Kogi May 13, 2010






So after seeing one of my coworkers mention the Kogi BBQ truck I tracked down when the Kogi truck was coming to the K-1 racing building in Irvine and invited him and some coworkers to experience Kogi. I had actually waited for them slightly over an hour the previous week when they visited the Bruery in Fullerton. I had the Kogi sliders, the Kogi dog and a short rib burrito in Fullerton. When the came down to Irvine, I had the short rib burrito again, but did the blackjack quesadilla for the first time.

I must say that I've found a new favorite at Kogi. I'm always a sucker for anything with a lot of cheese, so quesadillas have a special place in my heart. The Blackjack quesadilla consists of ooey, gooey, jack and cheddar cheeses enveloping spicy pork (not very spicy at all) and caramelized onions. All in a folded and toasted tortilla topped with Kogi's special Salsa Verde.


How long would I drive to get more? An hour. It's that good.
