With so many burger places in Hong Kong, 33.Kyoto that does something different. They have created a different sort of rice burger. Mentioned in many local publications, I was interested.

Located in Wanchai in an area with a number of inexpensive restaurants.
Menu is in English, Japanese and Chinese. They offer an upgrade to a set which includes a salad (either potato or sesame crab salad) and miso soup. Upgrade to a soft drink for $5 or special drink for $15. They also offer sides. The burgers are basically a rice patty wrapped in nori with different types of filling. You pay and order at the cashier before sitting own and they will bring the food to you. There is no 10% service charge.
As it's still newly opened, they are offering some burgers with a drink for $33. Or the signature lobster burger for 33% off.
As there was a discount, I ordered the lobster and upgraded to a set and a soft drink ($128 +$5 for the drink but with discount came out to $90). The rice patties are grilled so they are a bit chewy. There is a lobster tail that is not overcooked and so very moist yet firm. It's topped with a slice of grilled processed cheese but it oddly wasn't gooey. Just slightly toasted on top to not be melted. I think I would have preferred it to be melted. There is also some crunchy lettuce. All of this is wrapped in a crispy piece of nori.
I upgraded to a set and chose the potato salad. Definitely don't waste your money and upgrade to the set. Or at at least not order the potato salad. Greasy and oily. This is definitely not a Japanese style potato salad as I tasted no addition mayo. The all important Japanese mayo! It just tasted like greasy mashed potato. Skip this. Seriously. Save your money.
Boyfriend ordered the $33 special burger which included a soft drink which was a boiled pork rice burger with soft boiled egg. So with the grilled rice patty and nori, you get pieces of pork and soft boiled egg inside. I don't know if they were trying to mimic the Taiwanese style pork bao? Anyways ... the pork was moist and just pull apart goodness.
The egg, however, did not look like anything like the photo. The photo showed quartered eggs with the soft egg yolk. The description was soft egg yolk. What we actually got was egg white and NO egg yolk. It was also some sad slivers of egg white at that.
Overall, taste was ok. I don't know if I'd return. I might as I live close enough but I'd try something else. I'd definitely stay away from the set upgrades. I saw the special drinks as well as some people ordered it and most were left unfinished. I was fairly full but boyfriend was still starving so if you have a large appetite, portions might not be enough.
