Waiting in line is for suckers, but so is waiting for a bar stool

Kogi Kogi Kogi. With three trucks hitting the streets of LA, it’s hard not to ignore the hype that still surrounds these korean-mexcian fusion tacos since their conception almost a year ago. I’ve been following Kogi, and despite the three trucks and diverse locations, I still never have managed to make it to the right spot. Or have been hungry or desperate enough to wait in line.

Kogi BBQ's Short Rib tacos are worth the wait.

Sounds like a fantastic … more

Great hype. Meh food.

"Seriously, why do people like this place so much?! I hit the Kogi truck this weekend when they were in Culver City for an afternoon appearance. I was pretty excited for it too. I went to the truck once on a Friday night and gave up after seeing the massive line. But the other day I was up for the line. Thankfully I had good company because the best part of the experience was waiting in line. We cracked jokes and laughed the whole time. After about an hour and a half … more
