Closed: All4U Unlimited Grill & Shabu Shabu: Family Samgyupsal Mukbang Practice (SM Manila)

Even with the COVID pandemic and some quarrantine measures in place, we noticed that there are two Korean craze that are still at an all time high in terms of popularity: (1) Samgyupsal and (2) Mukbang.  Just to join the bandwagon, we decided to try out All4U Unlimited Grill & Shabu Shabu and see if we could do it too.

Brief Info on Mukbang

So what exactly is Mukbang about?  Mukbang is a portmanteau word that comes from combining two (2) partial Korean words: (1) muk-ja which means eating and (2) bang-song which mean broadcast.

Thus, Mukbang is a Korean trend that started in 2010 where the Broadcast Jockey (BJ) (Korea's term for vlogger) consumes a lot of food in front of an online audiovisual broadcast.

As the popularity of Mukbang is still growing, some BJs are even incorporating ASMR which stands for autonomous sensory meridian response into their style of broadcast.

Food

So we were all very excited to see if we have a potential in riding this Mukbang craze.

Before we begin, we were asked for our preferred broth.  The choices were:
1. Organic Shabu-shabu
2. Kimchi soup
3. Bulgogi soup
4. Fish cake soup
 
We chose the Organic Shabu-shabu in order to appreciate the flavor of our desired meats.  

As soon as we made our broth option, we were each given the complimentary and refillable bowl of rice and a glass of iced tea.   

There's also are also refillable instant Korean ramen, lettuce and three (3) Kinds of Banchan (Korean Side Dishes).

The Choices of Dishes were:

1. Fresh Shrimp
2. Premium beef
3. Pork belly
4. Korean Fish Cake
5. Marinated Chicken
 
You can order one tray of each at a time.
At the end of the meal, we also claimed our free Melona.
