Be Your Own Chef at I’m Kim Junior

Foodies addicted with Korean BBQ, get more thrills in the new opening at I’m Kim Junior. I’m Kim Junior is a new restaurant venture on homeground after successful openings in I’m Kim at the School of the Arts (SOTA) and Goro Goro. Opened by serial-entrepreneur Elim Chew, you’ve probably heard of the retail chain 77th Street. What can you expect from the new Korean BBQ restaurant, favourable location at SCAPE, new exhaust pipe at every table, Be Your Own Chef, cheese topping and more! Did I mention? It’s slightly more affordable at I’m Kim Junior for Adult Weekend Lunch and Dinner & Weekday Dinner. This also makes up for the less variety.

This is the most exciting session at I’m Kim Junior will be Be Your Own Chef. How amazing would it be to create a feast without having to prepare or clean up. I get to do the part that I love (cooking), without having to clean up. Yay to the free pass from washing all the oily pots, pans and plates. Ready to cook ingredients including marinated meat, assorted vegetables, dressings for your personal pot. If you worry about the cooking part, no frets, feel feel to approach any of the friendly crews for cooking assistance.

Currently, there are no other restaurants that offer the hotplate BBQ and Galbi, other Korean buffets usually only have the hotplate or having a small bowl for steamboat.

You certainly can’t miss these marinated meats (Teriyaki Chicken and Black Pepper Chicken) that are exclusive to I’m Kim Junior. There are so much meat available in its buffet spread and an impressive spread of side dishes. You can expect Garlic Chicken, Pork Collar, Pork Belly, Marinated Pork Belly, Beef Roll and more. These fiery meats (Volcano Chicken and Spicy Pork Collar) are recommended for experienced chilli lovers. And of course, non- chilli lovers are most welcome to YOLO. Don’t forget to get some drinks ready for spicy food relief.

The Truffle Fries has drew our attention away from all-time favourite Korean chicken wings. I’m getting all excited with the new truffle fries that is exclusive to I’m Kim Junior. Who can resist the addictive thick cut of fries perfumed with truffles. Now, you can have truffle fries buffet at no extra charge!

Be Your Own Chef!

Get your ingredients ready at the counter, and customize your very own galbi to your liking at your table. An option to add cheese topping at S$1++/100g. Simple ingredients like plain rice, marinated meat, squid, mussels, rice cakes, kimchi, cheese, chives and more.

It’s rather straightforward as all the meats are marinated. All you need to do is to make sure that everything is well-mixed, just keep on frying, making sure they’re fully cooked and not burnt.

Make sure you leave some space for BBQ because you don’t want to miss out on the delicious BBQ meats. Inventive marinades for meat, dip these marinated meat with cheese. Alternative adding sesame, soy, onion and garlic renders hunger meats that are utterly delicious.

Having a buffet is already an indulgence. The Ginseng Herbal Soup contained red dates and wolfberries to warm your tummy.

Complimentary drinks (Water, Korean tea, Lime Juice, Water Chestnut) with the buffet.

In conjunction with Korean Beer Fest, enjoy Buy 2 and Get 1 Free when you order Hite Beer, Soju and Makkoli. Kampai!
