FUMI’S EATING OUT GUIDE · 札幌

Eating out
in Sapporo.

Northern comfort. A very good appetite.

Make room for miso ramen, vegetable-filled soup curry and jingisukan lamb grills. Hokkaido seafood and dairy sweets give you quite a different choice for the next meal.

Odori Park and central Sapporo seen from above, with mountains beyond
A little time in Sapporo. Something lovely along the way.

01Local meals

Soup Curry GARAKU · Sapporo main

スープカレー GARAKU 札幌本店

⌖ Minami 3-jo Higashi 2-chome 6-1, Pleasant Minami3 Higashi2 B1F

Introduces one of Sapporo’s signature meals in plain terms: a spiced broth rather than thick curry sauce.

Something to try

Chicken-and-vegetable soup curry with rice; choose spice level conservatively.

Estimate ¥1,500–2,500 for curry and additions.

Before your visit

Use the current official address above. Older listings point to Minami2 Nishi2. The operator describes Japanese fish-stock ingredients; a vegetable-topped bowl is not automatically vegetarian.
