These egg sandwiches are found in many street vendors and are the ideal grab n’go breakfast when in Korea. Each toast is made fresh to order, meaning it is hot and crispy when served.
Toasted sandwiches are the name of the game for Korean street breakfast egg sandwiches (韓式多士三文治 | 길거리 토스트), but expect more than your classic ham-and-cheese. With ingredients you don’t often find in a Western breakfast sandwich, there’s a generous helping of vegetables with an addition of cheese, egg, and ham- and topped off with a sprinkle of sugar and ketchup.
