Just stick your hand in between two buns. And then shake the hand of the evil father who wants to keep you from your bitch.

Have you heard the chef talk about it? He's PISSED at the thought of ketchup hitting that thing.

We have a special sauce! A special sauce dammit!

Ate kobe beef whenever I could in my trips to Japan. That massaging process makes a world of difference.

The Argentinians scoff at the Kobe beef.

Fair enough. But the Argentinians are cooler looking cowboys.

The only way that burger would be worth it is if it came with a side order of blowjob.

A dusty turban does not make one cool. Could Kobe beef be tastier? I submit that it could not!

But $41 for a burger? Dayam!

I've once spent 50$ on eggs in New York. Eggs are lower than hamburgers, so this suprises me not. And I don't think I had any ketchup for my eggs either.

I've always wanted to try Kobe beef, but I couldn't afford a 300 dollar steak when I lived there. Of course, I don't know if I'd want to buy a 41 dollar hamburger, either. I think the steak would be a better representation of true Kobe beef.

mmm...drunken massaged cows.

I'd try that.

Kobe beef, imported from Japan, comes from cattle raised on beer and massaged daily to make the meat soft and succulent.

The burger, which has a piece of herb butter in the middle of each patty, comes on a special roll with exotic mushrooms and microgreens -- shredded baby lettuce.

Put away the Heinz. The burger comes with a homemade ketchup, mustard or horseradish sauce.

"And it's served," Sherry added, "with our classic garlic shoestring fries."

I had it at a few yakiniku places. It's worth the hype.

Well, that's an artery-blocker if I've ever seen one!

Oh man, I could go for yakiniku right now.

Of course, if I was at the Kobe beef yakiniku places, I'd just go for the beef. Everything else is merely a waste of money when you've got that cooking on the grill.

How much was it?
