Satisfy your 'K-ravings' with these 2 Korean subway-inspired food spots


Want to have a taste of Korean food without flying to Korea?

If you're looking for a place where you can satisfy your cravings and give you the Hallyu feels, then "IRL" host Gabbi Garcia got you!

In an episode of "IRL," Gabbi and her guest, Myrtle Sarrosa, checked out two Korean subway-inspired food spots.

Busan PH Food Truck

Inspired by the hit movie "Train to Busan," this food spot allows its customers to enjoy al fresco dining while munching on Korean street food.

According to Marwin Marasigan, the owner, he wanted people to taste authentic Korean food without letting them go beyond their budgets.

"Gusto kong iparating sa tao na parang sasakay ka sa train then dadalhin namin kayo sa Korea," he said.

Their food ranges from P60 to P200 and it includes various street food favorites including tteokbokki with cheese, jumeokbap, gimbap, samgyupsal, and ramen. 

This spot in Silang, Cavite has already captured the hearts of many with its good food and ambiance.

"'Di namin ineexpect na first day palang, bigla kaming nag-hit kaya sobrang nakakagulat," Marwin said.

Seoul Train Korean BBQ

Meanwhile, this restaurant in Quezon City is owned by Happee Sy, who has brought various Korean artists in the country for concerts.

The place is inspired by her love for riding trains and of course, Korean music and artists.

"Love na love ko [sumakay] ng train kaya Seoul Train," she said.

She added that every corner of the restaurant has a story, as almost everyone in the team has the same love for K-pop as she does.

Aside from serving authentic Korean meat with side dishes, the restaurant also has a mini mall that sells legitimate K-pop merchandise including light sticks and albums. —Franchesca Viernes/MGP, GMA News
