Chile | Check-In at the Legendary "Three-Star" Korean Restaurant 🔥

Just arrived in Chile and celebrated my boss’s birthday at Gaon Restaurant Coreano – a wildly popular spot praised as the "Samsung canteen" of Korean cuisine here. Verdict? Authentic flavors and packed tables! 📍 Address: Av. Manquehue Sur 674, Las Condes, Región Metropolitana 🍽️ Must-Order Dishes 1️⃣ Grilled Pork Belly (Samgyeopsal): Why: Perfectly marinated, crispy outside, juicy inside. Wrap in lettuce for the full experience – chef’s kiss! 2️⃣ Cheesy Tteokbokki (Spicy Rice Cakes): Pro tip: Ask for extra cheese (it’s not default)! The gooey melt takes this classic to the next level. 3️⃣ Beef Soup/Stew : Move over rice: The rich broth had me devouring a whole bowl of steamed rice. Comfort in a pot! 4️⃣ Abalone Sashimi: Fresh crunch: Sliced thin with wasabi soy sauce – sweet and punchy. Only downside? Their soy sauce was way too salty. 5️⃣ Korean Marinated Raw Crab (Ganjang Gejang): Authentic but…: Sauce nailed it, but the crab texture felt soft (maybe over-marinated?). Still worth trying! Final Thoughts: A taste of Seoul in Santiago – perfect for homesick Koreans or adventurous foodies. Book ahead – it’s always buzzing! #ChileTravel #KoreanFoodHeaven #SantiagoEats #ChileanAdventures #FoodieInChile #SeoulInSantiago #CherryOnTopChile
