Woo Galbi
6/L East Wing
Shangrila Plaza Mall
EDSA, Mandaluyong
My SIL from Toronto is here for a two-week vacation. Whenever I can, I drive her around the metro, well, mostly shopping malls. In one of those times, I accompanied her to Shangrila Plaza Mall East Wing where there are plenty of food choices.
My first choice was Green Pastures by Chef Robby Goco. The restaurant had a long waiting list and we could not suppress our hunger anymore so we ended up in this fine dining Korean restaurant called Woo Galbi.

| Woo Galbi Ssam PhP 379 |
I could not figure out the waiter's description of Woo Galbi Ssam. What the heck, right?! I ordered it despite being clueless on what it is. It turned out to be an expensive but very filling dish with a twist.
Read more after the break....

| Woo Galbi Ssam PhP 379 |
Woo Galbi did a modern take on the Korean way of eating sangchu ssam. An order of Woo Galbi Ssam consists 6 beef barbecue on top of rectangular-shaped rice. Right amount of sauces are found on top.
 |
| lettuce, ssamjang, soy and salt& pepper with sesame oil mix |
To complete the Woo Galbi Ssam experience, lettuce and three additional sauces were served. Read here to learn how to eat sangchu ssam.

| Bibimbap PhP 420 |
My SIL ordered a bowl full of Bibimbap. Ordering a bibimbap is quite tricky, there were far too many choices. She selected the following- Beef Bulgogi with white rice (red rice not available ; ( ) in hot stone.
The serving was huge, it can be shared by two hungry girls ; )
 |
| Haemul Pajeon PhP 225 |
I didn't see any seafood on my pancake unlike the one we ordered in Jang Ga Nae, Pasig.
Some of the banchan (appetizer) served to us that I like...
 |
| dilis |
 |
| Korean white beans |
 |
| other banchan served were bean sprouts, kimchi and veggies |
Our total bill amounted to PhP 1,126.40 inclusive of PhP 102.40 service charge and 12 % VAT. It is pretty expensive for three dishes in a Korean restaurant. You pay more for the ambiance and the attention of the wait staff.
