We went to Japan and while we were there we tried out the different McDonalds menu items to compare them to the US. The McDonalds in Japan is distinctly different, in a good way. In this recipe video we recreate the Filet o’ Shrimp, the Shaka Shaka, and the Ginger Pork Burger. Let us know what other menu items you want us to recreate in a Part 2!
Filet o’ shrimp also known as the EBI(Shrimp) Filet-O is a shrimp stuffed, panko battered and fried, patty served on a sesame bun with lettuce, minced onion, and mac sauce. This by far is the most different sandwich we tried in Japan and making it at home took it to the next level.

The Shaka Shaka is our top pick from McDonalds Japan because eating a piece of chicken like this was so fun. For this snack you take a succulent piece of fried chicken, place it in a bag, and shake on your favorite seasonings. Snack wraps need to take notes on the Shaka Shaka.

The Ginger Pork Burger is a solid classic at McDonalds in Japan. It sure is tasty as is but add an egg to it and it takes it to the next level.
