After shopping at Sapporo Station, we had a quick dinner at this newly opened restaurant in July. The interior was clean and nice. I forgot to take a picture of the menu! The highlight of their drinks is the alcohol-filled pot full of fruits! There were so many fruits in it! The alcoholic version was 2000 yen and the non-alcoholic version was 1600 yen, I think. Of course, we went for the alcoholic one, haha. It was packed with oranges, lemons, and berries! We made sure to eat all the fruits too, haha. It was quite a generous portion! But I think it was really worth it! The dumplings were delicious without a doubt! We had lamb dumplings, cheese dumplings, and plum shiso dumplings. The shrimp and coriander salad we ordered was also to our liking. I always have a good impression of Sapporo Gyoza Seizojo and this restaurant was no exception! It's located a bit away from the hustle and bustle of Sapporo Station, so it's a quiet and nice place! Thank you for the meal! ♥

The gyoza at SAPPORO Gyoza Factory was juicier and more delicious than I imagined! The jumbo-sized gyoza was too big to eat in one bite. When I bit into it, the delicious juice inside spilled out onto the plate. So, I had to suck on it like kissing to fully enjoy the juice along with the flavor. I would love to try their other gyoza, shumai, and fried chicken if I have the chance.

This morning, I didn't eat anything for my health check-up. After the check-up, I couldn't resist the urge to eat carbs, so I decided to go to the new branch of "SAPPORO Gyoza Seisakusho" near the clinic. I ordered the classic jumbo gyoza set, but it came with three pieces instead of four like I remembered. Maybe they raised the prices? When I showed a discount offer from Instagram at the checkout, I got a 10% discount. Nice. Even though I didn't order less rice, I managed to finish my meal, so the "carb monster" in me was satisfied. Haha.

I used to often get takeout from here before, so I was always wishing they had a location near the station - so I'm happy about this! Wait, no happy hour? I went in all excited... The lemon sour was from Kinmiya. This is great. I haven't been to all the Gyoza Seizosho locations, but it seems like each one has a different menu. Here, the shrimp and coriander salad was amazing. I remember taking a picture of the menu, but where did it go... Oh, there it is! The gyoza here is always good. I wanted to try the zangi too, but I'll save it for next time. I'll definitely be coming back. The interior was beautiful and cozy. Thank you for the meal!

On August 1st, I received a message from my friend M-chan saying that Mairebi is now open. I visited the restaurant without any prior notice of its opening. Mairebi has several locations in Sapporo, and this one quietly opened its doors. I ordered the popular Big Gyoza Zangi Set for 900 yen, which includes big gyoza, sauce zangi, side dish, rice, and miso soup. The side dish and water are self-service, with a variety to choose from. I found Totoron's salted fish roe! I ended up eating just the salted fish roe with rice instead of the gyoza and zangi. Be careful, the freshly fried sauce zangi is hot! The big gyoza can be eaten as is or dipped in vinegar. Oh, I also remembered the TKG Zangi - egg over rice with miso soup for 390 yen. It was quite delicious, maybe I'll have that next time.

It was delicious. Consistent. Thank you for the meal.
