It’s not a rice cake, yet it’s chewy. The chewiness of the dense bagel combined with the nutty flavor of sesame already delivers a satisfying punch. It’s ‘jambon beurre,’ but not overly salty. In fact, it’s quite pleasant. The seasoning is perfect for the chewy bagel. Think of it as a Korean-patched ‘jambon beurre’ bagel. The ‘brick lain’ is a bulked-up cream cheese. Sandwiched between slices of black sesame-covered bread, the cream cheese is indulgent. Honey is generously drizzled, providing a harmonious blend of chewiness and sweetness in each bite. It’s an enchanting taste reminiscent of a croissant. The packaged ‘chive scallion onion’ bagel is a hit among Koreans. The intense aroma of scallions, a touch of spicy chives, sweet and chewy onion, and cream playfully dance in your mouth.
For those who want to enjoy a chewy bagel under the sunlight on a terrace, I recommend the London Bagel Museum Dosan branch. It’s a highly popular cafΓ©, so be prepared for a wait. Opting for an open run might lessen the waiting time. If you’re looking to experience the ambiance of London Dong in Gangnam-gu, this is a must-visit. Dosan Park is a vibrant neighborhood with plenty to see, making it a delightful area for a stroll. And it’s not just this shop; you can capture several Instagram-worthy photos throughout the area.
