Tokyo’s dedication to food is legendary, reflected in its countless Michelin-starred restaurants – but scoring a table can be tough, and the price tags are often eye-wateringly high. So you'll be glad to know that you can soon enjoy a taste of Tokyo's two-Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant Den at… Shack Shack.
The world-famous New York burger joint is teaming up with Den's chef Zaiyu Hasegawa for a commemorative menu to celebrate Shake Shack’s tenth year in Japan. Den is one of Tokyo’s most innovative kaiseki restaurants and has held Michelin stars for nearly 15 years, earning its first in 2011 and maintaining a two-star ranking since 2012. Chef Hasegawa is no stranger to Shake Shack, having designed a creative burger for the brand as part of a one-day chef collaboration back in 2016.
This time around, Chef Hasegawa has created a full set meal, including a burger, fries, dessert and drink. The anniversary set will be available for just two days, Saturday November 15 and Sunday November 16, at Shake Shack Tokyo’s Gaien Icho Namiki location – Japan’s first Shake Shack.
A closer look at the menu reveals the Den Shack burger, a unique fusion of American and Japanese flavours with a juicy 100 percent hormone-free Angus beef patty, unagi (freshwater eel), cheddar cheese, Narazuke pickles, and a special homemade sansho pepper Shack sauce.
Shake Shack’s signature crinkle-cut fries get an upgrade topped with tender, spicy simmered beef cheek, the brand’s original cheese sauce, and a touch of blue cheese.
The popular 50/50 drink has also been reimagined with Tsuyuhikari, a Japanese tea served at Den, which pairs perfectly with the tangy lemonade.
Lastly, the set meal includes a fermented bread chocolate concrete made with Shake Shack’s rich vanilla frozen custard, chunks of fermented chocolate bread, and a fragrant sprinkle of hojicha and cloves.
Only 500 servings of Den’s special Shake Shack set will be available, priced at ¥5,500. Guests who order the set will receive an exclusive collaboration sticker, and those dining with their dogs can also get an original biscuit inspired by Chef Hasegawa’s adorable pet pooch.
