On the side of the common people!

[Diet from tomorrow] 17:00 on June 30, 2009

Did you know that Ginza Inns (Ginza Inns 3 1F) under the high speed of Tokyo Kosoku Doro is Chuo-ku? I love Japonnet, a spaghetti restaurant with a sense of volume that will definitely fit the taste of Japanese people. In the store with only the counter, one female customer has recently become prominent. (That's so delicious)

All tastes can be selected from Japanese, Chinese, and Western styles that make it easy. I promise you to be sick too. The price is also reasonable.

 

 

 

Do you know what you are talking about in the street?

[Satsuki Yanagi] 17:00 on June 30, 2009

"Rikishi seal" is a common name in the street. downwardleftThe real thing is such a sticker (the place is affixed from the telephone box in front of cafeStarbucks along Eitai-dori St., just after exiting Exit 3 of Kayabacho Station).

It seems that the power is expanding not only in Chuo-ku, but also recently in Chiyoda-ku, Minato-ku, Shinjuku-ku, Shibuya-ku, etc., but what I noticedflair was 2-3 years ago ...

I saw it quite often in Ginza and Nihonbashi neighborhoods.

It also chooses a place where people want to see it, just a mischief, or sign02a place that is not very noticeable. For example, the back of the phone in the telephone box as described above, the back of the historical site display version, the pillar of the traffic sign, etc. ...

This way down... (Behind the historical site description version in front of hotelHotel Villa Fontaine at Eitai-dori St., Shinkawa 1-chome intersection).

rikishi2.jpg rikishi3.jpgMoreover, to be clear, it is a seal with two "creepy" faces that I don't think it's cute or wonderfulcoldsweats02.

When, who, forsign02 what, and for what, for me...eye

It seems that it has become a topic in the street these days.

pcWhen I searched variously on my personal computer, there were many people who were more interested than me, such as me, sign03so it was very easy to understand and detailed, so I put an address.

The author of the "Rikishi Seal" seems to be narrowing down, and I'm looking forward to flairthe future.

 

 

A curry shop with a rich humanity ~ Ginza, New Castle ~

[Ken] 17:00 on June 30, 2009

I went to a shop called "New Castle" in Ginza 2-chome for lunch. Although it is a curry shop, it is a shop where the name of the menu is the name of the JR station, so I knew it existed for a long time, but it was my first visit.

The exterior is like a futo coffee shop. But there is a mysterious blackboard in front of the store, and it is true that the name of the JR station is written.

I looked at the letter on the blackboard and said, "I see, this is the menu...."I thought I opened the door of the store. Welcome You can be greeted by a healthy woman’s voice. It's nice to have a shop where the first voice of the clerk feels good. The shop seems to be cut out by one male woman. It looks like a couple.

When he sat at the counter and was wondering what to do, his wife said, "I recommend" Omori "for men." Honestly, “Well, then...."I asked you. I'll bring you a sports newspaper with water. You can feel the details.

  Curry was served soon.

  There is a fried egg on top of the curry. When I took it immediately, it was a mild taste that could even be faint sweetness at first, but the spicy stimuli spread throughout my mouth as I tasted it.

In this shop, curry is called spicy rice (karai rice). When I asked Mr. Miyata, the master, why he said, "I expressed the pain of coming slowly later." I'm convinced to eat it! That's the reason. The secret of deliciousness is to boil vegetable-based curry slowly the day before and serve it to customers the next day.

It was founded in 1946. It's a friendly shop that I don't think it's in Ginza, but the taste is authentic. Please add it to your Ginza lunch options. Mr. Miyata I'm happy with the detailed customer service of the couple.

The 8th Chuo-ku Boquet Festival

[Domes] June 26, 2009 17:30

 On June 26 and 27, the 8th Chuo-ku bouquet festival.

It seems that it is a "support song for women who work at home in the community at work", and we were worried that there is no place for men, but that is not the case. Of course, at the beginning, the participatory questionnaire surrounded by women was blurred, but postcards from the azalea party and cute dolls from the Miyabi party softened my mind. In addition, in the Bon Odori of the Otowakai, a familiar jump-in dancer appeared, and my heart was greatly enriched.                                    

 The only one I took up here is the current eco-life {low-carbon life recommendation}.           

 On the 3rd floor, Eco*Being showed me water-themed food mileage and virtual water measurements this year. There are pictures of the feast on the table, and you can choose one you like. I made hamburger rice, but when I operated the keyboard while explaining Japan's food self-sufficiency rate and drinking water, water was 1785 plastic bottles and about 18 cups of 200 liters of tub were used until I got into my mouth with hamburgers and rice full of 150g imported beef. It's amazing.

Besides this, there are many things to learn. On the 26th, a rakugo yoseki was also held. Dome-kun

 

 

From Nihonbashi Ryogoku, along the Kanda River

[Kitayujin] June 26, 2009 16:59

 Last time, I described this area as an outward north of Chuo-ku, but the terrain sandwiched between the Sumida River and the Kanda River reminds me of a cape. After the great fire of the Meiryaku era was set up, and there were a lot of ballac-style viewing huts, and it was a great place. There is a stone monument near the intersection, but if you can feel the history, it is about restaurants such as "Toriyasu" and "Kameseiro" across the Kanda River and "Yakuken Mining Fudoin". On the contrary, the smell of the atmosphere is present in both Sumida Ward countries.

If you walk along a narrow alley along the Kanda River from the side of Ryogoku Bridge, you will see Yanagibashi.

 A monument derived from the bridge and a monument to reconstruction after the Great Kanto Earthquake stand.

 If you walk along a narrow road along the river, you will be heading to Edo-dori St. from Asakusa to Nihonbashi.

There is a boarding house between Yanagibashi and Asakusabashi, and you can see many houseboats connected to the Kanda River.

You can also buy seasonal tsukudani at the boarding house.

There is a single street between Yasukuni Dori, opposite of this road. (It seems that the name Hatsune Mori Street has recently been given.) You will not step in too much, but you can meet a building with an intriguing name.

1. Sock House    2. Tokyo Sosho Kaikan     3. Fuji light carpet (carpet hall)        

 Also, you will be surprised by the building with a red shrine torii gate in front of the post office at the exit of this street (called Ryogoku Post Office).

This shrine is called Hatsune Mori Shrine and seems to have been located on the west side of the current Asakusabashi, a shrine built around 1330, but after the great fire of the Meiryaku era, it was relocated to Sumida-ku, and built a temple here in 1973. An old book describing the great fire of the Meiryaku era

The print of "Musashi Abumi" introduced the terrible state of the fire.
