Today I joined Twitter just so that I could track the whereabouts of the Kogi Korean BBQ taco truck. Is that foodie-crazy or what? It was worth the effort, however. I may be late to the Twitter game, but now I am in the know about where to get $2 tacos topped with beef, spicy pork, chicken and tofu -- all grilled Korean-style and topped with a zesty slaw. I traced the truck to Little Tokyo, where it was parked in front of the Japanese-American National Museum. Right next to it was an identical truck dubbed Baby Kogi, the newest addition to the mobile culinary family.
The truck had an ice box cooling the radishes, lime slices and Pacifico beer. I wished it also had offered some avocado, which would have been a smooth addition to the chicken taco. I liked the beef taco the best. The disadvantage of dining at a taco truck was that it didn't provide any cover from the winter rain falling on the City of Angels. I found shelter for my paper box of tacos under a canopy in front of a closed shop. As I scarfed down the messy treats, a tall blond guy walked by with his petite brunette girlfriend. "Kogi?" he asked me. "Is it good?" With my mouth full, all I could do was nod my head.
