Wendy's Japan

By the end of the year Wendy's will be no more as all 71 stores across Japan will close.
The report at AP writes how Wendy's severed the agreement with franchise holder Zensho but the news report below says that Zensho decided not to renew the agreement - interesting how the media can choose to take sides on telling a story.
Zensho saying "We've had enough of the burger business" and Wendy's saying "You guys done a lousy job in japan - we're looking for other partners" are two different stories.

There are not many Burger Kings in Japan but I would probably eat more burgers if there was. The Mc Dee beef burgers taste like the hide on a baboons bottom so I usually have their other burgers like prawn and chicken.

Out of the following, who do the best burgers in your mind?

It's still kicking in Malang. Only 1 outlet here though. I like Burger King best, but it haven't entered East Java market. Wendy's will have to do, definitely 2nd best!!!

I agree, Burger King, or Hungry Jacks, which is our equivalant to Burger King is awesome.
Wendy's is almost gone here in Indonesia...or is it already gone? :3

used to eat back then when they had a shop at the back of atmajaya university in jakarta, is it still around? haven't go there for what.. 5 years?

Do they still have KFC lol. Yeah I haven't seen Wendy's when I usually go back home to Java. =( But why do i need to eat fast food when their is other delicious cultural food on the streets! Sate, Bakso! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
commis ^^
yeah, always miss padang and gulai for me.. after all those time when i got back to Indonesia i always demand for something with a lot of coconut milk and herbs and spices :p .. don't forget ketoprak :p ...urgh.. and i can still list quite a lot of food that i want. Danny's food list in Singapore is nothing compared to what we can found in Indonesia

same here. They are rare here now. McD is so popular here as well as Jollibee, our own version. They taste the same, though

I've never actually had Wendy's, and I haven't had a burger from the other two in years. I can't remember what they even taste like. Want a burger in California? You eat at In-N-Out. That's just how it is now. (...and they're awesome)

Love In-N-Out... I totally agree with you. Had one for the first time when I was in LA for the summer and felt it was better than the three big chains.

Yes, IN-N-OUT is quite the burger place. I wonder if Danny has had one before. It's rather tasty considering that it isn't all that fancy like other burgers from the other chains.
Prologue: I have a time machine.

I still love how people get all hot and bothered over the fact that In-N-Out hasn't spread past the western states in the US.

Wendy's reopening in Singapore at Lau Pa Sat (where Danny had one of his dinner on AFA duty) ... plans are afoot to open more. Dun think they will do that well as I think the burger business is too saturated in this tiny red dot IMHO.
Didn't try Wendy's, but Burger King is better than McDees. Otherwise try Carls Jr. which I think is the best between Burger King and McDees. But it's abit expensive in M'sia.

I think each chain has its specific best-foot-forward burger. For us here in the Philippines, it would be the various Whoppers at BK, the Big Mac at McD's, and the various big burger types at Wendy's.
For me I like Wendy's best because I can eat so many things on their menu - that and I'm a big fan of their Frostee soft-serve ice cream. If there was a branch near my office, I'd probably eat there a lot :) I'm glad they're going strong here, no intentions of closing down.

Although over here Burger King is known as Hungry Jacks, I prefer Hungary Jack's burgers the most although they're some of the greasiest burgers and they're premade and microwaved to the order.
About that......
lol only their non beef burgers are nuked in the microwave. but their buns are provided by tip top, who also provide the buns to maccas. but HJs burgars are very sloppy though. but with maccas, they dont premake their burgars. its all made on order to meet food standards instead of premaking it and leaving it on the heat shelves for 45 mins before throwing them out

When I went to Fanime '09 and ate a In-N-Out over there and it was the best burger in California. Still, the burgers from the local Lotaburger here in New Mexico have the Best Damn Burgers Ever! Eat one and their fires will make you into a Lotaburger fan.
Oh my god, Lotaburger! I ate them quite often (probably too much) while I lived in Santa Fe.. But man, In N Out is just as good too. :D And now there's one like, 10 minutes away in my town in the East Bay.
Oh, and I actually prefer Wendy's over Mickey D's or Burger King...the latter of which tastes like the hide of a babboon's behind for me. :/

