Honey’s Kimchi: Affordable Korean Goodness

Honey’s Kimchi 
Affordable Korean Goodness 

Honey's Kimchi is a Manila based Korean Restaurant 
where most of their stores are found in mall food court areas.

The good thing is, when they opened a branch in

Naga, it was a full restaurant located in Cereza,

 a popular lifestyle center in Magsaysay Strip.

Kimchi is located just a block away from my

son’s school, and since the store franchisee is

a friend, this is where he eats lunch everyday.

I also got to enjoy Kimchi dishes almost everyday  as  
my wife would always buy lunch to take out for me.

.  

This time I had a chance to fetch my son

and took him to Kimchi on his noon break.

The restaurant had an interior typical of

the East Asian culture’s penchant to what

is simple, straightforward and modest.

The tabletop napkin holders are lined up straight in flawless

symmetry with those with the other tables, reflecting the

country’s uncomplicated and understated traditional simplicity.

The menu are displayed on the upper walls

around the restaurant and it gives the diner an

idea that this is a budget fast food restaurant.

Being regulars in Kimchi, I ordered Beef Stew, as this

is my all time favorite dish here. It had a sweetish-

tangy soup base with a pleasant sesame- like aftertaste.

The beef was tasty and had a melt in the mouth tenderness

This is a deliciously greasy dish and best eaten with rice.

Literally and figuratively, ‘this is a dish to die for’.

My son had a delicious Chicken Barbecue.

It was served as bite size chicken nuggets that

seemed to have been soaked in a sweetish-

peppery marinade before cooking and it tasted good.

It was served with rice and sautéed bean sprouts.

Of course, dining in this restaurant is never complete
without ordering their most popular specialty, Kimchi, 
which could either serve as an appetizer or a side dish.



Also available are various Korean drinks and sodas, and we 

ordered Chilsung Cider- that interestingly tasted like Seven Up.

Honey’s Kimchi is a clean and tidy restaurant 
that serves delicious Korean food fast.

 It has been my children’s daily lunch break destination 
in school as it serves student budget friendly dishes.
