At Daddy's Shoes

Daddy's Shoes is the only bar where students hang out close to our seminar houses. This evening many of us gathered there for a few drinks and had a sad talk about how we all will miss Japan and each other.

My friends from this photos are from Sweeden, Holland, Italy, The U.S, and Japan.

This was actually my second time in this place. I just steped into this bar for first time 2 weeks ago. I usually can't stay there for too long since the plae is small and the cigarrete smoke really gets to my eyes, but afterall most people love this place and it has become the usuall local bar for Kansai Gaidai International Students.

At El Mostacho

The Friday before finals week, a few of us gathered and went to a Mexican Food Restaurant located in Makino, Makino is a town really close to Hirakata and our seminar houses.

We had a couple of Margaritas and ate some Mexican food. The taste of the food was acceptable although the prices of international dishes in Japan usually are a little "Takai" (expensive) their servings are regular size and it has its touch of spice.

It was a good time!!

Who is Daddy?

This is the owner of Daddy's shoes, a Japanese guy who trully loves the mix of cultures and treats all his guest at the bar with warmth and delicious drinks!!
He rides a Drag Star -Cruiser Motorcycle!!
Daddy's seems to love his American Style bar and has added its Japanese Taste to the bar environment!!
This was my first time in Daddy's Shoes. It was cool because there were not too many people, therefore the environment was melow and the bar was pretty much just for us. By coincidence we met with Mark Tracy and 2 of his Japanese friends. I had two Special drinks, Daddy's didn't want to tell me the ingredients, but it was quite tasty!! A really enjoyed and had a good time with Qwen's and Francesco as well.
