Kogi?

Ever had a burrito with Korean BBQ meat inside?

Good meal.

Name: Kogi

Location: The streets of Los Angeles.

What are they known for: Korean style tacos, burritos, & quesadillas.

Price: Ranges from $2-7

My cousin Sylvie was first to tell me about Kogi and ever since she's been wanting to go. Well it's kind of hard since she lives far away, but when they were coming to Fullerton she notified me. Kogi travels in a food truck all throughout LA to different places and you can check out on their website or twitter where they're going to be for the week.

For me they were meeting at a local Shell gas station parking lot. They also usually come at night, like for mine they came at 10:30 PM. I went there with my sister and had to wait an hour and 45 minutes. The wait was I guess normal for the Kogi truck, so be prepared if you visit one. Once we finally made it to the truck we ordered a kimchi quesadilla (my favorite) ($5), short rib burrito ($4), spicy chicken taco (least favorite)($2), and spicy pork taco ($2). The food was greasy of course and definitely not the best to be eating at midnight. The quesadilla is the best in my opinion because it had the most flavor and was quite a lot for being $5. The tacos weren't to die for me and the

burritos were okay. Also a tip is bring your own drinks! It'll save you a couple bucks bringing your own drinks. So overall was it worth it? I think for your first Kogi experience it's worth it, but I wouldn't wait a whole two hours for the 2nd trip. It's definitely something new and interesting to try if you're into new types of food.

Breakfast food?

If you want fresh tasty breakfast food, never go to Denny’s & IHOP.

Good deal. Good meal.

Name: Kimmie’s.

Location: Brea & Fullerton, CA.

What are they known for: Breakfast food.

Price: Average meal ranges from $6-$10.

I’ve been to Denny’s & IHOP many times before and each time I was not satisfied; the food is dry, greasy, and unappetizing. I’ve heard of Kimmie’s a couple times so one day my friend and I decided to go check it out. The restaurant is pretty small so there might be a wait.

Unsure on what to get, I asked the waitress what’s good and she told me to try the country-fried steak, so I did. If you do not know what to order, ask the waiters since they know what’s popular and tasty. The country-fried steak came with two eggs, sautéed onions/bell peppers/ potatoes, and biscuits with gravy. It cost about $9. My friend ordered a grilled cheese on sourdough that came with French fries; that came to a total of about $6. I thought the portions would be small, but once our plates came out we understood why people enjoy Kimmie’s so much. It was a lot of food. The grilled cheese was super cheesy and the steak was delicious with the gravy on top.

The service was excellent. Even though there was only one waitress for the whole place she was able to accommodate everyone’s needs. Kimmie’s reminds me of a house out in the country, small and cozy. Also if you’re not a fan of breakfast food they also have burgers and sandwiches. Overall I really liked Kimmie’s and would recommend it to anyone who lives nearby. I was not able to find any coupons, but I heard that if you live in Fullerton you can find some special deals in the Clippers Weekly magazine, and also you can search online on their website. Kimmie’s is a local favorite and now I know why, it’s has a good breakfast meal that’s affordable at a good deal.

A side note to add, Kimmie’s opens early in the morning and closes early. I believe they close at 2 PM almost everyday, so you might want to get there a little early.
