For a while, my favorite place for take away kimbap was from one of the stalls at Causeway Bay's Sogo. Price was inexpensive and they made the rolls upon ordering. It tasted good and my favorite was the original version as not that many places added fish cake. But then one day it closed! Though it was replaced with another place that I did like, I still missed this place for it was less expensive and it was made to order. The other place wasn't and all factory produced.Then one day I came acros
Then one day I came across Kimbap Lab in Central. I took a look .. and the faces seemed familiar. They were the people from Sogo! They apparently had moved to Central with dine in. I had to give it a try!
Dine in is spacious enough. A few tables and some facing the wall. Order and pay at the cashier where they'll give you a pager that will ring when ready.
Menu is in English and Chinese. There is no 10% service charge. They also seem to have expanded with choices of sets.
We decided to get two kimbap sets. Set A includes a kimbap (chose original version, $48), hot drink (I had ginseng tea) and a fishcake with kelp soup for an added $10. Boyfriend had Set C which includes a kimbap (he chose beef, $52), a hot drink (but he upgraded to a soft drnk for $2) and crispy seaweed noodle and sweet potato for an added $15.
The kimbap was fantastic. Though boyfriend said it's no longer made to order. I guess with the working Central crowd, it's more efficient to make them all ahead of time. But still very good. The beef was fine but my favorite is still the original. The rice was soft and not hard. The fillings were fresh and savory. The fishcake soup was ok and so was the drinks but the star is still the kimbaps this place makes.
Boyfriend had these fried items. These were made to order so very VERY hot. And crispy. You get a choice of sauce so he had honey mustard drizzled on top. It was not too oily but I think I'd be back for the soup set.
Prices not expensive especially for Central. And I'm glad I found they didn't close after all. Just moved to a bigger location.
