Before I popped over to Manna Story @ Plaza Singapura to try out their Korean cuisine, Kim Dae Mun was my first conquest of affordable Korean food. Despite being situated in a food court, it's a far cry from what is deemed as "Korean cuisine" in every other food court.

| Chicken Bibimbap (SGD 6) |
You don't just throw some sprouts and meat together in a hot stone pot and call it Bibimbap. Kim Dae Mun's version comes with a everything you'll expect in your Bibimbap,
except that sunny-side up. If you've eaten the authentic version, they actually use a raw egg yolk, so that a pasty rice mixture is achieved when it is stirred thoroughly. I forgive Kim Dae Mun here, on the account that they managed to conjure a really runny
yet cooked egg. My sis (whom I brought on my second trip to Kim Dae Mun) mixed in the kimchi and its gravy so give the Bibimbap a spicier edge. The result?
