Kamaei(日文店名為かま栄) / Kamaei

Kamaei (Otaru City) is a very old kamaboko maker, established in 1905. Kamaboko is boiled fish paste. They sell a variety of kamaboko products at their 12 branches throughout Hokkaido, and their factory is located between Otaru Canal and the very popular tourist site - Sakaimachi Street. You can observe the production process of the kamaboko through the show window for free. As the main production time at the factory is in the morning, it is wise to visit before 12.00 p.m. This factory is connected to a shop which also has seating for diners. No reservations are needed for the restaurant. Their most popular product is Pan Roll, which is rolled kamaboko with a slice of bread. Pan means bread in English.

Kamaei(日文店名為かま栄，位於小樽市）是從1095年開業後持續營業至今的魚漿製品老店。它在北海道內成立了12間店面。在因觀光客而熱鬧的堺町通和小樽運河之間的工廠可以免費參觀魚板製作的過程，而且不用事先申請。魚板製造的尖峰時段是在上午，因此如果要去參觀的話中午之前去比較好。想吃點點心的話我推薦Kamaei的魚板，最受歡迎的產品是在麵包上抹上魚漿後再炸過的魚漿麵包卷。

Waya 青年旅舍 / Waya Guesthouse

waya是於2014年11月時開幕的青年旅舍。waya 的日文漢字寫成「和」與「家」。「和」意指希望入住者都能沈靜在這裏（日文漢字的"和"有溫和平靜的意思），「家」意指希望這裏的氣氛能讓入住者如同在自己家般的放鬆，因此取名waya(和家）。而正如其名的，waya整體飄散著會使入住者很自然的說出"我回來了"的氣氛。

札幌拉麵街 / Ramen Alley

札幌拉麵街內林立許多拉麵店，醞釀著獨特的氣氛。（附近也有新札幌拉麵街）拉麵從以前開始就是札幌的著名美食。說到傳統的札幌拉麵便是指味增拉麵。這是因為日本味增拉麵的發源地就是在札幌。現今存在於札幌市區的大丸藤井中央大樓內的「味之三平」就是味增拉麵的起源店。

Ramen Alley consists of two streets - the original one and a new one - and both are narrow.  The new street is located near the original one. There are many ramen noodle shops on both sides of the alley and it has a unique atmosphere. Ramen is well-known as one of Sapporo's local specialty foods, with Sapporo's miso ramen being particularly famous. Miso flavor ramen actually heralds from Sapporo.
