Earlier last July, it was reported that the popular fast food chain is opening its first ever restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand! We wonder when they’ll come to Malaysia! #fingerscrossed

For those of you who aren’t aware, Taco Bell is one of the most popular fast food chains in the United States, serving delicious Tex-Mex food like tacos, burritos, and nachos, among loads of other dishes. The chain is owned by fast food giant Yum! Brands Inc., which also owns KFC and Pizza Hut.

So, it looks like Taco Bell just got a whole lot closer to us. Road trip, anyone?
