Don't
let
appearances
deceive
you.
Hankook
Taqueria
is
a
little
rough
around
the
edges,
if
'rough'
means
a
veritable
shack
in
the
middle
of
nowhere.
There's
not
much
to
say
or
admire
about
the
ambiance
except
to
warn
you
to
expect
some
grunge.
But
for
all
that,
it's
easy
to
see
why
they
receive
so
much
love
from
local
diners
when
this
little
hole-in-the-wall
serves
up
some
solid
Korean-Mexican
fusion
fare
with
very
reasonable
prices.
Every
taco,
regardless
of
the
chosen
protein,
was
a
measly
$4,
which
made
it
easy
for
us
to
order
to
our
heart's
content.
The
husband
and
I
were
enormous
fans
of
the
fried
proteins
-
the
shrimp,
calamari,
and
chicken
-
because
they
weren't
only
well-seasoned,
but
also
a
little
hotter
in
temperature.
The
tofu
didn't
seem
to
receive
as
much
love
in
the
seasoning
department,
but
I
appreciated
its
presence
on
the
menu
for
all
the
non-meat
eaters
out
there.
What
surprised
us
most
were
the
sesame
fries,
which
can
be
ordered
both
as
a
side,
or
as
a
combo
with
two
tacos
(for
ten
dollars).
I
appreciated
the
barely-there
whisper
of
sesame
oil
(because
I've
seen
other
fusion
places
ruin
their
fried
taters
with
too
much
of
it),
and
there's
a
light
sprinkling
of
sugar.
Yes,
sugar.
You'd
think
it'd
be
strange,
but
it
added
a
little
something
special
that
set
them
apart
from
your
average
fry.
And
paired
with
their
chipotle
ketchup?
Delicious.
Service
was
efficient,
with
orders
taken
at
the
counter
and
having
them
delivered
to
our
numbered
placards
within
minutes.
On
a
random
Wednesday
night,
the
tables
were
surprisingly
full
of
hungry
diners,
and
there
was
a
steady
line
of
takeout
orders,
which
just
speaks
to
how
little
the
local
populace
cares
about
how
this
place
looks.
That
said,
the
parking
lot
out
front
is
a
little
small,
so
expect
to
get
a
little
creative
with
carving
out
space
for
your
car
if
there's
a
crowd
inside.
