It's 10:20pm, which means I have to go to bed. So much for working out: I'm going to bed with a full tummy.

Apparently... As well as the gelatin, which is supposed to simulate veal in a more typical beef-pork-veal meatloaf mix...

yeah it's a solidly good cooking show and it's cool how they illustrate techniques and test out cooking utensils and the like.

Light snack to be had in Akihabara....

When it comes to food in Japan, bigger just keeps getting better. Japan has a new king of hamburgers and it isnft the Mega Mac from McDonalds. Burger Cafe Asyl in Akihabara can now make the claim as the biggest burger joint from the east with their Akibaburger that stands at nearly 20 centimeters tall. This big boy comes with three bread rolls, one hamburger patty, two fried pork cutlets, cheese, onion, lettuce, pineapple and Burger Cafe Asylfs special sauce. Which, I would presume to be some mayonaisse based concoction.

The only problem is, how are you going to dig into this sucker? Unless you are Hulk Hogan and can pick this thing up with your hands, do you go at it with a fork or chopsticks?

you live in the states, you would probably eat this burger with a knife and fork. If you have lived in Japan for longer than five years, itfs a whole new challenge.

Ifd go with the chopsticks.

Does anyone know of a bigger burger?
