My son is a high school student living alone in a dorm in Sapporo. On his days off, he doesn't get lunch, so we decided to have lunch together. He wanted to eat a hearty hamburger, so we chose this restaurant. My son ordered a large hamburger (about 450 grams) and a large serving of rice (which was free). I was in the mood for pork cutlet curry (not in large serving). We ordered using a touch panel ticket machine, and then I noticed there was no hand sanitizer available, so I washed my hands in the restroom. My son's hamburger arrived. I had tried it before in Asahikawa, so I didn't taste it this time. However, the rice in the large serving looked like a normal portion in the bowl. My curry arrived. It wasn't a large serving, but it was quite a generous portion. The pork cutlet was not too hot, but it was a large piece with a satisfying amount. The curry sauce was well cooked with sautéed onions, and despite being a roux curry, it was not too oily and had a light taste. I found it delicious. I didn't finish it all because it was a bit too much for me. My son seemed to find the meat satisfying but felt the rice portion was small despite being a large serving. Thank you for the meal.

Jetstar was delayed and arrived at New Chitose at 7:20 pm. It seems that the delay rate is the worst among LCCs??? I had told the real estate agent that I would arrive by 8:00 pm, so I was in a hurry at Sapporo Son Mansion waiting for me... (^◇^;) I was planning to leisurely enter Sapporo by bus, but I ended up dashing with my suitcase and taking the JR Rapid to move. As a result, I ended up making them wait for 30 minutes, I'm sorry. Please forgive me with some eel pie~♪ The real estate agent also helped me receive the bedding tonight, so that was a relief♪ It was a big mistake that I couldn't get a night flight for some reason... and it turned into a kind of midnight escape-like move. LOL Somehow managed to prepare my son's house for sleeping and realized it was already 10 pm... Are there any restaurants open at this time??? I decided to walk towards Kita 18-jo Station, thinking there might be something there. And I found it~ "Fireburg♪" Is it a chain store?! I entered just in time, 10 minutes before the last order, and purchased a meal ticket at the machine. I ordered a 150g hamburger for my daughter and me, a steak & burger for my son, 3 pieces of Sapporo Zangi, a mini curry, and juice. When I handed over the meal ticket, they asked about the amount of rice. It seems that extra rice is free. My daughter and I had regular size, and my son had extra rice, then we waited for a while. They also offered free Rooibos tea, which was nice(*≧∀≦*) I appreciate this kind of service♪ Each dish was served on a plate. First, the white rice~ It was cooked with seven kinds of grains and had a firm texture, very delicious! The kids seemed satisfied too. The hamburger had a common taste, but the meat was tender and tasty. The miso soup seemed to be mainly white miso in Hokkaido. It was also properly made with ingredients. Since my kids don't eat much curry, we never go to curry or soup curry restaurants in Sapporo. So, we couldn't go together to a soup curry restaurant, and we had to settle for the mini curry here. It was a small portion like a tasting portion, but it was fruity and super delicious◎ My son's cut steak was a bit tough. The Zangi had a good garlic flavor and was juicy and hot, freshly fried. They were quite large, and one piece was enough to make us full. Our first meal in Sapporo was a hamburger (⌒▽⌒) My daughter, who loves hamburgers, really liked it and said, "Let's come back again before we leave!" Thank you for the meal.

Lunch discovery in the area. While wandering around before heading back to the subway station, my feet stop in front of this place. Is this the same as the Fire Burgers elsewhere? The other locations I've seen are just for viewing outside, but the storefront here is completely different. Maybe because it's near the station? It doesn't give off the typical Fire Burgers vibe. My first time at Fire Burgers. Perhaps because of the location, there seem to be many students around. Inside the store, there's a ticket machine right away. I always struggle with these...feels like being rushed from behind. I ordered the Wasabi Butter Hamburger for 670 yen. A small portion of rice on a hot plate with potatoes, broccoli, hamburger, rice, and miso soup. The hamburger is similar to what others have mentioned, like the typical fast-food chain. It was described as homemade, and while it probably is, the Wasabi Butter had a slightly mature taste that was delicious! Overall, a decent lunch option. Thank you for the meal!

I felt like eating hamburger after a long time, so I came here and found that the store had been renovated, and the atmosphere had become brighter. The menu has also been updated with new items. I love green onions, so I ordered the "Mountain of Green Onion Salt Hamburger" for 690 yen. The standard size for the hamburger seems to be 150 grams. Rice can be upsized for free, but I opted for the regular size. The restaurant is filled with the smell of hamburgers. According to reviews, the service is quick, but I had to wait for about 15 minutes as there were 4 customers ahead of me during lunchtime. The hot plate arrived with a hamburger topped with green onions, fried potatoes, broccoli, rice, and miso soup. The taste was okay for the hamburger. The fried potatoes and broccoli seemed to be frozen products for commercial use. Well, for this price, I guess this is what you can expect.

