The perfect place for a second party, you are guided to the counter. Intrigued by the wine tasting set, you choose the mysterious-sounding "Mumumu" and leave the rest to the friendly staff. The appetizer seems to be a pineapple carpaccio, which is quite unique. The wine pairing set with Jamón Serrano is excellent. As you look at the menu, you notice that they have a great selection for lunch and daytime drinking, like a set of 6 wines + 1 drink and 5 appetizers for 2,980 yen. You switch to highballs later on and order the red wine-braised beef cheeks. The braised beef cheeks are tender and undeniably delicious. By the time you leave, the place is full, and it's no surprise given the high number of women customers. Overall, satisfied and it was delicious. Thank you for the meal! Next time, I might come for daytime drinking too. ♡

I visited this restaurant for lunch after a long time. The prices have gone up compared to before, but I think the taste has improved. It's nice that you can drink from lunchtime, but I had work on this day... I ordered the Spicy Chicken set for 1080 yen. It comes with salad, soup, and bread. It wasn't too spicy, juicy, and very good!

"I enjoyed soba and beer at 'Ikkyu'. Then I attended a lecture by Chizuko Ueno at the HBC Hokkaido Cultural Institute, met up with friends, and enjoyed Italian appetizers and beer at 'La Jostla'. After that, we had oden and shochu at 'Namarayoshi', followed by finishing off with wine at 'Yoi Nokuchi' next door to 'Namarayoshi'. It was around 8 pm on Saturday and the restaurant was bustling, with a high ratio of women. We were seated at a table for four and ordered a wine tasting set of three types for 1380 yen, one white and one red each. Cheers! The colors of the red and white wines are so different when lined up together. It's fun to taste and enjoy them. I can briefly tell the difference between the wines next to each other, but to me, they are all just 'wine'. Even if I can't distinguish the differences in taste, it's okay, it's okay. The appetizer platter (450 yen) included edamame, eggplant, and paprika. For snacks, we had caprese with peach and mozzarella for 860 yen, apple and blue cheese for 580 yen. It felt like a combination of cheese, fruit, ham, and dessert with wine. We added red wine, Chateau Noaiyak for 800 yen. We spent about an hour and a half there and the total bill was 5900 yen for two people. We chatted a lot and drank a lot. I don't remember what we talked about, as usual."

I visited this restaurant after watching "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis" at Cinema Frontier. The movie ended around 8 o'clock. Many restaurants in JR Tower have last orders at 9 o'clock, so it can be inconvenient for dinner after a movie, but this restaurant is a reliable choice. The appetizer was Caponata, which went well with the crispy bread. The Jamon Serrano was described as "slightly firm" on the menu, but it was actually quite tender and flavorful. The Cabbage Steak is a must-try dish, large but surprisingly easy to finish. The Grilled Fresh Squid was not like the typical grilled squid, but it had a rich flavor. The combination of Smoked Cheese and Mascarpone Cheese was a first for me, and it was a perfect match. The Salsiccia Cacio e Pepe was a spaghetti dish finished with black pepper and cheese, with a strong cheese flavor and deep taste of sausage. This restaurant is a convenient find in the Sapporo Station area where Italian options are limited, and it stays open late. Thank you for the meal.

This is the last stop of the day. It's the third bar for a casual drink. I decided to try a tasting flight of three different wines. I randomly chose: - Gewurztraminer - Souma Pinot Noir - P.V. Blend They actually gave us a platter with 6 different kinds of appetizers instead of the advertised 5! The crab miso cream cheese was so delicious, I wanted to keep eating more of it! We also tried a sparkling wine from Hokkaido, which had an orange hue and was very easy to drink. We also ordered a platter of three different types of ham. The one from Spain with white mold on the outside was surprisingly tasty, despite my initial reservations about its appearance. Overall, we had a great time enjoying the wine and ham platters!

