In a time when we hear a lot of stories about losses and failures due to the coronavirus, it’s always so inspiring to know that there are ideas, passion projects, and businesses that were born and are thriving in the midst of this pandemic.
The ‘new normal’ way of living has taught businesses to adapt via going digital, offering essential goods and services, and giving people delivery options for their safety.
Ken Gozun and his sister, Katherine, did all that. After losing his job in Manila, Ken went back to his hometown, Sto. Tomas, Pampanga. He couldn’t just sit and wait for the lockdown to end because they have financial needs that have to be met. Circumstances led him to build a business out of their family’s love for Korean barbecue and shabu-shabu and the rising demand for food delivery services especially since all restaurants were mandated to close at that time.
After careful planning, strategizing, curating their menu, and costing, they launched the first-ever samgyeopsal delivery service in Pampanga — Samgyeop On-The-Go Korean BBQ and Shabu-Shabu.
Korean barbecue is undeniably a crowd favorite not just because of its taste and all the mouth-watering side dishes and sauces but also diners can get to see it cooked right in front of them.
Eating Korean barbecue is not just something diners do but something they experience and best shared with loved ones. The same goes with shabu shabu.
The restaurant has branches in 556 Lagundi Highway, Mexico, Pampanga and Unit D, Eastwalk Commercial Center, Sto. Tomas, Pampanga.
