It had been a while since I visited, and on my way back home, I stopped by this newly opened store in the summer. It's my first visit here. The atmosphere and scale are different from the main store, but it seems like Seijo Ishii has various developments from Excelsior to mini stores. It has a unique store style in Chitose-Karasuyama. There is also a fresh meat department. Since the nearest store is currently under renovation and closed, I did a little shopping here. I bought the pistachio spread that a fellow reviewer had been enjoying early on, and also a pack of stick pizzas that are easy to cook in a toaster oven. I used my own bag, but they put a net over the spread bottle to prevent it from breaking, and added a cooling pack for the pizza. The checkout process and packaging were efficient, and the staff was friendly with a smile, which was nice. The pistachio spread is smooth at room temperature. It stayed that way until I opened it, but I kept it refrigerated after opening. If you take it out of the fridge a little before eating, it's easier to spread on bread. It tastes sweet when it's smooth, but it has a different flavor when it's a bit solid, which is interesting. The pistachio spread has a deliciousness different from peanut butter. It seems like it will be a good accompaniment to bread alongside jam. The stick pizza is a long rectangular mixed pizza. It's a perfect size for snacks with alcohol, light meals, or as a side for pasta. It's convenient to bake in a toaster oven, easy to handle, and has a sturdy crust. It comes with two slices of pepperoni sausage. I was able to enjoy the leftover pizza by freezing it. Chitose-Karasuyama has various supermarkets, which is enviable. Seijo Ishii is a store that fully meets such needs. I will visit again. Thank you for the meal.

21.8.1 Newly opened store visited for the first time on 7/29. I went to buy lunch. The store was quite crowded, probably due to the novelty of being newly opened. However, the aisles were narrow, making it difficult to pass by and shop a bit inconvenient (^_^;) When I looked at the deli corner, there was a decent variety of side dishes, but the bento boxes were not very well-stocked, with only noodles and sushi rolls. Seijo Ishii stores can vary greatly depending on the location and size. This time, I purchased the "Mixed Sandwich" (excluding tax 260 yen) and the "Popular Variety Set" (excluding tax 450 yen). Both had a 5% discount sticker on them. The mixed sandwich had tuna, ham and cheese, and ham and egg, tasting similar to convenience store sandwiches, but still quite delicious. The variety set included 6 types of 9 small bread rolls, perfect for snacks or breakfast as indicated on the sign (^_^)v Next time, I might go buy the famous premium cheesecake (*^_^*)
