Hidden Izakaya in Susukino for Drinks and Small Bites
Tucked away in a back alley in the Susukino County of Sapporo, this hidden-style izakaya offers a welcoming, home-like setting. The menu features items that pair well with sake, including its specialty grilled shabu-shabu, grilled fish, and yakitori. The drink selection centers on sake from Hokkaido, along with options such as corn-based shochu from the Tokachi region.
Hokkaido Seafood Grilled Over Charcoal
Grilled fish features selections such as Atka mackerel from Rausu, along with Hokkaido-sourced channel rockfish and salmon belly, all prepared over charcoal for a juicy finish. Sashimi includes natural bluefin tuna from Hakodate in Hokkaido and Oma in Aomori, as well as seasonal fish of the day, with priority given to reservations for these items.
Taste and Compare Brand Pork in Grilled Shabu-Shabu
A popular choice is the "grilled shabu-shabu tasting of Ishikari-sourced Mourai pork and Kitahiroshima wine pork," featuring two varieties of Hokkaido brand pork: "Mourai pork," known for its lightly sweet and clean-tasting fat, and "Kitahiroshima wine pork," characterized by tender lean meat with a smooth, subtle sweetness. Grilled over a tabletop charcoal brazier and served with a dashi-based gelée, the dish highlights the natural flavors of the ingredients.
