Le Grand ChefIf you love food, especially Korean food, then this is a movie that you should not miss. Obviously the movie's central theme revolves around food but it's not the only ingredient that makes this movie work. A witty and funny storyline with a sprinkling of heartfelt stories makes this one sumptuous feast for the mind.

After being so inspired by the movie, we went to hunt around for some Korean food. Our hunt brought us to Nul Bom Korean restaurant at Telok Ayer Street. It's quite a quaint little place, not flashy at all. I think it's probably as authentic as can be because - apart from the korean waitress, there were these four korean guys - most likely businessmen having dinner after their golf game (because of the huge golf bags) - who obviously had a lot of eat and quite obviously a little drunk too.
As you can see, the food is really very good - at least as far as I can tell. The Bi bim-ba is the best so far I've had in S'pore. The ginseng chicken broth was excellent - the chicken was so tender that it literally melts from the bone. The omelette had squid, vegetables, chili and prawns pan-fried to golden crispy perfection. The side-dishes of kim chi were very yummy too. It was a rather pricey dinner but well worth it.
