"In Andersonville, Passerotto is Jennifer Kim’s restaurant that challenges diners’ expectations of Korean cuisine by fusing what she learned growing up with lessons from time at One Off Hospitality spots and travels to Italy. I noticed she serves her mother’s kimchi alongside a hefty, beautifully plated kalbi, and that she pushes beyond tradition with dishes like rice cakes served with a lamb ragu and offerings of cured fish. The result is a European-tinged approach to Korean food that makes the experience at Passerotto feel distinct from other Korean restaurants and adds valuable culinary diversity to Chicago." - Daniel Gerzina
