Yoogane 요가네

Finally tried Yoogane @ Westgate after walking past it so many times and deliberating about it but still resorting to our usuals LOL! I enjoyed my dining experience so much that I just had to dedicate a post about it!
We ordered 2 servings of Chicken Dak Galbi 닭갈비 ($18.90++ per pax) and 1 serving of ramyeon ($3.90++) and 1 serving of fried rice ($3.90++)
Before cooking the ingredients!
Spot cabbage, spring onions, potatoes, ddeokbokki (rice cakes) and the yummylicious marinated chicken!
Our sources of carbs! Love how they added gochujang (hot pepper paste) generously on the ramyeon and how they add kimchi, seaweed and sesame seeds on the rice!
And not forgetting their red aprons!
"This is the easiest apron I have ever worn" - as quoted from GM hahaha
It protects any accidental food spills (though that was quite unnecessary for me thanks to 4 years of Nanyang uniform training in preventing food staining the white hongzi haha), to me it was more effective in protecting your clothes from getting that smoky bbq smell!
Shortly after serving our food, a waitress helps us cook our food! Oh and as the cooking does take quite some time, it's quite cool that it's not always the same waitress cooking for us. They have this like "relay" system haha which is quite cool so different waitress comes by to cook!
The whole cooking process was just somehow very mesmerising for me and GM haha! Can tell that they are really well-trained too and not like anyhow mixing the ingredients!
After the chicken and vegs are cooked, they added the ramyeon!
You can tell that they split the ramyeon into 2 halves too so it's easier for us to portion!
(Though GM totally disregarded the portioning and just ate whatever he saw LOL)
After we were done with the noodles, another waitress comes by and cooks the fried rice for us! They chopped up-ed the remaining chicken we had before adding the rice in!
Look at how mesmerised he is HAHA
And tadah it's done! :D
Although the price of a meal here is rather steep (we hardly eat restaurant meals that's over $20 per pax), the service and what they provide makes everything really worth it!
Oh ya they have this free flow salad bar with pickled radish, some salad with kiwi and strawberry sauce, and KIMCHI! I only touched the kimchi haha THE KIMCHI IS REALLY GOOD! We started eating one whole serving of kimchi each before they started cooking haha!
And they have free flow water too! (Yala I cheapskate la but seriously so few restaurants have free flow water nowadays .____.)
The portion is hugeee and super satisfying! We finished most of it except for like ~4 mouthfuls left cause we were super duper bloated (and wearing a high waist shorts doesn't help at all at times like this omg). I guess cause we had 3 huge servings of kimchi each too haha (totally spamming free flow stuffs) that's why we had leftovers ):
The only problem I had with this place is... omg my intestines were totally raging on fire mode. Went to the toilet idk how many times and my butt was burning LOL (okay tmi I shall stop).
Overall a really fun and yummy dining experience, but cause it's quite pricey our next visit would be sometime later! (:
