The Sasebo Burger must contain fresh raw vegetables and original sauce. There are more than 25 restaurants serving Sasebo burgers in the city, each offering their own original interpretation.

  • "The fresh raw vegetables and original sauce make it look healthy and user-friendly. It's good value for the money" (man in his 70s)

  • "I can't forget the taste of the Sasebo burger I had once" (woman in her 30s).

Sasebo is said to be the birthplace of the hamburger in Japan, first sold near U.S. Fleet Activities Sasebo around the 1950s after the recipe was taught by an American naval officer. Later, many hamburger stores were established and each store added their own unique twist to it. The Sasebo Burger is now loved as the soul food of Sasebo citizens.
