Beauty World Korean Food Guide: Top Restaurants & Menus
Anyone who has wandered through Beauty World Centre’s fourth level knows the smell: sesame oil, grilled pork, and a faint jolt of kimchi drifting out of a handful of unassuming storefronts. Recent reviews keep circling the same names — Myung Ga III, Joomak, and Pink Candy — and the prices they quote range from S$8.50 kimbap to a S$99 group set at Joomak, and this guide sorts the menus, prices, and reviews so you know what’s actually worth ordering and what to skip.
Korean restaurants featured: 3 ·
Price range for main dishes: S$20 to S$28 ·

Quick snapshot
- Joomak, at Beauty World Centre #04-01, specialises in braised pig’s trotters and Jeju black pork (DistrictSixtyFive (Singapore food and travel site)).

- Joomak’s original pig trotters are listed at S$59 (DistrictSixtyFive review; full prices in the menu section below). (DistrictSixtyFive (Singapore food and travel site))
- Whether Myung Ga III’s menu still matches blog-reported prices — no official menu surfaced in the coverage we reviewed.

- Pink Candy’s hours generally run 10:30am–2:30pm and 5pm–9:30pm, with Tuesday as an evening-only day (HungryGoWhere (restaurant directory)).
- Try Joomak’s Set C (S$99) — black pork belly, black pork collar, LA short rib, steamed egg and a choice of stew (DistrictSixtyFive review).
- Take home apple kimchi from Pink Candy at S$8 for 500g (HungryGoWhere (restaurant directory)).
- Order Myung Ga III’s Bulgogi Pajeon (S$28) — blog-reported pricing (Beauty World Korean Food: Reviews, Menus & Dining Tips).
The snapshot balances confirmed sources against open questions — a pattern that carries through the whole guide.
Ten rows capture the whole cluster: one documented budget dish under S$10, one splurge set near S$100, and a price ladder of roughly S$8 to S$28 in between.

