Burger King Japan has launched the "KYOTO Whopper," which was also co-developed with Kyoto’s rice vendor, Hachidaime Gihey Co., Ltd.
The “KYOTO Whopper” features a flame-grilled beef patty topped with a newly innovated “special rice patty,” made from white rice and Kin no Ibuki (brown rice), along with fresh lettuce, tomato, and onion.
It is finished with a “special Japanese-style ginger sauce” consisting of “dashi soy sauce,” which holds the umami of four types of dashi (bonito, mackerel shavings, shiitake mushrooms, and kelp) and infused with four traditional Japanese spices (roasted chili pepper, Japanese pepper, ginger, and dried citrus peel.)
