b.b.go! coming soon (apparently) as a fusion rice bar

:: b.b.go :: 

Address: 18th St and Ludlow, Center City.  COMING SOON.

Center City, it looks like we're getting a bibimbap haven by the name of b.b.go. at 18th & Ludlow. And soon! Korean food has crossed over; it's so totally mainstream now. IMO, the two things that helped to accomplish this were:

1. The accessibility and availability of BBQ grill meats like kalbi and bulgogi, and
2. Bibimbap - aka rice in a hot stone pot with meats and veggies all mixed together for a flavor explosion custom spiced to your liking with the accompanying hot red pepper paste sauce.

Can't be certain, but it looks like there will soon be a Philly eatery where you can get rice in a hot pot (or cold if that's your preference), and I suspect you will be able to customize your veggie and meat preferences.

As a Korean, and a lover of all things rice-y and meaty, these are the things I'm hoping b.b.go will include:

• runny fried egg to top off your rice, veggie, meat concoction
• interesting and inventive combinations (to really live up to the promise of "fusion" part of "fusion rice bar." Maybe like bacon and jicama or something, I dunno. Heh.
• other fried rice dishes like kimchi fried rice or spicy pork belly fried rice

Stay Tuned. I want. Now.
