Seocho Nurungji Tteokbokki!! The name itself made me curious, and it turned out to be a bit different from regular tteokbokki. Instead of a thin sauce, it's thick and rich, almost creamy. The rice cakes were deeply seasoned too — spicy and sweet with the first bite. I love this kind of thick, rich tteokbokki, so it was totally my style! The rice cakes were also chewy with the sauce soaked right in — really delicious. The nurungji (crispy scorched rice) was so crunchy, and dipping it into the sauce was absolutely amazing! ![Black rice gimbap with cucumber strips and egg omelet](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyodae-hols-gimbap-nurungji-tteokbokki/gyodae-hols-gimbap-nurungji-tteokbokki-09-1qmho-900.webp) ### Black rice gimbap and cheongyang chili dakgangjeong at Halls Gimbap The gimbap caught my eye first — it wasn't regular white rice but black rice instead. Taking a bite, the rice wasn't too much, just the right amount, and inside was egg omelet, thick ham, and plenty of crunchy cucumber. The cucumber was sliced so thinly and rolled with such care. The crunch of the cucumber gave it great texture too. Fresh and packed with egg, it kept me full even after eating. And the dakgangjeong that came with it — this was surprisingly good haha. Crispy outside, juicy inside, exactly my style!! It was coated in a sweet sauce with cheongyang chili peppers sprinkled on top. At first I thought it was just chili on regular dakgangjeong, but once I tried it, that was totally the highlight haha. Spicy and just so good. ![Plate of dakgangjeong topped with cheongyang chili and gimbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyodae-hols-gimbap-nurungji-tteokbokki/gyodae-hols-gimbap-nurungji-tteokbokki-10-1irji-900.webp) ## Would I return to Halls Gimbap Main Branch for solo dining near Gyodae Station? Dipping the gimbap in the tteokbokki sauce too, before I knew it, my plate was nearly empty. When there's tteokbokki sauce left, you just can't resist dipping gimbap in it haha. If you want a filling meal near Gyodae Station, stop by Halls Gimbap!! Especially memorable for me was dipping the crispy nurungji into that thick tteokbokki sauce haha. ## Where it is - Halls Gimbap Main Branch (홀스김밥본점) - 90 Seochojungang-ro 22-gil, 1st floor, unit 101, Seocho-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 서초구 서초중앙로22길 90 1층 101호 - 37.49409, 127.0188004 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%99%80%EC%8A%A4%EA%B9%80%EB%B0%A5%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.49409,127.0188004,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@awning-menu-seoul/gyodae-hols-gimbap-nurungji-tteokbokki/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
