Enjoy Hakodate’s beloved “Ikameshi” in a fun, delicious way at “Winter Squid Festival”.

From November 15, 2025 to March 18, 2026, OMO5 Hakodate by Hoshino Resorts hosts the Winter Squid Festival, spotlighting Hakodate’s iconic “Ikameshi” at breakfast and in the café.

Savor live-cooked classic ikameshi, creative Western-style versions, and even “Ikameshi Ice Cream” co-developed with a local maker—enjoy everything from traditional to surprising new tastes.

At the breakfast buffet, “Seafood Five Stars” features five signature seafood dishes, including the original Abe Shoten Mori Ikameshi—the only hotel in Hakodate where you can taste this special dish.

Prepared live with secret sauce poured over steaming hot squid, this simple yet ultimate way of eating ikameshi is an unforgettable experience.

Staff dressed as traditional station vendors appear in the OMO Dining area to serve “Vongole Ikameshi,” a Western twist on the classic.

Enjoy a rich seafood soup with plump squid and warm up with this hearty dish. Try six different mayonnaise sauces and hear tips and trivia for a fun, tasty time.

At OMO Café & Bar, try the “Ikameshi Ice Cream” recreating the sweet-savory taste of ikameshi rice and sauce.

Co-developed with local homemade ice cream & sherbet specialist “Fuji Reika,” it’s topped with sauce and a squid-shaped rice cracker.

Perfect after a soak in the onsen, it’s a refreshing and eye-catching dessert.

During the festival, the shop sells limited Abe Shoten original goods.

Choose from individually packaged ikameshi, retort curry, or retro-logo bags and T-shirts—perfect souvenirs to take home from Hakodate.
