Whats up everybody! 안녕하세요! We’re proud to current our particular sequence on Halal makan locations we visited throughout our current journey to Seoul! This spherical – The Halal Guys Korea 더 할랄가이즈 코리아!

We had been extraordinarily honoured to be invited by the Korea Tourism Group (Malaysia) to go to South Korea once more (we went to Busan and Jeju the final time) and likewise be part of the launch of Halal Restaurant Week Korea 2019! Extra details about that on the finish of the put up so let’s begin on the makan no – 나 배고파!!

(BTW – head right down to our Instagram profile web page and watch all of the IG Tales from the journey!)

The Halal Guys is known. They’ve gained fairly a following since their humble beginnings within the 90s out of a meals truck. Right this moment, they’re obtainable at places worldwide together with the USA, UK, Indonesia and South Korea!

To be trustworthy, I’d be dying to attempt The Halal Guys and their well-known Gyros for a very long time. I believed that my first (and closest) probability would in all probability be at their outlet in Jakarta. However little did I do know, my probability would come at, of all locations, Seoul!

Nicely, there was no higher time than now 😀

So what precisely is a Gyro? Nicely, it’s kinda just like the Greek model of a Kebab. It’s mainly beef lah LOL 😛 At The Halal Guys Korea, they’re serving up in a few methods. You may take pleasure in your meat (both beef gyro/hen) in one in every of their Platters or a Gyro Sandwich (aka Wrap).

No matter you select, it’s a MUST to have their well-known (secret) ingredient – the WHITE SAUCE! It’s kinda exhausting to pinpoint what the precise flavour of this sauce will be categorized as.. however I’m gonna say it’s kinda like a creamy garlic sauce. Backside line – it’s SEDAP GILER and goes completely with the Gyros!

The Platter comes with lettuce and tomatoes plus some rice too. High that every one off with a beneficiant serving of meat – select Beef Gyro or Rooster or a Mixture of each – plus some Pita bread too. In case you’re feeling further hungry, you may add a Falafel or two on the facet 😛

Sandwiches (just about Wraps lah) are additionally a sensible choice. Loads of meaty goodness in a Pita wrap and also you’re all set from some good eatin’ lah! The legend of The Halal Guys!

However regardless of the case, the White Sauce is a MUST HAVE (I feel I’ve been repeating this) and in case you like a contact of spicy, get a number of the Purple Sauce too. Don’t underestimate that Purple Sauce okay.. it’s really bought fairly a kick to it! I imply, it’s fairly scorching lah and positively provides to the flavour of the dish.

There’s one thing particular on the menu that’s obtainable ONLY at their Seoul branches. They actually name it ‘Secret Fries’ (I’m not kidding!) and it’s the bomb!

You gained’t discover it on the menu however you may need the workers ask you in case you’d wish to attempt a serving. The right reply to that will be “YES PLEASE!” 😛 It’s a heap of fries with some Beef Gyro (or Rooster) piled on prime and completed off with White Sauce, Purple Sauce and BBQ Sauce!

And don’t overlook – this can be a Seoul particular so don’t miss out!

Like I stated, I didn’t suppose my first The Halal Guys expertise could be in Seoul… however I’m glad it was and I can’t wait til the following time 😀

A Fast Phrase About Halal Meals In South Korea

That is to be anticipated lah I assume particularly the place the Halal meals scene continues to be creating and relying on which a part of South Korea you’re visiting.

The 4 classes are;

• Halal-certified (most secure because the eatery is licensed Halal by the Korea Muslim Federation)
• Self-certified (mainly means eatery is Muslim-owned)

It might appear difficult with 4 classes however as at all times, we will simplify it. Do your due diligence and don’t be afraid to #AskTheQuestion particularly because you’re travelling. Halal is a person accountability so get the data and make an knowledgeable choice. Search for these labels on the door. If there may be any doubt in any respect, greatest to offer it a miss
