R: Okay, I'm going to try the fondue.

R: Hey guys! I'm here with Melodee!

and today we decided to go to a Burger King.

M: Right smack in the center of Shibuya Center Gai.

R: Right in the middle of Shibuya!

R: They have a teriyaki burger, hot chicken sandwich...

Oh, and a Whopper! Like a regular Whopper?

M: They say Whopper here like "Wappaa."

R: Wappaa!!

R: Do they have hot dogs in America now?

M: I don't know, maybe.

R: This would be, I'm assuming like melon soda?

M: Yeah, melon cream soda.

R: They definitely don't do this in America. Melon soda.

R: So we're going to get Burger King cheese fondue.

M: All right! Let's do it!

R: High class us.

Cashier: Do you want a cheeseburger or hamburger?

R: Cheeseburger.

C: Any toppings?

R: Uhh... ketchup and mustard.

C: Mustard already comes on it.

R: Oh! Just that is fine.

C: That's fine? R: Yep!

R: In Japan you can't usually customize your food order very much.

Especially if it's a sandwich, you can't usually tell them you know,

like take off the tomato, or add onions or something like that.

So I was always curious about whether they did that at restaurants like McDonald's or Burger King.

But apparently they actually do here!

And they have a whole little list that you can choose from that shows you

all the toppings and sauces you can get on your burgers.

These places actually usually have more than one floor, which is really cool.

Ah! And it's almost empty up here!

So for all of this, it was like $14,

which is a little expensive for Burger King,

but I mean, this is Japan, too.

M: I have high hopes for the fondue, so let's hope it'll be good!

R: So it looks just like an American cheeseburger...

slightly underwhelming in appearance.

But I like Burger King, so hopefully this is really good.

Japanese people actually usually use the plastic to pick up burgers,

but I'm not used to that, so I'll just eat it my normal American way.

M: How is it?

R: The meat tastes different,

but I can still taste the smoky grill flavor

that comes from Burger King, which I really like.

M: What about the bread?

Because bread in Japan is so soft and fluffy.

Pretty much the same?

R: The bread is very similar.

R: I think it's just the meat. It must be the meat they make it with.

This tastes... less meaty than in America.

M: Maybe for Japanese people, since they like it a little less meaty?

[notation] American patty: 100% beef Japanese patty: 100% beef + egg & wheat fillers

R: So far here in Japan I have yet to come across a very delicious burger.

M: Oh, really? Oh, interesting!

Have you had like Moss Burger and stuff?

R: Yeah, I think this is a very similar flavor to the meat patties they use.

M: I see.

R: So I guess... it's a standard Japanese hamburger.

R: It's all right.

M: So I'm going to go ahead and eat my teriyaki burger.

This is my first time here. Here we go!

M: It's delicious! R: Oh, great!

M: The mayo and the teriyaki sauce are super sweet, actually.

R: Oh, that sounds good.

M: It's really good! I mean, we don't have this in the States, so...

Teriyaki in Japan is really big here.

It's good! I like it a lot!

R: Something I've always thought was a little strange here is their napkins here in Japan

are like less papery, less cloth-y, and more wax paper-like.

M: That's true.

R: It's kind of hard to wipe your hands with.

But they make up for it because they have those wet wipes you can get everywhere.

You get these at a lot of places,

and I carry them around in my purse if I don't use them

because I know I'll need them at some point, like this,

when I just get this little wax paper thing.

So good thing I have these with me!

Hopefully this'll be good!

Japan doesn't do a lot of cheese, so I'm a little curious what their cheese fondue is going to taste like.

Oh, it's really good!

M: Is it thick? What does it taste like?

R: Omg, I dropped it on my pants.

M: Oh no!!

R: I'm not even classy enough to eat at Burger King...

R: It's like a creamy cheese. It's a really, really creamy cheese.

M: So I guess it's a fairly thick texture, kind of.

Maybe because I left it for a little bit.

Here we go!

It's "noukou." Very thick and rich.

R: Yeah!

They had pictures of people eating it with burgers, so maybe I should try that.

Burger King cheese fondue burger...

what am I doing...

M: Pretty good?

R: Yeah, it's okay.

It doesn't NEED cheese fondue.

M: Doesn't necessarily need it.

R: Maybe it's not something you necessarily have to add to your cheeseburger, but sure!

So, that was our Burger King meal with fondue.

M: It was really good!

R: It was surprisingly good.

So I guess if you want, come to Japan sometime and try out their Burger King cheese fondue!

M: Yeah! Come here and check it out!

R: All right, thanks for watching!

Both: Bye!!
