Kimchi Taco Truck's Kimchi TacosCelia Sin-Tien Cheng

What a combination! The Kimchi Taco Truck’s Korean and Mexican flavors are an unexpectedly delicious and savory pairing. This food truck offers a great deal, with three kimchi tacos for $7 or four for $9. Each taco is set on a base of two small corn tortillas and topped with a choice of meat, then Asian pico de gallo (with daikon, Korean pepper, rice wine and more), kimchi and green onions. The kimchi is fresh and adds a kick, while the cool salsa balances it out. The choices of meat include BBQ beef (my favorite), pulled pork and pulled chicken, and there’s also a vegetarian option of tofu falafel. This is street food at its best: delicious, inexpensive, and fun.
