## What kind of place is Halls Gimbap Main Branch in Gyodae?

Halls Gimbap Main Branch is a Gyodae lunch spot where you can eat dakgangjeong alongside healthy gimbap (seaweed rice roll). It's actually been open a long time — they just changed the name to Halls Gimbap over a branding issue — so the owners have plenty of experience and plenty of regulars. The rolls are packed with ingredients and light on rice, making them perfect for anyone on a low-carb diet, so I'd recommend it if you're stuck on what to have for a diet-friendly lunch. Why did I only just find out gimbap and dakgangjeong together tastes this good,,

### Solo-dining seats and terrace at Halls Gimbap

There were more staff inside than I expected, and delivery orders kept coming in nonstop — clearly a busy Gyodae lunch spot haha. There are especially plenty of terrace seats and solo-dining seats, so it's good for a quiet solo lunch, and on a nice day the terrace feels like a picnic. Halls Gimbap Main Branch — good for the body and the mind!

## Menu lineup and how half-and-half gimbap ordering works

The menu has gimbap, dakgangjeong, and a set menu where you can have both together — though the dakgangjeong in the set is apparently half the size of the small portion. Gimbap can also be ordered half-and-half, so if you want to try a few kinds, I'd recommend getting half rolls of each.

There's also a variety of cup noodles you can have with the gimbap, including small cups, which seem like they'd go well with it.

### Free bonito broth at Halls Gimbap

The warm bonito broth is served free, and it has a clean taste without added seasoning, so I ended up drinking three cups lol. It pairs so well with the gimbap that I just drank the broth on its own without the cup noodles.

## Halls gimbap + wasabi gimbap 7,500 won and dakgangjeong S 10,000 won

Today's order: Halls gimbap + wasabi gimbap ₩7,500, dakgangjeong size S ₩10,000.

The gimbap was even more packed than expected, with lots of vegetables — perfect when you want something fresh! Each roll has 10 pieces, and each piece is big enough for a fully filling meal.

### The signature Halls gimbap, filled with spicy fish cake

The signature Halls gimbap has spicy fish cake along with egg strips and vegetables, so it tastes fresh and healthy with a bit of a kick! I like spicy fish cake gimbap or ttaengcho (hot pepper) gimbap, and this wasn't as spicy as I expected, so even those who can't handle spice can eat it — recommended for anyone who wants a little edge within a healthy meal lol.

![Cross-section of gimbap packed with tuna](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyodae-half-half-gimbap-wasabi-dakgangjeong/gyodae-half-half-gimbap-wasabi-dakgangjeong-13-12cn2-966.webp)

### The tuna-packed gimbap

The gimbap loaded with tuna had more tuna than rice, so it was packed with protein, and the tuna was moist rather than dry — delicious!! Some places that sell tuna-heavy gimbap worry me by adding too much mayonnaise, but here it was just moist enough and had a healthy taste, which I liked.

## Dakgangjeong size S: crisp outside, juicy chicken thigh inside

The dakgangjeong was really delicious, and the chili peppers on top were spicy in a way that matched it well.

![A piece of dakgangjeong made with chicken thigh meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyodae-half-half-gimbap-wasabi-dakgangjeong/gyodae-half-half-gimbap-wasabi-dakgangjeong-15-119w3-966.webp)

Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, made with chicken thigh meat, so it was so soft, and the sauce coating was just right. Isn't this basically just a dakgangjeong specialty spot?? For ₩10,000, this amount felt reasonable, so it seems great for takeout whenever you're craving dakgangjeong!!

## Final verdict on lunch at Halls Gimbap Main Branch
