Where can I find Korean food at Beauty World?
Beauty World Centre: 144 Upper Bukit Timah Road
- Address: 144 Upper Bukit Timah Road, Singapore 588177.
- Access via MRT: Beauty World station, Exit A, walk to the fourth floor (OpenTable (restaurant booking platform)).
- Korean dining floor: Level 4 houses Myung Ga III and Joomak.
Level 4: the Korean dining level
- Myung Ga III: Restaurant-quality Korean food documented by Spring Tomorrow.
- Joomak: Newer specialist at #04-01 focusing on braised dishes.
- Hawker centre: On the same floor.
Both Myung Ga III and Joomak operate on Level 4 of Beauty World Centre. Spring Tomorrow describes Myung Ga III as a restaurant-quality Korean spot on this floor, while Joomak’s address is confirmed as #04-01 by SethLui.com.
WhereCrowded.sg lists Myung Ga III’s telephone number as +65 6835 0877 (WhereCrowded.sg (crowd-checking platform)).
The hawker-centre connection
Myung Ga III sits on the same floor as the Beauty World hawker centre. This means diners can walk from a restaurant meal to a hawker snack without leaving Level 4.
The arrangement is practical: it allows one visit to cover both a full Korean meal and casual sides or desserts, all on the fourth floor.
The implication: Level 4 is a true one-stop Korean dining floor, but knowing the exact unit matters for delivery and booking, especially since Myung Ga III is listed as #04-04 in one review and #04-01 in another.
What are the best Korean restaurants at Beauty World Centre?
Myung Ga III: the established Korean restaurant
- Mul Naengmyeon – $20
- Bulgogi Pajeon – $28
- Samgyetang – $23 (dine-in) / $29.90 (Foodpanda)
- Bossam – $50
Myung Ga III is the name that appears most frequently in roundups. Its draw is a menu that moves beyond Korean BBQ. Foodpanda Singapore (food delivery platform) lists dishes such as gimbap ($14), kimchi jjigae ($25), and boneless short ribs ($49.40 per 150g). WhereCrowded.sg gives its contact number as +65 6835 0877 for reservations.
Joomak: the newer specialist
- Specialty: Korean braised pig’s trotters and Jeju Black pig
- Address: #04-01, Level 4
- Phone discrepancy noted in listings
SethLui.com notes that Joomak centres its menu on Korean braised pig’s trotters and Jeju Black pig, a clear move away from the BBQ-and-stew format of its neighbour. The same source flags a telephone-number discrepancy: +65 6466 7871 is listed in one review, while another listing gives 9082 0074.
Social roundup picks
An Instagram food account highlighted GAON Galbi at $69.90 among top Korean food at Beauty World Centre, but the source does not distinguish whether GAON Galbi is a standalone restaurant or a dish.
For the Beauty World visitor, the choice is less about which floor to visit and more about which style of Korean dining fits the table: the established spread at Myung Ga III or the specialist trotters at Joomak.
Is Beauty World Korean food more than Korean BBQ?
Cold noodles and pancakes
- Mul Naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles) – $20
- Bulgogi Pajeon (bulgogi and green onion pancake) – $28
Myung Ga III’s mul naengmyeon and bulgogi pajeon are among the most-cited dishes outside the BBQ category, per Foodpanda Singapore and Spring Tomorrow.
Ginseng chicken
- Samgyetang (ginseng chicken) – $23 (dine-in) / $29.90 (Foodpanda)
Samgyetang is listed at $23 in a Spring Tomorrow review and at $29.90 on Foodpanda Singapore, highlighting a meaningful difference between dine-in and delivery prices.
Braised pork trotters and Jeju Black pig
- Joomak’s menu centres on these non-BBQ dishes
Joomak’s menu, as described by SethLui.com, focuses on Korean braised pig’s trotters and Jeju Black pig, providing a non-BBQ alternative that is distinct from Myung Ga III’s offerings.
The range across both restaurants confirms that Beauty World’s Korean dining is not limited to BBQ. The menu spans $14 gimbap to $70+ premium cuts, giving groups a genuine choice.
What should you order at Myung Ga III and Joomak?
Myung Ga III menu highlights
- Mul Naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles) – $20
- Bulgogi Pajeon (bulgogi and green onion pancake) – $28
- Samgyetang (ginseng chicken) – $23 (dine-in) / $29.90 (Foodpanda)

