After passing through the security checkpoint, there is a sushi restaurant in front of gate 7. They have counter seating as well as tables, and the turnover is good. You can choose from drink sets or individual items by writing on a small piece of paper to order, making it easy to grab a quick bite and have a drink. Thank you for the meal! It was nice to enjoy a little before boarding.

Early morning flight. I was wandering around the airport thinking about what to have for breakfast. Bread seemed like a good option, but I really felt like having seafood. Luckily, there was a long line of seafood bowls. They also had sushi. I chose the tuna bowl! They made it fresh after I ordered, so it was very fresh. I ate it right away, so it was delicious at the perfect temperature. I found out later that they also have standing tables. I will definitely go back!

☆New Chitose Airport 2nd floor☆Visited "Hokkaido Flavor Suzuhana" for the first time. Bought a bento box and boarded the first flight of the day. Had delicious hand-rolled sushi. The salmon and salmon roe were so tasty! Thank you for the meal.

(Recorded on September 12, 2023) I visited this restaurant in early June on a holiday evening. On this day, I had been driving around the Sapporo area during the day and was scheduled to return to Haneda Airport in the evening. I couldn't find a suitable place to have dinner before heading back to the airport, so I ended up having a light dinner at the airport. New Chitose Airport has an area called "Hokkaido Ramen Dojo," which gathers popular ramen shops. However, I had already tried it before when I was in Chitose, and I wanted to relax with a beer in the airline lounge, so I decided to look for a shop that offers takeout. There were various shops selling bento boxes, but most of them offered pre-made items. This particular shop, however, was known for making dishes to order, albeit at a slightly higher price. For detailed information with photos and descriptions, you can search "Kimura's Memo" at http://kimura.li/memo/?p=42200. - Where is the restaurant located? This restaurant is located on the 2nd floor of New Chitose Airport. It is positioned between departure gates C and D, behind the JAL counter. The shop is conveniently located near the departure gates, allowing you to quickly purchase your meal and head to the boarding gate without spending too much time searching for a restaurant. The display in front of the shop showcases various rice bowls and bento boxes, making it hard to miss as you walk by. - How crowded was it and what was the interior like? I visited on a holiday at 6 pm, a time when the restaurant area was somewhat busy. However, since this is a takeout shop, there was only one group of customers waiting for their order. A few more customers came in sporadically, but it was not overly crowded. Some popular items like temari sushi and crab rice bowls were already sold out. The visually appealing dishes at reasonable prices might explain their popularity. - What are the recommended menu items? This shop specializes in takeout seafood rice bowls, allowing customers to choose from a variety of food samples displayed in front of the shop. Customers can also select from three sizes based on their appetite, ranging from mini (150g) to large (280g). The combinations mainly consist of popular ingredients like salmon roe, crab, sea urchin, scallops, and salmon. Prices vary depending on the ingredients used, offering customers flexibility based on their preferences and budget. After much deliberation, I decided to go with the "Crab and Salmon Roe Rice Bowl - Large (2380 yen)." - Conclusion Although the cost-effectiveness may not be the best, the scenario of enjoying a freshly made, slightly luxurious meal while sipping beer in the lounge made the purchase worthwhile. The "Crab and Salmon Roe Rice Bowl - Large" that I ordered featured soy-marinated salmon roe with a rich flavor that complemented the creamy texture of the medium-sized grains. The crab was not watery, had a balanced saltiness, and the meat was tender and flavorful. The 280g of vinegared rice was just right, not overly filling for a satisfying meal. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience suitable for a relaxing evening at the airport lounge.

Upon arriving at New Chitose Airport, I was looking for a lunch bento to enjoy during my drive and stumbled upon this shop. Instead of traditional bento boxes, they make donburi bowls to order on the spot! Being a fan of ikura and crab, I decided to order the 3rd most popular dish, the Crab and Ikura Donburi (mini size). I also wanted to try bento boxes from other shops and the corn bread from Biei Senka, so I opted for the mini size. The vinegared rice was topped with plenty of crab and ikura, and the crab had no fishy smell and was easy to eat without shells. If you enjoy trying different delicious combinations, I recommend going for the mini size!