Satsueki٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و I had a pre-drink by myself in this area before the first party! I went to Yoinokuchi, where I hadn't been since it moved. It's connected to Namara Yoshi, just like before. Namara Yoshi was really crowded, so I chose Yoinokuchi where there were a few empty seats. I sat at the counter and ordered a drink, a Hokkaido sparkling wine for 880 yen. It was Yamadado Niagara Sparkling '21 that day - delicious! It was perfect for sipping alone! Since I didn't have much time, I only ordered one dish - the baked gorgonzola with edamame for 700 yen. It was so delicious! A great appetizer! There were many other tempting dishes, but I had a time limit. This restaurant chain never disappoints. The prices are not cheap, but the satisfaction level is high! With the cover charge, the bill came to around 2000 yen. Thank you for the meal!

This is my second visit. I arrived with the intention of having a light meal as lunch was late. Caesar salad with chicken ham and broccoli: 880 yen, not too rich Caesar salad. The chicken ham is delicious. Surprisingly, it has a good portion. Cabbage steak: 680 yen, the cabbage and the ham sandwiched in between are delicious. Ham assortment: 980 yen, a set of Jamon Serrano, Sapporo Craft Ham, and Fue. They are all delicious without being overpowering. Salsiccia pasta: Price forgotten. The noodles are cooked al dente, and the sauce is perfectly mixed, delicious. The salsiccia is also tasty. This restaurant not only offers great wine pairing options but also serves a proper dinner. Thank you for the meal.

I visited a shop that had moved from Sapporo Station for the first time. It's a shop I like because they have various types of Japanese sake. I ended up spending a lot because I wanted to try different kinds of sake. The photo shows the saba (mackerel) and kiwi appetizer. It was an interesting combination that surprisingly went well together and I liked it.

This shop is located on the first floor of a building across the street to the south after exiting from the east side exit of Bic Camera next to Sapporo Station. It was my first visit here. I had been very curious about this place as many of my friends had been here before the relocation. This time, I saw the name of this place on Sapporo City's crowdfunding list, so I decided to sign up. "Budohi Yoinokuchi" focuses on wine, while its sister shop "Sakanayoroshi Namarayoshi," connected through an internal passage, focuses on sake. - Pork shank confit lunch (1480 yen) A large bone-in meat was served, which was surprising. Considering this, I think the price is quite reasonable. Mashed potatoes, carrots, and turnips (I think...) were served as sides. However, the menu mentions "3 types of mustard," but the amount of mustard served was very small, so it felt a bit lacking. I wish they had provided a more generous amount as stated in the menu. You can also have bread (baguette) instead of rice. The soup was a bit salty, so I diluted it with hot water before drinking. I would have loved to enjoy wine with the meal, but unfortunately, I wasn't feeling well at the time, so I passed this time. I look forward to enjoying wine on my next visit here. Thank you for the meal. [Sapporo City's Crowdfunding] By specifying a restaurant you want to support and depositing 1000 yen per share, the city will provide a subsidy of 300 yen, making it a total of 1300 yen prepaid to the restaurant. If you visit the store within the specified period, you can use the 1300 yen meal voucher.

Just opened shop! Sister store of Atelier across the street. The main dish is oden, but everything else is delicious too!! Great value for the price!! Especially the lunch-only set from 11am to 5pm, which includes a selection of appetizers and 3 glasses of wine, is a great deal!! The chef seems to have a French background, but the Japanese cuisine is also fantastic!! I hope this restaurant will last for a long time!

