On our way to the Sakura Taisen shop, we were pretty hungry, so we stopped into a McDonald’s to relive our old pastime of having cheeseburgers. What we didn’t know was that we were entering one of the remaining stores in McDonald’s failed “McDonald’s Dining” experiment. They set up a few stores with nice decor and an upscale menu, in hopes of attracting a more choosy demographic, perhaps to compete with nicer places like Mos Burger. Instead they got a place where you can pay way too much money for way too little food. I suppose it is like Mos Burger in that you spend 1000 yen or more and still feel very hungry after you’ve eaten.
