mexican food

Pretty sure that I have previously bemoaned the lack of Mexican food in my part of Japan. I haven't sought it out in Tokyo, but Osaka is barren for the stuff. There was a shop called Pink Adobe in Osaka, and I found that there was a branch in Kobe. When I went there on Saturday, our first trip to Kobe in nearly a year, Pink Adobe was out of business, the storefront featuring the kind of gutted appearance of a shop that has been cleared out for some months, and the new inhabitants of the space not yet decided.

All this by wayward way of saying, I would dearly love a burrito right about now. Preferably big and smooshy, with a lot of sour cream and maybe chili colorado.

...

This is SO not helping.

Waiting an hour is about the norm for El Torito in San Jose as well. It's not bad, but it is to Mexican as TGIFriday's is to traditional Americana food. My favorite burritos are from the side-deli in a Mexican corner shop in Santa Cruz. Yummy, with a capital "yum."
