Restaurant
At the sole restaurant at this airport, Cafe Restaurant PILICA, all the tastes of Eastern Hokkaido are available for you. Onions are a specialty product of Kitami and is featured in Kitami Onion Ramen (miso, salt, or soy sauce base). The refreshing taste of salt base ramen is especially delicious and is recommended with some freshly squeezed lemon. Another decadent dish is the pork rice bowl featuring Tokachi pork expertly grilled over charcoal and finished with a rich sauce that pairs well with rice. Be sure to try the escalope, a Western-style dish with a cutlet on buttered rice with a demiglace sauce.
