Tacos de Aomori y coctelería con especias
HAPPY STANDARD (ハピスタ) es un café y bar de tacos en la plaza Passage de la calle Shinmachi, en Aomori, abierto a finales de 2024. Durante el día sirve sus originales «tacos de Aomori» y taco rice, que combinan la tortilla mexicana con productos locales como el ajo y la manzana de la región, con carnes y salsas sin aditivos.
Al caer la tarde se transforma en un bar donde brillan sus cócteles caseros con especias, como la cerveza o el whisky al cardamomo. Una propuesta divertida y con identidad propia, ideal para descubrir los tacos con un guiño al norte de Japón.

Hands down best Japanese inspired tacos ever, especially paired with their homemade hot sauce! Atmosphere was lovely and the staff were also very lovely. Will definitely be coming back on our next trip to aomori! ❤️

5 months agoVery interesting little resto/bar! Got drawn in by the tacos, but keep thinking about the spiced drink. Was open a very limited number of days when I visited last year so I had to check them out!
First things first, the tacos: tasted fine, uses a soft shell. It didn’t have any meat (i think) but had a crunchy ingredient that made it interesting. The hot sauce was actually hot! Huge plus.
Cardamom beer: Really interesting beer. The cardamom flavor really comes out!
Spiced sour: As I was consuming the tacos, I got a whiff of a really interesting ginger smell and I decided that I wanted it. I (correctly) assumed that it was the spiced sour and I was right. It was really refreshing and felt like punch.

Cozy and inviting atmosphere, homemade Cardamom beer, Cardamom whisky, and the tacos are delicious. Being American, sometimes I miss the taste of Taco Bell, Del Taco, etc. These tacos have a soft, fresh flour tortilla, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes. They also provide a small bottle of hot sauce with a flavor that you wouldn't expect in Japan. Go get you Aomori tacos!

The owner also infuses his own drinks, and I got the cardamom soda, which was very refreshing and went well with the tacos.

8 meses agoAdd this to your itinerary! Good food, good service, good vibes. Innovative menu - tacos are fresh, tasty and dont feel heavy, and they have a specialty for spiced drinks not found anywhere else. Good music and chill atmosphere, friendly staff. Worth visiting either for a daytime meal or post dinner supper (since most places close early here). Enjoy!
