Calbi BBQ Taco Truck / Los Angeles, Ca
Kogi Taco, Calbi BBQ, Green Truck, Let’s Be Frank, Nom Nom, Sprinkles Cupcakes… the world of Food Trucks is going to hell in a hand basket around Los Angeles! Try walking through downtown LA at night and you’ll spot a plethora of uniquely themed Food Trucks ranging from Korean BBQ to Indian Cuisine.
The craze started a little over a year ago when a Food Truck serving Korean themed Mexican food parked outside a popular night club and the craze took off faster than a Pink Berry like yogurt stand on your corner. Since these are mobile restaurants, you’ll have to track them down using the Twitter feeds or sites like findlafoodtrucks.com.
By far, the most popular Taco Truck right now is the Kogi taco truck, which has spawned several smaller imitators. I first attempted to grab a quick bite during lunch at Kogi, but seeing as the line was about 40 people long, we opted for the next best thing. Calbi BBQ!
Nothing snazy here. Just a food truck parked on the side of the street with sodas, waters and Korean beverages. Try ordering the Sac Sac orange juice without giggling. 
I ordered the beef burrito with a side of Sriracha for $5. Upon the first bite, only one thought came to mind. An Anthony Bourdain TV promo where he’s biting into an egg sandwich and says “I’m a total egg slut!”. The eggs in this burrito make such a nice complement to the Korean bbq beef that I couldn’t believe how good this thing was. Top it off with Sriracha and I was in heaven!
