The best Bbq experience in New Malden. They use real charcoal so you get an authentic bbq taste. Built in rotiserrie with offereings of duck, beef, pork. Nice sauces too.
The owner is really hands on. He was very patient in teaching us how to do the bbq and was willing to do it for us if we wanted to! It is a great experience as it lets you have fun without burning your face. The meat were easy to get off of the skewers as the there is a cleverly designed tray holder that makes the job easy.
They have just rennovated the restaurant and it is more inviting than the previous restaurant.
They have also added new appetizers in the usual range of £5 upwards. BBQ we had was just £49 which included I think 10 skewers. Also includes side dish of vegestables and could easily feed a group of 3 to 4. You just have to order rice on too which was a few quid.
Overall, I prefer the real charcola over the butane gas fuelled BbQ in New Malden. Give it a try folks! -

Little family run Korean restaurant, as you walk in there's a little area with about 4 tables, each one with a BBQ grill in the middle if the table. As you venture further in the rest of the restaurant is divided up into serveral little rooms seating between 6-10 people.
We ordered a selection of bulgogi BBQ beef rib, tongue, prawns, chicken & belly of pork, served with lettuce wraps & spring onion. The meal was served with the obligatory sides, kimchee, soya beans, pickled greens, soya bean paste, sesame dip & chillies. The kids had a soup noodle with dumplings.
The waitress was friendly & swiftly cooked our meats on the two BBQ grills in the table. The food was good but didn't blow me away, the hotpot selection caught my eye...maybe next time.
I'll give this place a solid 3.5stars. -

Not entirely sure if it's thanks to keen local competition, but their new weekday menu is proving to be a cost effective lunch option.
Side dishes include a generous serving of what appears to be home prepared kimchi, half-sliced marinated boiled eggs, kimchi raddish, bean sprouts and pan-fried bean cake.
The blood sausage soup is also swimming with chunks of pork belly and kidney with perilla seeds, chopped spring onions, chives and chili a' plenty. Their kimchi chigae is spicy in the right places, perfect for curbing a creeping cold. At 5.99 a pop, it's certainly a deal.
Now, if they can just keep that malfunctioning property alarm under control.
I'd swing by again the next time I find myself in Surrey.
