read from kotaku, McDonald's Japan Rice Burger:
The rice buns—called
gohan buns in Japan—are made from rice and glazed in soy sauce. They sound, frankly, delicious, and are available in three varieties: rice teriyaki, rice fried chicken, rice bacon lettuce. They’ll be sold for a limited time only, from February to May, and will only be available on the restaurant’s
Yoru Mac menu (Night Mac), which is served from 5 p.m. to midnight.
Like most international McDonald’s menus, the Japanese franchises have a lineup of sandwiches unique to their country. Those include the Grand Teriyaki Burger (a classic burger with Teriyaki sauce), the Shrimp Filet (a fried shrimp patty with lettuce, tomato and garlic sauce), and Pork and Ginger Burger (exactly what it sounds like). The
gohan burgers appear to be the first rice-based sandwiches in recent Japanese McDonald’s history (though it tested them in Taiwan in 2005), causing excitement verging on mayhem for certain social media users.
