4. Want to grill some meat even at the airport? Matsuo Jingisukan Matsujin New Chitose Airport Branch

I was so engrossed in sightseeing that I missed out on eating Genghis Khan! I want to eat it again! I want to eat lamb with beer! This restaurant can fulfill all of these requests.

You can choose from three types of meat: lamb rib loin, premium lamb, and lamb jingisukan (grilled lamb)! There are also generously portioned sets available, so you're sure to be satisfied.

The meat is marinated in a special sauce, making it a delicious Genghis Khan (grilled lamb) dish! It goes really well with both beer and rice, so I highly recommend it. Personally, I think it's a good idea to enjoy seafood and ramen during your trip, and save the Genghis Khan for last.

We finished off by enjoying lamb here with a beer. With this, we've conquered all three major gourmet dishes. If you come to Hokkaido, you absolutely must enjoy Jingisukan at this fantastic restaurant!!

5. Meer Lounge, a pasta shop using Hokkaido-grown wheat.

Hokkaido offers more than just seafood and ramen. Don't miss the Italian cuisine that makes the most of the region's natural ingredients.

This shop offers pasta, pizza, tarts, and more, all made with Hokkaido-grown wheat and fresh milk. They have a strong commitment to homemade products, not only making the dough from scratch, but also creating original pizza and pasta sauces and salad dressings.

Among the dishes, I highly recommend the "German-style Bacon Pasta with Hokkaido-grown Kitakari Potatoes," which features a generous amount of the now-famous Kitakari variety of fluffy potatoes piled high on top of the pasta. The savory flavor of the thick-cut bacon enhances the potatoes and pasta. The sauce is, of course, homemade. It pairs perfectly with the chewy pasta.

And another item you should definitely check out is "pizza".

The restaurant's popular "Avocado and Shrimp Beauty Pizza" is generously topped with plump shrimp and avocado, making it a delightful choice for women! The crust is light and crispy, so you can easily eat a lot of it. They also offer limited-time pasta dishes using seasonal ingredients, and a wide variety of other menu items. The interior, furnished with homemade antique-style furniture, evokes the feeling of Hokkaido, creating a charming space that doesn't feel like an airport at all! Be sure to give it a try.

This restaurant is famous for its delicious kamameshi (rice cooked in a pot) made with plenty of fresh seafood from Hokkaido.
