#1. District 7, Phu My Hung Korean BBQ Butoomac Review
Korean BBQ restaurant Butoomac, famous for its beef ribs, operates stores in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh, Hai Phong, Bac Ninh, and Phu Tho, and the restaurant I visited that day is in Ho Chi Minh City and is located in an alley with the Hung Vuoung 2 apartment in Phu My Hung, District 7. It's a great place to have a drink with beef ribs, and it's a very attractive restaurant that also serves more than ten delicious side dishes, including oyster kimchi, seafood clam stew, and radish water kimchi.
To allow non-smokers to dine in a comfortable environment without the smell of cigarette smoke, the first floor of the store is divided into non-smoking sections and the second floor is separated into smoking sections. On a Saturday evening, there was a smoker in the group, so we reserved a table on the second floor. It is difficult to get a seat on weekend evenings without a reservation, so it is recommended to make a reservation at least a few hours before your visit.
The biggest difference between Buttumak and other Korean restaurants is the high quality and variety of basic side dishes. More than ten side dishes are served, including green onion pancakes, soy sauce braised quail eggs, oyster kimchi, spicy raw crab, stir-fried sausage and vegetables, stir-fried potato, Korean blood sausage, ox blood soup, steamed eggs, various types of pickles, salted fish, and ssam.
Among the various side dishes, seafood clam stew, radish water kimchi, and oyster kimchi suited my taste the best. As the side dishes are diverse and high quality, some cannot be refilled, but most are refillable. The signboard clearly states that unlimited refills for the seafood clam stew with spicy and clean broth are available.
First, I ordered 4 servings(800g) of seasoned beef ribs. The staff showed us raw ribs mixed with seasoning. The portion was generous and the quality of the meat looked good. You can choose whether to grill the meat in the kitchen or at the table. If you don't want the smell of grilling meat on your clothes, it's better to ask the kitchen to cook it for you.
Seasoned beef ribs are grilled well, cut into bite-sized pieces, and served to the table in several times. The moderately soft and chewy rib meat with a good sweet and salty seasoning is a great accompaniment to soju.
While we were in the middle of our meal, the owner served us live octopus. If you eat the chewy live octopus dipped in sesame oil with salt and vinegared red pepper paste, this is also a food that goes really well with soju. The variety of side dishes is extensive, and they even provide service food along the way, so I can't help but visit Butoomac.
#2. Korean BBQ Butoomac Menu
Butoomac is a restaurant famous for its delicious beef ribs and seasoned beef ribs. It serves several grilled menu items such as back ribs, bottom sirloin, LA ribs, and pork belly, as well as snacks such as oden soup, tofu kimchi, fermented skate and pork with kimchi, and meals such as cold noodles, soft tofu stew, and pork soup. The menu prices are a bit cheaper than other Korean restaurants, making it a great restaurant for a cost-effective meal and drink.
I visited with two friends on a Saturday evening and ordered the food below.
Seasoned beef ribs for 4 servings(800g): 1,490,000VND
Seasoned beef ribs for 2 servings(300g): 690,000VND
Jinro Soju: 130,000VND x 2 EA = 260,000VND
Tiger Beer: 50,000VND x 5 EA = 250,000VND
The total came to 2,690,000VND, which is not a bad amount considering we ate our fill of seasoned beef ribs. Butoomac is a great place in Ho Chi Minh City to have a drink with beef ribs. It is a very attractive restaurant that also serves more than ten delicious side dishes, including oyster kimchi, green onion pancakes, spicy raw crab, seafood clam stew, and radish water kimchi.
