Noir Halloween Afternoon Tea

A grown-up Halloween, for October only — a special edition of our autumn afternoon tea in noir and crimson

For the month of October only, our Amber & Spice Autumn Afternoon Tea transforms into a special Halloween menu.

The amber of autumn gives way to noir and crimson. An eyeball verrine that quietly gazes back from the glass, a pizza adorned with a mushroom carved into a skull, and a pear and hojicha dessert where an R.I.P. tombstone stands. Baby carrots reach like fingertips from a komatsuna crumble, and a vol-au-vent becomes a witch’s cauldron filled with Hokkaido venison bolognese. Six sweets and six savouries reflect our chef’s sense of play.

Eerie in appearance, yet every dish is thoughtfully crafted, bringing out the best of autumn ingredients. Hokkaido haskap, Hidaka mascarpone, hanasaki crab and Ebisu pumpkin, and Hokkaido venison are all carefully prepared. We invite you to savour a grown-up Halloween at a leisurely pace, drawn into a world of noir.

Beginning at noon, this afternoon tea may be enjoyed as an unhurried lunch or as a leisurely afternoon interlude. In addition to sparkling wine and draft beer, red and white wine are also available as your welcome drink.

Mexican Lunch Buffet

A Mexican Table That Begins at the Taco Bar

Mention Mexican food, and tacos may be the first thing that comes to mind. Yet tacos are only the beginning. Beyond them lies a remarkably rich table — slow-simmered dishes and soups, rice, everyday home cooking and desserts. Mexico is a country so regionally diverse that its cuisine is often described in terms of six distinct culinary regions. Following “Spice Market” and “Hawaiian Festival”, our lunch buffet continues its journey through the world’s cuisines. This autumn, the stage is Mexico.

The highlight awaits at the very start of the buffet: the Taco Bar. Take a freshly griddled corn tortilla or a crisp tostada, choose your fillings, add your salsa — and from there, it’s entirely up to you.

For fillings, there is Carnitas, pork slowly cooked in lard until meltingly tender, and Tinga de Pollo, shredded chicken simmered in a tomato sauce brightened with smoky chipotle. Five salsas await: Guacamole made with avocado; Salsa Mexicana, whose red, white and green echo the colours of the Mexican flag; the refreshing heat of Salsa Verde; the toasty, fiery Salsa Macha; and the deep, rich Salsa de Adobo. Add fresh vegetables, cilantro, cheese and pickles as you like. Start with carnitas and guacamole, switch the filling for your second, then try the nutty warmth of salsa macha on your third. Build up the heat little by little, or return to a favourite combination — that is the joy of a buffet. Even at the same table, no two tacos will be quite alike.

Beyond the Taco Bar, more of Mexico’s table unfolds. Alongside familiar favourites such as Ceviche, seafood cured in lime, and Enchiladas, well loved at Mexican restaurants in Japan, you will find Sopa de Lima, a Yucatán-style lime soup; Frijoles, the everyday bean staple, and Molletes, bread topped with frijoles and baked; Arroz a la Tumbada, a Veracruz-style seafood rice; and the vivid green Arroz Verde. The dish we most hope you will try is Mole Poblano — chicken simmered in a sauce of chilies, spices, nuts and chocolate, and a centrepiece of Mexican celebrations. The toasty depth of chilies and spices gives way to layers of cacao richness and a subtle sweetness, a flavour rarely encountered in Japan. And in Mexico, spreading frijoles on a tortilla is perfectly ordinary — so why not bring another tortilla from the Taco Bar and give it a try? It is just the kind of freedom a buffet allows.

From late October to early November, Mexico enters its most vibrant season: the Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos), when loved ones who have passed are said to return home to their families. Rather than a time of mourning, it is a festival that welcomes them back with colour and music, rooted in a uniquely Mexican view of life and death. As Sapporo’s trees shed their leaves and the days grow shorter, we bring you Mexico’s most colourful table at the time of year when colour is missed the most. Spend a weekend lunch surrounded by the colours and liveliness of Mexico.

A Touch of Hawaiian Breeze in Hokkaido's Summer

The Hawaiian Festival Lunch Buffet, a beloved highlight of Sapporo’s summer, returns this year on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Now in its third season, this much-anticipated event has won the hearts of many guests as an opportunity to enjoy the vibrant food culture of Hawaii — nurtured by its sun and sea — in a refined hotel dining setting, perfectly suited to Hokkaido’s brief yet brilliant summer.

This year, an enriched lineup brings even more depth to the flavours of Hawaii. Alongside signature favourites such as Ahi Poke, Lomi-Lomi Salmon, Kalua Pig and Cabbage (a local dish of slow-steamed pork simmered with cabbage), Garlic Shrimp, and Loco Moco, this season introduces new additions including the plate lunch staple Mac Salad, Fried Saimin (Hawaiian-style stir-fried noodles), Mahi-Mahi Herb Cutlet featuring the white fish so loved across the islands, the Hawaiian Aloha BBQ Corner, and our chef’s daily-inspired pizza. For desserts, indulge in traditional Hawaiian Haupia pudding made with coconut milk, the vividly colourful Hawaiian Rainbow Shaved Ice, and other delights that bring the spirit of a tropical summer to your table.

To further enrich your dining experience, an Aloha Hula Performance by local hula schools from Sapporo and its surrounding areas will be held twice during each lunch service (12:30 and 13:00).

Amber & Spice Autumn Afternoon Tea

Amber in colour, spice in aroma — an afternoon tea to savour the deepening autumn

The street trees of Sapporo deepen in colour with each passing day. From yellow to orange, and then to amber — as autumn deepens, the city takes on ever warmer tones. Maple syrup, espresso, hojicha, poached pear, fragrant malt scones. Perhaps it is no coincidence that the season’s finest flavours all share the colour of amber.

The Amber & Spice Autumn Afternoon Tea gathers the deepening season plate by plate around this theme of amber, layering it with the aroma of spices — an afternoon tea to be enjoyed through both colour and fragrance.

Nutmeg, cardamom, bergamot, dukkah. When aromatics are layered over the harvest season’s ingredients, flavours grow deeper and richer. Hokkaido Ebisu pumpkin and hanasaki crab quiche is finished with nutmeg and thyme; Hokkaido onion and barley consommé carries a quiet note of cardamom; and poached pear is paired with hojicha jelly and bergamot foam, so that even the lingering aroma becomes part of the pleasure. Our lunch buffet “Spice Market”, with its full-fledged culinary composition centred on spices, has been warmly received over two seasons. This autumn, that expression of aroma is carried into our afternoon tea.

As mornings and evenings grow colder, time spent indoors becomes all the more precious. Beginning at noon, this afternoon tea may be enjoyed as an unhurried lunch or as a leisurely afternoon interlude. Six sweets are matched by six savouries, including truffle arancini and a vol-au-vent of Hokkaido venison bolognese with autumn eggplant, several served warm. Scented with spices, these savouries pair beautifully with wine — and this season, red and white wine join our welcome drink selection.

The very ground on which Hotel Sosei Sapporo MGallery Collection stands is where, in 1876, the Kaitakushi Brewery — the forerunner of Sapporo Beer — was born. Amber is also the colour that marked the beginning of this city. From the start of September until the first snow arrives at the end of November, we invite you to spend an afternoon savouring autumn in colour and aroma, alongside a story found only in this place.
