Kokkiri Bagel Hannam 코끼리베이글 한남점

Plain, fig, blueberry, matcha, spinach, red pepper and olive cheese bagels line the display, all baked in a wood-fired oven to a crisp shell and chewy center. For a meal there is a salmon sandwich, and the cream cheese and fresh cream doughnut tastes more of milk cream than sugar, best eaten cold. Bagels are at their best warm, and mornings offer the widest choice before many varieties sell out by afternoon. On the sweeter side, the salted chocolate bagel is plainly sweet and salty, and the fresh cream bagel is stuffed with fluffy whipped cream. Staff hand the bread out from behind the display, and the latte, smooth and nutty, sits well beside a bagel. Seats are few, so on a full weekday afternoon takeaway is often the only option. With the resident-priority spaces out front ticketed often, a nearby paid lot in Hannam-dong is the safer option.
