Never knew Bras Basah Complex housed hidden gems for dining until we came across Ssak3 Korean BBQ, located just above Jack’s Place.
Run by a Korean chef with over 30 years of culinary experience, this spacious restaurant seats more than 120 guests, making it ideal not just for casual dining, but also for events, parties, and corporate gatherings.

We opted for the Happy Family Set, perfect for 5–6 pax. It’s a great-value feast designed for families and groups, featuring generous portions and a wide variety of authentic Korean BBQ.
 |
Menu Book |
The set includes seven kinds of meat, along with comforting sides like Japchae, Steamed Egg, and Army Stew. To round off the meal, diners also get to choose a pancake, either the classic Seafood Spring Onion Pancake or the flavourful Kimchi Pancake.

Starting off, we were greeted with the generous spread of Korean banchan. True to tradition, the variety of small side dishes added both color and flavor to the table. We began nibbling on them while waiting for our Happy Family Set to be prepared, easing into the meal with a taste of authentic Korean culture.

The meat platter was a feast on its own, featuring 150g portions of Beef Skirt, Beef Shortplate, Marinated Beef Short Rib and Pork Jowl, alongside 200g servings of Pork Belly, Marinated Pork Collar, and Marinated Chicken.

Yummy |
Having Korean BBQ here truly made us feel like royalty. The staff skillfully barbecued the different cuts of meat for us, leaving us free to simply relax and chat. The meat was grilled over parchment paper, with excess oil flowing neatly through the gaps of the metal plate into a collection bowl, keeping everything less greasy yet flavourful.

The Japchae was absolutely delicious, springy glass noodles stir-fried with mushrooms, carrots, onions, and zucchini, all coated in a savoury-sweet sauce. The sprinkle of sesame seeds added a nutty aroma that made each bite even more enjoyable. Simple yet comforting, it’s a classic Korean side that never disappoints.

We also had their steamed egg, soft and fluffy with a comforting warmth, the perfect side dish to complete the meal.

Their Army Stew, also known as Budae Jjigae, was hearty and appetizing with its rich, savory broth. I must admit, I’m definitely a sucker for this dish!

We had the Seafood Spring Onion Pancake, which was nicely done, crispy on the edges, soft inside, and served in a big plate just as expected.

For drinks, Ssak3 has a unique system, instead of ordering from the servers, diners can walk up to the vending machine near the entrance to make their purchase.
Overall, I find the environment pleasant, and best of all, CDC vouchers can be used here!
