Seafood buffet for all the senses
OMO5 Hakodate’s breakfast buffet offers a sumptuous lineup of Hakodate’s finest seafood. Of particular note is the five-course main dish called Kaisen Five Stars. The first is the Kaisen-don, a bowl of flavorful vinegared rice mixed with condiments and topped with a generous portion of fresh seafood of your choice. You can enjoy your own original Kaisen-don.
The seared seasonal seafood and vegetables are grilled to a savory perfection, and the flavor of the ingredients brought out by the searing process is exquisite. In addition, sushi made with fresh seafood from Hakodate is beautifully presented and appetizing as the chef prepares it in front of your eyes. The tio ramen noodles, made with a rich broth of kelp, shellfish, and crab, are packed with the flavor of seafood and will warm your body and soul from the morning. Finally, ikameshi, a Hakodate specialty, is served with the original flavor of Abe Shoten, allowing you to enjoy the exquisite harmony of squid and rice that spreads with each bite.
A dining experience that is also pleasing to the eye
The OMO Dining Room, where breakfast is served, features a live kitchen inspired by Goryokaku. In the bustling market-like atmosphere, dishes are prepared in front of your eyes, one after another. With a bright, open space that evokes the sea of Hakodate, complete with squid-ink dyed art boards and fishing net lighting, diners can enjoy breakfast while enjoying the lively atmosphere of the port city.
