Overseas hamburger chains such as Shake Shack and Carl's Jr., which have a "premium feeling", have announced their expansion into Japan one after another. Nowadays, the gourmet burger world is suddenly booming.

But don't forget. Even in Japan, there is a "superb gourmet burger" that is competitive with foreigners ...!


That's why I would like to introduce you to the dining bar STOVES, which is a 5-minute walk from the west exit of Yokohama Station. Here, there are so many gourmet burgers that "Eat once and you'll be addicted" to the extent that some people say "Yokohama's best hamburger"!


● A hamburger that shines in the menu

The American-style burgers, both exterior and interior, are lined with hamburgers familiar to Japanese people, such as the basic "hamburgers" and "cheeseburgers," "fish burgers," and "teriyaki chicken burgers." I will.


Among them, the menu that shines outstandingly. That is the author's favorite " Blue Cheeseburger " (1,200 yen). In the place where "blue cheese" is put out on the whole surface without cheating by putting fashionable words in the menu name, "Eat only the people you like!" And "But I will not regret it ..." A dish that gives you confidence.

The contents of the burger are thickly cut tomatoes, lettuce, sliced onions, and 100% beef patties topped with blue cheese sauce. These are brilliantly sanded in homemade buns made from whole grains. This blue cheese-covered beef patty is so delicious that it makes me cry ...!


The unique scent of blue mold that wraps around your nose and mouth the moment you bite. The chemistry of the taste that the gravy that overflows as you chew the patty is entwined with the umami of the addictive blue cheese! For those who like blue cheese, of course, just a cheeseburger isn't enough, and I want to eat a guy who has more punch and is behind! It is definitely recommended for people who like gourmet burgers.


The buns, which are baked with a "crispy" texture, are also the driving force behind the deliciousness of the blue cheeseburger. It seems that brown sugar is combined with the dough, and after the fluffy texture, the gentle sweetness is fluffy. A presence that is second to none without killing the goodness of blue cheese. I feel the pride of the shop that I will not cut corners in the buns.


By the way, the garnish is shredded potatoes that are eaten with gravy sauce. The crunchy texture and savory aroma are addictive.


● Delicious other than hamburgers

Of course I like hamburgers, but there are days when I feel like eating rice rather than bread (buns). In such a case, don't worry, there is also a hearty menu with rice, side dishes, and salad on one plate. By the way, my recommendation is the "roast pork plate" (850 yen) with roast pork on top of rice.


The pork with a sweet and spicy sauce is fragrant and juicy. When you chew on the soft and fluffy meat, the sweetness of the fat will burst out. A grilled onion that has a crispy and pleasant texture and a melting sweetness. And the fluffy rice that sucked in all these "delicious juices". If you squeeze everything generously, your mouth will be filled with happiness ...!



I had to go back to the office on this day, so I gave up crying, but I would like to drink beer together! STOVES also offers a wide variety of drink menus, including alcohol.

If you toast with delicious food and beer from daytime, you may feel like you are at an overseas resort because of the locality of Yokohama.
