Finding an affordable meal in Singapore can sometimes feel like a small victory, especially when the meal is more than just a simple dish. For those who enjoy Korean food, Ajumma’s Korean Restaurant has a new reason to plan an afternoon food break, with its upgraded Off-Peak Deals offering a main, free-flow side dishes and a K-Treat for just $9.90++.
Starting from 7 September 2026 onwards, the promotion is available on weekdays from 2pm to 5pm, excluding public holidays. That timing may not suit everyone, but for those with flexible lunch hours, students, shoppers, families with young children or anyone looking for an early afternoon meal, this could be a particularly attractive deal.
The interesting part is that the $9.90++ price does not simply cover a basic main. The promotion also comes with free-flow side dishes and a choice of one K-Treat, making it a more complete Korean dining experience without having to spend too much.
A $9.90++ Korean Meal That Comes With More
The biggest reason this promotion stands out is its combination of food and extras.
For $9.90++, diners get a main dish together with free-flow side dishes. Korean meals are often associated with an assortment of banchan, so having side dishes included makes the meal feel more substantial rather than simply being a bowl of food on its own.
There is also a choice of K-Treat to finish the meal.
Depending on the choice, diners can enjoy an Omija Berry Smoothie, Milk Tea Brûlée Smoothie or a Dubai Chewy Cookie.
That gives the promotion a nice balance. Those who prefer something refreshing can go for one of the smoothies, while anyone with a sweet tooth can choose the Dubai Chewy Cookie instead.
At $9.90++ before the applicable charges, getting a main, side dishes and a treat in one visit makes this worth considering for an affordable weekday meal.
Why Visit During the Off-Peak Hours?
The 2pm to 5pm timing is actually part of the appeal.
Singapore’s usual lunch period can be hectic, with office workers rushing out for meals and popular restaurants becoming crowded around noon. By the time the afternoon arrives, many people have already finished lunch and returned to work.
That is exactly why an off-peak dining deal can be useful.
Instead of trying to squeeze a meal into the traditional 12pm lunch rush, diners who have the flexibility can make their visit later in the afternoon. It can be a more relaxed time to sit down, enjoy Korean food and take a proper break.
For shoppers, the timing can work particularly well. A trip to the mall does not always have to revolve around lunchtime. Diners can shop first, take a break between 2pm and 5pm and then continue with the rest of the afternoon.
Students and those working flexible schedules may also find the timing convenient.
What Makes Ajumma’s Worth Considering?
Ajumma’s Korean Restaurant is a Singapore-grown fast-casual Korean restaurant that has been around since 2014, with its food inspired by the hearty dishes found in Korean markets and streets. Its menu includes familiar favourites such as bibimbap, beef kalbi, bulgogi, jjajangbap, jjamppong, Korean fried chicken and other comforting Korean dishes.
That makes this promotion particularly useful for people who may already be familiar with Korean food but do not necessarily want to spend heavily on a full restaurant meal.
The restaurant’s style is also suited to casual occasions. This is not necessarily a deal that requires a special celebration or a big group gathering. It can simply be an excuse to have a satisfying weekday meal.
Sometimes the best food deals are the ones that fit naturally into an ordinary day.
Free-Flow Side Dishes Add More Value
For anyone who enjoys Korean food, the free-flow side dishes are one of the details worth paying attention to.
Side dishes, or banchan, are an important part of Korean dining. They provide different textures and flavours alongside the main dish, giving the meal more variety.
Ajumma’s is also known for serving Korean mains with side dishes, and its menu has traditionally included familiar accompaniments such as kimchi, sweet corn with mayonnaise, pickled radish and seaweed.
With this promotion specifically offering free-flow side dishes, diners can enjoy a little more variety alongside their main instead of having to order additional dishes just to make the meal feel complete.
That is especially useful for those who enjoy having something savoury, tangy or refreshing to eat alongside their main.
Do Not Forget the K-Treat
The dessert or drink component is another reason this promotion feels more generous than a straightforward discounted main.
There are three K-Treat choices mentioned in the promotion: Omija Berry Smoothie, Milk Tea Brûlée Smoothie and Dubai Chewy Cookie.
The Omija Berry Smoothie should appeal to diners looking for something fruity and refreshing, while the Milk Tea Brûlée Smoothie offers a more indulgent option for milk tea fans.
Then there is the Dubai Chewy Cookie, which gives diners a solid sweet treat if they would rather have something to bite into than a drink.
Having a choice is always useful because not everyone wants the same type of after-meal treat.
A Deal for More Than Just Lunch
Although this is technically an off-peak promotion, it does not have to be viewed simply as a late lunch.
It can be an afternoon catch-up with friends, a meal after an appointment, a break during a shopping trip or even an early dinner for those who tend to eat earlier.
The weekday restriction may actually make it more useful for people who have regular weekday routines. Instead of waiting for the weekend when restaurants can become busier, diners can take advantage of the offer during the quieter part of the day.
Just remember that the promotion is stated to exclude public holidays, so the weekday timing should not automatically be assumed to apply every Monday to Friday.
Convenient Outlets Around Singapore
Another advantage is that Ajumma’s has several outlets around Singapore. Its official website currently lists locations at Funan Mall, Waterway Point, PLQ Mall, Northpoint City, Westgate and Lentor Modern.
For example, the Westgate outlet is located at 3 Gateway Drive, #01-07, while the PLQ Mall outlet is at 10 Paya Lebar Road, #B2-26.
With multiple locations, diners can choose the outlet that fits their plans rather than travelling across Singapore just for the promotion.
That makes the offer easier to work into an ordinary weekday.
Why Should Diners Enjoy This Deal?
The simplest answer is value.
For $9.90++, diners get a main, free-flow side dishes and a choice of K-Treat. For anyone already planning to eat Korean food, this gives them an opportunity to make the meal more worthwhile without pushing the budget too far.
The promotion also encourages diners to move away from the busiest lunch period. A quieter afternoon meal can be much more enjoyable when there is no need to rush back immediately after ordering.
It is also a good opportunity for people who have not tried Ajumma’s recently to revisit the restaurant and explore its menu.
Of course, diners should check the promotion details with the outlet before ordering, particularly if there are specific conditions or changes to the participating menu.
A Simple Way to Make a Weekday Afternoon More Enjoyable
Not every good deal needs to involve a huge discount or a complicated redemption process.
Sometimes, getting a proper Korean meal with side dishes and a drink or sweet treat for $9.90++ is enough to make an ordinary afternoon more interesting.
From 7 September 2026 onwards, Ajumma’s Korean Restaurant is giving diners a reason to shift their meal time to between 2pm and 5pm on weekdays. With a main, free-flow side dishes and a choice of K-Treat included, the offer is worth considering for anyone who enjoys Korean comfort food and wants to keep their dining spending under control.
For shoppers, students, flexible workers, families or simply anyone who happens to be hungry during the afternoon, this could be a good time to drop by.
The early lunch crowd may have gone home, the dinner crowd has not arrived yet, and there is a $9.90++ Korean meal waiting in between.
That sounds like a pretty good reason to make an afternoon food stop.
Note: Promotion details are based on the offer information provided and may be subject to outlet availability or other terms. Diners are advised to check with Ajumma’s before visiting.