What are the best Korean food reviews at Beauty World?
The reviews worth reading are the ones that name dishes and prices — not the ones that just say “good Korean food.” Three voices keep surfacing, and together they map the whole cluster.
Top recommendations from Instagram and blogs
- Blog lists and social roundups point to the same three names — Myung Ga III, Joomack, and Anjip Korean Grill House — a consensus mapped in Beauty World Korean Food: Reviews, Menus & Dining Tips.
- Myung Ga III gets the most “proper restaurant” praise: a Spring Tomorrow review walks through the menu in detail, and the dish people keep quoting is the Bulgogi Pajeon at S$28.
- The Joomak review with the clearest identity is DistrictSixtyFive’s (Singapore food and travel site): braised pig’s trotters and Jeju black pork, not generic barbecue.
- Pink Candy shows up in HungryGoWhere’s Beauty World roundup as the family-run kitchen with homemade kimchi — a different register from the other two.
Common praise and criticism in reviews
Most of what’s written about Beauty World’s Korean food is social proof, not verification. Joomak’s menu is the only one fully priced by an editorial review; every other number in this guide is a lead worth confirming before you order.
What is on the Korean food menu at Beauty World?
The menu picture splits into three clear lanes: sit-down classics at Myung Ga III, trotters and pork at Joomak, and homestyle snacks at Pink Candy.
Signature dishes at Myung Ga III
- Mul Naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodle soup) — S$20.
- Bulgogi Pajeon (beef bulgogi pancake) — S$28.
- Samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) — listed in blog reviews without a documented price.
These figures come from blog-level coverage — most thoroughly a Spring Tomorrow review — and they line up with the roundup in Beauty World Korean Food: Where to Eat & What to Order. Treat them as a stable baseline, not a published menu card.
Specialities at Joomak
- Original braised pig’s trotters — S$59.
- Combo of spicy and regular pig trotters — S$69.
- Jeju black pork belly and pork collar — S$27 each a la carte.
- Set C — S$99: black pork belly, black pork collar, LA short rib, steamed egg, and a choice of stew.
Every Joomak price above is taken from DistrictSixtyFive’s Joomak review (Singapore food and travel site), which is the most complete menu documentation in this cluster.
Joomak’s Set C is the value move for four people: ordering the same proteins separately — trotters at S$59 plus pork belly and collar at S$27 each — already costs S$113 before the steamed egg and stew. The set delivers more coverage for less.
Popular items at Anjip Korean Grill House
- Anjip appears in the same Instagram roundup as Myung Ga III and Joomak, but the post links its Clarke Quay outlet — a nearby recommendation, not a Beauty World Centre tenant.
- No full Anjip menu is detailed in the coverage we reviewed, so its BBQ position rests on the roundup’s mention rather than documented prices.
The homestyle menu at Pink Candy
- Kimbap — S$8.50.
- Black-bean noodles and bibimbap — S$12.90 each.
- Spicy rice cake (tteokbokki) — S$12.90. Kimchi pancake — S$21.90; sweet-spicy fried chicken — S$36.
- Army stew — S$22.90; apple kimchi — S$8 for 500g.
The first four price lines are Eatbook-referenced figures compiled by Asia Voice SG (Beauty World food guide), while the army stew and apple kimchi come from the HungryGoWhere roundup (see snapshot). Blog coverage also describes Pink Candy as family-run, with rooftop or al fresco seating (Nickblitzz (Beauty World food blog)).
The trade-off: Myung Ga III gives you the sit-down classics, Joomak gives you the specialist feast, and Pink Candy gives you the cheap homestyle fix. The menus barely overlap — which is exactly why three kitchens survive on one floor.
Where can I find Korean rice cake at Beauty World?
This is the question people search more often than you’d expect, and the honest answer is short.
Korean rice cake dishes available
- The only rice-cake dish with a documented price in this cluster is Pink Candy’s spicy rice cake (tteokbokki) at S$12.90, from the same Eatbook-referenced pricing cited in the Pink Candy menu above.
- No other restaurant in the reviewed coverage lists rice cake or tteokbokki on a published menu.
Restaurants that serve tteokbokki or rice cake sides
- Pink Candy: yes — spicy rice cake at S$12.90.
- Myung Ga III: not confirmed. Rice cake may appear inside stews or pancakes, but no source we reviewed confirms a standalone dish.
- Joomak: not on the documented menu. The DistrictSixtyFive review is built around trotters, black pork, LA short rib, steamed egg and stew — no rice cake.
If tteokbokki is the whole point of the trip, Pink Candy is the only safe bet on paper. For everyone else, the smarter move is to call ahead and ask, because menus here are less documented than the hype suggests.
The implication: “Korean rice cake at Beauty World” is a real search with thin supply — one dish, one restaurant, S$12.90. Don’t assume tteokbokki is everywhere just because it’s a Korean staple.
What is Myung Ga restaurant at Beauty World?
Myung Ga III is the restaurant-quality anchor of the cluster — the place reviewers point to when they want a proper sit-down Korean meal without a trip across town.
Myung Ga III location and atmosphere
- Myung Ga III sits on level 4 of Beauty World Centre, on the same floor as the hawker centre, according to the My Foodie Gallery Facebook feature that circulates in Beauty World food searches.
- Blog reviews describe it as proper restaurant-quality Korean food, not a hawker-style stall.
Menu highlights and pricing
- Mul Naengmyeon — S$20.
- Bulgogi Pajeon — S$28.
- Samgyetang — mentioned in blog coverage without a documented price.
The prices are blog-reported, most thoroughly in a Spring Tomorrow review, and they align with the roundup in Beauty World Korean Food: Where to Eat & What to Order — a stable baseline, not an official menu card.
Customer reviews and ratings
- Praise concentrates on consistency: a proper restaurant experience, with the Bulgogi Pajeon as the order people cite by name.
- Sitting on the same floor as the hawker centre makes the value gap obvious — you’re paying for a kitchen and a dining room, not a stall.
- No official rating, hygiene score, or certified menu is published in the sources we reviewed; the reputation lives in blog posts and social features, not regulatory pages.
What this means: Myung Ga III is the “sit-down classics” option — priced above hawker level but well below a full Korean BBQ blowout, which makes it the default answer to “where should we actually sit and eat?”
What is the Korean food scene at Beauty World Centre?
Beauty World Centre is not a Korean megaplex. It’s a compact, level-4 cluster where each restaurant owns a different craving.
