Truck Mayhem. There's maybe 20 new food trucks in LA, maybe more. Kogibbq, other Korean tacos, Japanese, ice-cream, shave-ice (it should have no D in it), and more...

Lunch breaks gotta be extended if you want to eat at a truck. I’m still not willing to wait it out. Martin got a shave-ice. It was good. I’ve also heard recent news that Baja Fresh is making Kogi Tacos. Read about it on laist.

If BF used Kogibbq Tacos, that would be a big time bust… but for now, this is what I think. Kogibbq still has lines.

US Border Patrol! I wonder if they say who the package came from? What's in there turtles from Hong Kong, maybe bootleg DVDs? No, it's Shinjuku Incident featuring Jackie Chan and Daniel Wu. I'll check out the film, but the Customs folks mangled the envelope! It's the price of freedom...
