"Bar Vin's" - a must-try Tokachi cocktail that can only be found here

Let us introduce you to a hidden bar that brightens up Obihiro's nightlife.

"Bar Vin's" is a popular bar where you can enjoy "Tokachi Cocktails" that allow you to experience Tokachi. This shop is located in the basement of a building, and the entrance is a little hard to find, giving it a hidden feel.

When you open the door, you'll see a counter with eye-catching retro lighting. The bartenders are kind and welcoming, creating an authentic atmosphere, so even bar beginners can feel at ease.

The bar serves not only classic cocktails, but also cocktails that are like restaurant dishes, all of which are made with great skill, with each ingredient and drink carefully calculated and combined. You can gaze in awe at the beautifully created cocktails being made from across the counter.

The result was the bar's signature cocktail, "Ramanas rose and Tea (1,500 yen)." It is a vibrant cocktail made by combining cold-brewed black tea with "Honoho Bouquet Gin Liqueur," which has a mellow sweetness and a gorgeous floral aroma. The round ice cubes contain edible flowers, so you can enjoy the change in the floral aroma as the ice slowly melts.

Speaking of Obihiro's famous sweets, "Rokkatei Marusei Butter Sandwich" has been loved for many years for its exquisite balance of rich butter cream and rum raisins. You can taste a cocktail made with this Marusei Butter Sandwich. First, crumble the butter sandwich.

The cocktail is then completed by adding the rum "Havana Club" and the cream liqueur "BAILEYS."

A frozen-style cocktail with a fun, crisp texture. The gentle sweetness of the butter sandwich, the aroma of the rum and slight bitterness are in perfect balance, making this a luxurious drink that feels like an adult dessert. Indulge in this new-sensation cocktail that lets you taste Hokkaido's famous sweets in a new way and you'll feel a little good.

Why not spend a special moment enjoying a cocktail that captures the rich food culture of Obihiro?

"Pork bowl Hanatokachi" serves an original pork bowl that you can enjoy half loin and half belly meat.

"Butadon" is one of Obihiro's most famous dishes, and there are many specialty shops in the city.

Among the many shops lined up, one popular pork bowl restaurant is "Pork Bowl Hanatokachi." It's a 7-8 minute walk from Obihiro Station, and is a popular spot visited by many tourists visiting Obihiro and locals.

Hanatokachi's pork bowl is made with carefully selected pork from Hokkaido, including tender and lean loin meat and moderately fatty belly meat. They also use carefully selected ingredients, including rice from Hokkaido, horseradish from Tokachi, and black edamame.

The most popular dish is the "Hanbara Pork Bowl (Medium) (1,500 yen)," an original pork bowl that allows you to enjoy half tender Hokkaido loin and half belly meat. It is a luxurious bowl that allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds, as you can eat two types of meat at the same time. The generous amount of meat that overflows from the bowl and the delicious aroma of the sauce will whet your appetite...!

The secret to its deliciousness is the secret sauce, which is made in-house without any additives and is carefully handcrafted. It is light yet rich, and blends well with the pork, bringing out its flavor. The horseradish in the middle adds a refreshing touch, further enhancing the flavor.

The pork is juicy and tender, and the sweet and salty flavor of the special sauce matches perfectly with the rice. With just one bite, the delicious flavor and aroma of the pork fills your mouth, making it very satisfying to eat.

We also recommend adding some "Tokachi Nagaimo Tororo (560 yen)" midway through to turn it into a Yamakake rice bowl.
The savory flavor of the pork and the soft texture of the yam create a delightful harmony in your mouth, resulting in a refreshing taste.

Enjoy the flavors of Obihiro, Hokkaido, as you savor the balance of juicy pork grilled in a secret sauce and rice.
