It’s 4:00 a.m. in L.A. Do you remember where you parked your car last night? Check the impound lot on Hoover. Welcome to polyglot Los Angeles. This is where L.A. son Roy Choi set the food world on its ear with his crazy mash up of the foods of his youth. <br />If you lived in L.A. during the seventies and eighties you often found yourself waiting to hear the opening notes of “La Cucuracha” outside your apartment or office building or construction site. The taco truck aka “roach coach” has arrived. You could run out and grab tacos al pastor, tamales or carne asada or even lingua wrapped in burritos. Choi took it to the next level through social media and his willingness to mix Mexican and Korean together. It worked startlingly well. This is my tribute to the Choi way of thinking. This recipe makes one breakfast burrito but is easily multiplied for everone sleeping on your floor after a holiday meal or big game day like the World Cup final. <br />
