The sandwich tasted clean and fresh and the grains made the salad filling, so Mandali To Go is a place worth returning to whenever brunch in Ilgwang comes to mind. ## Good to know - **Location**: 60-1 Ilgwang-ro, Ilgwang-eup, Gijang-gun, Busan (1st and 2nd floors) - **Arugula jambon-beurre sandwich**: 12,000 won - **Mushroom confit grain salad**: 15,000 won - **Whole wheat levain nurungji ciabatta**: 4,300 won - **Green and black olive ciabatta**: 3,100 won - **Americano**: 5,000 won - **Wait time**: Visited early on a weekday, about 20 minutes - **Seating**: 1st floor for ordering and the bakery; about 10 tables on the 2nd floor, plus a group room for 3 to 10 people - **Price reference**: ₩12,000 ≈ $8.9 · ₩15,000 ≈ $11 · ₩4,300 ≈ $3.2 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* ![Main image of brunch at Mandali To Go Ilgwang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-01-w68c9-900.webp) The weather's been so nice lately, and I wanted to eat something good and chat with a friend, so we headed out to Ilgwang in Gijang, Busan. ## What kind of place is Mandali To Go Ilgwang Branch in Gijang?

Somehow having a full table just makes you feel good, you know? And every dish looked so pretty with its colors, right? ![Window-side brunch table on the 2nd floor with coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-14-tvs5u-900.webp) With the salad, sandwich, ciabatta, and coffee all laid out together, it made for quite an impressive spread. My friend and I kept saying 'we really picked well today!' while snapping photos before eating. A warm americano on the side rounded out the flavors of the bread and sandwich nicely. ## Arugula jambon-beurre sandwich: how it tastes ![A plate of rucola jambon-beurre sandwich](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-15-9w4dw-900.webp) One of the dishes I was most looking forward to was the rucola jambon-beurre sandwich! ![Cross-section of the sandwich showing jambon and rucola](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-16-132ih-900.webp) The clean, salty flavor of the jambon paired with the fresh brightness of the rucola (arugula) made for a really great combination. Best of all, the rucola kept the overall flavor from feeling too heavy. ![Fried sweet potato served alongside the sandwich](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-17-mv3qf-900.webp) We shared the softly fried sweet potato that came with it too, and it was so good we just kept saying 'wow' over and over. ## Mushroom confit grain salad with ciabatta ![A bowl of mushroom confit grain salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-18-1bcoa-900.webp) Next up, a slightly lighter dish — the mushroom confit grain salad! ![Close-up of the salad with grains and mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-19-vvqie-900.webp) Rather than just a pile of greens, it came with grains and mushrooms to enjoy together, which made it feel quite filling as a meal. ![Brunch spread with salad and sandwich together](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-20-18u9q-900.webp) Especially when you order several brunch dishes, pairing the salad with the sandwich lets you enjoy contrasting flavors, which I loved. ![Table with salad and bread served together](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-21-17ga4-900.webp) And here are the breads my bread-loving friend insisted we absolutely had to try~ ![Two kinds of ciabatta chosen by my friend](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-22-sfo4u-900.webp) Whole wheat levain nurungji (scorched rice) ciabatta! ![Cross-section of the green black olive ciabatta](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-23-ncg5j-875.webp) Green black olive ciabatta! The olive bread especially had a subtle saltiness that kept us reaching for more. In the end, even though we said we'd only have a little, we cleaned it all up! Haha. ## Verdict: is Mandali To Go worth it for brunch in Ilgwang? ![The table after finishing brunch at Mandali To Go Ilgwang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch/mandali-togo-ilgwang-jambon-beurre-brunch-24-19i6t-900.webp) Mandali To Go Ilgwang Branch, the Gijang brunch café I visited with my friend!
