Mexican Food in Seoul

It is not easy to survive for Vegetarians in Korea and Japan. Most of good or popular dishes are based on meat or seafood.

My friend who is vegetarian visit here with his family and whenever I choose the restaurant, I tried to find one where we can find some veggie food.

Fortunately his wife and kids are not strict vegetarians, so still easy.

Vatos which he found while we were wandering near the Korean food court, was quite good choice.

I tried Mexican only in the States, never outside of USA. There are lots of many ethnic food in Korea and everywhere in the world, so I did not really focused on Mexican food after I left US.

My memory on Mexican food has been faded away in the meantime, and another reason that I did not try it in Korea was that ethnic food does not have same taste like in the country of origin, sometimes.

Vatos seems franchise restaurant, one in Itaewon and another in Jamsil, at which we had lunch.

It was very good, we all enjoyed the tacos and drinks. Specially kids ate them all! They were eating Korean all the time since they arrived, so it was good changes, I guess.

Anyone who would like to taste other food than Korean, in Korea. Please try this. I also liked the friendly staff.

In Los Angeles Korean tacos can be found all over the place, it’s good to know Korea also has its share of tacos.
