MMMMMMc Donalds

Japan loves McDonald's...because its hella good here. The menu is completely different and everything, I mean EVERYTHING, tastes better. Nothing tastes like pasted together cardboard deep-fried in grease. We refused to eat McDonald's back home in the states but decided to give it a go here. We were pleasantly surprised and were happy to find that the menu was Japanese inspired and loosely based on the American standard.

Here is the outside of the 3 story McDonald's in Zushi outside of the train station.

Ronald McDonald trying to tempt the Japanese children

 The boy toys are racing cars and the girls toys are characters selling and preparing food...awesome.

Heres their line and menu. The staff has on different uniforms than in the states and these people were a heck of a lot friendlier than back at home. OH and they have to actually count out your change for you here instead of having it dolled out for them like in the US....AKA they can count!

 Out tasty meal. We got a little bit of everything to try out.

 The Diavolo Chicken Sandwich. It kinda tasted like a spicy and sweet orange chicken from back at home. It was really good because the quality was a lot higher than we expected.

 This was a tasty find. When I ordered it, I just pointed to the picture that look familiar and thought I was getting a normal burger but I got this little delight instead. Its a teriyaki burger that instead of using hamburger its patty is a sausage, just like you would get in your morning meal.

 It had an amazing glaze on it, a lot of mayo (which I wiped off) and it tasted a lot better than it looked.

 Shaka Shaka Chicken was something new. You had your choice of seasonings which you poured in the pouch and shaka, shaka your chicken to coat it.

 The easy to follow instructions...

 The delicious outcome

This was great...the Bacon Potato Pie.

 The crust was just like the Apple pie you get in the US. The filling was heavenly.

 The regular size drink they offer here is the size smaller than the US small cup.

 These are the sandwich specials that they on different days. Today's sandwich was the Diavolo. I really want to try the others. They totally need these back at home.

My husband found this and I thought it was funny/weird/out there. Apparently Japan is getting fatter and McDonald's, just like at home, is the cause.
