In the realm of fusion cuisine, Korean and Mexican food stand out as particularly versatile cuisines. The often spicy, sweet, and salty profile of Korean food lends itself quite well in almost any dish. Mexican food, equally as distinct and delicious, holds a number of dishes that can act as a platform for any ingredient. Tacos, burritos, tortas, and so many more dishes, are flexible options that can technically be filled with anything under the sun. At the Long Beach Exchange, the Korean BBQ experts at Marinate have combined all these wonderful elements in their new Bulgogi Burrito, which will be available for a limited time.

The casual KKBQ joint is known for their juicy bulgogi, rib eye beef that’s been marinated in Korean spices and thinly sliced. They use Los Angeles staple’s Quarters Korean BBQ house marinade, and cook up the beef on a giant, open fire grill right in front of you — a perfect visual to really coax your appetite.

After being grilled, a generous portion of the bulgogi is paired with homemade kimchi fried rice and gets nestled all in a warm tortilla. Fried egg and cheese round out the default fillings appropriately, making for a complete and satisfying burrito.

From there, it’s up to you. Marinate has a host of banchan (Korean side dishes) that can be added to any burrito, like kimchi and pickled radishes. Fresh veggies, like corn, shredded carrots, and cucumbers, can, and should, be added as the dose of freshness creates a perfect balance. You can also punctuate the whole experience with any of Marinate’s five sauces, like the Korean favorite ssamjang.