Hamburg steak chain restaurant with locations in Sapporo, Iwaki, and Yokohama. I visited their branch near the Subway Namboku Line Kita 18-jo Station for lunch, which is popular among students. I purchased a ticket at the entrance vending machine for a set meal with 2 pieces of Sapporo Zangi and a Hamburg steak topped with a fried egg, with a large portion of rice and miso soup. The Hamburg steak, weighing 150g, was just the right size, tender, juicy, and handmade as advertised. The Zangi, a large fried chicken piece, was crispy and satisfying. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

Today, I was feeling lazy to walk, so I decided to stop by this place on the way to the station that I had been meaning to visit. It's called Fireburg. There are 8 counter seats, 2 two-person tables, and 2 four-person tables. Around 7:00 PM, there was no one there when I arrived, but one customer came in later. I had heard rumors about a challenge menu with multiple layers of hamburgers, but I couldn't find any signs or posters about it. The atmosphere was more like a bright cafe. I wasn't really in the mood to eat, but I checked the ticket machine, and there was no menu that seemed like the challenge one. Maybe it's a limited-time offer or they stopped it? I ordered the Cheddar Cheese Burger set for 670 yen and added a 250g upgrade ticket for 240 yen, making it a total of 910 yen. It's not that cheap with the upgrade. The food arrived in about 8 minutes, quite fast. The hamburger was a thin flat type without much thickness, and the cheese looked quite delicious. The side dishes were potatoes and broccoli. I opted for a large serving of rice, which was free, but it wasn't that much in a rice bowl. The miso soup had only green onions and a little seaweed. The hamburger was a bit roughly ground. It didn't have much juice probably because it was thin. The cheese had a rich taste. A slightly sweet taste lingered in the aftertaste, but I couldn't quite remember what it reminded me of. The potatoes seemed like cheap frozen ones you can buy at the store. The broccoli also seemed like frozen food. I poured the soy sauce-based sauce that was on the table over the food, but the taste started to get a bit boring. The rice was freshly cooked and tasty, but the flavor was a bit monotonous. I wished there was some pickles or something. Towards the end of the meal, I finally remembered the taste - it reminded me of a McDonald's cheeseburger. Thinking about it, even though they raised the price a bit, McDonald's is truly great with their cheeseburgers.

★KG★ I visited this restaurant for lunch on a regular day. I often see these store clusters in Sapporo. Today was my first time coming here. The inside of the restaurant is filled with the smell of hamburgers, which honestly makes you wonder about the quality of the meat, that smell, haha. We decided to try the hamburger with demiglace sauce and the hamburger with "Sapporo Zangi". The prices are lower compared to other chain restaurants, which is nice. I wonder if the Sapporo Zangi is a collaboration with another store? I tried searching during the wait, but couldn't find any information. As for the taste, well, it was as expected from the smell that filled the restaurant. However, the meat itself was tender and cooked well, and when you pour the demiglace sauce, it becomes quite delicious! For those who are working, make sure to use deodorant spray after leaving the restaurant!!

I was drawn by the convenience and visited for the second time. This time, I ordered the "Rich Demi-Glace Sauce Hamburger" and opted for a large serving of rice (free of charge). The demi-glace sauce was perfectly seasoned and paired excellently with the rice. I finished the large serving of rice in no time. One of the advantages I noticed was the short waiting time from ordering to serving.

The signboard and logo have been renovated and now look stylish, making it more inviting than before. The location is also convenient, right in front of the Kita-Juhachi subway station. I was surprised by the variety of the menu, which includes classic hamburgers, loco moco bowls, and curry. This time, I ordered the Cheddar Cheese Hamburg Set. The set comes with rice and miso soup, and you can upgrade to a large portion of rice for free. The hamburger is served on a hot plate, so it stays deliciously hot until the end. Overall, the price is reasonable for what you get. I felt that this is a perfect place to go when you feel like having a casual hamburger meal.

Tastier than Donkey ==========

Wasabi Hamburg Steak

The hamburger was served with a refreshing sauce. The rice was dry.

Steak & Hamburger Set for 1140 yen.

Good evening. I went to Fireburg right after leaving Kita 18-jo Station. It's a popular spot for Hokkaido University students and working professionals after work. Sometimes couples also come here. The girlfriend of one such couple mentioned, "I feel like I could come here alone." The atmosphere is welcoming for anyone. I ordered the Sapporo Zangi & Hamburger Set (250g). The rice is free and they even offer a large serving for free, which is much appreciated. The hamburger, made with freshly ground meat in the morning, is really delicious. It goes well with their homemade sauce and doesn't feel heavy on the stomach. It's quite different from Bikkuri Donkey, with a light and easy-to-eat hamburger. The Sapporo Zangi comes out piping hot. It's so hot that it sometimes burns your mouth (laughs). After eating the Zangi, my mouth usually feels a bit tingly... When dipped in the Oyster Sauce, the rice becomes irresistible! Depending on how busy they are, they might offer warm Pu'er tea towards the end of your meal. Having warm tea after oily food makes you feel happy from the inside out as you head home. Thank you for the meal (*´꒳`*)

