Revisited ♡ February 2015 Today was a holiday, so when I arrived around 2:30 pm, the restaurant was full! But I only had to wait a bit before I could get a table. Today, I ordered the Coconut Soup Bone Chicken Curry. The soup was rich and delicious as always. I hope they bring back the Lamb Soup Curry that they used to have. It was a unique menu item that I used to come here specifically for. Please bring it back! January 2015 I have been to this restaurant a few times before. You can find it by going downstairs. The interior is not very spacious, but I like the atmosphere. Among soup curry restaurants, I think Hirihiri is on the spicier side. That's why I really like this place! When I visited after a long time, I noticed that the menu had changed. I ordered the Coconut Soup Vegetable Curry. They are willing to change the vegetables to ones you prefer, which is great. I love the rich soup here.

I came to Odori. I have visited Hiri Hiri near Sapporo Station several times, but there is a shop here in Odori. I entered the shop just after it opened, and there were about two groups of customers ahead of me. Some delivery workers came to pick up curry. I sat at the counter seat and ordered the most popular "Bone Chicken Curry" with normal rice and spiciness level 3. The price was very reasonable at 1100 yen including tax. The dish was ready in about 5 minutes, surprisingly fast. The soup had sesame seeds and was spicy, with a hint of heat. It had lots of broccoli, lightly seared on the surface, giving it a delicious aroma. There were also sweet and soft sweet potato gnocchi-like pieces, making it a very well-balanced soup curry. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

At lunchtime, there was a long line at Suage Plus and Garaku. I didn't have time to wait in line, but I really wanted to eat soup curry in Sapporo. As I wandered around, I found Hilihili. I was able to enter without waiting. I ordered G Frank, spiciness level 3 with coconut. It was quite spicy, making me sweat. Personally, I prefer Suage Plus, but being able to enter without waiting is a big plus.

Today, I finally came to the Spicy Curry restaurant that I've been wanting to try - the Hirihiri Odori branch. Last time, I visited the 2nd branch under the Sapporo Station overpass and was left speechless by how delicious it was. I just had to come back for more, so this time I visited the Odori branch. I ordered the same Garlic Shrimp Vegetable Curry and Bone Chicken Curry with a spice level of 4, and added lotus root as a topping with a coupon. The name of the restaurant is spot on as my lips are tingling a bit, but it's still delicious. The shrimp is irresistible. However, the vegetables were deep-fried a bit too much, so the texture of my favorite lotus root and broccoli was not quite right. That was a bit disappointing. Next time, I think I'll go back to the 2nd branch.

I entered the restaurant after 8:00 PM on a regular day. It was almost full, and more customers kept coming in, making it a bustling place. When I arrived, there were no seats available at the counter, so I was led to a table for four people (I felt bad for the people waiting). The restaurant had a small layout with four tables for four people each and four counter seats. I ordered the Bone Chicken Curry for 1200 yen and used a coupon from Tabelog to add extra seaweed topping (worth 150 yen). After waiting for about 10 minutes, the curry arrived. The soup was rich and not too much. The spiciness level 3 was just right. The chicken was tender and easy to cut with a spoon. The curry also had mashed potatoes, which were delicious. The broccoli in the soup curry (probably fried) was surprisingly tasty. The restaurant is conveniently located near Odori Station, and if you feel like trying something else, there are other dining options on the same floor. Overall, it was a satisfying meal!

I wanted to try authentic soup curry in Hokkaido, so I visited this place where you can choose the level of spiciness, making it safe for children too. There were various options like pork belly, hamburger, and the classic bone-in chicken. I decided to go with the chicken, which seemed like the popular choice. I chose the normal level of spiciness. When it was served, I thought I made the right choice with the chicken as the soup curry looked delicious. The taste was also great, with just the right amount of spiciness that paired well with the rice, and the fried vegetables on top added to the overall deliciousness.

I had a good memory of the last visit, and although I hadn't revisited for a while, I finally went back with a friend's invitation. This time, I tried the kimma natto curry with a spice level of 5. The portion of ingredients was not as big as shown in the picture, which was a bit disappointing, but the flavor was amazing! The thickness and spiciness were just to my liking. They also have a coupon on Tabelog, so it's a good deal. The spice level of 5 was just right for me, so I wouldn't mind paying extra for it.

Today, I decided to have curry. And not just any curry, but soup curry! So I went to "Soup Curry Hiri Hiri Odori" and tried their most popular dish, the "Bone Chicken Curry" with a topping of "Baranori" using a coupon. It was delicious and I ended up needing extra rice because it was so good. The chicken leg was so tender that it fell apart easily. The atmosphere of the restaurant was also great, making the whole experience even better.

