Kung Jeon Korean Palace Buffet in Baguio

Baguio Korean Palace

I don’t know what you think about buffets. Overindulging once in a while is venial, but excessively fancy overindulgence is mortal sin.

Edzel and Gayle brought us to try the sanely priced all-you-can-eat Korean barbecue with matching banchan. At 390 Php. you’re in for limitless meats. sushi, kimchi, veggies, rice, etc. It’s worth every cent ‘coz you get to cook your own, so it’s you in the end. Most meats are premarinated, ready to grill, but condiments are also laid on the buffet table. I think I had too much pork liempo and beef belly dipped in my own sweetish toyo-oil-pepper concoction. The beef and spicy bulgogi were okay unenhanced.

The “palace” is a big traditional Baguio home. Decor is normal-nondescript. In a corner, racks of Korean costumes smile at you, hahah, selfies!  There’s also a patio outside for those who like al fresco.

The Baguio Korean community is getting bigger through the years.

  1. That makes sense, charging 500 pesos if you cannot finish your food.

    The Koreans in Baguio are driving real estate prices sky high. Many of our neighbors are Koreans or Pinays married to other foreigners.

  2. My wife and I went there June of this year and I thought the place was closed because there was no cars outside. We were the only patrons for lunch and I have to say it was just ok. Many of the condiments they served along with our main entree was too sweet, probably to satisfy the filipino taste buds which I noticed here everything tends to be sweet. Price was ok for the food that was served but I don’t think we will be going back there again in the future.

    • we got mostly the non-marinated belly and made our own sauce, so in essense we cooked our own meats. i didn’t even have to get sushi ‘coz i instead saved room for the sweetened marble potatoes.
