Furumachi Dori 3-bancho, Chuo-ku, commonly known as the Kamifurumachi area. Do you know FURUMACHI KENS BURGER located in one corner of the area? If you have passed through Kamifurumachi, you have probably seen the red walls and funky exterior at least once. It's a restaurant with a huge impact.

'You should definitely go to that restaurant. The quantity, the taste, it destroys all your preconceived notions of what a hamburger should be."

We went there based on shocking information brought to us by a source.

Furumachidori 3

Location.

Funky appearance at a glance. Expectations are high.

Let's eat!" As you enter the restaurant, the first thing that catches your eye are the pictures of the burgers and fries displayed at the entrance. The delicious-looking pictures are spread all over the walls, and they are very appetising. There is also a wide variety of Mexican tacos, although they are not shown in the photo.

Burger menu. As a matter of course, all items are available in a 'jumbo' size, which almost blew me away. And it's written before the small size (normal size) (laughs).

I can only think of this as a gentleman's agreement with the restaurant and order from the menu of my choice. So I ordered the Furumachi Special Burger 'Jumbo'. (*This is a selfish belief of the author. Order what you like.)

Well, the sources were certainly right. This volume can be seen from the photo. And the juiciness. I already have the feeling that I'm glad I came. I see, I see, you were talking about this.

Huh...? What the hell...

Double the meat, MAD burger!

Oh, look, there's a menu called 'MAD'. Apparently, MAD is a menu item with twice the meat. When combined with the other ingredients, it's incredibly thick! It's crazy (MAD)..!

N? "CRAZY JUMBO"...?

It was more MAD than I thought it would be.

This majesty. Sun Tzu says: "If you know him and know yourself, you will not be in danger in a hundred battles". I didn't have enough information and preparation. I would have loved to report on this, but I'll do it next time... I wonder how the 'KAMIFURU Gotchisou Burger' keeps its balance! [Laughs.

Here's what you can order

In the meantime, here it comes! The Furumachi Special Burger Jumbo is what you ordered! It's huge..!

Can you tell...? My friend who accompanied me chose the 'small size' one. It's not about perspective, it's really about the size.

My hands are not small, but they are big enough to stick out. I was aware that a hamburger is something you have to grab and eat, but I can't grab it at first! Eating it while preventing it from disintegrating requires a certain amount of skill. As expected, I couldn't eat it smartly (beginners!). I was not able to eat it smartly (beginner!). My friend who had finished eating it told me, "You haven't progressed at all!" I ate it while being told "You haven't progressed at all!" by my friend who had finished eating it.

How does it taste?

The taste was super and delicious in the following respects!

• Vegetables fresh
• Patty and buns cooked just right.
• Handmade & served immediately on the spot.
• Great volume of bacon (a whole long one).
• Homemade sauce not too thick, not too sweet, just right.
• No unnecessary seasonings.

Fresh anyway! The burger gave the impression of being fresh. Vegetables, meat, eggs... you could say that the flavour of the ingredients was sealed directly into the burger, and although the portion was huge, it wasn't too heavy. I was worried that it might be too rich or oily, but it was totally fine. Recommended for women! As the POP says, even women can enjoy this burger if they try hard enough.

Shop interior view

Inside the shop with a special attention to detail. It exudes an American feel. You can enjoy the feeling of dropping in at an authentic American burger shop without having to leave Niigata.

summary

The quantity of the food is what caught my eye, but I was able to fully enjoy the warmth of the handmade and the attention to detail in the ingredients. The "small" size is reasonably priced and inexpensive, so it's good for when you just want something light to eat. There is also a 'baked apple burger' on the menu, so there is a real variety.

For me personally, I would like to try CRAZY JUMBO one day. Fast the day before. LOL.

Can also be taken home!
