Kumaboshi!: Sapporo Food: Spicy Soup Curry Legon
http://kumaboshi.blogspot.com/2013/06/sapporo-food-legon-soup-curry.html
Monday, 24 June 2013. Sapporo Food: Spicy Soup Curry Legon. If you check this blog sometimes then I'm sorry for the lack of posts. Explanations will be forthcoming at some point or another. Let's get back to the soup curry! Spicy Soup Curry Legon. I had the buta kakuni (slow cooked pork) with extra chicken meat-ball topping. Yuki had the chicken meat-ball soup, which was why I got the topping: to stop myself stealing any of hers. There's a lot more on their menu that I'd like to try too, some rea...The k...

Tuesday, 15 November 2011. The vast Northern island of Japan where I live! And it's getting pretty bloody cold at the moment! Seriously, I was sorely unprepared for how chilly it was out there today. Sorry for the shoddy photos this time out, it was an authentically dimly lit bar. My phone camera (such a pro-blogger, I know) had a hard time. We tried a bunch of things, mostly with a Hokkaido bent, but I should probably cut to the chase and show you what Hachikyou is most famous for - the sukko-meshi.

Kumaboshi!: Sapporo Food: Beans Happy Home-made Meat Pies

Monday, 24 June 2013. Sapporo Food: Beans Happy Home-made Meat Pies. No you did not read that wrong! A meat pie shop in Sapporo, Japan where most people take their pie cues from the USA where pies are all sweet and stuff. Sigh. For Brits and Antipodeans this is an injustice that has gone too long unchallenged. I'll put it on my map. It's between Nishi 18 Station and Hokkaido Museum of Modern Art so it's not that hard to find. I also found this page. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). My last.fm page.

Kumaboshi!: Sapporo Food: Garaku Soup Curry
http://kumaboshi.blogspot.com/2013/01/sapporo-food-garaku-soup-curry.html
Monday, 21 January 2013. Sapporo Food: Garaku Soup Curry. The place smelled great and the menu looked so good it was hard to choose. But sadly in the end Garaku was just 'good'. I wouldn't put it up there with the best soup curry I've had in Sapporo. It was, however, absolutely soup curry. I was griping about Soup Curry S. What is amazing though? I just noticed that you can use google streetview to go inside. The place, so check that out too. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Wait, who are you again?

Tuesday, 25 June 2013. Sapporo Food: Tozai Russian Restaurant. In my absence from blogging I went to a whoooooooole bunch of places and took pictures intending to blog about them. I then proceeded not. To blog about them. Where was the flaw in my plan? How did things go wrong? Perhaps we will never know. Perhaps we will never care. Almost certainly we will never care. Good I honestly don't remember what anything was called except for the piroshiki (sp? But I'd really like to go back there sometime and tr...

Tuesday, 6 August 2013. Sapporo Cafes: Smooch Coffee Stand. Looks like a company that has been around for a while in Sapporo, roasting beans and providing coffee to cafes, and since May this year they have there own lovely little coffee shop right next to Nakajima Park. Smooch deals in organic coffee with a link to a Santa Cruz, California based coffee supplier (I think.) and their aesthetic in general is one of sun-bleached, easy-going California chic. So go take a look! If you happen to follow this blo...

Wednesday, 9 May 2012. Sapporo Food: Hamburger RISA. Man, I was so glad to find out that this place had opened up again. Used to be out West on the Tozai line (and I wrote about it on this blog way back when. In fact there's a full band set-up in the corner and it looks like for a while they were doing live music there every Saturday night. Hamburger RISA is pretty easy to get to. It's at North 13, West 1, and the closest station would be Kita 12 Jo (EDIT! I just realised that the closest station is Kita...

Monday, 26 December 2011. Best Albums of 2011. IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER, as they say:. Fucked Up - David Comes To Life. I liked individual songs by Fucked Up before but this is the first time they really clicked for me over an album length. It's just a fantastic, fantastic rock record, like one long anthem to love and how tough it is. Actually in a way it's like an hour-long chorus, which I guess is how your music sounds when you have a frontman whose every utterance sounds ripped out of his guts. I went u...
