The Korean-Mexican mashup concept is almost everywhere now across the United States. The Korean-Mexican concept might sound quite disgusting to some people, but trust me it is one of the best food mash up creations ever made. It started with taking traditional Korean BBQ beef(bulgogi) and putting it in a taco thanks to the Kogi food truck based out of Los Angeles. Besides the Kogi truck in Los Angeles, you can find Korean taco and burrito concepts in New York, San Francisco, Austin, and now Washington D.C. TaKorean is Washington D.C.'s only Korean taco truck and restaurant. At TaKorean, you can sample Korean tacos, rice bowls, slaw bowls, or half and half bowls. You can choose from a variety of fillings which include Korean marinated chicken, bulgogi beef, bo ssam pork, or hoisin marinated tofu. There are three kinds of slaw to choose from which include kimchi style cabbage slaw, a Napa cabbage and Romaine lettuce slaw with sesame oil and vinegar, and a spiced kale slaw featuring shredded kale, purple cabbage, and shredded carrots with a soy sauce and Korean chili flake dressing. TaKorean keeps the toppings simple by having toasted sesame seeds, fresh cilantro, lime crema, and sriracha sauce. TaKorean uses the best and freshest ingredients they can source to create delicous, healthy, and reasonably priced cuisine. TaKorean started as a food truck serving the hungry masses working in Washington DC. You can follow the food truck on TaKorean's twitter account to find out where and when the food truck is open for business. Besides the food truck, TaKorean has two permanent locations located at the Navy Yard and at Union Market. You can feel good about eating at TaKorean as they give 1% of their gross sales to local non-profit organizations which shows their dedication to the greater Washington DC area. You can get great food and feel good about it as well which is always good. TaKorean is a must try for the DC foodie or anyone who is willing to give their taste buds a wild ride. Give TaKorean a try and I guarantee you will want to eat their food again.
