The ‘Den Shack’ – available for only ONE day on November 3 features 100 percent Angus beef patty, crispy bacon, marinated cucumbers and red miso – all sandwiched within a glorious potato bun.

The collaboration came about when Hasegawa visited the burger chain in New York and was very impressed with the ultimate Shack experience.

If you are heading to Japan, why don’t you… stop by a Shake Shack in Tokyo, purchase a Den Burger at ¥930 JPY (approximately $9 USD) and let us know what you think?
