So I finally decided to pop my FUKU cherry and holy shit I'm glad I did. I had a craving for burgers and noticed that FUKU was only a few miles from my house so I decided to drive over.
I was ready for a crowd of wild kids and crazy music but I was only half right. There were a bunch of younger kids and loud music but nothing too out of line. Ordering was quick and easy and I was told to try the Buta Burger. It was like a flavor explosion in my mouth with the combination of sauces and textures. Not to mention the bacon was so thick and succulent that I could have just eaten a side order of that.
For a side I ended up choosing the Jazz fries which were smothered in a tasty gravy and a sauce that tasted like wasabi without the insane heat. It was a perfect complement to the burger except for the fact that I might now have heart disease. Fuck it, well worth it!
The only downside to ordering a full sized burger as opposed to sliders is the fact that you can't try several things unless you're HUGE. I guess I'll have to go back another night to try the Tamago burger and garlic fries to complete my FUKU experience. Eat up, and enjoy the semi-hipster atmosphere!
