The Hamburg steak is believed to have been brought to Japan via Yokohama during the Meiji period, growing in popularity during the 1960s as a more cost-effective way to serve meat; it typically sees filler ingredients of panko, onion, and egg. Known as ハンバーグ(hanbāgu), this yōshoku dish is now an iconic dish in Japan. What’s unique about the Hamburg steaks here is that the patties are shaped by hand using a house-concocted ratio of beef, pork, and Miyazaki Wagyu beef, resulting in a rich and juicy flavour.
