oblivion 5 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I see Burger King have returned to Japan after running away a number of years ago. I quite like those every so often and now that Mos Burger have gone all tasteless it will be good to check out a BK. 50 stores or so in Tokyo in the coming year appearently.

fb_steve 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I just had a burger king whopper meal an hour ago.. it's the most up and down meal. Sometimes it's absolutely awesome, other times it makes a night out drinking turn into hours of feeling ill. Tonight it was ok! 50 stores! No way, that's massive! Go Mos Burger! The name alone is cool. Link to post Share on other sites

kaiser soce 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Beetroot makes a burger! I heard once that beetroot was really only used on burgers in OZ, is there any truth to that? Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 As far as I can tell, yes. Love those bacon deluxe burgers (is that what they were called), they are damn greasy and some time very shoddy, but generally very tasty And yeah Stevo, BK can be extremely up and down! They were forced to call Burger King Hungry Jacks in PErth. I heard that some small burger shop held the copyright for the name in Aus when they first came, but dunno if there is actually any truth to that... Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I loathe beetroot. In Oz I always have to specify "No ffing Beetroot". Yes, the Burger King story is correct, so you'll have to go to Hungry Jacks instead. Link to post Share on other sites

me jane 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I worked in Burger King in Germany while I was at uni. It was in one of the seedier areas of the city. Once had a man come down to the register, purple in the face shouting at us about how disgusting "it" was. Finally got him to calm down enough to tell us that "it" was that someone had been shagging a blow up doll in the men's toilet. Another time we had a guy come in with blood running down his leg, telling us to call him an ambulance. He had decided to store his unsheathed knife down his sock. It was the kind of place where we had to be careful not to clear away the customers bits of tinfoil when taking away trays. Then there was the prostitute who always used to go into graphic detail about her customers while waiting for her order... Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Boss had to "downsize" his staff. The choice was between Mary and Jack. He decided to confront them at the water cooler. Mary was the first to go for a drink. "I'm going to have to lay you or Jack off". "You'll have to Jack-off, I have a headache". Link to post Share on other sites

Error404 0 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Nishi Shinjuku somewhere. I think the 50 stores was within 3 years they are targetting. Link to post Share on other sites
quattro 1 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I was in Tokyo last week for meetings. Anyway I ran across the Burger King and a Krispy Kreme. The BK was located a few blocks up from the Hilton by the Love sign in Nishi Shinjuku. The Krispy Kreme was located across the tracks from Time Square near the Starbucks. Expect long lines at both places if you want you Fat Pill. Both places had sections roped off well away from the counters with long ques at each place. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Burger King and Krispy Kreme both near each other. That sounds rather dangerous. I haven't had a Krispy for a long time. Want now! Link to post Share on other sites
akafuji 0 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 I didn't have one - is it better than McD or like Mos Burger? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Much nicer than McDs (of course!) akafuji, and different from Mos but with Mos going all strange of late I could really do with a Burger King every now and again. Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 bacon deluxe double cheesburgers. probably one of the best hungover food options out there. now the "burger king" name trademark has lapsed in australia, we have differently branded shops, selling the exact same products. it's all very weird. what about wendy's? i reckon wendy's is alright Link to post Share on other sites
