For those unfamiliar, a chip butty is a classic British dish that essentially consists of a buttered roll with French fries stuffed in the middle. Now, Burger King Japan is offering a more elevated take on this combination with its new Guilty Porcini Burgers. The new burgers come in two varieties – the Beef Guilty Porcini Burger and the Chicken Guilty Porcini Burger – which means you can choose between a [flame-grilled beef patty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crispy-onion-whopper) or a fried chicken patty. Your protein of choice is then paired with a gourmet [creamy mushroom sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garlic-mushroom-bacon-cheeseburger) made with 5 different types of mushrooms, mayo, and a generous portion of French fries. Naturally, this rich combination of ingredients is all sandwiched between a pair of premium butter-soaked artisan buns. The new Guilty Porcini Burgers are available now from Burger King's Japanese locations.
