## In short

29 Tamago Euljiro Branch is a gimbap (seaweed rice roll) restaurant in Euljiro3-ga, Jung-gu, Seoul, where the keto gimbap is filled with egg instead of rice. For a walk along Cheonggyecheon stream with a 7-year-old, the writer packed three keto rolls from 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch — tuna, chicken breast and carrot rapé — and ate them on a bench. The three flavors were different enough that ordering all at once never got dull, and the pieces were easy to share, making them a good picnic lunch for a day out with a child.

Filling even without rice — three keto gimbap rolls! A takeout report from 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch 💛

As the fall breeze gets cooler, weekends have me wondering where to take a walk with my kid these days. This time I decided to stroll along Cheonggyecheon stream with my 7-year-old daughter, and packed a light picnic lunch for the occasion. For eating before or after a walk, I wanted something easy to eat but still satisfying enough — not too heavy.

What I ended up packing was the three keto gimbap rolls from 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch. I already like gimbap normally, but this time I went with the keto version, which uses egg instead of rice. I picked up tuna, chicken breast, and carrot rapé — three rolls with completely different fillings — and headed to Cheonggyecheon.

## Why 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch is an easy gimbap takeout stop in Euljiro

29 Tamago Euljiro Branch is a solid spot for picking up gimbap in the Euljiro area. This time the goal wasn't to eat in-store but to combine takeout with a walk along Cheonggyecheon. Grabbing the order and heading toward the stream made for a simple route — meal and stroll in one.

The shop sells a variety of gimbap centered on egg-based rolls. What stood out was that, unlike regular gimbap, some menu items use egg instead of rice as the main ingredient.

Since I was eating this with my kid, I checked the packaging and ingredients first — the rolls were packed neatly without falling apart, which made them easy to eat outdoors too.

## Today's order: three keto gimbap rolls

### Keto tuna gimbap

This one combines the savory taste of tuna with soft egg. If you like the familiar taste of tuna gimbap, this was an easy, comfortable combination to eat.

### Keto chicken breast gimbap

This one centers on mild chicken breast and egg. It suited a moment when I wanted something clean without strong seasoning.

### Keto carrot rapé gimbap

Of the three, this had the most refreshing feel. The crunchy texture of carrot rapé and its tangy flavor paired with the egg gave it a charm distinct from the other two rolls.

All three use egg instead of rice, so the cross-sections looked noticeably different from regular gimbap. The yellow of the egg combined with each filling made for a good-looking packed lunch too.

## Eating the keto gimbap on a Cheonggyecheon bench

After picking up the gimbap, we headed to Cheonggyecheon. The weather was cool and pleasant for walking, and it was a nice day to pause and listen to the sound of the water. Walking with my daughter, we sat on a bench and pulled out the takeout gimbap — simple, but it turned into a pretty nice weekend picnic. The first one I tried was the keto tuna gimbap.

The texture was a bit different from rice-based tuna gimbap, but the soft taste of the egg plus the savory tuna made it easy to eat and familiar. The salty tuna flavor went well with the egg, and the filling gave it enough texture to keep from being bland.

The tuna roll was also the one my daughter showed the most interest in. Since it looked different from the gimbap she normally eats, she checked out the inside as she ate — the egg-and-tuna combo made it easy to share with her too.

Next was the keto chicken breast gimbap. Chicken breast can sometimes feel dry depending on how it's cooked, but eaten together with the egg here, the mild flavor came through smoothly. It leaned toward letting the natural taste of the ingredients come through rather than strong seasoning.

![Bite-sized keto chicken breast gimbap, easy to share](https://img.superchart.com/images/euljiro-kito-gimbap-cheonggyecheon-picnic-takeout/euljiro-kito-gimbap-cheonggyecheon-picnic-takeout-12-1raxj-m-900.webp)

Texture matters when eating chicken breast with a kid, and this one didn't feel especially chewy or tough. Eaten in one bite together with the egg, the mildness of the chicken breast wasn't overwhelming either.

The last one I tried was the keto carrot rapé gimbap. Of the three, it had the most distinctive flavor. The crunchy carrot rapé gave it a lively bite, and the tangy flavor made the whole thing feel fresh.

After the mild, savory tuna and chicken breast rolls, the carrot rapé roll shifted the mood entirely. The combination of soft egg and crunchy carrot made it fun to alternate between the three.

## Is rice-free gimbap filling enough?

What struck me most about eating 29 Tamago's keto gimbap this time was that, even without rice, it still delivered the convenience and variety of fillings that gimbap is known for. Of course, the texture and fullness feel different from regular gimbap, but eating egg together with protein like tuna or chicken breast made it work well as a simple meal. Packing all three flavors together especially kept things from getting monotonous.

![Cross-section of keto gimbap showing the egg filling](https://img.superchart.com/images/euljiro-kito-gimbap-cheonggyecheon-picnic-takeout/euljiro-kito-gimbap-cheonggyecheon-picnic-takeout-16-fwry1-900.webp)

Switching from the savory tuna roll to the milder chicken breast roll, then cleansing the palate midway with the carrot rapé roll, made each flavor stand out even more.

On an outing with a kid, food that's too heavy or complicated to eat means more to worry about, so I also liked that the gimbap was easy to split into pieces and share.

That said, being labeled 'keto' doesn't automatically mean low-calorie or right for everyone, so if you're managing your diet, it's worth checking the fillings and sauces too.

## Picking up takeout for a Euljiro and Cheonggyecheon outing

This weekend, I picked up three keto gimbap rolls from 29 Tamago Euljiro Branch and ate them by Cheonggyecheon. The savory tuna, the mild chicken breast, and the crunchy, refreshing carrot rapé were different enough from each other that ordering all three at once didn't feel repetitive.

If you've been curious about gimbap made with egg instead of rice, are looking for an easy packed lunch, or are trying to figure out what to eat while walking from Euljiro to Cheonggyecheon, this might be worth checking out.

It works well for a light walk with a kid like we did, but it's just as fitting for a quick office lunch or a simple takeout meal.
