I can't recall the last time I had a meal at Tokyo Tokyo. Before I have discovered the joy of eating Japanese food (except for the raw dishes), Tokyo Tokyo is the only Japanese fast food where I can eat. I initially started with Tonkatsudon, or I should say it has been a consistent order as I was afraid to explore other dishes.
Few weeks ago, my sister and I decided to try Tokyo Tokyo after getting curious with shogun burger. Like any other industry or product, restaurants need to innovate menu to keep competing in the market so maybe this shogun burger is an attempt to do so and we bit the bait.
Nothing fancy about the packaging because what will matter is the taste of their burger of course. For a Php 100 burger it got to be more than just the quarter pounder or champ.
The black sesame seed bun is definitely a come on. Surprisingly the burger was good. The patty looked like it was grilled and it came with a terriyaki like sauce instead of the usual mayo. There was also a decent piece of iceberg lettuce on it. First bite went smoothly down, the 'umay' factor was not present and maybe its because of the sauce. It was a good eat paired with this:
In fact i think it would be a good idea to put some of the rings in the burger. The batter was crispy and its a good combination to dip it on the white tartar sauce. I can literally forget about the other stuff in their menu with these additions. Now I will have a reason to be back in Tokyo Tokyo. Oishi!
