Situated at the end of an alley in Namseong Market in Sadang-dong, Bangbae Gimbap is so good you won’t want to bother with the other treats the market has to offer. The secret to Bangbae Gimbap’s 30 years of success is their yubu, or fried tofu, which is boiled down in soy sauce, pepper, and sugar in a cast-iron cauldron for two hours. The rich flavor of the boiled-down yubu is as good as it gets.

The Yubu Gimbap is served along with pickled radishes that are soaked in water to remove any color. The young restaurant owner makes sure he preserves the originality of the restaurant’s gimbap by using select soy sauce and sesame seed oil, aiding in each dishes’ distinct flavor. Despite being busy, there is hardly a wait as family members work together making, cutting, and packing each gimbap. The gimbap is available for take-out only, and the restaurant offers door-to-door delivery in the Seoul and Gyeonggi-do area. The Gochu Gimbap, which is made of hot and spicy Cheongyang chili peppers marinated in a vinegar soy sauce, has a seriously spicy and addictive flavor.
