Chamchi Gimbab is a Korean dish.  Gimbab, with tuna (chamchi) – canned tuna mixed with mayo (like in an American tunafish sandwich) – as the central ingredient.  Arguably the second-most popular version of gimbab, after the standard.  A version of this in triangular form was previously featured on GMTD (see 8.012 Spicy Tuna Samgak Gimbab).

I’m not a huge fan (I don’t like canned tuna except in an American tunafish sandwich), but it’s okay on occasion.

The classic ramyeon + gimbab combo (see generally 4.332 The Bunsik Bifecta).

First time eating at the restaurant (see also 12.008 Gimbab – Three Ways).
