So you came all the way to Hakodate and I bet the last thing on your mind would be having a hamburger. Yes, you did not read it wrong, I'm talking about hambugers. Everyone thinks Hakodate is all about Shio ramen and seafood but actually Hakodate is quite well known for their Western style cuisine. Today I will be introducing you to the Hakodate chain burger joint called "Lucky Pierrot". Though it is a chain, it can only be found in Hakodate and no where else in Japan, not even other regions of Hokkaido. This is what makes this burger chain "local". The burger to talk about here is the infamous "Chinese Chicken burger". I know the name might sound a little bit racist and tick some people off but I tell you it was tasty. The chicken is fried and marinated in this sweet red sauce (kind of like the sweet and sour pork in Chinese cuisine) and you get 3 inside your burger. When you get your burger is almost always hot and the chicken inside is always juicy. If you get the set it comes with a cut of french fries put in a cup with a kind of white sauce covering them. The sauce is actually made with cream and cheese and if you look further down there is chilli down there too! Every time i get a chance to drop by Hakodate I have to have this burger at least once. Believe me, after one of these bad boys you will keep craving for more.
