BEK Tacos: A New Choice｜A Proposal from Okinawa

BEK's tacos present a new “food choice.”

・It's not a choice between Mexican cuisine or Japanese-style cuisine.
・It doesn't even fit into the categories of high-end or casual
・A different path made possible precisely because it originates in Okinawa

BLUE ENTRANCE KITCHEN offers a proposal originating from Okinawa: "This is another way to choose," through its tacos.

Tacos are not yet a fixed dish.

・A developing genre in Japan
・The definition is not yet fully established
・That's precisely why there's room to breathe.

One reason BEK chose tacos is that this dish hasn't yet reached its final form in Japan. Precisely because there's no established "correct answer" like with sushi or ramen,Room to propose new formswas left behind.

A position that is neither "authentic reproduction" nor "localization"

・Soil where cultures blend
・A place where boundaries are unclear
・A sense of embracing new things

Okinawa is a place that doesn't need to lean heavily on anything to exist. It's precisely this ambiguity that allows BEK's tacos to stand as "another option." Neither Tokyo nor overseas,From OkinawaThat's precisely why this proposal was born.

BEK's tacos aren't just creating new flavors.

・Mexico or Japan
・High-end or casual?

Neither of those,The option to not have to choose。
