the restaurant at the back of the van...

Do you ever notice how during the day, things seem to look ordinary and the scenery never seems to change? Contrast this to what you discover at night. This business is possibly what we would call in the states "a roach coach" however, parked on a street corner with lanterns adorning the tailgate was a mobile restaurant serving assorted pork fair...
I have to give two snaps for the eye catching micro bus...as for the food...it really isn't fair to comment since I tend to eat only in a place I can have a seat in and I wasn't sure that I wanted to get in on the passenger side of this conveyance.

What's interesting is:

a) the writing on the side of van ("おいしいタコヤキ") isn't Korean, it's Japanese!!

b) Actually, it's selling "takoyaki(!)"; which is Japanese street food (which makes sense on the context of a above). It's grilled octopus in pastry/batter balls, not pork at all. I guess that's a caricature of an octopus on the side of this van.

c) They're delicious, you missed out on a good opportunity. ;-)
