The number of fashionable "Japanese cafes" has increased in Ginza. This shop introduced today is located in the basement of a building that goes a little toward Shimbashi along Azuma-dori, behind Matsuzakaya. The probability that people who don't know the shop will enter is quite low, but after 14:00 on Sunday when I entered with a friend I guided me, the table and counter seats are almost full. You can see how popular it is.
When you take a step forward with the smile of your husband and wife, you can see that it is not a very first shop and you can relieve tension. The owner who explains "recommended" is a good and friendly tone that is not imposing is the result of the accumulation of sales know-how in the businessman era!
Today, according to the recommendation of "businessmen", two people have "specially selected warabi mochi" and "cream anmitsu" SHARE. Both come with crude tea from Shizuoka (1,575 yen). (Incidentally, "rough tea" refers to tea that has not been refined by heating freshly picked leaves with steam, and is also called Namacha or coarse tea. I didn't know because I didn't study.)
As instructed by the master, pour it into a teapot and wait for 10 seconds and slowly pour it into the bowl, the scent of the deep tea leaves spreads in your mouth. Unexpectedly two people at the same time "delicious!" 。 The wife's handmade warabi mochi, anmitsu Shiratama, and black honey are also excellent. Even though I just had a lot of lunch, it is "Kukufuku".
In addition to the sweetness, this is the original shop, 11 kinds of cucumber sencha, gyokuro, matcha, and hojicha (both 1,470 yen to 1,680 yen with Japanese sweets), all of which are carefully selected from teahouses nationwide. It is only a specialty item that you have done. It seems that several people enjoy drinking and comparing tea in each production area. Of course, you can also purchase what you like.
It rained while relaxing with the cozyness of spending time in the tea room at a close friend's house. If you run to Matsuzakaya, you can go through the underground to the subway platform without getting wet.
