Seoul Garden has always been one of the go-to spots for halal Korean grill in Singapore. With a variety of juicy marinated meats and an all-you-can-eat buffet over the past 3 decades, it's the perfect place to have a meal with your loved ones. But just last week, the chain announced that it will be transforming from its buffet concept to an all-new ala carte menu. If you're planning to dine in at Seoul Garden, here's what you need to know and what you can expect from its new menu.
Seoul Garden Singapore moves to an a la carte menu
Challenges due to Covid-19
Seoul Garden started its all-new a la carte menu on 19 August 2021. In a media release, the chain said that they have taken the bold step due to challenges faced in the F&B industry in the past 18 months due to the pandemic. The decision was also due to considerations such as safe management measures (SMMs) and the evolving Covid-19 situation.

Doing its part for the environment and being more sustainable
Besides Covid-19, Seoul Garden is also joining the effort to reduce and eventually eradicate food waste in the world and in Singapore. The chain said that buffet dining does not resonate with the ethical, environmental and social concerns of a growing group of socially conscious diners. Hence, by going ala carte, it'll be a more sustainable way for Seoul Garden to achieve zero food waste in the long run.
