Japan’s favourite ski resort is famous for deep powder and incredible skiing. Where better to eat<br />

than three of Niseko’s best restaurants?<br />

Rakuichi Soba<br />

The thin buckwheat noodle is a Japanese speciality. Soba<br />

is eaten everywhere, but nowhere is it quite as special<br />

as in Sobadokoro Rakuichi. A small, family restaurant with<br />

just a few seats, it’s home to soba master Chef Tatsuru<br />

Rai, who transforms the humble noodle into something<br />

incredibly special.<br />

One of Japan’s most famous exports is sushi; this is one of the<br />

best places to find it in Hokkaido. The<br />

dedicated chefs are committed to<br />

the omakase style of dining<br />

that leaves the customer<br />

in their trusted hands.<br />

Karabina<br />

A local favourite Izakaya or “stay-drink-place”, Karabina is only<br />

a tiny venue but has a food and drink menu that will excite<br />

even the most jaded palate. Try out classics such as smoked<br />

mackerel or push out the boat and order the fried lotus flowers.<br />

Sushi Hanayoshi<br />