BK is overly priced, but the taste is just wonderful.
In Brazil the best Burger Franchise is X-Picanha definetily, if anyone comes to Brazil, get into one of these and ask for a Big X-picanha, and prepore your stomach for a huge amount of meat.

haven't touched McD's in about 4 or 5 years now, not gonna start anytime soon...
same goes for BK and other fast food joints, i did have Wendy's like 1 or 2 years back once? but not since, and only cause there was nothing else at the time, didn't really have a choice...
If i have a burger, it'd be at a real restaurant, not a fast food joint

Wendy's here actually tastes much better than BK's burgers. McD's burgers taste like poop but still so popular since there's so many McD's here.

When i was still a chibi-Tami (about 5-7y old) i was always keen on geting a McD's burger when we were in the town.
However, nowdays McD's is only an emergency solution for me... i need to be starving really badly to eat something there... sometimes i feel slightly sick after eating there (except ice cream ofc ^^;)
Burger King is my first choise in case of burgers noways and i guess it won't change anytime soon.

If given the choice between burger places I would get burgers from Wendy's (be sure to ask for packets of chili sauce, it sounds gross but tastes all kinds of crazy-sexy-awesome,) fries from Burger King, and about a trillion Chicken McNuggets from McDonalds.

We don't have Wendy's in HK, but where I call Home(Canada), we do, and I refuse to eat BK there, cause Wendy's is so much better. Still, my burger chain of choice is Fat Burger. I've heard good things about "In and Out", but never been to one, so I wouldn't know...
Of course, every chain could have a slightly different flavor depending on which country you're having it from... Cept McDees... The same nostalgically cardboard-like texture/flavor world wide~
Those mentioning MOS Burger, IMO, they don't make burgers either. They make ground beef sandwiches. They're a definate option if you want something different, but they do NOT do burgers.
unemployed machinist.. yeah
I honestly think they all suck.. personally ^_^
but if I had to chose.. of those three. wendy's has the better food period.
THough, for my money.. its Arby's all the way ^_^ Roast Beef and cheddar, Chicken samichs.. Mmmmmmm Tasty tasty! And they got deli style sammichs too can't keep that with a stick at all.

erm ... which do I prefer, well not having had any of them in the last 15 years (at least) I'd have to say "none of the above". Given all the other yummy looking food that Danny posts photos of I'm not sure why people would bother having a burger and chips when in Japan.

If I am given the choice between McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's, I'll choose Wendy's every time... in the US.
I've been to Burger King and McDonald's in several Latin American countries, and thus far I'm far more partial to McDonald's. I find that ironic considering that I find it nigh-inedible in the US.
I've never seen a Wendy's overseas, though. I was so looking forward to Wendy's in Japan, but I suppose that dream may not come true.

Burger King. No challenge there. Mostly for the French Chicken and the Whopper series really.
Oh and free refills too. Reminds me to get one this week. Haven't had any in a month.....XD
London used to have Wendy's and their burgers were the best in comparison to Burger King and McDonalds. Now that Wendy's has been gone from London for many years, I'm left with Burger King, KFC and McDonalds from the big fast food chains pretty close to where I live. Excluding KFC, I rank Burger King above McDonalds.
The Big Mac and the Whopper is tasteless, so i don't like them, but if i really hungry and have enough money for food like stuff, i choose Whopper. I love hamburgers, so the Wendy's got a chance from me, if they come here.

When I'm in the West I don't mind Wendy's so much. Compared to its competition, the place is pretty decent. However, when in Japan, it's up against the likes of Mos Burger, Lotteria, and McDonald's Japan, all of which are significantly better. I can see why Wendy's was having some difficulty in the region.

I don't have much contact with Wendy's, but I do like both Burger King, McDonald's and Bobs (the last one I think is a brazillian chain which works on the same fast food model).
Don't eat much in those though, not because I don't like, but because I know it's not very healthy.

