Party Q’Sadilla

This truck is pretty good.
They have the seoul roll, which is a super light tortilla wrapped around your choice of chicken, beef or shrimp. Get the shrimp. The shrimp is easily the most flavorful of the proteins (and the most healthy). Inside the tortilla is also just enough kimchi to give it a kick, but to not overwhelm the protein. The cheese in it also made it pretty tasty. But when does cheese make something bad?
They also have a fish bowl, which is basically a super generous amount of sauteed fish served on top of rice. The fish was well seasoned, moist and tender. At 7 dollars it’s kind of expensive, but when you compared it to the other food trucks, its actually a pretty generous amount of food.

I had ordered one of their rice meals, it had rice, bulgogi, an egg, and pickled vegetables in it. It was a fairly large portion. Quite filling. And it was perfectly spicy. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and would get it again if I was craving Korean food.

UPDATE: 8÷8÷2010 — Though the truck still looks the same, it no longer sells quesadillas! They’re switched over to a completely Korean homestyle menu. I didn’t get a chance to try it yet, but it is a welcome change.
A decent quesadilla for an indecent price.
I spotted this truck at Sawtelle and Olympic on a random weekday afternoon, across from fellow food trucks Eat Phamish and Komodo. Always eager to try a new truck, I was soon in front of the bright orange vehicle, looking over the menu.
I opted for a regular-​sized quesadilla ($ 6.50), with beef (+$ 1.00) and mushrooms (+$ 1.00). Other options for toppings included chicken, pepperoni, jalapenos, olives, and kimchee. I found it a little strange to pay the same price for each. You could also get these ingredients in taco, burrito, or rice plate form.
As far as quesadillas go, this one was quite respectable. The tortilla was crisp, nicely browned, and not too oily. Thoroughly melted American and Swiss cheeses made for a gooey interior and that nice, stretchy pull from the teeth. Slightly less pleasing were the beef and mushrooms. The meat’s flavor, while savory on its own, didn’t come through the cheese, and I found the mushrooms to be just plain off. It didn’t taste all that fresh. Still, the oozing cheese and doneness of the tortilla made it an overall enjoyable experience.
I thought it was overpriced when I bought it, but I gave it a shot, hoping that there was something spectacular underneath the seemingly simple concept. Unfortunately, my faith went unrewarded today. I have no problem forking over $ 10+ on more creative and/​or luxurious creations (more exotic cheeses, duck, or even a distinctive salsa!), but I won’t pay upwards of nine for such a simple package that a greasy spoon down the street can do bigger, and more cheaply.

*** Look out, there goes that truck! ***
It is that late nite taco truck with style.
Is it Kogi? No. Is it Mexican? No.
Is it one-​of-​a-​kind? Yep, it’s new.
It’s bright orange and in demand.
I caught it tonite on Abbot Kinney …
it was parked just outside of The Brig.
At 1am they had just run outta meat. ;(
Dude said «I gotta enough for one taco».
I said «what meat»? He replied «chicken».
I was in heaven. «Let’s do this» I quipped.
One lousy taco after a late night drinking?
Whoa, this taco was extra special, I think.
It was loaded … it was like a mini burrito.
I could hear birds sing, ocean breezes.
Damn, this taco was friggin awesome.
*** Kogi, beware the orange truck! ***
