When it gets hot, the symptoms worsen, it is a designated rare disease by the government. Unfortunately, there is still no medicine that suits me. If reviews and comments suddenly stop, please assume that I have been hospitalized again, as before. Even if I take a break for the third time, I still want to return to reviewing. Likes and comments may be delayed, but I plan to catch up once I return. [June 2020] This is my third review, so I'll keep it light. Hokkai Market is a reasonable market for the common people. There are six stores in Sapporo. Last year, they opened the "Hokkai Market Yamabashi Store" in Chuo Ward. It is a market that mainly offers fish, as well as meat, vegetables, and fruits at a good quality for a reasonable price. As far as I know, there are many individual fish that have not been processed in this market. In Sapporo, there are significantly more varieties of fish than in any department store's seafood section. Therefore, the market's sushi dishes made in-store are cheap and delicious. I once went to visit the seafood department of Sapporo Central Wholesale Market at the request of a certain food buyer from a department store, and I accidentally made eye contact with the manager of a certain store in Hokkai Market (sweat). I stood out because I was not wearing work clothes, a hat, or boots, but a suit and leather shoes, which led the Hokkai Market manager to realize who I was (laughs). At that time, I also learned that they directly source fresh fish from Sapporo Central Wholesale Market. When I visited the "Hokkai Market Kawazoi Store" after a long time, the interior felt slightly different from before. It reminded me of the "Hokkai Market Yamabashi Store." I bought a very cheap "limited quantity, Yubari melon." The melon's "stem" was a few days early for consumption, so I waited a few days before chilling and enjoying it. ■Limited Quantity, Yubari Melon Weight: Actual measurement 1200g (after removing the husk) It was slightly small, but it had a proper "stem" attached. It came with a "Yubari Melon seal" with the producer's name, ensuring its quality. It was very sweet and had a melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness. The sugar content was very high. Price: 646 yen (tax included) The "stem" of a "Yubari Melon" helps determine when it is ripe enough to eat. Therefore, if the stem is missing, the product's value significantly decreases, both in terms of appearance and quality. It also must have the "producer's name seal" attached, ensuring the quality of the "Yubari Melon." It lives up to the promised high quality. At 646 yen, this is truly a bottom price for this type of "Yubari Melon." Even the cashier was surprised at how cheap it was (laughs). I wonder what bottom-priced item I'll try next time. Thank you for the delicious meal.

When it gets hotter, the symptoms worsen, and it is a designated rare disease by the government. Unfortunately, there is no medication that suits me yet. If my reviews or comments suddenly stop, please assume that I have been hospitalized again, as in the previous time. Even if I take a third break, I still want to return as a reviewer. Likes and comments may be delayed, but I plan to catch up after my return. [June 2020] This is my second review, so I'll keep it light. Hokkai Market is a reasonable market for the common people. There are six stores in Sapporo. Last year, they opened the "Hokkai Market Yamabana Shop" in Chuo Ward. It is a market that mainly focuses on fish but also offers meat, vegetables, fruits, etc. at a reasonable price. As far as I know, there are many single fish that are not processed in this market. In Sapporo, it is overwhelmingly more than the seafood department of any department store. Therefore, the market's prepared sushi at the store is cheap and delicious. I once visited the seafood department of the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market at the request of Mr. Ito, a food buyer, and accidentally made eye contact with the manager of a certain store in Hokkai Market. (Sweat) I stood out because I was not in work clothes, a hat, and boots but in a suit and leather shoes, so the manager of Hokkai Market recognized me. (Laughs) At that time, I also learned that they directly source fresh fish at the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market. When I visited the "Hokkai Market Kawazoi Shop" after a long time, the interior felt slightly different from before. It felt similar to the "Hokkai Market Yamabana Shop." At "Hokkai Market," the "half-fried young chicken" is very affordable. This time, I decided to buy it. I also bought "fruit tomatoes" and "eggs." ■ Half-fried young chicken Weight: Measured value 431g (after removing the windbag) It is fried at the store with a thin seasoned coating. It is crispy and has a spicy taste of black pepper. The chicken inside is tender. Price: 430 yen (tax included) ■ Ibaraki Prefecture Fruit Tomatoes 1 pack, 4 pieces Sweet and flavorful taste Bought 3 packs Price: 1 pack 322 yen (tax included) ■ Eggs 1 pack, 10 pieces Limited to 1 pack per person Price: 106 yen (tax included) The "half-fried young chicken" costs 430 yen per pack including tax. It is the lowest price in Sapporo. Therefore, it is the fourth largest in size. Personally, I love the crispy coating. Even after reheating, the crispiness remains the same. It goes well with beer or shochu highball. Moreover, it is cheap and filling. It is from Brazil, but because it is cheap, there is no problem. Hokkai Market offers affordable items. Next time, I might go for fish or meat. It was delicious, thank you.-----------------------------------------------------------------------As of June 25, 2020 Reference: "Half-fried young chicken" from smallest to largest Aida Dining Daimaru Sapporo Store offers domestically produced half-fried chicken, not half-fried Bunkarella Joya offers domestically produced half-roasted chicken, not half-fried Hiro-chan's Sapporo Shiozangi Sumikawa Store, Minami Ward 288g, 810 yen [May 2020] Bibai Grilled Chicken, Deli Flame, Ario Sapporo Store 300g, 540 yen [October 2019] Hokkai Market Kawazoi Shop 318g, 322 yen [September 2014] S&S Livestock 318g~330g, 500 yen [~April 2015] Charcoal Izakaya Flame Kita 24-jo Store 322g, 500 yen [May 2020] New Naruto Marui Imai Sapporo Store 340g~350g, 980 yen Bibai Grilled Chicken, Deli Flame Higashi Hikari Store 340g, 540 yen [November 2019] Bibai Grilled Chicken, Deli Flame Max Valu Sumikawa Store 343g, 638 yen [June 2015] Half-fried young chicken Nanase 344g, 970 yen [December 2019] Otaru Naruto-ya Sapporo Teine Store 345g, 980 yen [May 2014] Otaru Naruto-ya Shin-Kotoni Store 348g, 980 yen [October 2014] Kapparu-ya Hassamu Store 349g, 410 yen [April 2015] Ichijo

