Zanshin is a cool little bar in Susukino, Sapporo. It is particularly well known to snowboarders, skiers, and skateboarders. The staff here are and were semi pro skiers and snowboarders and definitely bring friendliness and some wildness to the bar!

There is some counter seating plus a couple of couches and tables fro larger groups.

For a night out on the town in Obihiro most of the bars and restaurants are on the north side of Obihiro Station. Walking the streets you will come across Tokachi No Nagaya & Kitanoyatai. These narrow streets cover two blocks and seem to be one of the most popular areas for the locals. Lining the streets are around forty small bars, izakayas, and restaurants. They are all quite compact and can fit up to around twelve people (some even have standing space only). Each bar is unique and as you walk down the street you can see and hear the revelers enjoying a good night out on the town.
The compact shops at Kita no Yatai and Tokachi no Nagaya serve locally brewed sake and the food here is fantastic. You can find dishes made from the fresh produce of Tokachi. One of the great things about these bars is that they are open all year and can be enjoyed in any weather. They have covers to keep the warmth in winter and are opened out during the summer. There is a great atmosphere throughout the streets and is a great Japanese experience. These streets are a must see while in Obihiro and worth more than one visit to enjoy all the bars and restaurants!

Sapporo, and its nightlife district of Susukino is full of bars, clubs and restaurants either on the main road or tucked away down small alleyways or streets.

| Notes | Contains 10 Ramen restaurants, no smoking |
| Location / Getting There | Located inside the New Chitose Airport on the third floor. 1292-33 Bibi, Chitose, Hokkaido 066-0012 |
For those who are on their journey out of Sapporo and are looking for one final taste of delicious Hokkaido ramen, then there is still one more chance! You can dine on a last ramen lunch or dinner at the Hokkaido Ramen Dojo. Hokkaido Ramen Dojo is an arcade that runs through the dining area of the New Chitose Airport. This arcade contains ten of some of the most popular ramen restaurants throughout Hokkaido. The arcade is located on the third floor and is easily recognizable by the giant map of Hokkaido made out of ramen bowls!
When entering this area we suggest not diving into the first ramen store you see. Take your time and look around. Each of these ramen restaurants have their own unique taste and extra toppings. They all have your three main flavors, being miso flavored, shio (salt) flavored broth and shoyu (soy sauce) flavored soup, but one of the biggest pulls for this collection of ramen stores is that the stores here have extras for your ramen that can’t be found outside of the airport. All the menus here and the staff are catered for travelers from afar so you will be fine if you don’t speak or read any Japanese. So, for ramen lovers, definitely poke your nose (and your taste buds) in and have a look.
