Japanese restaurant Rappu at Duxton might be known for its viral handrolls, but this May, it’s introducing Rappu-giri, a limited-time pop-up selling sushi seaweed burgers. The pop-up will run from May 16 to July 5 at café-bar Stay Gold Flamingo on 69 Amoy Street.
Forget regular buns – here, your ‘burger’ comes wrapped in crispy Japanese rice and premium seaweed, then stuffed with fillings like spam and egg ($8) and salmon mentaiko ($14). More luxurious toppings include Peking duck, unagi ($20), and even wagyu beef. One thing Rappu does well with its handrolls is to serve its seaweed wrappers warm, retaining all their crispiness, so we’re expecting the same at Rappu-giri.
To pair with the rice burgers, Stay Gold Flamingo will also be slinging Japanese café-style drinks, with both boozy and booze-free options to complete the experience.
Here’s the real kicker though: on opening day (May 16), free Rappu-giri will be given out from 11.30am onwards till they’re all snapped up. But if you don’t manage to get your hands on the complimentary burgers, fret not, you still have eight more weeks to try them till the pop-up concludes in July.
Rappu-giri is available daily from 11.30am to 2.30pm at Stay Gold Flamingo for walk-ins only.
