McDonald's Japan announces its latest partnership to excite fans alike and this time, it is tapping the beloved Kiki's Delivery Service to create a range of burgers. There are three burgers to launch and all of the flavors are inspired by European cuisine.
The limited-edition menu launched on June 26th and will be available until the end of July 2024. The three sandwiches are served on square buns: the German Potato and Beef kicks off the selection which has a classic beef patty with a savory German potato filling paired with a mustard sauce. Those who prefer something spicier can opt for the Peperon Juicy Hot Chicken burger with a red pepper-infused chicken patty with garlic mayo. The last is a Bouillabaisse-style shrimp burger with a rich sauce and a dollop of aioli.
