Empire Building

Kogi Gunning for Yoshinoya’s Ground

More details have emerged on the brick ‘n mortar empire extension Kogi is planning in West L.A. The Korean taco-slingers’ Alice Shin chewed the fat with Eater and despite the hyper-advanced criticism of one of our dear readers, is not shying away from the “rice bowl” concept, to which SinoSoul’s Tony tells us there won’t be a lot of SGV heads hitting it up in a hurry. Shin spills the news that Kogi’s food will be, “Yoshinoya 5.0…Very straight up, very fresh and very L.A….There will be rice. In a bowl. With some very interesting additions on top.” We find it hard to believe Kogi would do something solely standard and await the ingredient revelations to justly gauge their ability to blow minds a second go-around and sum up our city in one new bite.
