How did this little gem slide under the radar? CPK now in Korea!
January 16, 2008
California Pizza Kitchen now in Korea–Gangnam to be precise.
Perfect news for all pizza lovers of Seoul. Especially those liking the more untraditional fares like their Thai Chicken Pizza! Simply to die for.
And, apparently from their website–they’ve been open since November!
I was JUST talking to someone the other day about how CPK needs to come to Korea. I mentioned the case in point that Singapore has a few locations–why not Korea. I guess my wish was answered!
So, like all new businesses, the first few months are the most critical,–especially if they are paying the HIGH Gangnam rent. Go out and support these guys! Eat pizza and rejoice!
I tried it out on Sunday night for dinner. WOW!
The Honey Wheat crust was awesome. Barbecue chicken was great. I can’t wait to try some of their other offerings. I went ahead and signed up for the point card.
The pasta and salads look pretty darn good too.
Added bonus: It’s on my way home from work. I saw it months ago but didn’t bother going in (I didn’t realize it was an American chain. I thought some Korean company made it up) until now.
