Christmas Meal@KFC Japan 水天宮前店

KFC Christmas Scam. Finally tried KFC on Christmas Eve, which is only available to Japanese people. Not the hype I was expecting. We reserved the order a month in advance. Nothing special for 40th anniversary. No lining up like the photos on the Internet. Did not know that dine-in wasn't allowed with the Christmas bucket. Togo pickup only. Gratin requires baking. No commemorative Christmas plate or gift (They had commemorative Christmas plate last year). Disappointing experience. Thankful for the nice handwritten Christmas note from the store though.



Only item available for dine-in

Pre-Order Pick up Only

Togo only. No dine-in available



Nice gesture from the store team
