In a time when we hear a lot of stories about losses and failures due to COVID-19, it is always so inspiring to know that there are ideas, passion projects, and businesses that were born and are thriving in the middle 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 in 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 have 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 ordered closed at that time.

After careful planning, strategizing, curation of their menu, and costing, they launched the first-ever samgyeopsal delivery service in Pampanga: Samgyeop To Go (later on changed to Samgyeop On-The-Go) on April 9, 2020.

They were originally only catering to Sto. Tomas, but with the help of their mutual friends and families, word of mouth through social media, and continuous product improvement, Samgyeop To-Go also became well known in nearby towns.

Korean barbecue is undeniably a crowd favorite not just because of its taste and all the mouth-watering side dishes and sauces, but also because you get to see it cooked right in front of you. Eating Korean barbecue and shabu-shabu is a sensory experience – one that is best shared with your loved ones.

On October 8 last year, Ken and his friends – Joseph Lou Carpio and Germaine Raina Caraig – opened the doors of Samgyeop On-The-Go Unlimeated Korean BBQ and Shabu Shabu in Sto. Tomas, Pampanga. They received the same overwhelming reception for their physical store as they did online.

Their evident success called for another dine-in branch so the three of them and their new partner – Anne Tuazon – opened another in Mexico, Pampanga on September 18, 2021.

Aside from K-bbq and shabu shabu, diners may also indulge in Korean street foods in their al fresco dining area that is set and designed as if you are in the streets of South Korea.

Whether you are an already loyal customer or someone looking for a new K-BBQ and shabu-shabu place, come and visit their newest branch located in 556 Lagundi Highway, Mexico, Pampanga They are also open to franchising and co-franchising.
