Good Morning America: get your No. 1 spicy pork tacos here
Posted by Nancy Leson
Good Morning, Greater Seattle! -- now even greater since Good Morning America got a taste of Marination Mobile's spicy pork tacos and (with your help) crowned the 5-month-old taco truck "Best Food Cart in America." The local contenders waited for the good news Sunday morning with a crowd of well-wishers, and can be seen -- live from Seward Park! -- in the 4 a.m. hour when co-owners Kamala Saxton and Roz Edison joined a hard-core group of die-hard fans for a live feed in every sense of the word.
In the grand not-so-old tradition, Marination Mobile got everyone hot and bothered long before they got rolling, and those hungry for "Korean-Hawaiian Curb Cuisine" were soon in hot pursuit, following their every movement (forget the GPS, you can find them here).
Swift success culminated with the win this weekend as their spicy pork taco gained fame as Good Morning America's "Best Bite" -- an accolade sure to make those lines even longer.
Congratulations to the home team, who shared the recipe for their No. 1 pork tacos with the viewers everywhere and answered the question, "So, what's in your spicy `nunya sauce'?" with this spicy answer: "Nunya business!"
