On our last day in Sapporo, Hokkaido, we headed into the city center (Susukino) to try a random restaurant I had saved on Google Maps. Little did we know, this spot specialized in rare Japanese bear meat 🐻.
The bear meat honestly surprised us, it tasted almost like steak and was incredibly tender! We also tried a bunch of other unique dishes before heading to a more affordable izakaya for an all you can drink lemon sour and beer deal (just ¥1,500 / $15). Perfect way to wrap up Sapporo before flying to Tokyo to visit Kaede’s family.
