Waiting For Taco

Finally, the famous Kogi taco truck comes to Torrance! Actually, I think it might have been here before, but this was my first time to check it out. I'd been hearing about the truck--which serves tacos with a Korean twist--on local food blogs and other places for a while and I was anxious to see for myself what the buzz was all about. Dale signed up a while back for their Twitter feed, so he was alerted that they would be making a stop in Torrance from 6-9pm.
We headed over to the location--next to the Toyota plant--at 5:30. We were about 10th in line. After a bit, someone got an alert that said they would be there by 6:45. People just kept coming and coming. The location is sort of in an industrial park, not on a busy street--so you'd have to know it was there. By the time the truck arrived, there were easily one hundred people in line.
After waiting for an hour.....the truck est arrive!

Once the truck stopped, it was another 20 minutes or so until the doors opened.
A simple menu with good taco choices.

After you pay, you get to wait some more. Everybody was cool and in a good mood.
We were soooooo hungry! We got Korean BBQ rib (on the right), chicken and pork (on the left).

The rib and chicken meat was a typical Korean BBQ-style, the pork more of a Mexican style. All were topped with a salsa of sorts made from napa cabbage, sesame oil, green onions, cilantro. 

Each one was really good and for two bucks apiece...worth it.

On the way home, we stopped at Foster's Freeze for a Twister and ran into one of the people that had been waiting in line with us.
