When is Mos Burger coming to Los Angeles or the United States! I've been asking this very question for the longest time. Why has this not happened yet?? Will it ever happen?
I first discovered Mos Burger when my old band was touring in Tokyo and I fell in love. Why is there not a burger like this in the States with meat sauce?
To be honest, I actually discovered that Mos Burger is in the LAX International Terminal, but I never happen to be hungry when I'm flying out of the country. Also, I'm not interested in eating before I get on a flight when I know that dinner will be served shortly after takeoff.
Anywhooooo
I've got a great little copycat Mos Burger recipe so that you can recreate the burger at home!
