Hamburger examples include the rice burger, where the bun is made of rice, and the luxury 1000-yen (US$10) "Takumi Burger" (meaning "artisan taste"), featuring avocados, freshly grated wasabi, and other rare seasonal ingredients. In terms of the actual patty, there are burgers made with Kobe beef, butchered from cows that are fed with beer and massaged daily. McDonald's Japan also recently launched a McPork burger, made with U.S. pork. McDonald's has been gradually losing market share in Japan to these local hamburger chains, due in part to the preference of Japanese diners for fresh ingredients and more refined, "upscale" hamburger offerings.
Hamburger Abendblatt Hamburger Abendblatt The Hamburger Abendblatt (English: "Hamburg Evening Newspaper") is a German daily newspaper in Hamburg. The paper focuses on news in Hamburg and area, and produces regional supplements with news from Norderstedt, Ahrensburg, Harburg, and Pinneberg. Politically the paper is mildly conservative, but usually pro-government, including during SPD administrations. Four previous Hamburg newspapers had the word "Abendblatt" ("Evening Newspaper") in their title, including one named the "Hamburger Abendblatt", founded on 2 May 1820. This incarnation of the "Hamburger Abendblatt", however, was first published after World War II beginning on 14 October 1948 with an initial edition of 60,000 copies.
