Premiere The Samgyupsal
Who would say no to unli-meat, yes? Our last pick is probably the most popular go-to dine-in experience for every Filipino. Samgyupsal can keep that spot in our hearts for satisfying our meat cravings. But, this particular Premiere The Samgyupsal branch in Tomas Morato does it best! Their Bulgogi meat is rightfully their most popular, thanks to its uniquely sweet taste. Dip it into their cheese sauce, and you’ll get a match made in heaven.
