Handmade Hamburger & Sandwich Specialty Shop popular among even vegetarians and vegans - “place in the sun”
Located at a 2-minute walk from Shibakoen Station on the Toei Mita line, “place in the sun” offers over 20 types of a little bit special hamburgers and sandwiches with the motto ‘The homemade, selected materials, originality and the taste that makes you feel right at home.’ It’s perfect for not only kitty party or a spot to take a breath while strolling around this area but also having a meeting over lunch because Wi-Fi is fully equipped.
The entrance surrounded by lush greenery has an atmosphere that makes you feel like you’re invited to a hideaway. When you step into the inside with excitement, rays of sunlight are shining through the large windows as what the name of this shop means. Its space with a high ceiling and lights giving off soft orange light produces a cozy ambiance.
The passion they put into selecting ingredients is special. Patty made from Japanese beef meat which is purchased from a butcher shop with about 150 years of history. Bread and buns offered by boulangerie from France ‘Maison Kayser,’ which make bread with traditional French techniques using their original flour, domestic fermented butter, and natural fermentation. Fresh vegetables from Japan which are selected by its owner by himself. By using these ingredients, they create over 20 types of exquisite hamburgers and sandwiches. In addition, you can find menus for vegetarians and vegans, which are made from whole wheat bread with a butter content of only 2%.
Our recommendation is ‘Cheese Burger.’ You can choose from two types of cheese: Cheddar with a rich taste or Gruyere with a creamy texture. The hamburger that they make one by one after receiving orders is filled with not only cheese but also red-leaf lettuce and tomato, onion, pickles and so on. The moment you take one bite, the gentle smell of wheat from buns firstly spreads. Later, the rich flavor of cheese and meat flavor are mixed and explode in your mouth. The sweetness and bitterness of various vegetables are also comfortable. By the way, there are other hamburgers: Bacon Burger whose grilled bacon has a kick to it, Avocado Burger with the savory flavor created by avocado and tartar sauce and so on. It’s a good idea to order a different type of hamburger from what your friend does and share them.
Why not order French Fries that go well with it? You can feel the original and savory taste of potato.
