Arrived at Kentucky Fried Chicken.

I ordered the 'Japanese Style Chicken Katsu Burger Authentic Yuzu Shichimi' for takeout.

When you open the wrapping paper, it looks like this.

The diameter of the buns is approximately 8cm.

A Japanese-style chicken cutlet with shredded cabbage and teriyaki sauce is sandwiched between whole-grain buns, and there is plenty of yuzu shichimi mayo made with yuzu juice and shichimi chili pepper. The claim of yuzu shichimi mayo is quite strong, so much so that you can smell the refreshing yuzu scent just by holding the burger.

When I tried it, I found that the refreshing aroma of yuzu and the flavor of sweet and salty teriyaki sauce matched perfectly, and it was a nice accent to the otherwise monotonous teriyaki-flavored chicken cutlet, whetting my appetite. Furthermore, you could really feel the spiciness of the shichimi chili pepper, making it a spicy Japanese-style burger with plenty of punch.

'Japanese-Style Chicken Katsu Burger Authentic Yuzu Shichimi' will be available for purchase in limited quantities at Kentucky Fried Chicken stores nationwide, excluding some stores, starting Wednesday, March 13, 2024. The price is 490 yen including tax for a single item, 900 yen for a set of potato (S) and drink (M), and 1200 yen for a set that includes potato (S) and drink (M) with original chicken added.
