Do you know "Everyone House"? Kimono Kobo "Ogiya"-Tsukuda

1. May 25, 2012 08:30

After the middle of May, the number of days of sweating increased. It's also a time to get lost in what to wear, "Is it okay to wear a single coat today?" It's almost time to change clothes. I found a stain in order to clear the line. I usually ask a kimono shop, but this time I decided to visit the "Everyoneya" I found during the walk. I'm going to have a little bit.


At present, June 1 and October 1 are generally designated as "clothing change", but it was originally a custom that began with the Imperial Palace event called "changing" in the Heian period. At that time, the days of April and October were changed from winter costumes to summer costumes (the opposite in October) as the day of changing clothes. This event was limited to the palace, but in the Edo period, the spread of cotton diversified due to the spread of cotton, and the Shogunate set a day for changing clothes four times a year for samurai, and this custom later penetrated among the common people It is said that spring and autumn are lined up, summer mailers, and winter cotton (from "Japanese calendar and annual events").


The word "Shikkai" (Shikkai) gives the impression of "Shikkai Seibutsu" from the character side, but "Everyoneya" is, as the name implies, "Shikkai" (everything) related to kimono (staining, washing, dyeing, etc.). It is listed in the late Edo period folk magazine "Keihan's style in Edo" in "Keiden's style".

100_0576.JPG"Ogiya" I visited this time is a long-established store that was founded in Yotsuya in 1898 and moved to Tsukuda in 1936 and has been operating for more than 100 years. Staining, washing, dyeing, re tailoring, and anything related to kimono is OK. The price list is also posted on the website, and you can ask for an estimate by e-mail, so it is safe for the first time. A "staining classroom" is also held, and it seems that simple staining can be done at home.


If the size or color of the kimono or obi you receive is "a little", why not consult us? I'm looking forward to reviving the "Kimono" sleeping in the chest.

Hachikan Shrine

[Silver] May 24, 2012 08:30

 It is said that Hachikan Shrine has a high probability of winning lottery if you visit and pray. (I can't guarantee true or false) I've been searching many times before and finally found it.

As shown in the photo, the location is enshrined between Ginza Nikko Hotel, "Ginza Felice" and "Sushi restaurant Ukai". It's about 15m from Gallery Shingendo near Shimbashi. 

CIMG0343.jpg

According to the Kyobashi Library's holding materials and the first issue of the public relations magazine "Ginza Hachikan" (published on January 1, 1978), the history of the event was published.

"At the beginning of Genroku, Inari welcomed the divine spirit of Ogami, who was enshrined at Matsu Hirasabei's residence in castle owner, Banshu Akashi Castle, to the present 8-chome. Since then, we have continued to walk along with the history of Ginza." If you are interested, please check the details at Kyobashi Library. Let's take a look around the history of Ginza while expectheart04ing lottery winning.run

YEBIES BAR Ginza 2-chome store is recommended for beer street.

[kimitaku] May 23, 2012 08:30

 YEBIES BAR is recommended for light drinking at Ginza 2-chome.

2TYOUME.jpg Turn the carce at the Ginza 2-chome intersection and turn right at De Beers on the next gas lamp street to see Ebisu Viya Hall.


DEBIASU.jpg

At dusk, go home from work.

I was drawn to the neon of the shop and went down the staircase.

Neon EBISU YORUNO.jpg



  A lot of calm, "Welcome" voice with a smile welcomed me.
It's a very good impression.


 The inside of the store is colored with brown touch. The lighting on the ceiling is also colored with non-sticky brightness. You may be using LEDs.

 

 I'm alone, so I'll sit at the counter.

There is a golden beer server on the right side.

The clerk was handling the order of beer coming one after another, but the glass glowed beautifully in the lighting. 

 

・・... Looking at the clerk who pours beer hard, I reminded me of "Pilsen" in the Kojunsha building in the past.

bi-ru.jpgAt that time, the craftsman who sweated and poured beer was impressive, and when I talked to him, "I'm the only one." "What should I do if I stop?" What a good thing.

 ・・・ "Pilsen" was so atmosphere at the beginning of the store.   But the former "Pilsen" was also astringent and had a special taste. ・・・・・・・・

 

 I ordered an amber ale, and a baked bishop.

Even though it is crowded with customers, the voice of the clerk passes well and you can order with confidence.
The inside of the store is unified in beer color, so it's very calm.

 Beer is here.


burusuto.jpg In addition, Bisbrust, beer with a slightly sweet scent on a thirst throat is also different. It goes well with bisbrust and invites beer.
The second cup is the half & half of Amber Yale and Ebisu stout ordered an Amber x Stout.

 I ordered a Japanese-style caprese,

 The cream cheese is cut, sprinkled with purple leaves, and olive oil is added to the tomatoes.

The mellowness of the cheese stood out with the faint fragrance of Shiso, and in a blink of an eye, the beer became empty.


Master Ebisu.jpgWhen I asked the clerk a lot of stories, he answered with a smile.

 Since it was just opened, he was paying attention to customer service and said that beer would be especially delicious.


  After leaving the store, the Pilsen beer master wondered what he was doing now. 

The Ebisu Beer Hall has a long history, and in 1899, it still retains the same atmosphere as before.


If you are alone with your lover and your family, we recommend a seat next to the server.

Henri Charpentier Ginza

[Silver] May 23, 2012 08:30

Henri Charpantiere is located in Yonaiville, Ginza 2-chome.

I've always wanted to go there for a long time. I remember seeing the painting with the shutters in the early morning closed somewhere, but I can't remember it. When I asked the gallery people I met recently, the author was unhappy, but he said he would be a painter of the Fon Taine Broo. The original work is a work called "Gabriel Destre and his sister". Sisters are in the bathtub and playing, the woman behind is an attendant, sewing celebration items, or fixing the stockings that were once expensive?

It was a bad rain on this day. At the reception, he kept a wet umbrella and received a plastic tag for a deposit certificate. shine I was impressed by what kind of service.

Well, I went inside and had a delicious coffee and dessert. It's a good taste.

The decoration inside the store was wonderful, but there was also a large bookcase. Well, Itoilet wanted to go to a natural phenomenon. Where's the toilet? When I was in trouble, a female clerk pushed me the bookshelf. Also, I was surprised at the gimmick.

P1000022.jpg


Responding; The name of the store is that one patiche accidentally put orange liqueur on dessert while producing dessert, it became a flame (flambe') and became rich in sweetness, and as a result it was delicious, so it became famous It seems to be bearing the name of the person.
 I didn't know the name of the patiche, but I had eaten the dessert on the French island of San Martan in the Caribbean. In addition, I'm looking forward to it.happy01

 

 

Nordic real

[Edo Kenshi] May 22, 2012 16:00

RIMG0020.JPG RIMG0053.JPG  RIMG0029.JPG   

The name of the store is "Nordic artisan". The name of the company is very unique and "only the real thing of North Europe Co., Ltd."

As the name implies, it is an interesting and wonderful shop that really deals only with Scandinavian real things.

There are a lot of Danish things, especially because the president made efforts to land Lego's toys in Japan. Pen cases, back belts, sifs, etc. are at the highest level of leather products, and there are many fans because they do not lose their shape when used or used. There is only a mug made of birch wood bumps in this shop. The more you use them, the better the color and the more you use them, the only Scandinavian real thing made by Scandinavian artisans will become familiar. It is a fun shop at home where the president, wife and son are doing it. It's fun to listen to various stories of Scandinavian, and it's also a study to be able to listen to professional stories that are particular about the making of Scandinavian craftsmen.
