"Johnny & Wesley go to Kogi Tacos"

I've been back to LA for only two days and I was hit with the KOGI virus.  Yes that's right the Kogi Virus.  It's the uncontrollable urge to squeeze a mouth watering korean taco into your mouth without feeling quilty the next morning.  Yes, I did say Korean Tacos.

It's the latest phenomenon to come out of LA since Boiling Crab and Pinkberry. It's simply korean bbq wrapped in a corn tortilla. Simply GENIUS!!!!

Kogi only sells their product out of a lunch truck and they go to various locations around So Cal on different times.  You can go onto their website and check it out.

I remember reading about it from Eric Nakamura's blog when I was still in HK but I didn't think it was catching on so fast. Here's an example of what it looked like when Kogi made their first appearance in Rosemead, Ca.

WTF!!!!!! Looks like a line for a club!

Unfortunately, by the time we got there it was sold out. We immediately found out that the truck was headed to Venice Beach at 10 pm so we decided to make it a TACO TRIP! Can somebody say "Harold and Kumar?" There's no stopping us now!!

In the meantime....That is what I call a pitcher of beer!!!

Vernice Beach, Ca. 10:00pm (Ever noticed that people in front of the line are always happier?)

10:05 pm

10:06 pm

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED........

So how did it taste??  You gotta find out for yourself!

BTW...kudos to the friendly staff that hooked us up with a free taco once they heard that we came all the way from Rosemead.  That's what you call service.
