It was really good too! A lot better than McDonald's, for sure.

There's one in my 'hood and that's all I care about. :) VinylFreak: No Taco Bells, but Taco Time has opened a few shops. There’s one in my ‘hood and that’s all I care about. :)

At least that is the first and only KK in Japan. Burger King was here and gone and was in Shinjuku before, no less. I went to the one in the Shinjuku Center Building before it shut down a few times and people were clearly sufficiently indifferent to it that they shut it down (same for the one in Nakano). I do believe this will settle down faster than KK because, in the end, there isn't so much spectacularly different about Burger King's burgers compared to other fast food.

The shop was near full of people eating Whoppers. Mmm. I passed by it last weekend and they were open but only for “family and friends”. The shop was near full of people eating Whoppers. Mmm.

Don't they notice us, the fat american tourists and wonder how we got like that? But I can understand why its popular since so many are too busy working to be bother with cooking.

Hopefully they get big like McD's so that theres some real competition. Wow, the whole time being in Japan i never realized they didn’t have any burger kings.
