You can see the ingredients at a glance, so you won't be surprised by the unexpected texture of the gimbap. If you put a cute round and round gimbap in one bite, the ingredients inside blend in your mouth and become a sea of flavors. Gimbap, which has hundreds of flavors depending on what ingredients are included, is a food you won't get tired of eating every day.
Gimbap is treated as a side menu for a light meal or a packed meal, but it's actually a very expensive dish. A rich rice made by adding a golden ratio of water after a preparation process in which the ingredients are stir-fried and mixed separately. Human hands go from one to ten, from the skills of skilled personnel to make it beautiful. Perhaps because of that sincerity, gimbap is delicious no matter how and when you eat it. Nowadays, as the low-carb craze is raging, it is often seen that rice is spread thinly and topped with lots of ingredients, and gimbap is often replaced with egg paste or podofu. This week, I'm going to introduce 5 best gimbap restaurants that are delicious whether eaten horizontally or vertically, and that even lawyer Woo Yeong-woo will fall in love with.

â–²Review (Shikigami 547834): This is a food stall near Nakseongdae Station! I ate the rice thief gimbap and strawberry juice, and they were both really delicious. The gimbap in particular was really delicious. I thought you'd feel it because it only contained eggs, but it was a bit spicy! Is it spicy to neutralize the spiciness of eggs? I think it's even more delicious because I tried it!

A place showcasing a collaboration with stir-fried squid following Chungmu Gimbap. They use high-quality ingredients such as eggs brought directly from the poultry farm and deok directly from the production area, and pride in this is also evident throughout the store. The characteristic is that they sell over a dozen types of gimbap, squid dishes, and snacks together, and they recommend eating fried squid with gimbap. It contains a large amount of ingredients, so it has a chewy flavor and the juice of the vegetables blends comfortably in the mouth.

A gimbap restaurant that has been a long-time regular with flavors that are faithful to the basics. It's nice to see that it contains spinach, also known as “konchi†these days. The signature is Bangbae Gimbap, which contains stewed tofu and has a sweet and salty flavor. The characteristic is that the flavor and texture of the deep-fried tofu always tastes like beef, even though it doesn't contain meat. Another point is that the unsalted white radish adds a crunchy texture. Another advantage is that they have gimbap for kids, so you can choose from a wide range of options.

5. This is enough to be the bomb gimbap, Anam's “Lee Gong Gimbapâ€

Lee Gong Gimbap is located near Korea University's College of Science and Technology. The “tuna bomb gimbap†wrapped in a very thin layer of rice topped with plenty of tuna and plenty of carrots and burdock root was a hit on social media for a while with its bursting visuals. If you eat it with a little bit of mayonnaise, you can feel the soft and savory flavor of tuna gimbap in your mouth. Another reason for its popularity is that it is relatively inexpensive due to the nature of the university district. They have a variety of prepared foods such as pork cutlets, tteokbokki, and ramen that go well with gimbap.
