Caption: Food Adventure No. 5 — Fish Burger !!
Basil tartar sauce, paired with a green burger bun, and star shaped hashbrowns? The One Piece Exhibition did not fail to impress. I don’t watch the anime, but I know of a character named Zoro, with green hair, who wields swords. I think I’ve found my favourite.
