Kiddie Gourmet: BLACOWS serves delicious Kids Plate

By on February 16, 2015

My family loves their burger patties thick – the gourmet kind. One thing we love most about Tokyo is having a plethora of restaurant choices.

Very seldom do we eat at a random place with a Japanese-only menu.

So we were thrilled to find the menu at Blacows in English.  Blacows is a gourmet burger joint in Daikanyama which, by some stroke of luck, happens to be just a block away from where we live.

We went there on a less crowded weekday without prior research and the food was a pleasant surprise.

Blacows serves seventeen appetizing burger sandwiches bursting with 100% kuroge (Japanese black cattle breed) wagyu beef.

We ordered a couple burgers each to satisfy our weekend cravings.

The burgers are reasonably priced by Tokyo standards. The Hamburger costs ¥1,000, Cheese Burger and Avocado burger are ¥1,200).  TheMozarella Burger, Teriyaki, Bacon Egg, Cheese Egg are all ¥1,300 each. The Bacon Lettuce Tomato costs ¥1,350. The price of the fancier Avocado Cheese, Bacon Cheese, Hot Chili and Meat Sauce Cheese burger is ¥1,400 each, 100 yen higher for Bacon Cheese Egg, 200 yen more for Bacon Cheese Avocado (¥1,600).

The premiums have thicker meat patties and are naturally more expensive than the regular sandwiches. W Patty (¥1,700), Big Blacows ¥2,600, and Blacows Kids Plate (¥1,000).

Diners here are free to customize their vegetable toppings for an additional ¥350 with drinks included but this is offered only between  11:30 am until 3pm.

The Kids Plate which our two sons love comes complete with tasty fries, egg, veggies, and desserts on the side.
