Five Spice Duck
Tender and trendy: Korean tacos

Every Wednesday, Meal Ticket pokes around the food blog world to see what's simmering.

-- Five Spice Duck doesn't post often, but when they do, it's so good. Drool over their version of Korean tacos, pictured above.

-- The Restaurant Club knows that nothing provokes comments like a discussion of service.� Add your rant/praise/damnation to this hoary chestnut, but don't forget, it's 20 percent.

-- Both Unbreaded and Living on the Vedge visit the new incarnation of Rick's Steaks in the Bellevue Food Court.� The 'Breaded boys delve into Rick's noble lineage, while Kelly White names a new, Pantone hue for the color of her seitan cheesesteak: "off-provolone".

-- Insatiable belly Adam Erace of Blogalicious visits Headhouse Market and turns up some tasty edible nasturtiums at Yoders Heirlooms. You, too, can mix up a fruit medley and top with the peppery blooms, or add some eye candy to a salad.

-- Feeling nostalgic for the revolting chewing gum trees of South Street?� Wear your devotion on your chest with this guaranteed-no-nookie T-shirt.� Via The Illadelph, who saw it on Serious Eats.