I can't vote as I don't know what Wendy's taste like. Between Burger King and McD's, I prefer McD's. But again, Burger King fast foods came to the Czech Republic only about half a year ago, and I haven't eaten there yet. I was in Burger King when I was in UK, and frankly, it tasted so bad that I didn't even finish it. The fries were the worst part. I wasn't the only one. None of my friends - they were all Czech - liked the food there in particular. I have got the feeling that fries, and maybe also burgers, have a bit different taste in some countries. I base my opinion on the fact that I didn't really like the fries in McDonald's in UK either, but I love them in my country. So the fries in UK probably differ in taste from those in the Czech Republic. I wonder if anyone else has noticed any difference in McD's fries in different countries.
My fav food in McDonald's are fries, Fruit Pie, McFlurry, and McSundae. I don't really like their burgers. When I want a burger, I go to KFC.

We only have McDonald's here and a couple of similar Finnish restaurants. I'm happy with McDonald's, though sometimes I'd like to see a bit better service. Sometimes I don't get what I ordered and once the was a guy who didn't understand Finnish. But usually everything is okay. Wendy's has never been here and Burger King left Finland in the late 80s, if I remember correctly. Actually it was exactly 25 years ago when the first McDonald's was opened in Finland.

@Poll: Burger King, as I've been eating them more nowadays than others.
I've definitely came across more BK's and McD's than Wendy's over here, but Wendy's provides better food quality-wise imo (love their budget chili and bake potatoes :3).
Exploring worlds and ways of thought
Yep, sometimes it does. BK is best tasting, but the next day I go screaming straight to the bathroom after eating a Whopper. I think it's the mayo....maybe. It dosen't stop me though^^.
I rarely eat fast food, but I prefer Burger King to the others.

Yep I like BK more than Macdonalds, but I also like Carl's Junior.
The only Burger King I remember I have been in Tokyo was one on my way to Tokyo Tower. But that was quite a few years ago so I am not sure if it is still there.

Burger King here in the States is good, but expensive. Wendys is really expensive, but they have a lot of beef. McDonalds is cheap. Are there no Arbys in Japan? There's some good eating, right there.
IT manager
I have to say, the one time I ate at Wendy's in Japan, it was EXACTLY the same quality as in the U.S. EXACTLY. Can't say the same for McDonald's in Japan with their egg burgers and the like. I'm not taking a side because there is undoubtedly a lot that is unknown to the general public regarding this situation. But if Wendy's is claiming that the Japanese aren't doing it right, I have to differ with that position.

I haven't been to a Wendy's in ages...I usually eat at Jack-in-the-Box or Carl's Jr...but from that list I'd choose McDee's...

Wendy's is a bit scarce in my area for some reason, but it's still doing alright in the US.

Burger King? Burger King? BURGER KING? Sorry, I just don't like burger king... Not after I tried delicious In'n'out's delicious double double. It's a good thing and a bad thing that In'n'out is only in the western areas of US.
I'de vote for white castle for the second burger chain I would eat at.

I really don't like any of those more than any other. We have a local called Swensons has best burgers ever. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swensons

Most snack bars and cafes here in Australia serve infinitely better burgers than anything the franchises can put out. INCLUDING the overhyped Angus Beef burgers. I usually only eat at McDonalds or Hungry Jack's (Burger King) here in if I need food and don't have time (and don't care about the taste).
There's no Wendy's here in Oz, but we had them in the Philippines. And I only ever went to Wendy's for their Baked Potatoes--they were actual fist-sized potatoes, as opposed to the marbles that Filipino supermarkets usually sold.

I hate Burger King or my local one they just make it bad mcdonalds is the best for me no matter what people say about it being bad it still taste good and sells.
its all about in and out burgers and they are a privated family owned franchise. all their ingredients are fresh and i love their fries

Not 5 minutes walk from where I live is a MDees a KFC a Subway and 2 pizza joints, unfortunately they would all go broke in a week if they relied on me. 10 years and I haven't spent a cent in any of them.

Wendy's is a hamburger joint? for some reason i thought it was a place that served ice cream... That being said.. i dislike all burger joints, quite unhealthy... so i care not. Hehe :P

Based on the foot traffic, the Wendy's that's right by USC will never go out of business.

