This was so yummy! I’ve made grilled cheese and kimchi sandwiches before. But today I made your recipe; I didn’t have any cabbage, and I used a cheddar blend and orange american cheese slices . The scallions and cilantro along with the kimchi, runny fried egg, melted cheese, on crispy toasted sesame bread were amazing additions. This sandwich is comfort food to the max!
