MOS Karamiso Chicken Burger

Wow.  That’s the tenderest whole chicken sandwich I’ve ever had.  One of the current seasonal selections at MOS Burger is the Karamiso (spicy miso) Chicken Burger.  This one takes a little bit to arrive, since they grill up the chicken when you order the sandwich.  Topped with a special sauce made from a blend of three kinds of miso – spicy Korean kochujang, sweet Chinese tianmianjiang, and sweet Kyoto-style miso – blended with aibiki (ground beef and pork), carrot, onion, and other vegetables, the juicy chicken thigh sits atop cabbage in a soft bun.  The sweet and spicy sauce and the crisp, sweet cabbage balance the salty savoriness of the marinated, teriyaki-style chicken.

According to the MOS site, the chicken is imported from the PRC which comes with worries, but the cabbage is domestic, and the bun is made from wheat imported from The USA, Canada, and/or Australia.  I’m a little surprised about the Chinese chicken, considering they usually use domestic beef and pork.  The burger alone is 360-yen, but with a salad and drink, the set price is 710-yen.
