Curious since I've never heard of it, I tried the carnitas torta today. Would've preferred hot meat (and more meat, that's always the case) but it wasn't bad. I never noticed the chef specials, neat to have something a little different from the normal menu. I just wish Tomatillo's wasn't so damned expensive in terms of lunch.
The horchata, something else I've never had before, was definitely nice. |

I tried Taco Man, the place in Hongdae from the link above, and was both surprised and bummed that I didn't know about it before. They serve authentic tacos like you might get at a taco truck or stand, just a corn tortilla, carne asada, onions, cilantro and salsa (very spicy but good). Tables are set up outside. I talked with the owner and he seems like he's trying to do it right, everything is hand-made and grilled fresh, even the corn tortillas, which really surprised me.
Since the blog post they have raised their prices, now 3,000 won for a taco. They've also added burritos and quesadillas to the menu, which I didn't try. Here's a cut and paste with directions from the post, starting from the main gate of Hongdae.

"If you want to check it out, it�s right behind the Purgio building. When you�re at the big intersection facing the campus, take a left at the Hana Bank and the next immediate left between Nescafe and Starbucks. Then walk straight and take a right at the Italian restaurant (forgot the name). Taco Man is right next to a Japanese ramen joint, which is next to a Family Mart." |

I actually skip on the salsa, as I find it's overwhelmingly spicy, but that's just me. |
