Tucked away in Tokyo, Harukor is a rare cultural gem celebrating the resilient heritage and gastronomy of Hokkaido’s Indigenous Ainu people. Founded by Teruyo Usa, the intimate izakaya serves traditional staples like delicate ohaw salmon soup, wild lily tempura, and tender venison paired with foraged alpine herbs. Guests are welcomed into a warm atmosphere where they can learn about Ainu history, explore native flavors, and perhaps even enjoy a live performance on the traditional tonkori string instrument. It offers an exceptional culinary experience and an unforgettable window into a distinct, living culture.
