Everything in Los Angeles seems to be on wheels -- including some of the best places to eat. Sadly, east-side favorite Taco Zone is out of commission following a fire -- no one was harmed, just the tacos -- and we look forward to returning to the Silver Lake staple soon. Meanwhile, today's top contenders.
● Kogi Korean BBQ - A blend of Mexican fare and Korean cooking, this truck has 31,000 stalkers via Twitter. With inventive cuisine like the Korean short ribs taco and taro chips made fresh daily, prepare to wait in line for an hour or more with the other disciples.
● The Green Truck - This eco-friendly taco truck serves locally grown, organic, sustainably raised meals and can even run on vegetable oil. But green doesn’t come cheap: The ahi poke tacos with citrus and cilantro marinade and pineapple salsa will set you back $11.
● Don Chow Tacos - Clearly inspired by Kogi, new-to-the-scene Don Chow Tacos pairs Mexican and Chinese cuisines. Try the soy-ginger tofu taco -- tasty as it is trendy.