Joomak dishes to look for

OpenTable (booking platform) confirms Joomak’s address as 144 Upper Bukit Timah Road, #04-01.
Price anchors
- Budget option: Gimbap at $14 (Foodpanda Singapore)
- Mid-range: Mul Naengmyeon at $20, Bulgogi Pajeon at $28
- Premium: Bossam at $50, GAON Galbi at $69.90
With dishes ranging from $14 to $70, the price anchor is wide, but the quality signals are consistent: this is not hawker-level Korean, it’s restaurant-level. The additional 19% for dine-in is a meaningful factor for budget-conscious groups.
How do you plan a Korean food visit to Beauty World Centre?
Target Level 4
- Navigate to Beauty World Centre: Address is 144 Upper Bukit Timah Road, Singapore 588177. Take Beauty World MRT (Exit A) and follow the signs to Level 4.
- Confirm your restaurant pick: Myung Ga III shares the same floor as the hawker centre. Joomak is at #04-01.
- Call ahead if necessary: Myung Ga III’s phone is +65 6835 0877 (WhereCrowded.sg). Joomak’s listed numbers vary, so a direct walk-in might be safer.
Beauty World Centre is at 144 Upper Bukit Timah Road. It is accessible from Beauty World MRT via Exit A and a walk to the fourth floor, according to OpenTable.
Combine the hawker centre and a Korean meal
Dine-in prices at Myung Ga III exclude the 19% extra, but Foodpanda prices are marked higher to cover delivery. The budget-savvy visitor eats in and adds a hawker dessert without leaving Level 4.
Use the #04-01 address for navigation
- Myung Ga III: #04-01 or #04-04
- Joomak: #04-01
- Tip: Look for signage
Both restaurants share the #04-01 address descriptor in their listings, though Spring Tomorrow’s review documents Myung Ga III at #04-04, while one current listing uses #04-01. First-time visitors should rely on restaurant signage rather than the unit number alone.
The visit is simple to execute, but small details like unit numbers and phone numbers need double-checking before you go.
Upsides
- Breadth of Korean dishes beyond BBQ: cold noodles, ginseng chicken, braised trotters.
- Hawker-centre prices for snacks on the same floor, allowing casual-to-formal dining in one visit.
- Both restaurants serve fresh, restaurant-quality dishes documented by multiple local food sources.
Downsides
- Dine-in prices are $20+ before the additional 19% service charge and GST.
- Unit number and phone number discrepancies can cause confusion for first-time visitors.
- No Korean rice cake dishes confirmed on any reviewed menu.
How to plan your visit: a step-by-step guide
- Set your budget — between $14 (gimbap) and $70 (premium BBQ), plus 19% for dine-in at Myung Ga III.
- Choose your style — classic banchan and cold noodles at Myung Ga III, or braised trotters at Joomak.
- Navigate to Level 4 using the address 144 Upper Bukit Timah Road, Singapore 588177.
- Call ahead — Myung Ga III’s phone number is +65 6835 0877 (WhereCrowded.sg). Joomak’s numbers vary, so a walk-in may be simpler.
- Save room for the hawker centre — it shares the same floor as Myung Ga III.
The pattern: the same steps apply whether you are going for Myung Ga III’s cold noodles or Joomak’s braised trotters — only the reservation and budget call differ.

The pattern: each reviewer highlights a different reason to visit — noodles and pancakes, braised trotters, or the hawker-centre convenience.
Beauty World Centre’s Level 4 is a legitimate Korean dining cluster, but visitors should enter with a budget that accounts for service charges and a phone number to confirm which unit the restaurant actually occupies. For anyone planning a Korean food outing in Singapore’s Bukit Timah area, the choice is clear: head straight to Beauty World Centre’s Level 4, bring a budget between $14 and $70, and decide between the classic banchan spread at Myung Ga III or the bold braised dishes at Joomak.
