I and the husband had lunch at the Megamall foodcourt last week and since he was missing Mr. Kimbob's Korean food, we chose to eat there. I've raved about Mr. Kimbob in more than 2 of my blogposts and I really meant those. But now, let me rant about two things.
The husband ordered the Donkatsu meal and I opted for Jjapchae.
Strike#1. I was almost done with my jjapchae and the Donkatsu meal wasn't served yet. I asked him to follow it up because it was unusually taking forever, and we ended up so frustrated. If he hadn't gone to the counter to follow up, the Donkatsu meal would never be served. The kitchen people didn't know there was an order for the Donkatsu meal and they didn't prepare it. They were dodging blame.
Strike#2. WORSE. Maybe we failed to notice this detail before, but just look how thin the meat inside the tonkatsu breading!! It pissed me off that the breading is three times thicker than the meat. No wonder the donkatsu doesn't taste good, so ho-hum without the veggies.
thick right?!
how I wish I have a clearer photo for you to see how thick the breading!!
see how thin the meat is?
look closer!!
Don't get me wrong. I like how affordable Mr. Kimbob is, I like their meals & definitely I am still going back there. But now I think I will skip their Donkatsu forever. Just think twice before you order this meal and make sure your orders get noted in the kitchen.
