Chef Roy Choi, famous for bringing Korean tacos to the streets of Los Angeles, has a new venture: LocoL, which offers a fresh take on fast food, will open its second location in Oakland next week. It's a collaboration with Michelin Star Chef Daniel Patterson. 

As SF Eater reports,

LocoL's mission is ambitious, aiming to bring healthy and sustainable fast food to its communities, while offering jobs and training to underserved individuals. The menu is comprised of items like $5 burgers and fried chicken sandwiches, $7 noodle bowls, and $2 sides like corn chips, messy greens and rice.

Recently Choi recently sat down with Reason TV's Alexis Garcia to talk about the street food revolution.
