Westlife , A1 and Hanson agai...
