Mexican Food in Japan: El Pancho

Come on down to the ole Shinsaibashi in Osaka for the best Mexican food in Japan (or at least in Kansai)! While Mexican food is hard to find in the land of the rising sun, this place really hits the spot for us foreigners who want a taste of home. It's really more like Tex-mex, but hey, it's still delicious.

Hey Annie, I know Japan is strict on their drug laws, but I wonder if that includes medicine too. Do they sell over the counter medicines, or at least migraine medicines? It scares me to go over there if I don't have anything to help my migraines >.<

Living abroad as well, Mexican food is the top food thing I miss from America. I know there's some Mexican place like 30 minutes from me, but I'm a bit afraid to try it. I'm from AZ, so our Mexican food is pretty authentic, and I don't even like Mexican food on the east coast, so in Europe, maybe not xD

You know what when I was in Japan I didn't eat much cheese either unless we were on base or at McDonalds. I didn't think much of it until you said something. You make me miss Japan. You're so very blessed to have such an experience.

Im mexican and I think they did a perfect job in the decoration of the place, by the way, Idk if anyone have been in Rosarito, but you really can find a place exactly like that one, so mexican.

You are right, I have heard quite a few exchange students at Kansai Gaidai talking about it, but I never knew the name! :O It looks really cool, hopefully I can go there one day! We actually found a restaurant near there that was based on the City of Perth in Western Australia (where I am from) called Blue Billabong which was quite an interesting place haha. A lot of people have not even heard of Perth (Sydney, the Gold Coast etc. are more well known)..Japan is full of surprises, ね！Great video!
