“Two or three years ago, Korean food in Kentucky was limited to kimchi from Walmart or frozen food from Trader Joe’s,” said Jeremy Hubbard, the founder of Louisville Food Tour, who has been a food guide in the Louisville area for decades. “However, after the pandemic, when Korean-style fried chicken was frequently shown on media like Netflix, curiosity began to grow among American foodies (food enthusiasts), with questions like, ‘Is there a type of chicken we don’t know about?’”
CM Chicken’s most popular items are scallion chicken and garlic soy sauce chicken, which offer unique flavors previously rare in the area.
