A few months ago, I was in the Bonifacio Global City area when my friend Sumi called me inviting me to go to join them at Koko Buri at Forum South Global.
I usually google about restaurants prior to visiting them so I have an idea about what food they are offering. But since this was an impromptu spur of the moment thing, I didn't know what to expect.
I was surprised that it occupied a large area and the interior were really grand.
It caters to both big and small groups with private function rooms even.
Food
Appetizers
Only when I saw the Chicken Popcorns on the table did I realize that it served Korean Fried Chicken. These little poppers were fun to eat.
But, I enjoyed the superb crunchy coating and softness of the fish meat of the Dori Dori more the the former.
Chicken Meal (served with rice and salad)
They offer the Chicken Meals in two sizes: lunch and dinner (bigger). We liked the crispy and the juiciness of the Chili Garlic Chicken but found the spiciness inadequate especially when the menu indicated it with a spicy level of 3 chillies.
Pasta
The Fettucci di Koko Buri is a hit amongst us. I've never had healthy asparagus cream pasta this good!
Pizza
The Primavera is a fully-loaded crispy thin crusted pizza with ground beef and pork, green and red bell peepers, mushroom, onions and olives.
Sizzling Pots
The Nagasaki Champon is a really hot pot... hot meaning spicy! =) It was even spicier that the Chili Garlic Chicken. It's a huge bowlful that's good for 6-8 persons. It has five kinds of seafoods: squid, clams, mussels, alimasag (tiny crab) and shrimps. It also has bean sprouts, cabbage, scallions and udon noodles so its really heavy on the tummy. As a spicy lover, I loved this!
Beverages
The Natural Carrot and Apple Slush was too light for my liking... It would be better if it had more carrots.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Koko Buri is an upscale place for Korean Fried Chicken and more. The price is quite reasonable given its impressive ambiance. They also serve imported beers and wines that perfectly soothes its fanciness.
