Sarang @ Orchard Central


Sarang (“Love” in Korean) is a restaurant all Korean fanatics would probably make it a point not to miss out.

Sarang (韩文“爱”的意思)是一家韩国迷应该不会错过的餐馆。


The restaurant is situated on the 7th floor at Orchard Central, with an open view of the city.

餐馆位于乌节中央城的七楼,前无遮挡,有不错的景观。


The alfresco area offers a nice dining experience in a relaxed atmosphere.

这里提供一个轻松的氛围让户外用餐更有乐趣。


What’s most striking about the interior design is a red wall covered with photos of their chefs and a giant heart-shaped photo collage.
Curious about the photos of the chefs on the wall, JAF checked out with one of the servers, and learnt that they are all part of a team of 8 Korean chefs, working on a rotation basis with 2 rest days per week.

餐馆内部最引人注目的就是那一道红墙,除了有厨师搞怪的照片,还有一大片关于韩国的照片拼贴画。
找食趣数一数墙上厨师的照片,有八位那么多,便好奇地向其中一位侍应生询问。
原来八位厨师都是特地从韩国过来,工作时间轮班制,每周休息两天。


This is a clearer view of the 8 chefs.

Sarang Japchae $6.80
– Stir-fried vegetable vermicelli tossed in sesame oil
This is our number ONE favourite among all the dishes we ordered. We like the light fragrance of the sesame oil taste.

清炒冬粉($6.80)加入了灯笼椒丝和鸡蛋丝,但最重要的主角其实应该是芝麻油,若没有它,这只是一盘普通的菜肴。
口感极佳,是我们所点的菜当中的第一最爱。


Ginseng Porridge (Yeongyang dakjuk) $6.80
– Chef’s signature Korean ginseng and chicken porridge
Mild ginseng taste, tasty and delicious. This is our number TWO favourite.
The portion is not very big, good for maybe 2-3 persons, unless there are porridge lovers around.

人参粥($6.80),药材味并不会太浓,而且还散发淡淡的香味。这是我们的第二最爱。
分量不是很多,差不多够2至3个人享用。但如果是爱吃粥的人又另当别论了。


DJ rice (Sarang dolsot bibimbap) $8.80
– Authentic Korean rice with assorted vegetables, served in hot stone pot

石锅拌饭($8.80)是经典的韩国佳肴,怎能少得了它?


Drunken Pork (Yangnyeom samgyeop gui) $15.80
– Grilled pork belly served with kimchi on a sizzling hot plate
It is marinated in red wine, garlic, salt and pepper. Quite oily, but the seasoning is not too bad. Just that JAF thought the meat could be more tender since it’s the belly portion.

肥瘦相间的“醉”五花肉片($15.80),看到这名字就知道是用酒腌制的了。腌料中除了红酒,也包括蒜、盐和胡椒。五花肉在铁板上烧烤出油脂味和肉香。只是找食趣觉得肉片还不够嫩,吃得不太尽兴。


Rain (Pa jeon) $8.80
– Scallion pancake served on a hot plate
A so-so dish…

韩国葱油煎饼($8.80)味道还好…


Cute Fingers (Tteok kkochi) $4.80
– deep fried rice cakes served with yuja citron sauce
The savoury taste of the yuzu sauce together with the rice cakes, form an interesting combination. Our number THREE favourite.

韩式炸年糕($4.80)配上带点甜甜香气的柚子酱,口感清新,是不错的组合,也是我们的第三最爱。


We were very much attracted to the drinks’ photos inside the menu and decided to order 2 of them to try. To our disappointment, the drinks tasted pretty normal and nothing too special.

菜单里的饮料照片十分诱人,所以我们决定点两杯试试看。
不过…喝起来没什么特别,有点令人失望…