The logo offends me, looks like it hasn't been updated for 60 years. Some horrible ancient "wild west" font with a scary, overly happy girl. Is she Wendy? I don't want her burgers!
Seriously, I passed by Wendy's due to this very fact. The old looking logo made me think it was some cheap rundown place. No hesitation when visiting Moss Burger however. Oh the power of branding :)
we don't have Wendy's here, so I'll go with BK over McD's. Whenever I eat at McD's I can taste it all day

I didn't vote as I don't eat beef burgers. I only ever eat Chicken burgers and only about once a year. Wendy's don't do burgers here in Oz, as far as I know.

I like Wendy's, but hard to find in Chiba
Hehe, Occupation, really?
Voted for Burger King, although all three possibilities pretty much suck T_T

Same with me. I also do not eat beef.
But:
McD's burger is still quite ok in Singapore but the quality had drop a lot in Malaysia. Love the latest McD burger called Teppanyaki Chicken Burger. Feel like eating Spicy Chicken McDeluxe burger again the best burger in McD.
BK is not that good as there are few variety for me to eat as most of them serve beef burger. Still the grill chicken mushroom burger is still the best in BK for non-beef burger.
Zinger fish burger is also not bad at all in KFC but really hate KFC as their advertisement is very misleading. Don't ever go to KFC if you see nice advertisement from them as the things they give are always very small. This is true in Malaysia.
I also feel like eating rice burger in MOS burger as their rice burger is one of the best in Singapore.
I am now the biggest fans of Subway burger. They are the burgers where you can put as much as vegetable into it.
Haven't really try Wendy's burger but will try to look for it in Singapore.

No wonder the burger I had a McDee's the other day tasted a bit different. I was eating baboon's behind... I can't disagree with Danny. The McDee's beef burgers here are not tasty at all. Next time, I will make sure to order something else. Thanks for confirming Danny. :D
Japan should totally look into bringing Chick-fil-A there http://www.chick-fil-a.com
Once you try it, it'll be hard to step into a KFC XD

Danny, you don't have In-N-Out on that list. It's the best burger place, better than all those three combined. It's mostly on the West Coast over here. I avoid McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's like the plague lol. Is there a Carl's Jr over there? All this talk about food is getting me hungry again -_-.

Wow I don't go to Wendy's much but it's sad to see 71 stores close...

I hate McDonalds. Burger King is okay, but still far from my choice of food.

Bloody shame. I was fond of the teriaki burgers at Wendys too. Oh well. I'll try to eat there more before they are gone for good. ):
This also limits my choices for burgers to Mcdonalds, Burger King, and A & W (only on base).

I dunno if it was because MOS Burger was overly hyped up to me by my friends... but I was disappointed. It wasn't horrible, but I don't think I would eat there again on my next trip. I can even say that I was annoyed afterward because eating at MOS Burger meant it was one less yummy meal to be had somewhere else during my limited stay in Tokyo. >_<
Student
I'm more of a McDonalds guy anyways. But a teriyaki burger sounds amazing ... Then again, I could make one at work ...
Sushi restaurants FTW! :]
Boring one...
I mostly go to mos burgers or burger king seldom go to carls jr though as its mostly in the city area

Another burger I tried is called "MarryBown". Their burger is not that good at all.
Don't ever try "Ramlee" burger as their burger is unhygienic.
The burgers in your area must be better than here. McDonald and Burger King makes me feel queasy. Wendy's the only one that I really like since it is really fresh. Jack in the Box is also great too.
Dreamer, does that work?
I used to like McDonald's food ages ago. Then one day on a trip down to a semi local anime shop in the next state over went through the drive thru ordering a quarter pounder with cheese, large fry, large coke. Once I got on the highway I began to eat. First thing I noticed was the meat was way off on one side of the burger, took a few more bites... no beef. The patty was missing. So I ate the bun, them moved onto the fries. They smelled like all the gym lockers in the world when up close to my nose. Those went out the window. The coke... was the last straw. All fizz, no flavor.
I've since changed to Burger King, I LOVE their chicken fries with barbecue sauce. ^^
As for Wendy's I only eat from them if there's no Burger King around.
