Headquartered in Bibai City, "Fukuyoshi"  may be one of the most popular and competitive Yakitori restaurants group in Hokkaido.

My wife and I took the guest to the branch restaurant in Kotoni district of Sapporo City. Various kinds of parts including the intestine of chicken were skewered, grilled and flavored with salt and pepper so nicely.  

The intestine including yolks of chicken were boiled with special sauce .

 The thighs of chicken were sauteed and topped with melted cheese and corn.

The inside of the restaurant was kept tidy and comfortable. There were a few guests in the restaurant.
You have to wrap up the dinner with buckwheat noodle soup topped with grilled chicken.

I took my guest to the place where a famous movie film, featuring Mr. Yoh Ohizumi and Ms. Tomoyo Harada, was shot before.
The Bread of Happiness is the name of the movie film.

The movie film recorded the smash hit in Japan. It may be a bit difficult to reach the place without ample information of the location.

It was a little bit away from the hotel area beside Lake Tohya.
The central island was played up by the sunshine like a spotlight.
To be honest, the house on the photo below is off-limit and we should not be disturbed the life of the family in the house that was used for shooting.

Where do you think we were going to on this escalator ? The length of the escalator is like that of subway station in London, U.K.

 Yes, this is the large hill ski jump schanze of Ohkurayama. Details are described at  http://www.sapporo-dc.co.jp/eng/okurayama/index.html

This is the restaurant beside the schanze. It was closed when we visited after the dinner.  The ski jump set including suits of the  Olympic games medalists were displayed in the building.  

 Even in summer, ski jump games are held in this area. My wife and the guests stood on the landing field.

It was a little bit hot in the night but now, all the facility is covered with white snow. The escalator on the photo above connected the parking area to this gelande.
Good night !

Epilogue 9 ! Feast !

I hope my guest savored the cuisine in "Garden Grill of Sapporo Beer Garden". This baked potatoes topped with creamy cheese was the best as the starter with the first pint of beer.

It stimulated our stomach so much to swallow other dishes and grilled meat. This ramen salad topped with sprout, sliced ham and veggies was my favorite to be honest.

After chatting on her stay in Hokkaido including Akkeshi Town, the main grill, Jingiskan pot got started and we were filled with happiness and satisfaction.

The entrance of " Garden Grill" in Sapporo Beer Garden was decorated so nicely with the collection of the art works and valuables.

As it was in summer, no burning logs were in the fireplace.

A variety of lamb meat can be ordered as shown on the left.

It seemed that the Jingiskan Pot of grain-fed lamb and grilled marbled-beef topped the list of excellency.

This is the Jingiskan Pot of flat-type.  

First of all, the thick asparagus should be grilled and savored before the smell of grilled meat filled in the space.  

The quality lamb was served to our table and the feast got started. The meat was not dried nor aging. It was not so-called  dried nor  aging and rather fresh.To be continued.