I visited the restaurant after reading reviews. It was empty when I arrived early, which made me a bit worried, but the food was delicious with a good amount of spice. You can choose the level of spiciness, and even the mild option had a nice kick to it. I personally like it spicier, but those who are sensitive to spice might find even level 1 too hot. The vegetable curry was full of vegetables, while the chicken curry tasted similar to the vegetable curry, so I preferred the vegetable curry.

Sapporo business trips get me excited. For an early lunch, I choose soup curry. The first time I tried soup curry was at Okushiba Shoten in Yaesu. I felt a bit unsure about it, so I decided to give it another try to confirm my feelings. Many places open at 11:30, but this restaurant opens at 11:00, which is convenient. Sapporo has a lot of eateries in the basements of mixed-use buildings, and this place is no exception. Across the street, there is a hamburger restaurant with a long line. It must be popular, but I stuck to my plan and had soup curry instead. I went in right after they opened, and yes, it was delicious. Undoubtedly delicious. However, I realized that soup curry might not be my thing. I prefer curry that is not in soup form. The result of my confirmation is in, but experience is important in everything. It's still delicious, so it's just a matter of personal preference. The place filled up quickly, showing that soup curry is a soul food for the people of Sapporo. Thank you for the meal.

When I tried to go to Garaku, there was a waitlist of 97 groups, maybe because of Golden Week, so I gave up and came here instead. Since I eat at Garaku in Tomamu, I'm okay with that. Now, I tried the basic chicken curry with less rice and a spiciness level of 4. For some reason, I impulsively added sausages as a topping, but I regret not choosing pork belly instead. The curry itself, including the ingredients, was delicious. The other soup curries were also decently tasty, but not outstanding. Unfortunately, the dish had a lingering scent of insufficient cleaning from the dishwasher. I hope they pay more attention to cleaning the dishes properly. Thank you for the meal!

I walked around watching the snow festival in the morning and started to feel hungry. So, I decided to head to a soup curry restaurant that I had looked up before. The name "hirihiri" made me think it would be very spicy. Our group this time included one person who couldn't handle medium spicy, one person who was okay with medium spicy, and me who was fine with very spicy. I was curious about the beef tendon curry, so I ordered that. I decided to skip alcohol this time since I drank a lot last night (lol). Most of the curries I usually eat are thick and creamy. Eating soup curry, especially in Sapporo, was a new experience for me. I wondered when soup curry became popular. While pondering these thoughts, my curry arrived. It was filled with tofu, lotus root, watercress, broccoli, and other vegetables. The appearance was pretty similar for all of us. The spiciness wasn't too intense. Surprisingly, the mild one tasted spicier when I compared it. (^_^;) I could taste the richness of the spices. It was a delicious meal.

When it comes to Sapporo, you can't miss out on soup curry! The soup curry in Hokkaido is overwhelmingly different from soup curry in other regions, especially in terms of the deliciousness of the vegetables. The soup curry here is also incredibly delicious! The vegetables are not just delicious, but extremely delicious! In particular, the fried broccoli may have been the most delicious broccoli I've ever had. The crab curry had a rich flavor with a strong crab broth, which was a pleasant surprise. Despite the blizzard outside and the cold weather, this spicy soup curry was a delightful treat. I have only been to this place and SAMURAI in Sapporo so far, so I hope to take my time and gradually visit various restaurants in the future.

I am not used to soup curry, but I was able to enjoy it. I think I ordered the most popular chicken curry, which was delicious with tender chicken. You can choose the level of spiciness, and I chose level 3, which made me almost cry, so next time I will choose level 2. It was a good learning experience. Soup curry is delicious.

I planned to go to a certain restaurant but gave up due to the long line. I searched nearby and found this shop, which I knew the name of, so I decided to stop by. The soup was quite orthodox but had a nice spicy kick to it, which I liked. Even though the rice portion was normal, it was quite filling, especially with the toppings. I left feeling satisfied and full. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal! ♫

