    Our experience at Mr. Kimbob SM City Fairview


    Whenever Mommy Khris and I are doing groceries at SM City Fairview, we would usually eat at Mr. Kimbob if we want something quick, delicious, affordable, and healthy.

    I understand that some people have had an unpleasant experience in some Mr. Kimbob branches but I’m happy to share that we’ve had a consistently good experience in its SM City Fairview outlet. The service and the quality of the food remain noteworthy.

    What we would usually order at Mr. Kimbob is the Double Meat Bibimbob (P149). This is our favorite because the serving of the meat is satisfactory and the vegetable sidings are always in their best condition. The food is flavorful but it is still customary for the servers to hand in a tube of Mr. Kimbob’s special sauce for every order of the Bibimbob.

    Aside from the Bibimbob, I’ve also tried the Spicy Squid and the Meat Lover’s meals. I found the Spicy Squid to be delicious with just the right amount of kick but I hope the servings would be bigger. 

    As for the meat lover’s meal, it was also tasty but I found it boring because of the lack of colors since it only came with a kimchi side dish and nothing else. I’d always go back to the Bibimbob for the good balance of meat and vegetables.
