    My wife and I Found you guys by accident 2 weeks ago and have enjoyed watching your visit to Japan. My wife is Japanese and I retired from Chicago to Kamakura last year. I worked 40+ years in technology industry for the Japanese and love my life here. Your channel has a solid respect for Japan and are spot on assessing life here. Great couple… mature and respectful. I’ll be looking at earlier travels soon. Entertaining!

    4:35 Cheveyo got the Limited time item for winter, 「Fuwa-toro Egg Demi-glace Gracoro」(ふわとろたまご濃厚デミグラコロ)
    It got soft fried egg and Demi-glace sauce which gives it the beef flavor. (the sauce is with beef) and グラコロ Gracoro.
    "Gracoro" is Japanese McDonalds' special winter limited item since 1993.
    It's a McDonalds special korokke. Gracoro means "gratin korokke". And it is a shrimp macaroni creamy white sauce gratin korokke.

    I love your videos. They’re informative but also really fun. But something in particular caught my attention this time. When Tia bites into her chicken burger she says, “Hold the phone!” I thought to myself, here’s a 20-something (I think I’ve heard her say 25 years old before?) American in a Japanese fast food joint uttering a old American saying here in 21st century. So I looked up its origin for the fun of it. This is from Quora: the term “hold the phone” goes back to the 1940s when newspaper reporters had to call in their stories to the office. A news story would break and they would ask to “hold the phone” while they got new information.

    I've been eating MOS Burgers for 35 years. Here's a few things your may not know. First, each store is designed by the owners. No two are alike and the look and style is unique. Secondly, the MOS burger does taste like a breakfast sausage because it is a blend of beef and port, I think 60/40. It used to be 100 percent beef but they cheaped out years ago to add greater profit to the chain. Not the same. Third, the best thing about MOS is the fried potatos. They never leave them sitting in a warmer and they are cooked as ordered. Super huge, three times the size of those nasty limp McD's and will burn your mouth if you eat right away...heavenly. Finally, they make milkshakes that are great. Moca (coffee) is to die for. Give them another try. Go for the huge Mos Cheeseburger (includes a chili sloppy joe type topping, and messy doesn't begin to describe it. And don't forget the fries. BTW, in Taiwan, they make special fries out of Sweet Potato. That's worth it's own trip. You're welcome.

    OK, now we are into my specialist subject of expertise! It's been a while since I was in Japan, but Mr Donut breakfast was a required start to every day! Ironically, favourite McDonalds item is the Samurai pork teriyaki burger in..... Thailand. Vietnam McDonalds has about 7 different sauces, which is awesome. Mos burger here in Singapore have a beef burger with a kind of bolognaise sauce which is fantastic, and they have the best fish burger too.

    The regular Mos Burger is not that great, but the Spicy Mos Burger (not spicy at all) is really good. Also, in Japan, you have to ask for the ketchup on the side and most McD and MOS has ketchup on the condiment counter. Some even have a sweet chili sauce too

    *Kare Pan (カレーパン fried curry bread) sold in every shoutengai(street market) and bakery. Hot crispy outside and curry filling! a perfect after school snack to pick up on the way home walking through the local shoutengai.
    *Korokke (コロッケ croquettes) and fried sausage/fried meat/karaage on a stick from butcher's shops! Butcher's shop korokke and snacks are worth a try! Butcher's shop also often seen in shoutengai. Sells very nice food to have on the go. Korokke is one of the most popular item.

    The “sankaku” (triangle) pie is seasonal. The have the beef stew pie this Winter, but my favorite is the bacon potato pie.
    And yes, you have to ask for ketchup, but mustard you’ll have to pay for it because they only have the mustard as an optional deeping sauce for the chicken nuggets. Oh!! They might still have the seasonal sauces for the nuggets (crab and the other one I can’t remember). You can have a little discount if you download their app.

    I think burger chains like MOS and McDonalds often has only a few items that is very good. So you have to know which items most of the locals really love.
    For MOS I used to like their Shrimp Cutlet Burger海老カツバーガー.
    For McDonalds I think Teriyaki burgers have been popular for a long time. And I've seen many people actually just loves the basic basic basic cheese burger or double cheese burger from them.

    When you get back to Melbourne from the wedding can you add a 3rd burger chain the this comparison?
    I suggest the Australian chain, Grill’d is similar to Mos burger in concept and certain what you see is what you get.
    Australian style burgers have a history in coming from what called a milk bar, which was literally a hot plate for cooking at the back of a local convenience store. They don’t exist anymore but the idea lives on in many a pub with an Aussie style burger being with “the lot”. 4 ingredients that are additional include sweet, pickled beetroot (compulsory, adds sweet-sour), bacon, egg and pineapple
    Hard to get one with the lot these days, but Grill’d has an “Almighty” which you can add bacon and pineapple to.

    When we stayed in Tokyo in 2014, the hotel restaurant was a Denny's. I think it was the Hotel Mets Komagome. My wife didn't join us the first night as she thought it would be typical American Denny's fare. There were no Grand Slam items or anything resembling their American menu. No heavy, greasy food. It was all very light and tasty. My then 11-year-old son loved the doorbell button for placing the order, then the teamwork in delivering the various ordered items.
    I've yet to try the Japanese versions of KFC, Mr. Donut, or Yoshinoya. Does Burger King or McDonald's still serve the various black bun burgers? I think squid ink is used to make the black buns.
    Looking forward to more videos!
