korean bbq taco's???

we have been wanting to try kogi taco's for a long time. they first started in la and we saw them on tv, with really long lines. you have to look at their website to see where the truck will be located. we found out that they sometimes come to the oc on the weekends but were so busy it never seemed to work out. this week we found out they now have a new truck (with a big orange on the side) that comes to the oc every night (closed on sun and mon). they would be in irvine last night so we knew we would have to check it out!!! we were confused on the location but when we finally arrived we were a little shocked to see the very long line...

lots of people left the line and it didn't seem like we moved very much but we did see people pass us with their large bags of food. i thought we would have only an hour wait but it turned out to be 2 hours. the truck was scheduled to be at this location from 6-9. we arrived at 8, just 10 people from the end of the line. The last person was given a sign saying no more people could join the line (he got 3 free taco's and 2 drinks). This was given out around 8:30. the truck was supposed to arrive at the next stop in orange at 10:30 and stay till 12 but was packing up with hopes of arriving at 11!!!

it was sort of a hard decision on what to order. wanted to try a variety of items since the long wait and didn't know if we would come back. we didn't want to get too little and leave hungry. there was no way to order again... we had lots of time to think about it and we were starving!!! after all it was almost 10p!!! omg!!!

wow, almost there!!! last run through on what to order...

finally, we can order after waiting in line 2 hours, yes 2 hours

the menu

this was the special *Spam-a-lot short rib burger*

coconut lime chili spread, short rib, spam, cheese, grilled mushrooms

onion line cilantro relish

since it was the special we decided that we must try it...

the burger was good, needed more meat, not sure if i would get it again...

black jack quesadilla

spicy pork, cheese and a verde sauce

it one of the best things we ate, the sauce had a hint of coconut and was not very spicy

the taco's

we chose 3 korean short rib and 1 spicy chicken

they looked really small for $2 each but they were very good and filling

they were both spicy but not too much, lots of flavor and a interesting

combination of korean and mexican

it was a lot of food but all very good, already know what to order next time

would we wait over 2 hours again??? yes!!!

happy 2nd birthday!!!
