[Food recommendation] Hackethals, Berlin, Germany

Address: Pflugstr. 11, 10115 Berlin, Germany

Price: below 10 euros for the dish, and the beer was less than 5 euros

Website: http://www.hackethals.de/, do email in a few days in advance to book. the restaurant was full house soon after we sat down. If not, you can try your luck by being there earlier than the opening hours. 

Review of Hackethals: The house beer was one of its kind. It was so nice! I tried many other beers but nothing matched theirs. I love their portobello mushroom pork chop as well,  it was so tender and complimented their beer very well! High recommended! I would visit this restaurant if i goes Berlin again. The son of the owner spoke English, you can ask him to do recommendations (the menu was in German).

[Food recommendation] Gold Mine Restaurant, Bayswater, London, United Kingdom

Address: 102 Queensway, London W2 3RR

Price:  A plate of duck rice costs 8.50 pounds

Review: I don't usually eat skin, but the skin was so good that i just scrapped off the fats and eat it. the meat was also very tender, and the highlight was the sauce. Being Asian, I have eaten a lot of duck rice, but this one still wowed me. (p.s. Just order the duck rice will do, the pork was normal).

[Food recommendation] The Golden Hind, Marylebone, London, United Kingdom

Price: around $15-$20SGD

Address: 73 Marylebone Lane, London W1U 2PN

Review: We had our dinner at the famous restaurant “The Golden Hind”. The fish and chips were SUPERB. It was a real fish (you can choose what fish you want), and the meat was very tender and juicy. The restaurant owner came to chat with us. He was very surprised that we spoke good English. And after he found out we were from Singapore, he identified us as a Commonwealth country and stated that many of his customers were Singaporeans J

I ordered Haddock (i think).

(i can't remember what my friend ordered, either Plaice or Halibut)

It is very healthy, tasty and i like the side dishes. one of them is even pork (tasted a lot like braised pork rib)!

It has franchise all over Seoul.

[Food recommendation] Me Ijeu Wellbeing Korean Restaurant, Mazeland, Jeju, South Korea

It. Was. The. Nicest. Bibimbap. In. My. Life.

It was a buffet style restaurant located inside Mazeland, where you can mix and match what Korean cuisine you want to eat (bibimbap - vegetarian or non-vegetarian, BBQ wrap...etc.). There's lots of different types of vegetable, which i've never seen before but it's super nice.

Most people there are Koreans, it's like a canteen style of restaurant that can accommodate hundreds (?) of people. After you're done with your meal, you are required to clean up after yourself and get a hot cup of beneficial tea on your way out.

See this blog for more description and photos of the restaurant. i didn't think of taking any photos in the restaurant.