I used this place while waiting for my return flight from my Hokkaido trip. I bought a flower set, sea urchin, and Hokkai temari sushi and enjoyed them at the eat-in area next to the shop. Mmm, delicious! The sea urchin and salmon roe are tasty! The sea urchin, shrimp, salmon, and mackerel in the temari sushi are delicious! When in Hokkaido, this is a must-try! Thank you for the meal.

2nd day of landing in Hokkaido. I didn't sleep well last night and felt groggy in the morning. However, I managed to get ready in time for the shuttle bus to the hotel I had reserved. I arrived at the airport at 8:30 and struggled to find a place to eat until the last minute. There weren't many options open at that time. But since I was in Hokkaido, I wanted to indulge in seafood. I decided to go for a takeout option to eat at the airport. There were many choices, but I had my heart set on today's menu item... the Sea Urchin and Salmon Roe Bowl (medium) for 3,240 yen. It was a super luxurious bowl. I used 3 of the national travel support coupons I received, worth a total of 6,000 yen. I paid the rest in cash. It was a great deal. I received the food in about 5 minutes and sat at a nearby table to enjoy it. It was completely different from what I would eat in Tokyo. The salmon roe was plump and had just the right amount of saltiness, while the sea urchin was sweet and delicious without any chemical taste. Unhealthy food always tastes good. The amount of rice was just right for breakfast. If it were lunch or dinner, I would go for the large size. I don't know when I'll be able to eat this again, but if there are more coupons like this, I would love to try it again. Next time, I would still choose the Sea Urchin and Salmon Roe Bowl over any other option.

There are many shops closed at the airport in the 9 o'clock hour. The shop I was looking for has changed its hours, which is the worst. Even the shop inside the gate that I was looking for has changed its hours. There are a lot more people now, so I think sticking to the original schedule would be fine, right? Well! I guess the main thing is boxed lunches? The sushi is not great, and the sea urchin tastes like alum and is expensive. It would be better not to serve it at all. The homemade salted fish innards were delicious.

A quick and satisfying option for a snack! This shop on the ANA side offers delicious seafood that allows you to taste the best of Hokkaido before your flight. Today, I chose the salmon bowl because I ate too much the day before. There are two sizes available, M and L, with the salmon and rice increasing in quantity with the larger size. I ordered the salmon in L size with less rice. I always feel that ingredients from Hokkaido are of high quality, and when eating them in Hokkaido, they taste even better for some reason. The dish was served in about 5 minutes, making it a great choice for a quick meal even when you're hungry before your flight. Highly recommended!

Last night's drinking session featured a surprising seafood meal from Boomerang Dining in Hokkaido. I brought back Suzuhana Sushi from New Chitose Airport, which is known for their popular Suzuhana flyer, featuring Hokkai Temari Sushi with sea urchin, salmon roe, and scallop. I enjoyed some Kubota Manju sake with a tamago soup to relax and indulge in the delicious food. Hokkaido gourmet food and a happy meal are the best way to heal fatigue. #HokkaidoGourmet #HappyMeal #HappyMeal

At least two reviews are necessary. The difference between this place and the famous seafood company next door is that they make the food on the spot. Last time, I had pressed sushi and crab and salmon roe bowl (medium size for 1580 yen). Hmm...the salmon roe can't beat the one next door. It might be better to compete in a different aspect.

The early morning flight was not available anywhere else but here. I didn't have high expectations, but I decided to order the sea urchin and salmon roe rice bowl. To my surprise, the sea urchin wasn't bitter at all and was very delicious! I had low expectations for the sea urchin and salmon roe in the bento box, so I was amazed. Truly Hokkaido!