On the 4th day of my business trip in Sapporo, feeling tired from three consecutive nights of heavy drinking, I decided to give my tired organs a shock therapy by visiting the restaurant called "Hihihi Odori" for their soup curry. The restaurant is located at Minami 1-jo Nishi 2-chome, just a 2-minute walk from Odori Station. It is on the same floor as the popular hamburger restaurant Toshi-san. Hihihi is a soup curry restaurant that also has a shop near Sapporo Station. I arrived at 11:00, which was the opening time, giving me the flexibility in my schedule. The interior of the restaurant was clean and had a cozy atmosphere. There were about 20 seats at the counter and tables, with two groups of customers already seated when I arrived. I sat at the counter alone. The table was set with spoons, forks, toothpicks, wet towels, tissue boxes, gum syrup, and a water pitcher, and I was served water after being seated. I ordered the Hamburger Curry for 1,380 yen, with a spice level of 5, a large serving of rice for an extra 100 yen, Okra as a topping (using a coupon from Tabelog), and Braised Pork for 400 yen, totaling 1,880 yen. As usual, I ordered two main dishes. The Hamburger Curry, exclusive to the Odori branch, was packed with juicy meat, while the Braised Pork was incredibly tender. The Okra topping and various vegetables added a nice touch. The soup had a perfect balance of umami and spiciness, just right with a spice level of 5. Soup curry after a night of heavy drinking never disappoints! The fact that they open at 11:00 and operate until 21:00 is very convenient. I highly recommend visiting Hihihi Odori at least once.

Soup Curry HIRI HIRI Hamburg Curry + Jumbo Frankfurter I haven't been feeling well for a while and have been worried about my appetite. I couldn't eat to my heart's content, and I hadn't been eating rice either. But today, I ate rice for the first time in a while, and the spices stimulated my appetite. I was able to eat heartily, which made me really happy. The soup curry was also incredibly delicious, and I left the lunch feeling completely satisfied. It's great to be able to eat a lot. My stomach is back to normal! #SoupCurry #SoupCurryLunch #SoupCurrySapporo #WantToConnectWithPeopleWhoLoveSoupCurry #SoupCurryHIRIHIRI2 #HamburgCurry

After receiving the vaccine, I visited the restaurant for some nutritional support. I was grateful that they were open for business throughout the day, even at four o'clock. I had the place all to myself, so I decided to splurge a bit in case of side effects. I ordered the limited Garlic Shrimp and Vegetable dish with a side of broccoli. I also used a coupon for an orange juice. It took about 10 minutes for the food to arrive. The aroma of the spices was delightful, and the dish was packed with vegetables. The garlic-infused shrimp was delicious, and the meal felt nutritious. The rice was also tasty and didn't get boring. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was calm, and I planned to enjoy my book until my next appointment. However, the staff were busy with tasks, orders, and chatting with each other, which was a bit disappointing. Without that, it would have been a great place to relax and enjoy lunch or reading. Despite that, the food was delicious, and I would definitely come back if I had the chance.

Arrived at the paint shop right after opening at 11 am. Was the first customer at 11:02 am. Only one person came in later. This was my second visit in 2 and a half years. "the SUN premium" has closed down and now there are only two shops. This time, I ordered the March monthly special, the "Numbing Mabo Pork Keema Curry" for 1380 yen with a spice level of 2 (similar to home curry spiciness). It arrived promptly. The staff quickly brought a separate dish of mashed potatoes that they had forgotten to include (laughs). At first, I didn't feel much "numbness" from the Mabo, but it gradually kicked in along with the scent of Sichuan peppercorns. Spice level 2 is just right for those who prefer medium spiciness. My lips tingled after eating, but I couldn't tell if it was numbness or spice (laughs). The Mabo included tofu, eggplant, and minced pork, all of which tasted great. Once again, I was satisfied with the deliciousness. It's nice that you can actually smell the Sichuan peppercorns. It will be ending soon, so if you're interested, hurry up! I will definitely come back again!

March's monthly curry was a minced meat, tofu, and fried eggplant dish with a mapo tofu-like flavor, number 6. The rice was normal and had a taste that would appeal to everyone. It was easy to eat and delicious. While eating, I didn't feel any spiciness, but afterwards my tongue started to tingle, hirihiri! I tried 2 garlic shrimp, which were shared with me, and they were tasty. The soup tasted similar to the Maruchan soup curry that I usually eat.

I have been to this restaurant several times in the past, and I tried their seasonal menu item, Mapo Tofu Curry. It was delicious with the addition of oysters, but I found it difficult to distinguish between soup curry and mapo tofu. It was honestly tasty, but it felt more like a curry with mapo tofu flavor rather than a true mapo tofu dish.

It was quite crowded during lunchtime on the weekend. It seems like more people are going out, including myself. I ordered the bone-in chicken with extra vegetables, spiciness level 8. They recommended not making it too spicy, but I prefer it a bit more stimulating. I'll go for that next time. The tomato-based soup was light and easy to eat, with minimal spice. The chicken had a nice crispy exterior, and the mashed potatoes had a subtle kick. Thank you for the meal! (╹◡╹)
