Courtyard by Marriott Sapporo Pairs Hokkaido Ingredients With Traditional French Cuisine for Its Autumn France Fair

From Tuesday, September 1 through Monday, November 30, 2026, Courtyard by Marriott Sapporo's second-floor all-day dining restaurant Substance is holding an autumn France Fair.

Built around "bistro cuisine," the roots of Executive Chef Tanaka's cooking, the fair's menu blends Hokkaido ingredients such as beef sirloin with the essence of traditional French cuisine. Guests can enjoy dishes that draw out each ingredient's natural flavor through the chefs' sensibility and skill, paired with wine, for a relaxed autumn moment with close friends or someone special.

Assorted Homemade Charcuterie

An assortment of the executive chef's own charcuterie: pâté en croûte, a meat pâté wrapped in pastry; jambon blanc, a salt-cured then cooked ham often called "white ham"; jambon persillé, ham and parsley set in aspic; and rillettes, a pork paste made by slow-cooking the meat. All are made in-house to the executive chef's own recipes, each offering a different flavor and texture.

Salt-Crusted Hokkaido Beef Sirloin With Béarnaise Sauce, Served With French Fries

Hokkaido beef sirloin slow-baked in a salt crust to seal in its juices and flavor, for a moist, tender bite that showcases the richness of Hokkaido beef.

Coq au Vin

A classic French dish of chicken braised tender in red wine, layered with the savory depth of vegetables and bacon.

Tarte Flambée

A traditional dish from the Alsace region: a thin crust topped with fromage blanc, bacon, and onion and baked until fragrant, balancing creamy richness, savory bacon, and the sweetness of onion.

Jumbo Gâteau Mont Blanc

A jumbo Mont Blanc piped generously with rich chestnut cream, a shareable specialty dessert built around the chestnut's deep flavor and the smooth texture of Hokkaido fresh cream.

Crêpes Suzette

A traditional French sweet: thin crêpes finished in a fragrant orange-butter sauce. Prepared tableside in front of guests, it offers the fresh scent of citrus and a refined sweetness.
