Kimstaurant Siargao

Kimstaurant is General Luna's Korean restaurant, the only one on the island doing all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ, hot pot, and homemade kimchi under one roof. For travellers a week into island food and craving Korean with some intensity, this is the address.

The all-you-can-eat format is the right call for Korean BBQ, an experience built on volume and variety, grilling different cuts at the table over a long, sociable meal. A fixed price removes the mental arithmetic that makes shared-plate dining less relaxed. The homemade kimchi stands out in particular, made on-site rather than bought in, which shows in the quality and depth of fermentation.

Go with four or more people for the full experience, since the format is built for groups, and order the sampler set first to see the full range of cuts before committing to repeats.
