Muroran is famous for "Curry Ramen" and "Muroran Yakitori" which is eaten with a dash of garlic powder, but the Muroran-style "Katsu-don" (pork cutlet served on top of a bowl of rice) was a little different! Even Rui was surprised to see the steam rising from the katsudon... We also went on a night cruise with a souvenir of yakitori.... The fantastic night view of the factories is also a wonderful memory of the "Iron Town". The conclusion of the day is alcohol....

  • Episode 4Mashike edition24 min

    This time, we go to Mashike, a town known for its "excellent sake"! Mashike Town prospered as a "herring town" and was called " the place of one thousand koku of herring" in its heyday. In those days, the nets and merchants lavishly poured their wealth into mansions, and many historic buildings still remain today. Rui and Muroya visited this nostalgic port town, and the first thing that struck them when they got off at Mashike Station, the terminus of the JR Rumoi Line, was the fresh seafood from the Sea of Japan. They tucked into fresh, clear, sweet shrimp and other original delicacies of Mashike. In the orchards located away from the harbor, you will taste the delicious fruits produced by the natural environment of Mount Shokanbetsu. And speaking of Mashike, the famous sake "Kunimare". A visit to the sake brewery is a must. The sake produced in the harsh natural environment of Mashike has a deep "dry" taste that can not be imitated.

  • Episode 5Kushiro edition24 min

    This time, bar poet Rui Yoshida wanders around Kushiro, a town known for its fishing industry. Rui and Muroya first headed for the Kushiro Marshlands. Surrounded by the magnificent scenery and thrilled by the sounds of Yezo deer and birds, they first enjoyed the great nature of the eastern part of Hokkaido! After taking in the delicious air, they decided that they needed to fill their stomachs, so they went to a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant headquartered in Kushiro. They casually entered the restaurant, but were excited by the amazing nigiri (hand-rolled sushi) and the amazing portions. In addition, you can enjoy Kushiro's local sake, which is a must for sake lovers. You will also find a "food crane game machine," unique to Kushiro! Kushiro's Robata is the best place to spend the night. A place called "Mom's", is a favorite of the locals. Both Rui and Ana Muroya were surprised to find that all-you-can-eat snacks were available for only 1,000 yen.
