Gwangan Bridge looks this pretty, so it's famous as a Gwangalli brunch café, and since it opens early, I went and ate there in the morning!

How do the panuozzo and chicken avocado sandwiches taste?

This time at Working Holiday Minrak I had the panuozzo sandwich, the chicken avocado sandwich, and an americano.

The bread on the panuozzo sandwich at this ocean-view Gwangalli brunch café was especially delicious! They make the sandwiches with dough fermented for a long time using a daily biga method, so the light, chewy texture and deep flavor from the carefully baked bread make the sandwich even better!

True to a proper brunch spot, it looked pretty and the sandwich's flavor was really great!

It seems like a great spot to come with a friend for a delicious Gwangalli brunch trip!

All the sandwiches are so tasty that both travelers and Busan locals come here a lot, and since the staff are kind too, it's even more popular!

Salad and pumpkin-flavored soup served alongside the sandwiches

The salad and soup were tasty too — the soup had a sweet pumpkin flavor that was really good!

I especially recommend the panuozzo sandwich! Made with their own house-made pizza dough, the combination of mortadella ham and arugula felt fresh and was so delicious! It's a brunch café where you can enjoy a great meal while looking at the Gwangalli ocean view in Busan, so I recommend it. The view is so pretty and the brunch is so tasty~
