Ebisoba Ichigen is one of Hokkaido's most distinctive ramen shops, known for its rich and flavorful shrimp broth made from sweet shrimp, without the greasiness of pork bone broth. Served in a vermilion bowl, the ramen includes standard toppings like green onions, seasoned egg, and char siu pork, with an added touch of shrimp tempura for extra texture and flavor. Ichigen also has an overseas branch in Taipei. My first taste was at the Ramen Dojo on the third floor of New Chitose Airport. It was the first ramen shop with a line, but the queue moved quickly. While waiting, the staff handed out menus so you could order in line. Once seated, the piping hot shrimp ramen was served promptly, showcasing their efficiency. Despite being made from sweet shrimp, the broth can be customized: pure shrimp, more shrimp with less pork, or more pork with less shrimp. There are also three flavor options: miso, salt, and soy sauce. The noodles come in two thicknesses, and additional side dishes like Ichigen gyoza and rice balls are available, making for a satisfying meal. Given its rich and intense flavor, the quality of shrimp ramen is consistent across all locations, so there's no need to worry about a bad experience. If you want to try seafood-based ramen, Ebisoba Ichigen in Hokkaido is definitely the top choice.

Skymark is a mid-cost carrier (MCC). This airline is often mistaken for an LCC because of the ticket price and the location of the counter. The Pikachu Jet flies between Haneda and New Chitose Airport. They have been flying the Pikachu Jet for some time as part of the "Flying Pikachu Project," and the check-in machines and counters are full of Pikachu and Pichu. You can get a Pikachu mask when you ride the Pikachu Jet, but even if you don't ride the Pikachu Jet, you can get one at the counter per person. If you ride the Pikachu Jet, you can also find Pikachu's in-flight announcements and head covers. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to ride the Pikachu Jet this time because of a change in aircraft. The flight schedule is also available on the official website, so please refer to it. #Skymark #Pikachu #FlightReport

I arrived at the airport in Hokkaido and wanted to eat something delicious! I wanted to have a small snack for my last Hokkaido stay! No, I could have a hearty meal! I looked around Chitose Airport, a hotbed of soft-serve ice cream🍦 that both my children and I love, and this time we tried Kinotoya's soft-serve ice cream. Yotsuba's is reliable, and LeTAO's is delicious, so it must be really hard for those who can't decide. They're all delicious, so try a variety to find your favorite. What kind of soft-serve ice cream do you like? Crisp, rich, sweet, light, what kind? I like light, light, light ice cream that's rich but easy to swallow. #Domestic travel #New Chitose Airport #Gourmet #Spots for kids #Gourmet trip #Soft-serve ice cream

—Basic car rental information— 1️⃣ Car rental platform/company We used Tabirai Japan Car Rental Price Comparison Website Finally rented a car from TOYOTA Take the shuttle bus from Hokkaido Airport 2️⃣ Car model/price The two of us plus our luggage I rented a Toyota Roomy (very fuel efficient) 8 days including basic insurance total 51150 yen 3️⃣ High speed The first type is with an "etc card" (No need to stop, just like the automatic toll payment in Hong Kong tunnels) The etc card can be rented from a car rental company, and you can pay the highway fee when you return the car. There is also an Expressway Pass (HEP) that provides unlimited free expressway meals, averaging +/- ¥1000 a day (but if you don’t use the expressway all the time, you don’t actually need to rent an ETC card) The second type is the "General Channel" Collect your ticket when you enter the highway; pay with cash or credit card when you exit the highway 4️⃣ Parking fee Generally, many scenic spots in the suburbs have free parking. In the city, most of the charges are different, remember to look carefully before parking We stayed overnight at the Sapporo Hotel ¥2000-2200/night Shopping malls usually offer discounts Get a ticket when you enter the parking lot, and give the parking ticket to the clerk directly to offset the parking fee when you check out at the store. When you leave the mall, remember to find a settlement machine first and put the ticket in for settlement. Take the ticket and drive out of the parking lot — Driving precautions during the snowy season — ❗️Remember to check whether the rented car has snow tires/all-season tires Ordinary tires are relatively hard and have poor braking effect in cold environments. ❗️Essential tools "snow brush/ice scraper" are generally provided in the car Because Hokkaido often has heavy snow, your car might be buried while you eat. Tips: Pick up the rain repellent after parking so it will be more convenient to brush the snow when you come back ❗️ Emergency braking is strictly prohibited! Change direction quickly! Slow Drive Snow braking method: Intermittent braking, gently apply the brakes several times in a row. When the car slows down completely, press the brakes deeply. Keep your distance from other cars at all times ❗️Turn on the car lights In addition to turning on your headlights at night, you must also remember to turn on your headlights when visibility is low on snowy days. If you turn on your high headlights at night, remember to switch back to low headlights if there are cars on the opposite lane. ❗️Route & traffic signs Hokkaido is covered with white snow All the lines on the ground are basically invisible I can't see the edge of the road clearly, so I have to pay attention to the signs next to it. Pay attention to the "stop line" and "red arrow" I hope this article can help you as a reference for self-driving tours📝 Remember that the most important thing is to apply for an international driver's license🤣 I wish you all a safe driving and a happy journey 🚗 New Chitose Airport POPLAR Store Address: 758-137, Mitsukoshi, Chitose City, 066-0012 - #HokkaidoTravel #hokkaido #JapanTourism #Hokkaido #Otaru #OtaruTourism #HokkaidoSelf-drivingTour #JapanSelf-driving #Self-drivingTour #JapanCarRent

There is a wide selection of souvenirs such as seafood, Yubari melon, and corn that are unique to Hokkaido, and there is also a wide selection of gourmet food such as soft serve ice cream and ramen. There is also a hot spring on-site, so you can soothe your tired body after a long day of travel. If you stop by on your way back, leave a little extra time so you can enjoy some leisurely shopping! #couplestrip #food
