It is kind of sad, but I am actually excited about this from Japan Today:
Good news for burger lovers. The world’s No. 2 hamburger chain, Miami-based Burger King, makes its long-awaited return to the Japanese market on June 8 when it opens at Nishi-shinjuku (Shinjuku i-Land). A second restaurant will open June 22 in Ikebukuro.Burger King was forced to quit the Japanese market amid a price war in 2001, but is now back as a group company of Lotte and Revamp. The ever-popular Whopper will be the mainstay of the menu, which is almost the same as in the U.S. The size of the Whopper will be the same, too. Burger King will be using 100% New Zealand beef in its patties which are flame-grilled.
