Bar-table solo lunch at a 2nd-floor gimbap shop in Euljiro3-ga: 29
In short
29 Tamago Euljiro Branch is a keto gimbap (seaweed rice roll) restaurant on the 2nd floor above the intersection in front of Jungbu Police Station near Euljiro3-ga Station in Jung-gu, Seoul. The bar-table seating made solo dining easy, and the writer ordered the Vietnamese-style salad gimbap, the cheese vegetable whole egg roll gimbap, and sweet-and-sour jjolmyeon. Portions of rice were light and the whole egg roll was generous, making it a satisfying, non-greasy lunch.

What I ordered and the prices
🗒 Ordered — Vietnamese-style salad gimbap ₩12,000 / Cheese vegetable whole egg roll gimbap ₩9,500 / Sweet-and-sour jjolmyeon spice level 1 ₩7,500
Menus with such a colorful mix that just look happy.
Vietnamese-style salad gimbap
Isn't the Vietnamese-style salad gimbap gorgeous? The colors are pretty even from the cross-section, and the fillings looked so generous I wanted to dig in right away.
Keto gimbap in particular is built around egg and various vegetable toppings instead of rice, so it feels distinctly different from regular gimbap.
29 Tamago's signature Vietnamese-style keto gimbap let me enjoy both health and flavor at once — very satisfying.
Sauce comes served separately, but I just ate it plain. The crunchy texture of the fresh vegetables was great and even made me feel fresh and good. I thought gimbap might be light, but it was surprisingly filling for a full meal. Especially for lunchtime when something too greasy or heavy feels like a burden, this kind of menu seemed just right. I think it would suit office workers in Euljiro looking for lunch, or anyone hunting for a light solo-dining option in Euljiro.
Cheese vegetable whole egg roll gimbap
Cheese vegetable whole egg roll gimbap.
It comes with a sauce — the sauce turned out to be homemade too.
Fresh vegetables, spicy fish cake, steamed spam, cheddar cheese, and the whole egg roll — a perfect combination. The rice portion is light and the whole egg roll is chunky, and that egg roll is the real kicker. Thick, fluffy, and soft, with cheese on top — genuinely delicious.
Gimbap needs a side of soup, right? The seasoning wasn't too salty either — nice.
Water is self-serve from the water purifier next to the kiosk. And Japanese candy for a palate cleanser at the end — perfect!!!
