In Sapporo, in the entertainment district of Susukino there is a cozy little restaurant that has a menu full of delicious dishes! The term ‘Dosanko’ is used for people born and raised in Hokkaido.

For such a small restaurant, they really pack an extensive menu that will please any guest. The dishes are predominantly Italian, though they do have some French and Spanish thrown in for good measure.
