Sapporo soup curry & ramen real review, locals eat these

After staying in Sapporo for a few days, I ate at the following restaurants based on various recommendations: [Soup Curry] ❶GARAKU🌟🌟🌟🌟 Sapporo soup curry is the best! Located near Tanukikoji, the line often reaches the sidewalk, and on weekdays the waiting time is at least 30 minutes. The signature chicken drumstick curry soup has soft and tender chicken legs without being fried. The soup base is refreshing and watery. You can choose the spiciness level (medium or above is recommended for a more satisfying taste). It goes great with turmeric rice and cheese! The disadvantage is that there are too many people and the seats are crowded, but the food is served quickly and the turnover rate is high, so it is recommended to check in during off-peak hours. ❷Ramai🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The environment is spacious like a private room, with plenty of ingredients to satisfy your hunger! Few people recommend it but the locals love it. It mainly serves Indian-style soup base, with optional spiciness and free soup and rice. It is the best value for money. The combination of chicken legs and pork is solid, the soup base is more refreshing and less greasy than GARAKU, the large seats are suitable for large gatherings, and there is basically no need to queue. The experience is much better than that of the Internet celebrity restaurant! 【Ramen】 ❶Yuu Ramen (Ramen Yokocho)🌟🌟🌟🌟 The boss looks like the male lead in a Japanese drama! The original yuzu salt ramen has a refreshing soup with a fruity aroma, thinly sliced ​​barbecued pork and tasty, and a runny egg. It is socially friendly and the boss will personally explain how to eat it, with a full sense of humor! The location is hidden but the atmosphere is unique, suitable for a healing late-night check-in. ❷ Shingen Ramen🌟🌟🌟 Sapporo Miso Ramen Top 1, the soup base is so thick that it can be hung on the spoon, the garlic + milk flavor is intertwined, and the noodles are chewy and springy. But the queue is an open-air "standing ticket" queue, which is freezing in winter and takes an average of at least 1 hour! Locals recommend ordering the "Shinshu Rich Miso". The fried rice is also good but the portion is small. It is recommended to order during off-peak hours or take out and cook your own dumplings. ❸Ichihuan Ramen🌟🌟🌟🌟 The shrimp soup is so delicious! The main store is located in a remote place but it's worth it. The shrimp soup has 3 concentrations to choose from (the original flavor is "そのまま"), and it is paired with noodles with more sauce. You can enjoy the indoor heating while waiting for a table, and ordering in batches is more efficient. We recommend the "shrimp + pork bone" double soup base, and don't miss the shrimp rice balls and fried dumplings! The branch is at New Chitose Airport, so you can use it even when you are catching a flight. 【Finally】 There is no standard answer for soup curry and ramen! Some people are willing to queue for an hour for GARAKU, while others think Shingen is too salty; Ichigen’s shrimp soup is regarded as a masterpiece by its fans, while those who are afraid of the fishy smell just shake their heads... When it comes to traveling, the gold standard is to make your own taste buds happy! #FebruaryGoodPlaces2025 #NewYearGoodPlaces2025 #Food #Ramen #SoupCurry #HokkaidoTravel #JapaneseFoodGuide
