For 8.5 daytime hours at NGO, I will definetely board the train to downtown Nagoya. The fastest train takes 28 minutes. Check schedule and fare at

As for the airport itself, there is a shopping mall in the airpot like PIT. Most of the shops are outside the security area, and you will find plenty opportunites in dinning. There is even a public bath for you to stretch your legs while watching the air craft taking off or landing. But 8.5 hours maybe too much to explore this shopping mall.