Yoinokuchi store name, tangled up... but it seems like you don't need to remember it. I came to Sapporo with my grandchild, thinking to myself, "Why did I walk all the way here to this kind of store?" It's my grandchild's birthday, but the celebration will be tomorrow. Today, I will stay at the house of the grandchild from the other side of the family to be fair, so I have to stay for two nights. Even though it's a bit early, I will go out with my eldest daughter's child to buy a Christmas present. I had told them to pick a present for me this time since I was made to buy Montbell ski wear the other day, but in the end, the gloves cost over 20,000 yen. It will probably be cheaper than the gloves, but I have to be prepared to spend around 15,000 yen. As a retired father, I can't take it anymore. So, I will go out with my grandchild to buy gloves, and in return, they have to accompany me for a drink at lunch. We will go to a facility that I found out about from a review by Blue the other day. After that, we will meet up with my grandchild's father, so for now, we will head towards "Yoinokuchi." I'm directionally challenged, so I was surprised that I found it quite easily. It's a wonderful atmosphere inside the store. A woman came out and asked, "What can I help you with?" I had my eyes on something, so I said, "For now, I'll go with this," referring to wine. Wine, right? So, I ordered wine, but it seems they also had beer. It's not crowded yet, probably because it's still early. There were probably two male staff and one female staff. Is the amount of wine too little? I don't want a lot, but this is quite disappointing. The taste is not bad, and it's not too heavy, but the more I sip, the more I want. I ordered Gorgonzola, which seemed like it would go well with wine. "What is this?" "It's cheese, but it's not something a child would eat, so don't eat it." "I'll try half of it." "Just take a piece." I ended up eating half of it. I didn't know. "It's delicious." That's a lie. I ate another slice. "It's delicious." Then, "It's not good." Of course it isn't. What a waste. I only had two slices for myself. The Gorgonzola was delicious. The "Cheese and Prosciutto Salad" was all very adult-like, eating only sophisticated things. Well, it's just a normal salad. There was only a little prosciutto, and my grandchild ate most of it, so it was a lonely salad. The Zangi was big but just a very ordinary Zangi. There's no complaint about that, but since it's a wine store, maybe that's all there is. There's no juiciness. The husband arrived. I found out they had beer and ordered one, and it came in a Premium glass. It's delicious, but still expensive. Oh? The male staff increased to three. Is business picking up? The female staff is friendly, but the male staff... not so much. I felt the same way at the neighboring store. It's a stylish place, but kind of mediocre. I guess it was only good at the beginning.

First visit since they moved. The wine set lineup remains unchanged, providing a sense of stability and reassurance. The interior of the restaurant is lovely with wooden décor. We ordered the following: - Daytime wine set for 1980 yen, which includes a tasting of 3 wines, one drink, and a selection of 5 wine-friendly appetizers. - Colinky's gratin for 480 yen - Small turnip sautéed with tabunard sauce for 680 yen - Otoshi for 450 yen The wines included: - White: Viognier, dry, the third lightest - Red: Burgundy Rouge, the second lightest - Red: Anjou Le Roc, medium-light All 5 wine-friendly appetizers paired perfectly with the wines and were to my liking. The food was delicious and served in small portions, which was perfect. With 3 glasses of wine, I wished for a bit more food. Colinky, which is pumpkin, was cut right in front of us in the kitchen behind the counter. It was a delight to watch them prepare it while enjoying our wine. The texture of the Colinky was excellent. The turnip sauté with balsamic sauce was also fantastic. The visual presentation of the dishes was delightful. This is a great place to enjoy wine and appetizers. It's perfect for a relaxing time alone, especially in the early hours. It was a wonderful experience.

Hello everyone, Sapporo Station South Exit is a place I frequent because my favorite dentist and beauty salon are located there. I was happy when "Budou Biyori Yoi no Kuchi" moved from Paseo to this area. I decided to visit at around 2:00 pm. When I entered, there was a lively female party going on at a table and a lady enjoying wine alone at the counter. I was seated at the counter and ordered the A set for 2,980 yen, which allows you to compare six different wines during Happy Hour until 5:00 pm. Since beer was not included, I chose Jack Daniel's soda mix. For food, I ordered the lunch special of pork confit for 1,480 yen. I tried three different white wines, and my favorite was the fruity French Sud-Ouest. The salad and seafood soup that came with the lunch were also delicious. The pork confit was unexpectedly large and tasty, especially when paired with mustard. The bread was also delicious. I enjoyed the remaining three wines, including the red Campbell from Fujino and the Viognier. It was a peaceful afternoon, but suddenly the atmosphere changed when the boss of the restaurant started speaking loudly near the entrance. Despite the noise, I still had a relaxing time enjoying my wine. Thank you for the meal!

