Modeum Jeon

1.5

at Kaya

-Bel Air, Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines-

with Uncle CS

Kaya is a Korean restaurant.  Same kind of little-bit-of-everything menu.  Considered a landmark, one of the oldest Korean joints in town.

The occasion was my uncle’s birthday.  Joining the bash were a friend of his and a pair of employees from his business.  Yay.

The food was strictly mediocre.  Nothing outright terrible per se, but poorly prepared/presented across the board.  The assorted (“modeum”) jeon was the least crappiest dish of the meal.  After Maru, this was the second worst representation of Korean food that I’ve had in the Philippines thus far.
