There was a mention of the Ramen Alley in Lonely Planet Japan and we thought we should pay it a visit. If you're not attentive enough you might just miss it. It's almost hidden in between the shops located on the main roads, and there's only this neon light signboard telling us where it was.
Apparently the seafood ramen is a must in Hokkaido. So we did just that. Huge chunks of crab, scallop and pork in mouthwatering soup was just too tempting to resist. It was past midnight and we were dead tired from all the walking. Plus my ill-fitting shoes were killing my feet, but it was worth every drop!
We woke up early the next day to take the train to Asahikawa, but there wasn't much to see there. Just a main road down the station and well, nothing much spectacular apart from that. So we went on to Furano, where we rented a bike and cycled around the town. Our first stop was the cheese factory, where we tasted marbled cheese infused with red wine. Too bad I didn't get to milk a real cow though.
