It is home to a large US Naval base.
And where there is a slice of America there are usually burgers...
Honey Bee's has been around since 1968...their navy burgers are pre-made 1/2 pound patties and the huge fluffy buns help hold the sandwich together while eating.
As the waitress said, "just smash it down and go for it" (well, something like that in Japanese)
Super juicy and well seasoned...this was hefty...1680 yen (tax included)...and I also added cheese 150 yen.
This came with fries and a drink (which I ordered a cola).
Satoshi had an orange Fanta.
While eating it was nice to listen to KSSK which they had streaming in too.
Another popular food in Yokosuka is their curry which I believe is influenced by the Japanese Navy...we'll have to come back to try that...
This is where retired Japan warship, Mikasa is parked and where you can pay to roam around inside.
They had fish freshly caught at the nearby Misaki area.
I picked up some otoro (fatty tuna)
I also found some purple sweet potato that was grown in Chiba...550 yen total for the veggies I bought.
The weather was nice and we were glad to be able to explore this area.
It was also a nice change to see many Caucasians.
We hope to come back for some cherry blossoms too.

Luckily the fish and veggies were ceap compared to the burgers! Burgers here run about the same too with all the fixings..Teddy's Bigger Burgers, The Counter, etc.!
Ooh, if my daughter saw that Hello Kitty jacket, I think she would go ape. I guess as long as Hello Kitty is older than you, it's okay to still be all into that :/

V, the veggies were so cheap! wanted to buy more but didn't want to carry it around.
Take care!

Man 2300 yen for a burger! Looks like you got some good fish and other stuff though.
Kirk, pricey but it did include the fries and drink.
Take care!

your mention of the warship reminds me that I still aim to read Clouds Above the Hill (at least the first volume) by the end of the year -- what a day you guys had!
Rowena, it was nice to be out and about :)
Take care.
