余市Sagra

an inn and restaurant in the countryside. i recommend staying the night so you get to experience both dinner and breakfast. The rooms are so comfy and i loved the tub. there are only three tables at dinner, and the menu is led by the seasons. the food was delicious and incredibly fresh (upon arriving we saw some recently dug-up sunchokes at the doorway and we were served them for dinner that evening). do not skip the hidden wine pairing, comprised entirely of producers from hokkaido. you also get an incredibly hearty breakfast in the morning. we got cured salmon, ikura, roasted deer, soup, and some of the best rice of the entire trip. the chef and host are incredibly kind and generous, and i hope we get the chance to come back. p.s. has self booking through the tock platform
