"Samurai" Kobe Beef Steak Burgers (侍 "SAMURAI" 神戸牛ステーキ), a unique fusion of gourmet Kobe beef with Japanese onigiri, has become a smash among international travellers at Kansai International Airport in Osaka. Despite their premium price of 5,500 yen (approximately $35), these burgers have been incredibly popular since their debut in December 2023.

The high demand for these luxurious burgers has led to frequent sell-outs. Only 80 burgers a day are available at the Onigiri Burger shop near the international departure gates. Needless to say, this limited supply contributes to the appeal of these exclusive treats for departing travellers.
