Day 6 (Feb 2) - Lazy Day

Location: Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan
Weather: -5 deg (maybe)
Author: Amy


Hi all! The Day 6 post will be short and sweet! Like what we did. We woke up late, played around in the hotel room the entire time. Went out for ramen in Ramen Yokocho (Ramen St). We went to this shop which seemed to have been frequented by a lot of stars as there were photographs of stars and the shop owner all over, plus the walls were plastered with autographs, not just by Japanese stars (like SMAP) but by Hongkie ones as well!

The ramen shop we went to. Established since 43 years ago.

Chris and me

Shoyu ramen (No.1 in the shop)

Miso ramen (recommended by shop owner)

All the autographs plastered over the shop walls

Lots of pics this time... Ha ha!! Shortcut for a lazy person. It is morning now when I am writing this post so forgive the lack of creativity.

  2. That's a decent serve of pork by Jap standards.

    I still feel a bit of resentment at having only 3 tiny beef cubes for our curry rice at every curry house we went to in 2007.

    Hey Chrissie has the lawnmower man been visiting you at night?

  3. I think the ramen at this particular shop was not as great as some others I have tried. On a scale of 1-10, I would rate it a 5.

    There is a type of ramen Sapporo seems to be well known for which is called corn butter ramen. Chrissie tried that and it was yummy! We took pics. Coming soon. I want to try too...

    And no! The lawnmower man has not been visiting!!!! Bad Danny!!!! ^^
