Taco trucks are about as much a part of LA life as traffic and name dropping. But theses days all we hear about is the Korean Taco Truck that you find by subscribing to it’s twitter feed. If you want the low down, this is a company called KoGi that’s got an interesting mix of Korean BBQ wrapped up in corn tortillas. We haven’t got a chance to try one yet, but if you have let us know if this is the real deal or just a lot of hype.

The Hilton Maldives Resort & Spa has recently completed one of the more unique restaurants we have ever heard of. Guests of the Ithaa restaurant enjoy 360 degree views of the Indian Ocean as they enjoy Maldivian-Western fusion cuisine. The intimate setting seats only twelve so book well in advance. – Via Stranger Worlds. Thanks Liz.
