These tacos were really good and I loved the unique twist. The quick-pickled cabbage was a great approximation of kimchee. The meat was on the bland side; next time I'll probably marinate it overnight. I served these as specified, but also added a bit of sesame seeds and sriracha sauce. Thanks for sharing this neat fusion recipe!
