This interestingly named store is a chain of restaurants that can be found throughout all of Japan. There is only one ‘Hole in the Wall’ in Hokkaido and that can be found directly above Sapporo station in the Stellar Place shopping center on the 6th floor. These restaurants originally started as far back as 1952 and were one of the few that started to specialize in spaghetti. Back at that time, Italian food was still very new to Japan so there is a lot of history behind these stores. To make it more familiar with Japanese people they used Japanese ingredients making their own “Japanese-style spaghetti.”
This Japanese, Italian fusion cuisine has some interesting dishes on its menu. Hole in the Wall has five types of raw pasta, including spaghetti, tagliolini and tagliatelle. The menu has over thirty different pastas to choose from, many with toppings with a Japanese flavor such as squid, fish eggs, sea urchin and dried sea weed to name a few. There are lunch sets that come with a salad and drink. The antipasti menu has prosciutto, french fries in garlic butter, or garlic toast. Hole in the Wall also have some nice steak dishes on their main dishes.
