Great Signs in Japan: F*ckin' Yummy Hamburger!

Japan no longer needs to hold her collective head down in shame for the crappy hamburgers she serves. Japan now has "F*ckin' Yummy Burgers"... So take that America!


The sign says, "Nine Gate Burger F*ckin' Yummy Hamburger"... Hmmm? Well you know, they couldn't say it if it weren't true. And, looky here! They even spell it correctly! OK. I'll have to try it sometime.

¥850 yen for a burger. Pretty pricey! That's about $9.00 folks!

Nine Gate Burger does delivery/catering for all sorts of events, even Fuji Rock

Nine Gate Burger is advertised as "Sasebo style" hamburger. Sasebo is in Kyushu, souther Japan and there's a huge US military base there so maybe the locals learned a thing or two about making burgers from the Navy and Marines. See their webpage here.


Looks like proper "made by mom & pop hamburgers!"

    Hahaha, it's odd that you would write a post along these lines! I have a blog post ready for tomorrow about another instance of Japanese using "Fuckin'" in their advertisements. It's astonishing!

    Actually, at the current exchange rate, 850 yen is $11.00. For that price, it had better ruin all other burgers for me for the rest of my life.

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
