"In early 2022, chef Eric Park and his wife Miriam opened a minimalist cafe that pays homage to New York City bodegas while deftly weaving Korean and SoCal influences into its casual menu. Kim’s sandwiches are the stars, from a spicy house-made pork bulgogi roll to a classic chopped cheese and a Big Apple-style bacon, egg, and cheese on a toasted roll. The coffee, sourced from Korean American roaster House Roots, is drawing raves, too." - Rebecca Roland
"Chef Eric Park’s bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich is a standout at this busy Silver Lake shop. But the chopped cheese is a SoCal version of an NYC classic on a pressed hero roll with chopped beef, American cheese, grilled onions and jalapeños, shredded lettuce, tomato, ketchup, and mayo. Both are equally delicious and served all day." - Eater Staff
"Chopped Cheese "Bodega Park's [version] is a little cleaner than a chopped cheese you'd get in New York, but I think that caters to the LA market. What's awesome is the jalapeño. The lettuce and tomato cut through the rich fattiness of the meat. Then they add the perfect amount of cheese, which melts it all together. I mean, a chopped cheese is a chopped cheese, but I think they do it really well. And there aren't many places in LA where you can go get one. You're not gonna feel great after eating it, but you also won't feel terrible." - brennan carley
"Chef Eric Park’s sandwiches pull influences from New York City, Korea, and Southern California. His chopped cheese is a love letter to the NYC classic, piling chopped beef patty, American cheese, grilled onions and jalapeños, shredded lettuce, tomato, ketchup, and mayo on a pressed hero roll. Former New Yorkers, beware: This sandwich might come with an overwhelming sense of nostalgia." - Eater Staff
"A sandwich shop that combines New York staples like chopped cheese and bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches with unique offerings such as a pork bulgogi roll and a Peruvian-style chicken breakfast burrito." - Eater Staff