List of Korean restaurants in Beauty World Centre
- Myung Ga III — level 4, sit-down Korean restaurant with noodle-and-pancake classics.
- Joomak — #04-01, braised pig’s trotters and Jeju black pork specialist.
- Pink Candy — #04-60, family-run homestyle kitchen with homemade kimchi.
- Related searches for “3 Meals A Day” Korean food at Beauty World don’t map to a separately documented outlet in the coverage we reviewed; they land back on this same cluster.
Comparison of dining levels (L4 etc.)
- Level 4 is the Korean hub: Myung Ga III and Joomak both operate there, with Pink Candy just a few doors away at #04-60.
- The hawker centre on the same floor means you can pair a cheap hawker bite with a S$28 pajeon in a single visit — no second commute.
- Local roundups also flag Korean food at nearby Bukit Timah Shopping Centre, so the two malls form a mini Korean strip across the road.
Nearby alternatives at Bukit Timah Shopping Centre
What the scene adds up to: three specialists, one floor, zero overlap — each a one-visit answer to a different craving.
Weighing the options: pros and cons of the Beauty World Korean cluster
Before you pick a restaurant, weigh what the cluster does well against where the evidence gets thin.
Upsides
- Three distinct styles in one building: sit-down classics (Myung Ga III), trotters-and-black-pork specialist (Joomak), and homestyle kimchi kitchen (Pink Candy).
- Documented pricing: Joomak’s menu carries full prices in an editorial review, and Pink Candy’s key dishes come with Eatbook-referenced figures.
- Cheap takeaway wins: kimbap at S$8.50 and apple kimchi at S$8 for 500g make Pink Candy a low-risk first stop.
- Level 4 concentration: one lift ride covers a sit-down meal, a snack, and the hawker centre.
Downsides
- Thin verification: most coverage is blog- and Instagram-level; official menus and hygiene ratings are not published in the sources we reviewed.
- Pork-heavy menu at Joomak — trotters and black pork lead, and vegetarian options are undocumented.
- Splurge pricing at Joomak: trotter platters run S$59–S$99, making it a group meal rather than a solo weeknight dinner.
- No alcohol at Pink Candy, per a Tripadvisor review (customer reviews).
- No halal certification is documented for any of the three restaurants.
The trade-off: if you want cheap and fast, Pink Candy wins; if you want the documented group feast, Joomak is the pick; if you want a proper table, Myung Ga III. The cluster only fails when you pick the wrong lane for the occasion.
What’s confirmed and what’s still unclear
With a low-confidence source pool, we split everything into two lists: what has a solid citation, and what remains open.
Confirmed facts
- Joomak is at Beauty World Centre #04-01 and specialises in braised pig’s trotters and Jeju black pork (DistrictSixtyFive review, cited above).
- Joomak’s original trotters run S$59, and Set C is S$99 (DistrictSixtyFive review).
- Pink Candy is at #04-60, family-run, with homemade kimchi varieties and apple kimchi at S$8 for 500g (HungryGoWhere roundup).
- Pink Candy’s army stew is S$22.90 (HungryGoWhere roundup).
What’s unclear
- Whether Myung Ga III’s current menu still matches blog-reported prices (S$20 naengmyeon, S$28 bulgogi pajeon) — no verified menu exists in the sources reviewed.
- Whether rice cake is available beyond Pink Candy’s S$12.90 spicy rice cake.
- Whether any restaurant in the cluster has halal certification.
- Whether Joomak has workable vegetarian options — its documented menu is pork-centric.
- Anjip Korean Grill House’s exact menu, and whether it operates a Beauty World outlet; the roundup links its Clarke Quay location.
The pattern: the confirmed list runs long on Joomak and Pink Candy, while Myung Ga III’s specifics rest on blogs. Order confidently at the first two; double-check the third before you go.
What reviewers keep saying
Four review threads keep resurfacing, and each maps to a different dining decision.
“Joomak is not another barbecue set-menu house. The menu leads with braised pig’s trotters, then Jeju black pork — destination dishes priced like a group occasion.”
DistrictSixtyFive, Joomak review
“Pink Candy is the homestyle anchor of the cluster: family-run, reasonably priced and authentic — though the soju shelf is now empty.”
Tripadvisor (customer reviews), Pink Candy reviewer
“The kimchi list alone is a reason to stop: cucumber, green onion, cabbage, apple and radish, with the apple version priced at S$8 for 500g.”
HungryGoWhere, Beauty World roundup
“Myung Ga III is the proper-restaurant answer in the building — a kitchen that behaves like a dining room, not a hawker stall.”
Spring Tomorrow blog, Myung Ga III review (compiled in Beauty World Korean Food: Reviews, Menus & Dining Tips)
The takeaway: reviewers keep dividing the cluster into four jobs — Joomak for the feast, Pink Candy for the homestyle fix, HungryGoWhere for prices, and Myung Ga III for the sit-down meal. Match the job to your craving and the choice gets easy.
The takeaway
The cluster is small but brutally well-defined, and that’s exactly why the hype holds up: three kitchens doing three jobs, with zero overlap. For anyone planning a Beauty World food crawl, the choice is clear: use Pink Candy as the cheap starter, Joomak as the group main event, and Myung Ga III when you want a proper table — or you’ll leave full of rice and short on the dish you actually came for.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a meal at Myung Ga III cost?
Blog reviews list Mul Naengmyeon at S$20 and Bulgogi Pajeon at S$28, with samgyetang also on the menu. Those are the most-cited main-course prices in recent coverage, but no official menu is published in the sources we reviewed — confirm when you arrive.
Is Beauty World Centre a good place for Korean food?
Yes, if you want a compact cluster rather than a mega food street: a sit-down restaurant (Myung Ga III), a trotters-and-pork specialist (Joomak), and a homestyle kitchen with homemade kimchi (Pink Candy), all concentrated on the fourth level.
Are there halal Korean options in Beauty World?
None of the guides we reviewed document halal certification. Joomak’s documented menu is pork-focused — trotters, black pork belly and collar — so halal diners should confirm directly with each restaurant before visiting.

144 Upper Bukit Timah Road, Singapore 588177.

The DistrictSixtyFive review documents a pork-centric menu — trotters, black pork belly and collar, LA short rib, steamed egg and a choice of stew — with no vegetarian dishes listed. Call ahead to check for off-menu options.
Which floor is Myung Ga III on?
Level 4, on the same floor as the hawker centre, according to blog coverage and the My Foodie Gallery Facebook feature that circulates in Beauty World food searches.
The cluster delivers what it advertises: three distinct specialists, one floor, a clear decision for any craving.
