I Want The “Tokyo Tower Burger!”

I miss traveling. I miss trying unique food.

I miss the “Tokyo Tower Burger.”

“What The Friday?!?!?”

Yes, a big stacked burger is tough to beat…and if I could fly to Tokyo right now, I’d head directly to MOS Burger to see if they still sell the “Tokyo Tower Burger.”

MOS Burger is one of the largest fast-food chains in Japan – and they are incredibly inventive when it comes to their food – so a few years back, when they wanted to celebrate their new outlet in the 1,093-foot Tokyo Tower’s food court, they had to come up with a burger worth the title.

First, here’s the gorgeous Tokyo Tower:

1,093 feet tall with spectacular view of Tokyo surrounding it.

Their recipe to match up to it was this!

Climb All 14 Stories!

The Tokyo Tower Burger was 14 stories of greatness:

• Bun
• Lettuce
• Hot chili sauce
• Chopped onion
• Mayo
• Patty
• Very wide tomato slice
• Hot chili sauce
• Onion ring
• Ketchup
• More chopped onion
• Pastrami bacon
• Patty
• Bun

It reminded me that the best, most wildly stacked burger always seem to come from Japan!

Remember When Japan’s Lotteria Restaurant Chain Released The “Burger With Everything On It?”

Yes, that’s a true statement! This burger literally has everything on it! As they described it:

“The Burger with Everything on It has four patties: regular hamburger, cheeseburger, fried shrimp, and rib. More hearty deliciousness come from bacon, sliced cheese, and a soft-boiled egg. The towering burger also checks off the food pyramid’s vegetable section with lettuce, cabbage, tomato and onion. Finally, in keeping with the burger’s magnanimously inclusive attitude, the sauce is a mix of teriyaki, regular mayonnaise, spicy mayonnaise, tartar sauce, meat sauce, and ketchup!”

A “Fried Shrimp” Burger is heaven to me.

Of course, Lotteria wasn’t new to this “towering burger stack game”:

Yes, Lotteria has always loved to stack a burger, and they love to let someone else do it as well.

YOU.

So, they had “build a burger” that allowed you to create a massive burger tower in any way you wanted – and I wanted it like this:

And finally, there was the Tokyo “Tower To Heaven” that you had to see to believe:

When would it end? Apparently, NEVER.

Now, I love a burger that towers over me – who wouldn’t want to try and do battle with this?

That said, sometimes incredible flavor can come in what appears to be a small package…here’s an example of something I bit down on the last time I was in Tokyo:

Behold A “Wagyu Beef Burger!”

Yes, I tried one of the when my wife and I went to Tokyo a few years ago – and we also checked out the incredible Kapabashi district, where you can buy this as well:

Yes, it’s a plastic burger! Click here to see where I found it – and see the Wagyu Burger up close as well:
