"I described Passerotto as a boundary-breaking neighborhood restaurant in Andersonville and noted that lauded Chicago chef Jennifer Kim was its former owner." - Ashok Selvam
"Chef Jennifer Kim’s ambitious, critically lauded restaurant permanently closed after three years; known for Korean‑Italian fusion and recognized by Michelin and James Beard programs, the chef is exploring alternative hospitality models." - Naomi Waxman
"Chef and owner Jennifer Kim of Passerotto won Eater Chicago’s 2018 award for Chef of the Year." - Naomi Waxman
"Much like the philosophy chef/owner Jennifer Kim takes at Passerotto in Andersonville, Jeong won’t be traditional." - Ashok Selvam
"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
