Contemporary charcoal-grilled dining concept on Terminal 2's Level 3M mezzanine.
El Carbon brings a focus on charcoal-fired cooking to the mezzanine level of Terminal 2, offering travellers a dining experience centred on the bold, smoky flavours that only open-flame grilling can produce. The kitchen emphasises quality ingredients treated simply, allowing the charcoal to work its magic on meats, seafood and vegetables.The restaurant's elevated position on Level 3M provides a slightly removed, more intimate atmosphere compared to the main food court, making it a pleasant spot for a sit-down meal before or between flights. The menu spans shareable plates and hearty mains, all underpinned by the unmistakable aroma and taste of live-fire cooking.
Fire up your appetite at El Carbon in T2 and savour the primal pleasure of charcoal-grilled fare.

Salmon was the frozen kind, not fresh. Grilled fine, tasted ok. Salad was nicely seasoned, but it was not filling despite costing $8 with staff discount.

Good place to get your Western food fixed. While the price is reasonably ok, felt that the portion is also reasonably ok, not like generous nor stingy, however, the interesting part I like was besides the main, you get two sides plus one starch, so is good to have a little bit of everything.
