Gen Korea BBQ House x Manila

California’s famous Gen Korean BBQ House is now open and ready to serve Filipino diners.

The popular all-you-can-eat restaurant chain, which has twenty one branches across the United States, is a favorite among Filipino-Americans and Filipino tourists. So to have it right here in Philippine shores is a real treat for those who wish to experience, or re-visit, Gen.

Gen’s key to success is its premium all-you-can-eat and order-all-you-can style that doesn’t scrimp on quality, giving the customers amazing value. The branch here in the Philippines will be no different, according to David Ghim, Vice President of Operations of Gen Korean BBQ House.

“Everything that people knew and loved, and will know and love about it [Gen Korean BBQ House] is all here,” Ghim enthused. “All the meat is sourced directly from the same suppliers that provide top-quality premium meat to the other branches in the US,” he continued.

The aforementioned premium meats are the highlight of the Gen dining experience. Their menu features over 30 different selections of premium meat— from beef, chicken, pork, and locally sourced fresh seafood. Diners also have the choice to order deliciously marinated meat, with a selection of different flavor profiles and ingredients from all around the world. One of their biggest best-sellers is the beef brisket, which is served fresh and beautifully presented in marbled pink rolls. Another item that Pinoys will surely love is the pork belly (liempo, in local parlance) that comes in different flavors, namely smoked garlic, cajun, and red-wine infused.

Ghim also took pride in the steps they’ve taken making sure that Manila can provide the authen-tic Gen experience. “We’ll be bringing over the fan-favorites from the US so everyone in the Philippines can experience them without having to book a flight,” Ghim explained.

Right when diners take a seat at Gen Korean BBQ House, amongst the chic interiors, diners are immediately served a colorful array of banchan (traditional Korean side dishes). What makes each branch so successful aside from their premium meats is their exemplary service. Waitstaff and managers are very quick when attending to customers’ needs and do it all with a smile on their faces .

“The GEN experience is something that beings the moment you walk through the doors. You’re greeted with the classic blue lights, energetic music, and our friendly servers. We pride ourselves on our premium meats and seafood, and of course our amazing service.” explains David Ghim, who is in Manila to make sure everything is running smoothly.

Aside from being the first Gen branch outside of the US, it is also touted to be the largest with a 500-person seating capacity.

Gen Korean BBQ: The Gen-uine Choice for All Occasions

If there's something Filipinos know how to do, it's celebrate. As a culture, we love going out, spending time with family and friends, and having a good time. In spite of this, most gatherings seem to follow a clumsy cycle: after rounding up the group and setting a time and date, things come to a screeching halt when deciding where to eat.  

Most of us have experienced those long (and sometimes strenuous) discussions about choosing the best place. This is perfectly understandable, since there are numerous things to consider when dining out: the place has to serve good food, have reasonable prices, good ambiance, and excellent service.
 
This is precisely the reason why countless Filipinos are eagerly anticipating the arrival of Gen Korean BBQ House in the Philippines. This new restaurant concept from the United States has amassed enviable reviews for providing the perfect setting for a great time. The Manila branch will be the brand’s first ever international location, and is set to open in the second quarter of the year.

Gen Korean BBQ is an All-You-Can-Eat style KBBQ restaurant that serves premium-quality meat at affordable prices. Because of this, it has quickly become one of the most successful Korean BBQ spots in California, with a constant line of fervent diners waiting for their turn to enjoy the scrumptious fare. Gen Korean BBQ’s loyal customers have also inadvertently become its informal ambassadors, since those who eat at the establishment often spread the word about their positive experiences.

Gen Korean BBQ House in Manila will faithfully adapt its foreign elements, which means large seating areas, hip music, chic interiors, and stylish lights. “The local team worked very closely with our US counterparts to bring the whole Gen vibe and experience to the Philippines,” explained Ted Lee, Gen’s Marketing Head for Philippine Operations. “When you walk into the Manila branch – with the music, the ambiance, the lights -- it will feel like you’ve stepped into any one of our West Coast locations,” he added.

“We want Gen to be the first place Filipinos think of when going out to eat, especially when looking for a place they can bring lots of friends and family to celebrate or just hang out,” Lee emphasized. Indeed, at a time when an entire array of restaurants are competing for the attention and approval of consumers, Gen Korean BBQ aims to sail ahead and become the go-to place for great food at great prices. “All it takes is one visit, and you’ll definitely place Gen Korean BBQ at the top of the venue list for gatherings. It’s really that good,” he concluded.
