If you have read my Shit List, you surely know that Tex-Mex restaurants occupy a prominent position in it. It appears though that Zapata, which used to be fairly good but too expensive for what it had to offer, on Sundays and Mondays has an all-you-can-eat deal that is impossible to beat. You can order anything on the menu for as long as you like, and still pay just 1980 yen. Drinks are a different story, of course, and I bet this is where they make a buck, because the quality and quantity of the food really leave nothing to be desired. We had everything on the menu, from Guacamole on and on to the desserts, which turned out to be the weak point of the meal.

Zapata is easy to find. Get out of Harajuku station, go towards Omotesando, turn right on Meiji Dori and walk on the left side of the street towards Shibuya. Walk a good 700 m and you will find Zapata next to the Crocodile.

Note: A year has passed and now they have different specials, but it is still more convenient than before.