In February 2018, I had a huge craving for chicken, so I thought about going to KFC, but then I remembered the cheap half-fried chicken, so I ended up going shopping. I bought a freshly fried half-chicken for 398 yen. It's so cheap! That's why it's imported. The surface is crispy from frying. It's coated with flour, probably cornstarch. The taste and juiciness vary by part, but the oil used for frying seems good because I didn't feel sick afterwards. I enjoyed it all by myself. Thank you for the meal!

Return to the home province. Huh, there was a review here!? I'm quite surprised. I visit this store every time I return home. Not for side dishes, but to buy fish for dinner. However, is it okay to write this kind of review? This time it's not about side dishes. But since I'm here, I thought I'd write about it. This store always has fresh and reasonably priced seafood, with a wide variety of options. It seems that locals and even people from far away come here to buy. The reason I don't go to fish stores in Sapporo every time I return home is because of this place. If I'm going to a mediocre store, it's much cheaper to buy and eat at home, so if I really want to eat fish, Hamagai is the best choice. Every time I return home, I have a fish-filled dinner here one or two times. This time, I bought one sculpin, a discounted sea bream, fresh oysters from Lake Saroma (for sashimi), icefish, fresh whitefish, and fresh pollock roe. I was also interested in pickled herring, frozen spot prawns, and other items, but I decided to have them sent to Nagano later. I had the store prepare the sculpin for me because it's a bit of a hassle. They also had redfish, but my mother prefers sculpin soup over redfish, so I chose sculpin. The reason I chose sculpin is because I wanted to make "sculpin liver salad." However, leaving the liver salad to my mother was a big mistake. She put a lot of vegetables in it and it turned into a salad with a strong liver taste, which was a big shock. Next year, I've decided to make it myself. I put liver, stomach, and some meat in it. I also add miso, sake, mirin, and green onions. I serve the daikon radish separately. The sculpin soup was delicious. It's even better the next day. It's made with kombu dashi, miso, daikon radish, carrots, tofu, and potatoes. The icefish namasu was a delicacy. It's sliced thin, with the skin and soft cartilage parts of the salmon head. It's a sweet and sour namasu. It's pickled in vinegar and tastes refreshing. I like it. I also like the salmon roe and salmon kidney pickles the best. The fresh whitefish... my mother wanted to try it. Oh, I can't eat this. It's quite bitter. I tried making tempura with it, but the bitterness remained. This is a product from outside the prefecture. I can't eat it raw. The fresh pollock roe... it doesn't look appetizing at all. I don't want to eat it. But don't judge by appearance. It's delicious. I like to simmer it. But at home, we often stir-fry cabbage and konjac with a sweet and savory sauce. We mix the eggs separately and add them to the dish. It goes well with rice and beer. Another store where I bought sake for dinner. I bought a sake called "Special Junmai Sake Mizuho no Shizuku" from Kobayashi Sake Brewery in Kurisawa-cho, Hokkaido. This sake is made from 100% Hokkaido-grown rice.

