Where oh where did the wonderful Raul of King Taco of Ilsan go? His were truly the very best burritos when one considers the cost:deliciousness ratio. He told me he was thinking of Osan or Itaewon, but I can't find him and I lost his number.

Any help, juseyo?!?!!?!!! Very Happy

Use google, google is your friend, google would never hurt you.
Looks like they might have gone to Apgujeong

I think I will see if I can find Raul. I loved his food as well. It really sucked when he closed down... It's too bad I didn't know he was in the Apgujeong area....

There is a King Taco in Apgujeong- not sure if it's the same guy but I can assure you that the food is good there and well-priced. If it helps, he told me he learned English in Kenya at Int'l Schools.

I just fleshed out directions on the wiki article a little.

As for if its the same guy as Raul, I don't know. But the King Taco opened in Apgujeong around Jan/Feb of 2006, if not a little before then. Maybe someone in Ilsan can confirm if they've been to the King Taco at La Festa since then.

That can't be Raul. Raul lived in California. So, I guess, Raul didn't open up a place? He told me he was thinking of doing it at Pyongtaek. I wish I didn't lose his number.

Thanks all for the replies, but too bad we can't seem to track Raul down... anyone willing to pass along his phone number would earn my deepest gratitude.... cheers.
