A Foodie’s guide to New Chitose Airport (Sapporo). You want to eat a really good sushi briefly?

Today, I will introduce you an excellent "standing" sushi bar in New Chitose Airport (Sapporo). This place is a hidden gem, because it's not located on the restaurant floor, nor listed on the floor map.

Hokkaido

[Hokkaido and Okinawa] why are they so fascinating? These opposite areas are quite different from the rest of Japan!

These 2 regions are at exactly opposite ends of Japan. Hokkaido is cold and Okinawa has a tropical climate. However, They have a certain kind of atmosphere in common - "somewhat new to Japan”. I also wrote about what you can expect in these 2 regions.
