LAMON TIME: KimChikin (Dubai BonChon)

A few days ago, a friend of mine decided to go on food tripping and asked me where good food can be found in my area. Automatically, I said "KIMCHIKIN!" and yes, we ended the night with a smile!

If you feel like going all K-POP and modern day Korean...

THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE!!!


KimChikin Chicken Bonchon Dubai, UAE

Kung sa Pinas may Bonchon, dito sa Dubai meron kaming KimChikin na singsarap talaga! The store is located near Park Regis Hotel, opposite Spinneys and McDonalds which is near Burjuman Center. Kung mahirap hanapin, gamitin nyo nalang ang Park Regis Hotel or CLUB 7 as landmark(sikat kasi sa mga Kabayan ang Club na iyan).  Ilang meters away from Park Regis lang and you will find this really amazing place. Kung magme-metro kayo, you can disembark at Burjuman Station, go to Exit 2 and maglakad papunta sa Park Regis. Take note: it is before the hotel so be mindful (baka kasi lumampas kayo eh). Para sa maps, its along D88 Street.

It's not hard to locate because the restaurant is well lit and has colorful "post-it" notes on its walls! YES!-Post-it notes sa dingding mismo ng kainan! This really modern and smart gimik makes the restaurant more interesting lalo na for this generation na mahilig mag-social network and or course, take pictures. 


ANG POSTE NG MGA MAHIHILIG KUMAIN! choz!

STANDEE DIN KAPAG MAY TIME! :)

This is not my first time going here. As you can see, I have my name on the wall already! Yehey!

FREEDOM WALL? Get to see what people think about this place in each note stuck on the wall! You can even post your own note too! This is one gimik you should not miss!

Kimchikin's great and very interesting wall.


The place is really cozy and modern. Although di talaga siya same sa ilang fine dinning restaurants, the place is like fast food chenelyn and mala-JOLLIBEE ang peg. So, keri na yan. For me kasi, ilang percentage lang ang naco-cover ng place at ambiance kasi importante pa rin ang taste ng food (KAYA NGA FOOD BLOG-duh?!). :) 


Infairness sa service crew, masaya and very warm sila!
This is one of the reasons why people keep coming back for more!





The food is just..UGH!---DELICIOUS!

The house specialty chicken (either Soy or Spicy) is just M-A-S-A-R-A-P! Plus the side dishes which is based from traditional Korean food makes the meal soooo complete. Heto pa ang good news: THEY HAVE RICE! Alam ko kasing yan ang hanap ng mga Kabayan sa restaurant kung kahit saan man. Kaya this is very good news na meron silang rice!
Sa Korean dinning, DAPAT nanjan ang KIMCHI! Ito ang nagpapasarap sa lahat eh!

Meron din silang Kimchi Coleslaw which is also yummy and spicy.



Ito yung SOY CHICKEN nila! Its Crispy on the outside and very juicy in the inside! <3 td="" this="">


They also serve noodles and other Korean Dishes with twists. 
Ito naman yung Beef Bulgogi Rice nila na masarap din.
As for the price, sakto lang naman siya sa okasyon. It is reasonable and trust me, mabubusog ka talaga sa food nila.

While waiting for your order, bongga ang activities na pwede gawin!

One: pwede kayong manood ng Korean concerts sa TV nila. Full production numbers talaga and the hosts have chenelyn sa mga microphones nila! Bongga talaga!

Two: pwde kayong manghingi ng post-it notes and manghiram ng coloring materials! Dito pwede ninyo ilabas ang creativity nyo na walang makiki-alam! Pagandahan talaga ang activity na ito na pwede ninyong ipagyabang sa susunod na balik ninyo!


Try nyo nga hanapin to sa boung store! GO NA! :) 



The Awesome Threesome na nakaubos na maraming pagkain nung gabing yun!
Thanks Ron and Ate Joyce! :) 
So, sana you would visit the place and have some good chicken! :) 

Overall, heto ang score nila sa akin (0-5 scoring):

Place:   4
Price:    3
Food:    4

TOTAL AVERAGE: 3.67 :) 

GO AND TRY IT YOURSELF GUYS and ENJOY!

What sucks?

i woke up today feeling extremely ambivalent and all i was thinking of is that "my life sucks". From the moment i thought i have a good social atmosphere, everything falls into pieces like a ceramic tea pot which doesn't actually make a good connection but i thought if putting it in anyway.  

Back in high school during my senior year, my classmates connived and placed me in the "funny chair" for weeks. I didn't know it until it was time for our Christmas Party. Up to this day, I still don't know why they did that to me. I know i was sincere and I was true to being friends with them but everything was just a show to them. I really don't think about it much it somehow that certain part of my life is just a gap that connects my childhood and adolescent stage. 

Relating to the present, I think I was a victim of bullying. And even if I think I survived it, the gap still is empty. You know that feeling when you think you have matured but you still don't feel like one. I mean, I'm 25 but I still think about kid stuff. I know it's right to get connected with your inner child but i feel helpless. 

My friends say that I'm strong and I find it flattering for people to describe me as one. But for me, being strong is a double edged knife: it seems to repel everything. And being strong SUCKS. 

When you are strong, people don't get to ask you for things you can't do easily. 
When you are strong, you don't please people to the extent that you sacrifice yourself and what you want. 
When you are strong, you don't feel pissed off at things that you don't have control in. 
When you are strong, you don't feel alone.
When you are strong, you don't smile and feel as if you are not hurt.
When you are strong, you feel nothing will ever bring you down.
When you are strong, you will always follow what your heart and mind tells you.
When you are strong, you will never make blogs like this that spread all the shit you feel inside because it doesn't make sense at all.


It sucks being strong. 

Is this the end?

Ive always dreamt to have someone who is proud of me; who understands why i am like this; a person that brings the best in me and accepts ...
