My elderly parents asked me and my wife to run an errand for them. First stop was at this Sazae-san store. Apparently my mother loves ohagi and my father is a big fan of donuts. I tried to take a photo of the purchase but couldn't find it? Where did it go? Oh well, we ended up eating it before we got home? (^^; An donuts for 324 yen, Tokachi ohagi with red bean paste for 324 yen. Thanks for the delicious meal! (^^)v

I'm in Yoichi following the route chosen by my wife, and next stop is AEON. I was surprised to find an AEON in Yoichi. It's not a big one, but decent enough. The fourth stop is Sazae. As soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted to have inari sushi today. I also want to have futomaki, so I'll go to Juroku. I know, I sound like I know a lot, but I only learned about Juroku from Tabelog. The inari sushi was a complimentary item, but I would get tired of just that, so I'll finish it all today. I'll share some with my wife, but we won't be able to finish it all. As always, the futomaki at Sazae is delicious. The flavor is perfect, but there's cucumber in it, which requires extra effort to remove. The cucumber flavor spreads to the surroundings, so I need to use air freshener too. That's the only thing that needs improvement. The inari sushi has an exquisite flavor, right? It's so tasty. Sazae never disappoints.

I had some errands to run at AEON Yoichi store and as I was about to leave, I spotted some sazae (turban shell) snacks. I couldn't resist the temptation and ended up buying the Tokachi Daimyo oyaki with sweet bean filling. It cost 108 yen including tax. It had been so long since I last had sazae snacks. The nostalgic sweetness of it was just what I liked. I tried to remember when was the last time I had it, but couldn't recall. However, the taste was unforgettable. I wonder when I'll get to have it again...

Welcome! In the back of Yoichi Station in Yoichi Town, Yoichi District, inside the Aeon Yoichi store, you can find the familiar series of Ohagi and Onigiri. I wonder when I will go outside Hokkaido~ Hello, everyone! The shop run by Kasa-san is always calling out in front of the store, but they don't do it much here. So, it's nice to be able to eat bento and onigiri while looking carefully. Thanks to the influence of Massan, I realized during this trip that there are many tourists! They also offer Ohagi as a novelty here. They politely call it "Gyudon" without saying "Gyudon", but it's not called "Gyumeshi", "Don", or "Kake Gohan". The fast food Gyudon looks different from the visual. It looks rich, but when you actually pick it up, the amount of meat is not enough. The gentle sweet and salty flavor mixes well with the meat, and the rice goes well with it. It has a good chewy texture and the onions are good. However, I don't feel the Sazae rice much, so I think the Sazae rice is best in the form of onigiri. The tamagoyaki has a common taste, and it ends with Shibazuke. Maybe because of the Sazae, there is a little sense of luxury, but still, it's a bit expensive to be over 500 yen... I also tried the Massan-yaki. Crunch! It's a custard Ohagi with apples, typical of Yoichi. The sweetness of the apples is abundant, but the sweetness of the custard is strong. It's better to increase the amount of apples for this. Thank you for the meal.
