Korean Tacos in the ATL

I am so excited to be trying, for the first time, a Korean style taco here in Atlanta this weekend. I have been hearing about all the amazing food trucks that serve big cities around the US and have always felt slighted that Atlanta hasn't caught on to it.

I read about the buzz in LA with the Kogi taco trucks and how amazing the taste is. So I was excited when I started reading about Atlanta's own Hankook Taqueria. While it is not a moving taco truck and sits in a plain storefront, I keep reading good things.

From what I understand they only serve lunch as of right now.
Your choice of Chicken "Dak Gogi" marinated in Spicy Korean BBQ
Beef "Bul Gogi" marinated in Korean BBQ
Pork "Dae Ji Gogi" Pulled pork with Spicy Korean BBQ
Fish "Saeng Seon Jeon" Panko crusted tilapia with hoisin tarter
Tofu "Tubu" crispy tofu

Then you have a choice of 2 dressings:
1. Lettuce, green onion, green cabbage tossed in soy sesame vinagrette
2. Yellow onion, cilantro and lime juice

They offer Burritos stuffed with fried rice kim chee with the above dressing choice

Quesadilla's chicken , beef or pork with sour cream and jack cheese

Then some apps/ street snacks
Fried Dumplings with ginger scallion pork filling
Vegetable stir fry potato noodles with sesame soy sauce
Rice and pusan fish cake in spicy broth
Tempura fried korean sweet potato
Rice, sesame veggies and spicy korean sauce
Soba noodles w/veggies and red pepper vinagrette

Hopefully i will some photos after i visit this weekend.
