The kids wanted a quick Wendy’s Hamburger while in Tokyo, Japan. David and I figured we could eat a Wendy’s Hamburger right around the corner from our house just like the ones here. Nope, there is a difference… Check out this Tokyo Wendy’s.
TIP: 550yen is approximately $5.50 US. So a single Wendy’s Hamburger, is $5.50, pretty close to the prices we pay at home. The hamburger looks the same, but it tastes slightly different – but check out the rest of the menu, pasta, shrimp, green tea drinks….There is even a hamburger bun hamburger, and the funniest thing of all, a Jim Beam mixer. David, had to try one, I took a sip, it was cold and frothy. Sabrina loves this green melon soda, and her Corgi stuffed animal from the crane game earlier in the week.
Were a Metro Detroit, Michigan, couple – second marriages for both of us – and we dream of retiring early to Travel the World. Follow us while we try and figure out to raise our kids, and save to retire.
David is a Robot Programmer, Laura is a Medical Physicist. We put our kids before ourselves for years, saved and ate at home and now after years of all this sacrifice and raising our kids - we are closing in on empty nesting, and we realized we have the opportunity to retire earlier than most and follow our dreams to travel the world.
How are we going to do this? Well we have a lot of ideas, but lets see how it works out. Our original retirement date was January 1, 2021. We are reviewing the option of working another 3 years but prefer to keep the 2021 date, either way we will be retired by 55 years old - still trying to figure out how, but working toward our goal everyday, while enjoying each other and our blended family.
Follow us to see what happens.

I did not actually try any food at this Wendys, just the kids did, we went out to a local restaurant when we got back home and they served all kinds of meat on a stick. I will post it tomorrow.
We ate so much raman, and alot if times, we weren’t even sure what kind, it just looked good. I have only three more posts this week in Tokyo, then were off to Alaska and well be posting that I hope for two weeks. Then back to normal family stuff.
I’m not from the US so I don’t actually know what a Wendy’s tastes like anyway! But I can imagine there was some interesting stuff on the Japanese menu! x
I tried Mc Donald in Italy, I did not enjoyed it.
