In spring, Halls Gimbap had pretty tables out on the terrace, but right now they're only running the indoor seating. The plants are always well cared for no matter when you visit, so the owner must be pretty hardworking.

Ordered the egg-chili half gimbap with the tuna dakgangjeong set~~~~~ the egg gimbap is packed with egg and the tuna one is packed with tuna too hahaha. It's not too salty and loaded with protein, which I love. Gimbap alone can get a bit boring, but having the spicy dakgangjeong on the side makes it so much better.
