The problem with the nacho gauntlet is those chips get soggy quick and they become so weird, like wet paper.

Yeah this is why I shy away from tbell nachos

The loaded potatoes or whatever, that's a side? gently caress yeah

Nacho challenge but sub in potatoes for the chips? :taco:

I've been super hungover all day but just got some taco bell. Am I the only one that struggles to eat at all, let alone mountains of fast food, when hungover? Anyway I still managed to eat 2 chicken soft tacos and 2 beef soft tacos. With more for later. Woo

My hangovers are actually usually me just destroying food, like I can eat forever, it's very weird

As promised quite a bit ago, I finally managed to make it to the Taco Bell here in Osaka. I've been here for work for about a month now, here are some pictures and trip report:








JAPAN TACO BELL TRIP REPORT: Was a bit of a trek but I found the Bae in Namba Dotonbori. The menu is limited compared to the states but the core flavors are there. I opted for the Cheesy Core Burrito combo with chicken, spicy level 3, and Mexican fries. I also grabbed the new Chickstar Crunch wrap.

Fries were just tossed in taco seasoning, nothing to write home about. The Chickstar was an interesting combination of textures; 8/10 would eat again. Star of the show was the Cheesy Core Burrito. It was like an inverted quesoritto, with the cheese down the middle and twice the size. Addition of red strips in the cheese core adds a welcome bit of crunch to break up the monolith of chicken and rice. The warm, safe, familiar flavors are a welcome change of pace from the onslaught of new and strange delicacies in this foreign land, where once-in-a-lifetime experiences and opportunities seemingly happen by the hour. You soon become desensitized to the beauty and wonder you're surrounded with, unable comprehend it all until you fall into an ennui at odds with your environment.

Sometimes you need a taste of home to remind where you are and how far you've come. Sometimes you need a tortilla full of rice and cheese.

:nice:

I was in that same building at another restaurant in May, and kind of regret not hitting up T-Bae-ll

i seriously said "WHAT THE gently caress" out loud when i saw they were getting rid of the 7-layer burrito. like, why??? 7-layer add jalapeno sauce and steak is the fuckin stuff of my adolescence

corgski posted:

I don't even get it because everything in the 7-layer is in other menu items that are sticking around as far as I can tell, like you have the ingredients right there.

right?! i hope we can just order it off the "secret menu"

but like, WHY are they getting rid of potatoes? literally anything on their menu with potatoes is fire

It's like a slurpee machine, but fully automated. The first lever dispenses Baja Blast, the second dispenses seasoned beef, and the third nacho cheese, directly into your cup.
