If there is one thing you can’t bring home and just eat it while in Hokkaido – it is the soft serve! So whenever I saw one, I had to have it! 🙂 I like the plain milk flavor because that is where you can taste the true flavour of the milk
Niskrew sharing their soft serve finds too 🙂
Almost everyone has their version including Royce 🙂
Even the hubby loves Soft serve 🙂 but he likes green tea!
He says he is buying for me
hmmmm……. haha!!!
These snack monsters love soft serve too!! Kai who does all the research told me about this – Cremia which is the ultimate and the richest soft serve ever!!Non stop eating of soft serve even at Haneda airport!! We were at gate 47 and there was only one food stall. A MUST!!!! Cremia soft serve! Cremia is a new kind of soft-serve ice cream dessert that has become extremely popular here in Japan. The creators of this ice cream were aiming for a new high-end soft serve ice cream that would surprise the world.
While normal soft serve ice cream consists of somewhere up to 8% of milk fat, cremia consists of 12.5% of carefully chosen Hokkaido milk. Cremia is also made from 25% of heavy (whipped) cream giving this ice cream a creamy texture and strong milk flavour.
The major difference between normal soft serve ice cream and Cremia is the cone. While normal ice cream cones are the wafer cones that you can find at any ice cream shop, the Cremia’s cones are actually made from langue de chats.
This cafe located in Shibuya, Tokyo and is the head shop of cremia in Tokyo. Silkrema ( http://jpninfo.com/16412 )
Have no fear if you miss having soft serve in Hokkaido – when you get to the airport – ask for the ice cream map!!! or grab these two photos and use it as your guide!!! SOFT SERVE heaven is right at the New Chitose Airport!!!! I want to live here for 2 weeks so I can try 2 a day! haha!!
The most important map in the Chitose Airport! The ice cream map! I counted 26 places in this map! I wish I could try all

The hubby with 4 cheese LeTAO soft serves! I love them both!! haha!!
As soon as we entered the Chitose Airport, this was the first thing I saw! LOVE CALBEE!!!
Everything CALBEE!!!
And I have been wanting to try this!! I always see it in Tokyo but never had the patience to wait in line. Freshly made potato chips! Someone please bring this in Manila!!!
This is one of my favourite snacks which I always buy in Japan! So since I could only finish one, I chose this one to try
YUM! Super yum! It’s like french fries but with their flavouring!! Excited to try the next one when I go back to Japan! Better yet, waiting for someone to bring this to Manila!

It’s the “first blush of spring” that influenced the kate spade new york Spring 2016 collection, as the brand brings to life springtime in New York City, when a simple shortcut through the flower district or a stop in front of a local bodega with bursts of roses and daisies excites a notion of escape. This season, Kate Spade New York debuts a fresh face with famed British model Jourdan Dunn, the star of the brand’s vibrant new campaign, which features fashion and accessories from the core kate spade new york collection, as well as the recently launched Broome Street label and the luxe Madison Avenue label.
The Spring 2016 campaign, shot by Emma Summerton, features an eclectic cast of modern icons – including supermodel and philanthropist Jourdan Dunn; fashion muse Iris Apfel; actress, model and photographer Syrie Moscowitz; fashion illustrator Robert W. Richards; artist, actress and model Anh Duong; author Karley Sciortino; and musician and composer Jon Batiste – celebrating the unique personalities of New York and a nod towards the colorful and vibrant kate spade new york Spring 2016 collection.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Jourdan Dunn, as she joins our team of interesting personalities this season,” shared Deborah Lloyd, President and Chief Creative Officer of kate spade new york. “Similar to our customer, Jourdan is a woman who wears many hats, as a model, mother, philanthropist and chef. She perfectly embodies the spirit of the ‘kate spade new york girl,’ and we’re excited to share this spirit through our Spring 2016 campaign and collection.”
In the Philippines, Kate Spade New York is located at Central Square in Bonifacio High Street Central, Greenbelt 5, Newport Mall, Power Plant Mall, Rustan’s Cebu, Rustan’s Makati and Rustan’s Shangri-La.

There are ramen streets in Sapporo but they say it is touristic so we did not go to any of the streets
There is a Ramen place in Esta building which is right beside our hotel JR Tower and supposedly all the best ramen places in Hokkaido are all here!!




We went to one and Kai had a bowl
Chasu Miso Ramen and she said it was good! 😉