We went with two people, had 2-3 drinks, and it cost 10,600 yen! It turned out to be more expensive than expected. Maybe we ordered too many snacks? Haha. The recommended points are that you can enjoy various types of delicious wines by the glass, and each dish has its own unique quality and commitment. It's recommended for dates or for dining alone. If you want to enjoy a slightly stylish meal, I recommend it! Thank you for the meal! (*´ー｀*)

"Yoinokuchi" and "Namarayoshi" used to be located in Sapporo Paseo, but they moved to a new location before Paseo closed down. They are now situated on the south side of Sapporo Esta, across the street, on the first floor of the Kitaco Trade Building. Just like when they were in Paseo, the two shops are connected inside, and you can enter from either side. Until 5 pm, they offer three types of "Day Drinking WINE SET" which allow you to enjoy wine and appetizers at a reasonable price. I ordered the "Day Drinking WINE SET B" (1,900 yen) which includes a tasting of three wines, one drink from the menu with a star, and a platter of five wine-friendly appetizers. The first drink was the "Sparkling Larz Spumante." The platter included "Salmon Carpaccio," "Venison Terrine," "Roast Beef," "Cream Cheese and Dried Figs," and "Cake Salé," all of which were delicious. I also ordered the "Heshiko Butter" (380 yen), which was a tasty combination of heshiko, butter, and green onions on bread. The wines I chose were on the pricier side, such as "Takizawa Winery Muratourgau," "Burgundy Rouge," and "Domaine Yui." The atmosphere was lively, and the food and wine were enjoyable. It's a great place to casually enjoy delicious wine and appetizers!"

Due to the extension of the Hokkaido Shinkansen, PASEO has been relocated. I visited after watching "She is Amber" at Cinema Frontier. Personally, I find it more convenient to visit than the previous store. The transfer to the sister store feels the same as before. Appetizer: Prosciutto and persimmon. I felt that persimmon was better than melon with prosciutto. Jamon Serrano: 380 yen. The cost performance at this price is amazing, it's delicious. Cabbage steak: 680 yen. Ground meat is sandwiched between cabbage leaves, giving a strong steak-like feeling. Grilled Salsiccia: 380 yen. This is also a reasonable price. The salsiccia is meaty and delicious. Grilled tuna belly with herbs: 680 yen. It goes well with the accompanying herbs. Hokkaido pork spare ribs teppanyaki with balsamic sauce: 860 yen. The spare ribs have a lot of meat. I ended up gnawing on the bones. I feel that it has become more reasonable than during the PASEO era. Thank you for the meal.

Visited for lunch on Saturday. Ordered the recommended pork shank confit. The lunch set comes with salad, soup, and choice of rice or bread, all for 1300 yen which is a great deal! The portion size is generous with plenty of meat, although the amount of fat is quite high so be careful of indigestion. The flavor is not as strong as expected, so bread might be a better choice than rice. Overall, good value for the price.

Located at 2-1-2 Kita Court Building 1F, North 4 West, Chuo-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido, this wine bar is situated on the south side of "ESTA," which is directly connected to JR Sapporo Station. It is easily accessible from subway Sapporo Station's 19th exit, just outside the building. The restaurant used to be in JR Sapporo Station's "PASEO," but it has now relocated to this new location along with another shop, creating a connected space where customers can move between the two establishments. The interior remains similar to its previous location, with a large wine cellar at the entrance. The layout includes counter seats in front of the kitchen and work area, with table seating in the back. The counter seats may feel a bit cramped. On this visit, I went with a fellow reviewer. We enjoyed French wines, including a Languedoc Chardonnay and a Bordeaux Chateau de Franc, along with light dishes like pickled mackerel and kiwi, and a wine pairing platter with a variety of tasty items. The fig butter, octopus head, and pate de campagne were particularly delicious. After finishing up here, we moved next door to Sakanamiyori Namarayoshi for more culinary delights.

I arrived without getting wet through the underground street connected to the rain. When I entered the sake corner, I said, "I want to drink wine." I enjoyed two rounds of tasting Hokkaido wines and a platter of assorted snacks.

I stayed at ANA Crown Plaza and decided to use this restaurant as my second choice. I ordered a tasting set of Hokkaido wines and a platter of appetizers. The food was stylish and the wine was delicious.