2016.11.29 With a driver - willing to carry your groceries - very kind person ^^ Vegetables are expensive, right? I will buy a half-fried dish! It is still warm and freshly fried. Today is the 29th (meat day) and the driver is talking to me politely. Oh, there is also "Tokachi Ayami Beef" thigh for yakiniku, 100g for 480 yen. The other day, "Tokachi Ayami Beef Kalbi" was grilled at a restaurant in Tokyo. In the fresh fish section, there was a sign saying "Saroma oysters, one for 50 yen", they were small but I bought 4 (4 is enough). Today is not a special day, but it seems like the dining table will be lively (sweat). The Saroma oysters were small but firm, and they were perfect for sake steaming. If you eat them at an izakaya, even if they are small, they might cost double. I ended up spending more than I had budgeted. Oh, that huge half-fried dish is still available at the store! I bought it again. What a surprise, this time there was 600g of it! I also bought sushi for 398 yen (excluding tax) with 10 pieces. Tuna, squid, octopus, flying fish roe, egg, boiled shrimp, conger eel, mackerel, salmon. It was simple but good! It was unexpectedly delicious! Next time, I will upgrade to the more expensive sushi (the special selection of fresh sushi). Even so, it will be under 1000 yen, but that day they were sold out. This store focuses on fresh fish and it's a favorite place to visit. Today, the flyer was in the mailbox. Went shopping in our own car (a compact car) with my husband. While looking at the fruits and vegetables, I headed to the prepared food section. "Half-fried chicken" for 480 yen (excluding tax). It was huge! When I picked it up, it was still warm and crispy. I chose the biggest one and when I weighed it at home, it was 550g. Big! Tasty! The flavor was mild and the skin was delicious. My husband and I had the half-fried chicken with rice and miso soup as a set, and enjoyed it with beer. While shopping, I found a bag of sliced new salmon in the freezer for 322 yen (including tax). I was satisfied with the collar part (it's as good as the head part, and salmon soup is also good). This market is interesting! Occasionally, I want to go to this market. Today, as a change of pace, I went to "Hokkai Market". My eyes were drawn to the prepared food corner. "Real snow crab croquette", 10 for 158 yen (including tax). 1 piece for 15.8 yen. Got it! It certainly had crab in it, but the deliciousness of the potato was overwhelming and I couldn't taste the crab. Please continue to entertain me with "now is the time to buy" as I am weak to it. I hadn't been shopping for a while (due to poor health) ... There were no main ingredients in the fridge - oh no! I told my husband, "Take me to Hokkai Market... If we don't go, dinner will be a disaster." We went to a different shopping center than usual, and my husband waited in the car as I shopped. It was a rainy day, so there were also "rainy day service" items. Today was ==========

In September 2014, I visited the Hokkai Ichiba Kawazoi store for the first time. I have visited the stores in Miyanomori in Chuo Ward and Nishimachi in Nishi Ward before. Especially the Hokkai Ichiba Miyanomori store, along with the Lucky Yamate store, is a place I often go to. These two stores are symmetrical in nature. The Hokkai Ichiba Miyanomori store is a budget-friendly market, while the Lucky Yamate store is a high-end supermarket. The Hokkai Ichiba Kawazoi store is located along the road connecting Sapporo City and Jozankei Onsen. I stopped by the store on my way back from Jozankei Onsen. This store is in the Kawazoi area of Minami Ward in Sapporo, along Route 230 Ishiyama Street. For the exact location of the store, please check on Tabelog. I parked my car in the parking space in front of the store. Hokkai Ichiba is a budget-friendly market overall, with affordable products. Both the Hokkai Ichiba Miyanomori store and the Nishimachi store focus on seafood. They have a wide variety of single fish items, more than any department store in Sapporo. This is why the market's prepared sushi dishes are both affordable and delicious. Since it was my first time at the Kawazoi store, I checked out the salad section before looking at the seafood and sushi corner. Since I didn't plan to stop by, I didn't bring a cooler bag. I only bought a small amount of items. I bought items with a high cost-performance ratio and brought them home. The "Special Selection Fresh Sushi 10 pieces" is a seafood market's prepared sushi. The ingredients are quite large. The tuna and other items are delicious. The freshness is excellent. For 843 yen, the content is quite good. The "Salmon Roe Salmon" was a good deal on a rainy day. The quality of the roe was good for the price. I separated it at home and marinated it in soy sauce. The "Fried Half Chicken" was measured at 318 grams. It was fried at the store and has a thin coating. The taste is not bad. It's slightly small in size. The price is 322 yen, which seems like a great deal. I hope the Miyanomori store will also offer good deals on rainy days. A companion made "Soy Sauce Marinated Salmon Roe" at home. It's best served over warm white rice. Of course, it also goes well with sake. The "Fried Half Chicken" seems like the best deal in terms of price. It may not have an exceptional taste, but at 322 yen for a half chicken, it's very satisfying. Hokkai Ichiba is known for its affordable items. I look forward to stopping by again on my next trip back from Jozankei Onsen. Delicious, thank you for the meal.
