So good..😋 ![Close-up of golden-grilled chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-15-iyo87-966.webp) If you look closely, it's well seasoned so there's no gamey taste at all haha ![Seasoned chicken with broccoli and other vegetables](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-16-18tf1-966.webp) I got the spicy teriyaki sauce, and dipping into it was so satisfying! Spicy teriyaki doesn't seem spicy at first but it builds up haha 🌶️🌶️🌶️ There was broccoli among the vegetables too! It's oddly hard to find broccoli in a salad, but this place packs it in generously! The oat rice was also chewy with a nice pop! That signature popping texture of oats — totally my favorite 💛 ![Chicken protein box mixed together with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-17-154i6-966.webp) By the end I just mixed everything together haha Chicken is a super recommended protein pick ✨ ## Beef protein box with pasta and teriyaki, 12,900 won The beef protein box was 12,900 won, and we ordered it with pasta as the base and teriyaki as the sauce. ![Beef protein box with pasta base](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-18-1tooy-966.webp) The visuals were insane..⭐️ We added pasta as the base for the beef protein box! ![Protein box topped with a generous beef steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-19-mmru5-966.webp) Look at how much beef there is!

This too was perfectly seasoned, so it wasn't gamey — just the right balance haha ![Beef steak dipped in teriyaki sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-22-1fkw8-966.webp) Dipping it into the teriyaki sauce was so satisfying..✨ ![A bite of beef eaten together with pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-23-1crc7-966.webp) We ordered the beef with pasta, and eating beef dipped in teriyaki sauce together with the pasta was truly delicious! ![Emptied protein box after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box/ystove-diet-konkuk-protein-box-24-froe7-966.webp) Once you're done, just return the tray to the counter and you're all set! ## Is Y-Stave Diet Konkuk worth it for a healthy meal near Konkuk Station? We stopped by Y-Stave Diet Konkuk while looking for a good salad restaurant near Konkuk, and I loved that even though it's salad or poke, the protein box makes it filling with extra protein ✨ You get to choose the main ingredient, like chicken or beef, and pair it however you like with oat rice, pasta, and more — so it's a great pick for anyone tired of eating the same diet meal every time.
