next stop, little tokyo: kogi bbq truck pulling into town tonight (tuesday)
Kogi BBQ, the Korean-Mexican hybrid kitchen on wheels, has made a splash in LA’s dining scene since debuting just over a month ago.
With nearly 850 followers on Twitter, the highly mobile taco truck lets its fans know where it’s headed next while making its way across the city. In fact, Kogi has garnered so much attention on the blogosphere that several impostor trucks are now in the works.
I see a future Los Angeles where absolutely everything is served from a “roach coach.”
Korean marinated spicy pork, taco style ($2.00 each), is fusion nirvana. Or try the short rib burrito ($5.00), stuffed with the tender cuts of marinated beef. Daily specials range from a spicy chicken mole to vegetable stir-fry, though surprise dishes are never out of the question.
Luckily for us, Kogi is taking over Little Tokyo this evening (Tuesday) with a planned stop at 1st and San Pedro from 6:00-8:00pm. Be there, and find out what all the fuss is about.
Special thanks to Zina Hwang for securing the truck! Happy birthday!

Seriously though… I can attest to the tastiness of the short rib and spicy pork tacos.

And the wait tonight (45 minutes-plus) just proves that there’s a strong demand for it.
