The atmosphere was a bit intimidating, but once I went in, a staff member came over as I was looking at the menu. I chose the stewed hamburger. It was delicious and served hot.

I visited this restaurant for the first time and left a slightly harsh comment, but in fact, I have been there several times. This is because their stewed hamburger is delicious. Also, the staff is very friendly. The stewed hamburger comes with a choice of two sauces, but I always go for the tomato cream sauce. It is served in a hot gratin dish with eggplant, lotus root, and broccoli, making it very colorful. The flavor is on the rich side, but as a dish to accompany rice, it's acceptable for dining out. I'm curious about their bento boxes.

The staff are friendly and attentive, creating a good impression. The prices are reasonable, but the portion sizes are not very large. The set meals with drinks and dessert offer good value. The stewed pork in the healthy lunch had a unique flavor with hints of yuzu, but it wasn't very strong. The meat was very tender and delicious. The variety of vegetables like lotus root, taro, snap peas, and eggplant was a nice touch. However, the seasoning was not to my taste - it was somewhat unclear if it was too light or too strong, with a sweet taste and less soy sauce flavor. The hamburger had a great meaty texture but was a bit salty. The Zangi curry was not very spicy and easy to eat. However, the Zangi portion was smaller than expected. The Zangi itself was average. The restaurant is located within a sports club, making it convenient for club members, but for dining purposes alone, it may feel more like a cafeteria or canteen.

I finally had the chance to visit this cafe restaurant located in a sports club in this area. The parking lot is spacious, so if there are spots available, you can park easily. As you enter through the door next to the sports club entrance, you'll see a stylish propeller spinning under a high ceiling, creating a chic cafe-like atmosphere with mostly female customers enjoying lunch - including club members, staff, and outside visitors. The background music playing is cool Western music. Since it was my first visit, I wanted to try their recommended "Beauty Health Lunch," but unfortunately, it was sold out. After careful consideration, I decided on the "Spicy Hamburger Curry Set (950 yen)" with an "Iced Coffee," which I ordered from a polite and energetic waitress who seemed like an instructor. They also offer protein drinks on the menu, reminding you that it's located in a fitness club. The salad that came first was fresh with a choice of Italian, non-oil, or sesame dressing. The curry arrived next, with a thick keema-like texture that seemed a bit overcooked due to the evaporation of water. Despite being a bit salty, the generous amount of meat chunks and chicken made it a satisfying meal. The hamburger was made with coarsely ground meat and had a good balance of salt and pepper, with a tasty marinade that would be a hit if served at home. Overall, the menu seemed more like a regular restaurant or cafe rather than a health-focused or diet-conscious one, which might explain the diverse customer base. It was a lovely restaurant with no strange quirks. Thank you for the meal.

I went to Ainomori. Wow!! Amazing amount of snow! I thought Sapporo's most snowfall was at Koganeyu, but this place is not far behind! We were looking for a place to have lunch with my wife and happened to discover this place. It can be seen from JR Gakuentoshi Line Ainomori Park Station. The parking lot is spacious and can be used by the sports club. The sports club and entrance are shared, but inside, they are separated between the sports club and the shop. You can enter the shop wearing shoes. The interior is bright with large windows. I looked at the menu. It's handwritten but easy to read. Mochi pork stew and root vegetable healthy lunch (900 yen) is what my wife chose. It seems to be the shop's recommended menu. A variety of side dishes with a balanced mix of vegetables and meat. And sixteen-grain rice! Soup and drink are included at this price, which is quite reasonable. My wife really liked it. I also tried a bit of the tender mochi pork stew, which was soft and perfectly seasoned. Spicy rich stewed curry (750 yen) with salad and drink. It was a long time since I had this kind of curry! It was delicious! It reminds me of that famous spicy curry. Made by simmering beef, it has a rich flavor. Despite being spicy, the umami flavor comes first. I think the balance is good. I must mention the quality of the salad that comes with the set, it's so good that you wouldn't believe it's part of a set. By the way, you can add this salad for an additional 100 yen. Waffles (strawberry & blueberry sauce) 350 yen Waffles (vanilla & chocolate sauce) 350 yen They were made fresh with each order. The strawberry ice cream and blueberry sauce had a fresh and refreshing taste, while the vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce had a rich flavor. The price was reasonable considering the size. It felt like a good deal. This shop, located in the Ainomori Park Station area in the northernmost part of Sapporo's Kita Ward, may be considered the northernmost restaurant in the area. Although it may not be easy to tell from the exterior, each dish is carefully crafted and presented with a lot of heart. They also offer protein drinks and other menu items typical of a restaurant attached to a sports club, but they are also very appealing as a convenient and delicious everyday dining spot. We enjoyed our meal once again. Thank you very much. We will visit again.
