Sushi in Otaru
Otaru is famous for sushi, so I visited Ise Sushi, which I researched on the Internet.
I called to make a reservation without worrying too much because it was a Saturday night, but I was told that they could only take seats from 5:00 p.m. So I changed my plans and had an early dinner.
It is not far from the station, just a 5-6 minute walk, but in the opposite direction of what is known as the sushi restaurant street.
I had Ate almost the entire time and my family who went with me had Sushi from the middle of the meal, all of which were wonderful in both freshness and taste, and we enjoyed Hokkaido's seafood.
I was particularly impressed with the "Tachi Ponzu", "Shiromi no Kombusame", and "Toro no Aburi".
The restaurant also offers a wide selection of Hokkaido sake, including Sapporo Classic and a wide variety of Japanese sake.
In the end, the bill was just under 24,000 yen for me, who was served about 10 different kinds of appetizers until the end of the meal, two of us who ate 12 cans of sushi with about 5 different kinds, a bottle of beer, and about 4 gou of sake (junmai ginjo, a local sake made in Hokkaido).
I had an image that sushi restaurants in Otaru are expensive, but at this price, I was satisfied, or rather, very satisfied.
The counter is spacious and comfortable.
The person in charge of our meal was very friendly and helpful, and he gave us a good explanation not only about the food but also about the food situation in Hokkaido, which made our time there very enjoyable.
This restaurant is perfect for those who want to eat sushi with fresh seafood in Hokkaido.
No wonder the restaurant is full of reservations.
