"This dish became so popular in Okinawa Japan that it is spreading out all over Japan. And now it can be seen in a lot of restaurants and cafes outside Okinawa. Taco Rice was created in the 1980s by a restaurant owner who wanted to serve cheap but fulfilling food to American customers near a large US military base in Okinawa."
