Kōhīhausu

Sapporo


This soup curry shop near the Moiwa-yama Ropeway comes highly recommended by Sapporo locals. Most popular: the chicken curry (チキンカレー; chikin karē) with a 'medium' (中; chū) spice level. Get it with coffee for ¥1000. Kōhīhausu is an unhurried, dimly lit place strewn with antiques.
