WithSand is also a small shop that can be found in the underground of the Doryeom Building mentioned earlier. Although it’s small, it’s a competitive shop that focuses solely on sandwiches.
There are no seats available in the store, so it’s a place where you can only do takeout. However, due to the popularity of their sandwiches, during lunchtime, almost all sandwiches are sold out, leaving only about 1-2 sandwiches available. Therefore, if you want to try their sandwiches, it’s recommended to visit and make a purchase before the lunchtime rush.