Challenge Burger (2,160 yen) with Wasabi Butter (119 yen) is a losing battle that I feel like taking on regularly... If you can finish it within 15 minutes, it's free! But once again, I managed to finish it but went over the time limit, so I'm out (;^ω^) I'm currently on a losing streak of 5. The hamburger has a rough ground texture and is delicious even without using table sauce, just with the marinade. The Wasabi Butter topping is recommended for cutting through the heaviness of the oil. The total weight of the hamburger, rice, potatoes, and broccoli combined is about 2kg. The challenge for finishing it all is the heat and the potatoes soaked in hamburger juice. To be honest, as someone with a sensitive palate, I don't feel confident in being able to succeed in this challenge, but I'm sure I'll try again soon, haha.

Lunchtime Curry Rice Large Serving [390 yen] Hamburger Set [520 yen] (Large serving of rice + 1 free refill) This is a well-known chain store, but I wonder if the North 18th Street branch is geared towards students? The lunch service is cheaper than other stores♪ The curry has a mild flavor with a contrasting spiciness that is delicious! The large serving is about 300g, I think~ Of course, it wasn't enough so I added the hamburger set. The hamburger with a meaty taste is consistently tasty♪ It's 150g, but even just the seasoning alone is delicious and goes well with the rice! I finished the first bowl of rice in a large serving, and the second bowl in a regular serving. As a side note, the elderly female staff at the counter had a comforting kindness that made me want to go back again (^-^)

I happened to enter this restaurant while taking a walk because I was feeling hungry. Although it is a chain store that I knew of, I had never been there before, so I decided to give it a try. The restaurant was compact, with a counter seating for 8 people and 3 tables for 4 people each. The menu was surprisingly extensive. I ordered the Hamburg and Zangi set for 740 yen, and the "Yokubari" set for 600 yen (Hamburg and curry rice). Rice refills were free, and you could also get one free refill. The Hamburg that was served looked like it had been cooked at home and had a slightly burnt appearance. I poured the Hamburg sauce provided on the table over it and tried it. Hmm? It tasted familiar, like the Hamburg at Bikkuri Donkey. Surprisingly, it was delicious. I think it's good value for the price. It might be appreciated by those who can eat a lot of rice. The Hamburg itself was a bit mushy, maybe because it was mixed with something, but was it worth the price? The side dishes were decent. The curry in the Yokubari set was cooked with a sauce where you couldn't identify the ingredients, but it was also delicious. However, it was a bit lukewarm. The miso soup was also lukewarm. The Zangi was meant to be eaten with a special sauce, but I'm not sure if it made a difference. It was delicious either way. Overall, there was a cheap feel to the place, but there was a satisfactory feeling considering the price. I don't necessarily feel the need to visit this restaurant again, but I did feel a certain level of satisfaction.

I was craving shrimp fry after being influenced by a TV show called "Danshi Gohan", but when I arrived at the restaurant, I couldn't find it on the menu outside. So, I settled for just ordering a hamburger. Surprisingly, when I looked at the menu inside, they did offer a hamburger and shrimp fry set. Despite expecting a student-friendly hamburger chain, the hamburger I got was actually soft and juicy. As for the shrimp fry, it tasted like a pre-made one, so I didn't enjoy it. The fact that they served the dishes without any sauce was a bit strange, but I ended up adding some sauce from the condiments on the table. The rice was a bit dry, and the miso soup reminded me of Yoshinoya. In the end, I think the hamburger curry that the person next to me ordered might have been the better choice. With curry, I could have skipped the miso soup, and the hamburger was delicious.

This chain restaurant, which has multiple locations in Hokkaido and even in the Kanto region, is known for its hamburgers and offers a challenging menu item. The challenge burger consists of four large hamburgers, a generous serving of rice, and sides like potatoes, totaling 2kg in weight. If you finish it within 15 minutes, it's free, but if you exceed the time limit, you have to pay 2000 yen. The price seems fair considering the quantity. One day at lunch, feeling up for the challenge, I visited the restaurant in North 18th Street. I was seated near the entrance and ordered the challenge burger. After a few instructions, my order was accepted. The burger arrived after a 15-minute wait, and it was indeed impressive with its four hamburgers and a large serving of rice. Everything was hot, making it a battle against the heat as well. I divided the hamburgers to cool them down and ate at a steady pace. I saved the last hamburger for the end, along with the rice, and managed to finish it all. I called the staff over to confirm. It took me 8 minutes and 40 seconds, with some time to spare, but my stomach was definitely full. The limit now is 2kg, although I once finished a 3kg curry challenge in the past. Apart from hamburgers, they also offer dishes like zangi set meals. It's great to be able to enjoy a delicious and hearty meal at such affordable prices. Thank you for the meal. Please note that the evaluation was done under the assumption of paying the 2000 yen fee.
