Ddung's Bob Burger at Robinsons Place Antipolo

Our family was recently in Antipolo to visit our dearly departed at one of the cemeteries there and to meet up with some relatives. For dinner, we went to Ddung's Bob Burger, a Korean fusion restaurant at Robinsons Place in Dela Paz. I was glad that although the place was not really spacious, they gladly welcomed our huge group 
of 15 persons, although we had to split into three groups to be seated. 

We soon found out, however, that grilling meat was a little different at Ddung's from most Korean restaurants we've been to. Instead of LPG-fueled, they only have small round grilling pans heated by solid fuel or wax underneath. The fire didn't last very long and we had to call a crew for new wax every so often. My sister and a cousin would get annoyed by the waiting. Thankfully, the food was good and it 
more than made up for the inconvenience of having to wait for 
"refueling" just so we could finish grilling our meat.

Anyway, we had five orders of their Grill Set (P1,499) that's good for 5-6 persons each and included iced tea and dessert. We also had three 
big orders of Korean fried chicken.

Apart from the inconvenience caused by the use of wax-fueled grillers, my overall experience at Ddung's wasn't so bad. In fact, I enjoyed the food, service by the friendly and helpful crew and the reasonable prices. In particular, the chicken was tasty. The sweetness did not go overboard and they were fried to perfection, such that there was some crunch in every bite. The samgyupsal was good, too, as well as the side dishes, especially the sweet-spicy anchovies. 

As to the Pat-Bingsu or shaved ice dessert, I left it to the young ones to enjoy although I had some but found nothing really special about it. 
There's one thing that's quite unique in Ddung's menu, but we skipped it -- the burgers which are far from the usual thing you can have elsewhere. They have rice as "bun" and various "ulam" or viand such as bulgogi and chicken adobo (yep, fusion!) as "patty". I wish to be back to try these unconventional burgers, 
which, I imagine, are fun to eat!
Try Ddung's Bob Burger when you're at Robinsons Place Antipolo 
and craving for your Korean food favorites. 
Happy eating!
