MILK KOBO （ミルク工房）| Ice Cream Parlor | Niseko

Niseko is famous for its powdery snow, and a lot of people enjoy skiing and snowboarding there, but do you know it is also famous for its milk? Today I'll introduce "MILK KOBO （ミルク工房）", one of the yummy x 2 ice cream parlors in this town, to you!

This shop is near Hilton Niseko Village （ヒルトンニセコビレッジ）. Well, well, well, let's enter it!

Their ice cream is super x 2 delicious!! I always come here when I stay at Hilton Niseko Village! Am I addictive to their desserts? Hahaha!!

Look at the ice cream made of milk fresh from the cow and local vegetables & fruits! How wonderful it is!

This time I bought the milk soft ice cream! It tastes really milk! How appetizing it is!!

Actually this shop is famous not only for its ice cream, but also for its cream puff!!

After they get an order, they fill fresh custard into the puff! Perfect, isn't it?

Would you like to take one bite? Hahaha!

The custard is made of milk fresh from the cow that day only! I really love this very creamy custard!

I also recommend this yogurt drink!

Last but not least, I bought this fruit roll as a souvenir↓ It is a production-limited roll with dices of kiwi fruits, peaches,  raspberries .......

I fully enjoyed Niseko with my tour guests this time again!!!

GREEN LEAF Niseko Village （ザ・グリーンリーフ・ホテル）| Ski Resort Hotel | Niseko

If you want to ski and snowboard a lot in Niseko, how about "GREEN LEAF Niseko Village （ザ・グリーンリーフ・ホテル）"?

It takes 0 minutes from the hotel to slopes. How convenient it is!

I always use the Early Gondola service, starting at 7:30! I really love perfect  powdery snow in Niseko!

Let's enter the hotel! How neat the lobby is!

They have a bar, and we sometimes use it at night (and daytime!!!).

We feel as if we were in the forest!

This is a twin room, where we can use WiFi, although it is very slow and sometimes disconnected.....

When I got up early in the morning, I was so surprised at the snow outside of my room. We have a lot of snow this year!!!

Are you hungry? Let's go to "goshiki", a breakfast venue!

We can enjoy local fresh vegetables grown in Niseko here. Except the vegetables, don't expect too much! This is a ski resort hotel! Hahaha!

Among the dishes, I love..............

freshly-baked French toast! Yummy x 2!!!

Voila!!
Niseko reminds me of its wonderful onsen or hot spring!!!

They have both inner and outdoor onsen.

The water has a lot of minerals such as sodium, which makes our skin very smooth!!

After keeping our body warm in the indoor onsen, let's go to the outdoor one! How comfortable it is!!

The hot spring is not diluted with any water, and very dense.

They have shiatsu, or acupressure service although it is a little bit expensive.

Niseko makes me stress-free!!!

If you don't mind staying casual hotels not luxuary hotels with super service, you must like this hotel next to ski slopes.

Restaurant LUPICIA NISEKO （レストラン ルピシア ニセコ）| Niseko

I'm in Niseko （ニセコ） now again! The snow condition this year is perfect, and ski slopes are packed with a lot of ski and snowboard lovers every day!
Anyway, I took part in a party last night in Niseko.

Look at the sign covered with snow!!! We have  sufficient snow to ski in Niseko this year!

LUPICIA reminds a lot of people of its delicious tea, but they have a restaurant, too!

I love parties very much because I can meet a lot of people through the wonderful opportunities!!

As I was very thirsty,

I enjoyed a lot of wine, beer, sake, and so on. Do you like my excuse? Hahaha!

A lot of dishes with local ingredients were served there such as ...............

smoked salmon,

oysters,

sea urchin mousse,

bouillabaisse, and so on!

I ate and ate, drank and drank, and chatted and chatted.........

We had a great time last night.

RUSUTSU RESORT （ルスツリゾート）

This is "RUSUTSU RESORT （ルスツリゾート）"↓, one of the famous ski resorts in Hokkaido!

At night, the facility is lighted up like this↓

How romantic it is!!

During the Christmas season, it is decorated with Charisma ornaments in and outside of the hotel and the ski slopes.

The room is very comfortable! I love it!

About the dinner, we can choose several options at the hotel.
First, how about the buffet?

October Fest （オクトーバーフェスト） serves a wide variety of local dishes.

Looks very cozy, doesn't it?

I love Hokkaido food, such as shika deer meet↓,

king crabs,

freshly-fried tempura, and

seafood bowl!!! Yummy x 2!!

I tried CENA （チェーナ）, an Italian restaurant at the hotel, too.

They have Japanese, French, and Izakaya restaurants and so on!!!

Using a dinner coupon, we can enjoy Italian dinner course like this↓

The facility has hot spring, which makes us relaxed especially after skiing and snowboarding!

 About breakfast, I recommend the buffet.

We can eat as much salmon row as possible!! Hahaha!

I made salmon row bowl! How wonderful it is!!

How about this local drink? The milk with yam and oligosaccharide （健康ドリンク　ヤーコンオリゴ糖入り） is not very delicious (sorry!!), but very unique!

They have several bread fresh from oven!

If you want to eat a Japanese set menu, how about Sekkatei （雪花亭）?

It has wide windows, providing comfortable stay for a long time!

The set is like this↓

The snow condition here is perfect!

I recommend this resort for real ski and snowboard lovers.
