Personal life
In 2011, Mike Eng commented publicly on the name given to a food delivery service started by two UCLA students, "Ching-Chong-Ling-Long Gourmet Takeout". He stated, "Stereotypical phrases such as these perpetuate misunderstandings about Asian Americans and intensify hurtful sentiments toward this community". The delivery service in question was subsequently discontinued after pushback from Mike Eng and several UCLA student groups.
