As food enthusiasts, one thing that excites us so much is when we see on social media openings of restaurants and food parks. Everytime we see that there is some new restaurants opening in Cebu, if we have the time and chance, we would really visit the place and see for ourselves.
Just recently, there is a new Korean Restaurant that just opened in the heart of CEBU IT PARK which is located in the Calyx Building just beside Eastwest Bank called YAMICHAN KOREAN RESTAURANT.
I used to work in Cebu IT Park for a few years before I entered the world of DEPED. My recent employment was here at the Filinvest Building which is the building just across the Calyx Building where this new Korean restaurant is situated.
When I used to work here before, this area beside East West Bank was empty. And the area next to the new Korean Restaurant, Yamichan which is now Yogurt House used to be a milk ta shop.
We were so excited to try it out here so we did. We came to the place at around 7:00 in the evening for dinner time but we arrived and saw a long line of people waiting to get it in. This is what the place looks like from the outside.

There are a lot of people falling in line waiting for their turn, you can see students hanging out with their classmates, employees eating out with their colleagues or you can simply see family members enjoying a meal with their loved ones.
As for me, I value time so much and eating out is something I love to do with my loved ones. It is a form of bond wherein you can get to try out new foods and go to new places. Something to add to our memorybanks.
When you visit here in Yamichan Koren Resturant make sure to have your names listed first because falling in line here without your names getting listed has no sense because you will not be entertained.
Once your names will be listed, then you can fall in line and wait for your turn to be called so you can then check-in. You must have patience because some diners really eat slow and they also chitchat a lot which makes them finish their meals a lot longer.
For the full prices, you may visit their social media pages since I was not able to take note of the other options. All I knew was that they offer unlimited samgyupsal for ₱599.00 per head.
It is understood that this was during evening, were people would really flock for dinner. So if you are planning to dine in here you should come earlier so that you can get your spot.
Once you arrive, a personnel in charge of listing the names of diners will entertain you. They will list your names to know whoever comes first than the others. To avoid people from overtaking.
We waited an hour before we checked in at exactly 8:00 in the evening, we got in. We tried their unlimited samgyupsal for ₱599.00 per head with unlimited pork, beef, and unlimited side dishes. They only serve water. There is no unlimited iced tea like other samgyupsal places. We bought our own drinks.
Trivia: I am such a fan of eating samgyupsal but I do not care about the names of what I am eating (lol) . As long as it tastes good, I will eat it. The name does not matter that much to me. I hardly can remember names of my students, how much more Korean names.
Everything you have seen in the photos above are unlimited. You can ask for it as frequent as you can. They just have a time limit of two hours per meal. You can eat as much as you can and as many as you can as long as it is within their two-hour limit.
Good food is best shared with good company. I came here with my partner, my cousin, and her partner too. All of us are food enthusiasts and we really love to try out newly opened restaurants as long as we have the time and chance to do so.
We are living in the northern part of Cebu which is three to four hours of travel before we can reach Cebu City proper or places like these, Cebu IT PARK which is located in Lahug, Cebu City. But for the love of food, we traveled all the way from our province going here to the city to enjoy good food.
After our dinner, we grabbed some yogurt from YOGURT HOUSE which prices and flavors are posted on my previous blog.
There are a lot of yogurt stores present today but let me share you some recommendations. I love the yogurt from YOGURT HOUSE and also from LLAOLLAO. These are my top two favorite yogurt houses.
Since we are in CEBU IT Park area, there is no LLAOLLAO here. Rather, there is YOGURT HOUSE. You might want to try their yogurt here, with biscoff sauce and any fruits and toppers you want. The sweet biscoff sauce is a perfect match to the soury taste of yogurt. I love mine with strawberries and Muscat. I also love to add mixed nuts.
It was such a great night and we were able to eat all the foods that we craved that are not available in our province.
As a previous employee here in the city, I really miss the city life. Being able to eat whatever you want to, and go to places you want to go to. The city definitely has everything. We have our own motorcycle also so we can also go to places that we want without commuting.
That is why, every once in a while, we visit the city just for leisure. Then we eat all the foods we want that our unavailable in the area where we are currently residing now.
Food is best shared with people close to you, because when having meals, you share good stories and fond memories and it is a fun thing to do every once in a while.
I can say, this is one of the perks of being a working adult. You can go wherever you want to, eat whatever you want to. I may not have the highest paying job as of the moment, but it can suffice my wants and cravings. With that, I am more than happy and contented.
We definitely could not wait to try new restaurants which will open soonest. We are updated on social media with what is the latest happenings here in Cebu City. Tuburan to Cebu is just one drive away.
To good food and good company! Ciao!♡
It seems that you really had a good meal. Choosing a nice samgyup store is the best plus paired with yogurt topped with fresh fruits are just perfect. I hope I can visit that one soon.
We did! I really love to go on samgyup dates with my partner and my cousins. We enjoy our time talking about so much while enjoying the unlimited samg. You should try here also!😊
Thank you for sharing this new place, I'll add this on my lists 😍
You're welcome! You definitely should!🤍
