I was able to go on a business trip. The owner lady is amazing. The atmosphere is like being at a hometown in the countryside. The food is delicious and I want to go to this restaurant again.

This was my second time using this restaurant, and it has a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel at home. Both times I used it for a party, and it's just so cheap and delicious! The all-you-can-drink option is only 1,500 yen per person (90 minutes), and you can choose dishes starting from 1,500 yen with increments of 500 yen. The first time, I felt satisfied with the 1,500 yen dish, but this time, since there were many young members, I thought it would be better to have a bit more, so I chose a 2,000 yen dish. Even with the all-you-can-drink, it only came to 3,500 yen per person, which is really affordable (the photo shows just a part of the dishes, there's more coming). The female owner of the restaurant is hearty, funny, and has a great sense of service, making conversations really enjoyable. Even if you're not good at talking, you can feel comfortable talking to her. The atmosphere was great because of the good restaurant and the good company, and the party was lively. We even extended the all-you-can-drink for an additional 30 minutes for only 500 yen, which is also very cheap! If you prefer having a fun and lively time with friends rather than a fancy restaurant, I highly recommend this place. If I have the chance, I would definitely choose this restaurant again.

I ordered a takeout of hors d'oeuvres and two bento boxes on the night of June 2nd. The bento boxes were colorful, with large portions of fish and meat, and plenty of rice. I forgot to tell my mom that I was going to have it for lunch the next day, so she had cooked fresh rice for me, but I ended up having the bento instead. It was only 400 yen, but the content was more than enough. I was happy and satisfied to have my mom's cooking for lunch on a workday. I will definitely order hors d'oeuvres and bento boxes again. The bento boxes come in medium size for 400 yen, large size for 500 yen, and side dishes only for 300 yen. Rice balls are 100 yen each. Hors d'oeuvres range from 2000 yen. Reservations are required by the day before. Operating hours are 5am-7am for morning, 11am-12pm for lunch, and 6pm-8pm for evening. Alcohol is not served for dine-in from 6pm-8pm. Bento boxes and hors d'oeuvres are chef's choice, but they can accommodate preferences or dislikes if informed in advance. Can't wait for the end of the pandemic so I can enjoy some drinks and my mom's cooking.

I used to live in Chitose. Due to my parents' job transfers, I have lived in various places in Hokkaido. I still go to a hair salon in Chitose. When I lived there, the owner, who is like a mother figure, always took good care of me. She loves people and loves to take care of them, and her salon reflects that. Today, I had my hair done at the salon. This place used to be an izakaya, but now they offer takeout options like onigiri in the morning, bento for lunch, and appetizers or bento for dinner. They are very accommodating to requests. I ordered appetizers and bentos for tomorrow's lunch for myself and someone special. It's comforting to know that I can enjoy the owner's cooking for lunch. How does she even have time to sleep with all this cooking! Today was the first time I tried their takeout, and I was impressed. The appetizers were perfect for enjoying with some drinks, especially the freshly caught fish from Lake Shikotsu. The owner even included her famous fried chicken, which was delicious. The bento also had shrimp tempura, simmered taro, and homemade spring rolls. It was all so tasty. I feel ready to tackle work tomorrow. Lake Shikotsu's fish is not too oily and goes well with drinks. And the fried chicken by the owner is just amazing! She also offers regular meals like rice bowls. I have to go back to Chitose next week for some errands, so I might order her food again.
