The Best Restaurants In Rogers Park - Chicago - The Infatuation

"If a few rounds of karaoke (and soju and beer) lead to you feeling like a less-than-functional human the next morning, revive yourself at Kimchi Pop. This tiny spot is on a quiet strip of Glenwood and makes delicious stews, bulgogi, and kimchi pancakes. The soondubu is packed with umami, a little spice, and silky tofu—the perfect remedy for a hangover. We also like their kimchi fried rice with spam, as well as the ddeokbokki. There isn’t a lot of room in their space filled with Thomas Kincade-esque paintings and colorful paper lanterns, but the unlimited self-serve banchan is worth grabbing a seat." - john ringor, veda kilaru
