We stealthily approach the sushi burrito truck under the cover of darkness... ok fine, we actually just walked up to the Jogasaki truck on Melrose.
Of all food trucks, Jogasaki probably has the most badass mascot, Mexican-Japanese fusion ninja. Look out!
Sitting before you are 3 Jogasaki sushi burritos. Jogasaki burrito number 1 (crab, spicy tuna, cucumber, eel, and eel sauce), Jogasaki Burrito Number 2 (shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, cucumber, crab, avocado), and the Jogasaki Shrimp Fiesta Burrito (shrimp tempura, crab meat, cucumber, avocado). Washed down with Thai iced tea and some secret Jogasaki hot-sawwwwce.

Mal going to town on the shrimp fiesta!
Jogasaki Burrito Number 2: delicious melt-in-your-mouth shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, crab, avocado. I'm about to lose my mind!!!

All in all my Jogasaki burrito experience was rather mind-blowing. Delicious sushi flavors, tempura-crunchiness all wrapped in thin soy-paper. I have no complaints. I can't wait to go back! This is perhaps my favorite food truck so far. The only negative thing about Jogasaki is that they are notoriously difficult to track down. After about a month of consistent twitter-stalking, it was finally in Hollywood and I had to pay it a visit. After the dust settled, I had consumed 3 whole sushi burritos, which was more than enough to satisfy my hunger -- truth be told, I was on the verge of exploding.
