Gangnam sushi restaurant vs Gwangju branch, weekday lunch: Sushi Ian N

Sushi Ian N Seolleung Station is a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant a 3-minute walk from Exit 2 of Seolleung Station in Gangnam, Seoul, where every plate is a flat 1,990 won. A visitor who often ate at the Gwangju branch waited 20 minutes at 1pm on a weekday and ordered egg shrimp sushi, beef tartare tataki sushi, grilled prawn sushi and a seasonal item sold only in Seoul. The flavour matched the Gwangju branch exactly, which made Sushi Ian N a satisfying lunch date spot.

Brivite Seongsu suits couples and friends who want to taste both pasta and gnocchi in one meal.
