About Us

Welcome to SAPPORO CITY DOT COM (formerly Ichiban No Machi).

The goal of SAPPORO CITY DOT COM is to introduce our readers to some of our favorite business in Sapporo, giving you an insider’s view of why we think Sapporo is the best city in the whole world. We provide local reviews of Sapporo restaurants and other businesses. Unlike some big, corporate websites, we are not trying to show every restaurant and bar in Sapporo. Instead, we provide a short list of carefully chosen recommendations of places to visit in Sapporo, with personal reviews, and hundreds of original photos.

SAPPORO CITY DOT COM is for visitors. It’s for locals. And it is made with love, in Sapporo, the best city in the world.

And if you have comments, suggestions, or recommendations for our staff, please send us an email.

We are an independent media group, providing original, local content about Sapporo, Hokkaido, and other cities across Japan.
