You will not want to miss trying this quick, simple and affordable seafood meal.
Another of the attractions here are the famous Hokkaido crabs which is the main draw for many tourists as well as the local habitants.
The sashimi bowl above was what I had for lunch. Everything was good but the sashimi scallops really stood out. They were simply out of this world!
