This is the last two weeks of the Sapporo Racecourse in Sapporo, and as usual, I haven't bought any betting tickets. I've been trying to predict some races, but with no good results. You can't make a fortune through gambling. The fourth floor of the racecourse is a floor only accessible to important people, with a shop selling expensive bento boxes from the Sapporo Grand Hotel. I couldn't buy a bento box, so I ordered soft serve ice cream from a pretty lady, paid for it, and received it within seconds. There is a staff member next to the shop, preventing entry further inside. Looking down from the window near the eye clinic, you can see the panoramic view of the paddock. The "Soft Serve Ice Cream @ 350 yen" is mildly sweet and deliciously smooth, giving a sense of luxury despite being the same price as elsewhere. "Someday, I'll become a horse owner..." Dreaming a distant dream again. Thank you for the meal. I will go to the Sapporo Racecourse for the last time this season with my grandchild.

At the Sapporo Racecourse!! It's the final day. Every time, I order this soft serve ice cream in a cup. It's a reasonable 300 yen bet, and even if I lose, I have nothing left, but this soft serve ice cream will remain delicious!! This soft serve ice cream is light and tasty, perfect for making race predictions. Thank you for the treat.

The restaurant serves expensive frozen food. The staff costs must be high. The portion is small, so I recommend a food truck instead.

【Second Post】I went to buy early this time since it was my second post, and there was a bento available. There were four types ranging from 2000 yen to 1000 yen. I chose the "Kani Meshi Makunouchi Bento" from the four types. Kani Meshi Makunouchi Bento: - Tempura shrimp - Kiss simmered dish - Simmered tofu, Noboribetsu roll, shrimp, scallop, shiitake mushroom, pumpkin, bamboo shoot, snow peas, simmered hijiki seaweed - Croquette - Tamagoyaki - Carrot and parsley kamaboko - Parsley, cherry tomato, lettuce salad - Kuki Wakame, crab and Shibazuke - Kani Meshi (crab rice), crab, Kinshi tamago, shiitake mushroom, edamame Price: 1200 yen (including 8% consumption tax) The "Kani Meshi Makunouchi Bento" is indeed a bento from the top-class hotel in Sapporo, the Sapporo Grand Hotel. Each dish has a solid taste. Even at 1200 yen, the taste is satisfying. I raised my rating from 3.8 to 4.0. 【First Post】I tried the Sapporo Grand Hotel's Sapporo Racecourse limited edition "Ouma Sabure" before. The Sapporo Grand Hotel shop is located on the 4th floor stand for horse owners and VIP guests. Last year, Sapporo Racecourse was closed for renovation. On the opening day, I arrived at the racecourse around noon. There were only two dining options, and the lines were long. I decided to wait at the Sapporo Grand Hotel restaurant. I also visited the newly opened "Sapporo Grand Hotel Shop" on the 4th floor. This shop is located in the Kuwazon area of Chuo-ku, Sapporo. It offers bento boxes priced above 1000 yen, suitable for the 4th-floor atmosphere. Unfortunately, all bentos were sold out. I bought the Sapporo Grand Hotel's limited edition "Ouma Sabure" instead. Ouma Sabure: - Sapporo Grand Hotel made - Sapporo Racecourse limited edition - Horse-shaped Sabure cookies - 5 pieces in a box - Butter-flavored Sabure with a crispy texture Price: 1000 yen (including 8% consumption tax) The "Ouma Sabure" is a delicious cookie with a strong butter flavor, typical of the Sapporo Grand Hotel. It's a high-quality treat suitable for personal consumption or as a souvenir. It adds to the fun memory of visiting Sapporo Racecourse.
