Restaurant & Bar BK

Broil King Grilled Cuisine!

J

ust a five minute walk from Hainuzuka Station on the JR Kagoshima Line, BK is a restaurant run by OMC's agent and sole Japanese distributor for Broil King, Canada's number one gas grill. BK moved to

fukuoka-now.com

Chikugo in December 2012 after three years in Kurume.

The menu features a range of authentic North American cuisine made on Broil King grills, including grilled steak the likes of which you would normally only find in Tokyo's specialty shops. BK's steaks are Certified Angus Beef, the highest quality beef in North America. The beef is sent chilled, not frozen, and aged with a process called semi-dry aging. Excess fat is removed before the beef is smoked, so the steaks are firm on the outside but juicy in the middle; the aroma is mouth-watering! BK also offers burgers made from 100% additive-free fresh ground beef and flavored with herb salt as well as buffalo-style chicken—a North American standard. Lunches start at ¥850 and full

Tomek Ziemba

O

riginally from Ottawa, Canada, Tomek Ziemba (nickname TK) came to Kyushu on the JET Programme in 2007. Since arriving, however, he has taken a different path to his teaching colleagues. You may recognize the quirky and charismatic TK from his gig on stage as MC at last year’s Canada Day Party where he entertained a crowd of over 1,200 with his fellow Canadian co-host Nita. The party got his side-career as an MC rolling, seeing TK take up offers for weddings and other MC jobs. A year later, TK just started a new full-time job as an Assistant Professor at the Oita National College of Technology. Teaching and researching keeps him busy Monday to Friday, but the ever-busy TK also has a Sunday gig as the personality of the LOVE FM Top 40 Countdown. Live at Solaria Parkside Studio, he counts down Kyushu’s top songs for the week in English and Japanese. TK is a proud Canadian. He says his most Canadian trait is that he loves “being friendly with anyone, anytime, anywhere”. Meet him later this month at the Canada Day party on June 28, where he’ll pump up the crowd again as MC. Party details, p. 8.
