Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan｜Kushidori Sanbangai

Accidentally stumbled upon this place while hunting for a lunch stop; coincidentally realized we were at a sister restaurant the night before, but at a different location because the menu was exactly the same. However, for lunch, you order via vending machine and receive a ticket that you give to the waitress and they then deliver food to you at a table/booth which you select. It is a clever concept b/c you save money on staff as you serve yourself your own water, a hostess to greet you, etc. Waitresses will come around and see if you'd like to order any special drinks but other than that you are on your own. The food - was wonderful! Tasty tonkatsu - much better than any in Hawaii, as well as the curry! It was a dark colored base, rich in spices and fulfilling. The miso, again, better than any fine dining restaurant in Hawaii - just excellent all around and very reasonable!

Kushidori is always good. If only they they had nomihodai!! The mochi bacon is the best.

Great food! Get the cheese in minced chicken! 👍
