Vegan French L'esperanceレスペランス

I found the place by looking for vegan dinner spots on google maps that had no reviews yet, so I was a bit hesitant, but I am so happy that I went with him because the place was a vegan oase. the location is actually the same place as aoi sora, but they work during different hours. the place is a little hard to find at the first (shmal door), but they will find it. there is really no menu, they simply decide how many dishes they want in their course, and the prices are set according to the number of dishes. and all dishes are completely vegan! They offer different organic and vegan alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, so choose their favorite with the tellers that always come at the perfect time. they never want to stop eating, but they know that they reach their limit since each plate is so full of good quality, hearty foods with locally grown ingredients that the owner collects from local farms, or that he simply grows himself. the owner is very well informed about the vegan movement in sapporo and will be happy to talk to everyone (in Japanese). recommend the place for anyone looking for delicious healthy food, which is fantastic, but also comforting.

Koch is a crazy scientist with unique taste and textures creating beautiful and healthy culinary delights. You can choose from a 7 course or 10 course. I think 7 is full enough, but I didn't want to miss anything, so ordered the 10 course when it was available on my second visit. Everything was unique, delicious, healthy and beautiful presented. Do not miss the homemade fermented sodas!

We made reservations via Instagram. Place was cozy and intimate. We had the 7-course dinner and each dish was so delicious, original and creative. A unique experience!

The entire restaurant is run by a guy who cooks and serves everything. All the time it feels like we were invited to his house for a strange and elaborate meal. As far as I can say that he does not really speak English (my girlfriend was available to communicate), but I reserved a table (in English) on Instagram and had no problems. Good signage and easy to find (can be updated since previous reviews). We got the 10-course menu and it was honestly all extremely varied and simply super cool and delicious. Feels very demanding, but up to Earth. I write this review because this guy is great and earns more money! Would like to return for another season to see what new dishes he comes with.

The food was delicious and savoury, the non-alcoholic cocktails are also great!