The bento shop at this airport where you can buy lunch before takeoff is here. There are other shops selling bento boxes, but I always find myself standing in front of this lineup of bentos. This time, just like last time, I got the popular No.2 Hokkai 3-Meal Donburi with fresh sea urchin for 2,780 yen. It says 20% OFF! The other option is Suzuhana's No.1 popular Hokkai Temari Sushi for 980 yen. The rice portion is quite large compared to the toppings, so I feel guilty leaving some rice behind. I think they could reduce the rice portion a bit. The Hokkai 3-Meal Donburi is made to order and it's delicious. Thank you for the meal.

Now, when it comes to boarding, I see a sign near the gate for a 20% discount on takeout rice bowls from Kitano Mikaku Suzuhana. Alright, I'll have this for lunch. My lunch is a scallop and salmon roe rice bowl. Scallops are delicious this season. My daughter is having the usual salmon and salmon roe rice bowl. Is this the fourth day in a row already?! Together, it was around 2400 yen after the discount. The toppings are a bit small, but in terms of value for money, it's not bad for an airport meal.

Checked out of the hotel near Sapporo Station and took the train to New Chitose Airport. Had a "night Shigepan" that I bought last night while waiting for my early morning flight, along with a cup of coffee. Although I was full, I started thinking about lunch. Had some time before boarding, so I searched for a delicious ekiben. After looking at a few shops, I decided on this one. It was nice to have it made fresh after ordering. While I was paying, I saw some girls next to me enjoying hand-rolled sushi. That looks good too. I'll have to try it next time. Thank you for the meal.

At the beginning of November, I had to work at Chitose Airport in the early morning. After finishing work, I wandered around the airport. For my third meal, I went to "Jitsuenkuben Kita no Mikaku Suzuhana." They had seafood bento boxes in the refrigerated case. I tried the "Grilled Mackerel Onigiri @200." After eating a few other things, I ended up taking it home. I warmed it up a bit in the microwave. The rice was cooked well, and the mackerel wasn't too salty. However, there wasn't a lot of filling. Overall, it was just average or below. If I have the chance to visit again, I will try something else. Thank you for the meal.

I chose a bento box at New Chitose Airport for dinner because I was short on time. The shop makes bento boxes with seafood right in front of you, but I opted for the most cost-effective option - the herring and salmon roe rice bowl for 1080 yen. It had flavorful herring and salmon roe, and I was satisfied with the cost performance.

This is a sushi restaurant located in the ANA departure lobby of New Chitose Airport. They offer takeout options with a sushi counter setting at the back. The showcase displays a variety of seafood chirashi sushi. However, the prices are a bit high. Next to it, they have a more affordable option - "Crab Inari Sushi". I decided to give it a try. It costs around 500 yen. The Crab Inari Sushi had crab packed inside the fried tofu pouch, and surprisingly, it had a decent amount of filling.

New Chitose Airport. I'm heading to Tokyo from here. I have a day off today, so I plan to explore Kamakura and stay overnight before a meeting. Since it's a day off and I'm going to Kamakura, I chose an early flight. Having breakfast at New Chitose Airport now. Not many places are open yet, so the options are limited. I thought about just getting a rice ball since I'll be eating a lot later. Found a grilled mackerel rice ball! I've never tried this before. I'll give it a try. Grilled Mackerel Rice Ball for 200 yen. I was worried it might be fishy, but it's actually sweet and delicious! The rice is firm and sweet, and the seasoning is just right. It was a great meal!

This is a regular search for onigiri before a flight. In the first and second attempts, even though I tried different stores, I ended up falling into the trap of finding onigiri only at Sato Suisan. However, this time I found a store that actually makes onigiri in-house. It is located near the escalator on the JAL side. The store mainly sells seafood bento boxes, but I found onigiri there. They are larger than the ones at convenience stores and one might be enough to satisfy you. They are similar to homemade onigiri. With this, I have now cleared three stores on the JAL side. From now on, I will have to go to the ANA side to find onigiri.
