Anyone here have Hispanic friends in Japan? Last time I went I didn't meet one hispanic. I went to all these mexican restaurants and no luck lol. I only met a Japanese girl that spoke decent spanish, which was pretty cool lol.

I don't have 100% Hispanic friends, and I'd imagine them to be slightly hard to find in Tokyo.. but if you go to the near countryside (like Saitama and Gunma).. it won't take that long to bump into Peruvian-Japanese, Bolivian-Japanese, or Argentinian-Japanese people.

Especialmente si trabajas en una fabrica.

Hmmm thank you very much for the info miss.

Ah, si puedo imajinar eso. Somos trabajadores!

I think I also heard of a bachata club in Shinjuku. I will surely scout that out :pompous:
And of course, the places you have recommended (y)

That's good enough dude lol. Brazilians are pretty cool. I've met a few back in the states. Haven't seen any recently though.

There's a very large Salsa community in Tokyo that brings in Spanish & Portuguese speakers.

I'm from Central California, I only saw Mexicans, Puerto Ricanos and some Salvadorians lol. And a few Brazilians. I'm mexican, but some people mistake me for a Hawaiin, Filipino, Thai or Cambodian. I think I may be half Salvadorian, I never met my father but I think he is Salvadorian lol

I used to go to La Jolla in Hiro-o. It was not amazing, but after not having Mexican food for a couple of years, it hit the spot. I wouldn't go as far as to say it was authentic, but if you're in the area it's worth it.
