Kita no Aji to Nagomi Poaro

First, a taste of Hokkaido! This is an assortment of five appetizers that we hope you enjoy with a casual mindset. What we serve are five small stories packed with the day's best selections. In fact, everything from the soy sauce to the miso is produced in Hokkaido. No strict rules here. With your favorite local beer in hand, feel free to savor the blessings of the northern land. 'It seems like it's going to be a great night'... such a feeling is swelling, in the style of Poirot's hospitality. Please relax and embark on this culinary journey that begins here!

Look at this overwhelming presence! The fresh oysters raised in the cold sea of Hokkaido are surprisingly large and creamy. Paired with our 'Homemade Ponzu', a luxurious blend of Hokkaido soy sauce and citrus. This golden ratio, with a focus on local ingredients, is unique to Poaro. The moment the aroma of the sea and the refreshing taste of ponzu spread in your mouth is truly a blissful moment. First, take a big bite and enjoy. The blessings of the northern sea will fill your heart.

You might not need an explanation anymore. The sea urchin delivered directly from the sea of Hokkaido is like a shining jewel, with each piece. The moment it enters your mouth, a rich sweetness spreads, and the aroma of the sea gently wafts away, creating a luxurious experience. There are no strange quirks, just '100% Purity' as it is in the original place, right here in Yokohama.

The moment it arrives at the table, it elicits an exclamation. This is a platter filled with the 'seasonal' delights of Hokkaido. The star is the large botan shrimp, shining like a jewel, and the rare 'hokke sashimi' from its origin. The rich sweetness of the shrimp and the exquisite fat of the hokke that melts in your mouth. This combination is a luxury that can only be found at 'Poaro' in Yokohama. Of course, the soy sauce is also from Hokkaido. Enjoy this exceptional dish, which captures the freshness of the northern sea on your plate, along with chilled fine sake!

Is this really chilled tofu? It's a dish that makes everyone do a double take. The star is the rich Hokkaido tofu filled with the blessings of the earth. On top, we've piled on crab, salmon roe, and fresh sea urchin. It's truly a treasure trove of the sea, like a jewel box of chilled tofu. The soy sauce is, of course, from Hokkaido. Every time you take a bite, the sweetness of the tofu and the flavors of the sea melt together in your mouth. It pairs perfectly with ice-cold Hokkaido beer or sake! You must experience this luxury.

'Small but incredibly powerful!' That is the charm of Ezo abalone. Abalone raised in the harsh northern seas has firm flesh and an unmatched concentration of flavor. You can enjoy the crunchy texture as sashimi or savor the fluffy sweetness when cooked. The moment the aroma of the ocean spreads in your mouth is truly an adult's luxury. With a chilled white wine or sake in hand, indulge in this 'Northern Treasure' all to yourself!

You will surely be surprised, 'Wait, is this really Hokke?' The thickness and juiciness are on a different level from the Hokke you all know. The secret is 'low-temperature cooking.' By taking the time to heat it slowly, we have locked in the deliciousness within the surprisingly thick fillets. Finishing with a crispy skin creates a fragrant aroma that hits your appetite! We even insisted on using Hokkaido soy sauce for a unique finish. Enjoy the sweetness of the fat that bursts out the moment you take a bite, paired perfectly with a cold beer! It also goes exceptionally well with sake!

The unique smell is not strong, which is proof of the overwhelming 'freshness' that arrives from Hokkaido without ever being frozen. This clear fat's sweetness has been luxuriously grilled in thick slices. By cooking it slowly at low temperatures, the meat becomes surprisingly moist and tender. Of course, all the seasonings used are also from Hokkaido. This is a true delicacy nurtured by the northern land that we want everyone to try, especially those who are not fond of lamb!

Created from a playful spirit of 'enjoying Hokkaido to the last bite', this is a special parfait based on sake. The star ingredient is the fluffy and flavorful Hokkaido azuki beans. We have luxuriously infused it with the crisp aroma of locally produced sake. Not too sweet, it perfectly enhances the lingering taste of the alcohol, truly a 'drinkable parfait'. Of course, all ingredients are sourced from Hokkaido. Please take your time to enjoy this decadent and elegant finale with a warm cup of tea.

The reason why the voices of 'More!' never cease lies in this rice. The chosen one is the rare special cultivation 'Oborozuki' from Hokkaido. Once you taste it, you won't forget its strong stickiness like mochi and the rich sweetness that bursts forth with every bite. Of course, everything from the water used for cooking to the salt is purely from Hokkaido. Enjoy the luxurious freshly cooked rice that sparkles grain by grain, first on its own, and then with our proud dishes. Please enjoy the finest feast nurtured by the northern land.
