 Since its opening in 1935, Tsukiji Market (Tokyo Metropolitan Wholesale Market Tsukiji Market) has been at the core of the distribution of fresh foods such as marine products and fruits and vegetables to this day.

Since logistics by coastal ships and freight railways was still the mainstream, various problems have emerged, such as aging, narrowness, quality, and freshness maintenance equipment that could not fully meet the expectations of the times. On the other hand, I hear that we are also facing structural changes in the distribution system, such as new frequent small-lot delivery, digitization of transactions, computerization, hygiene, environmental response, direct transactions, and online distribution.

Nevertheless, today, about 15,000 market workers work, about 20,000 vehicles enter and exit, and many buyers are busy every day, full of liveliness, and support the kitchen of Tokyo residents.

Above all, it is close to the city center.

Toyosu New Market has a world-standard hygiene management system, so it is clear that the area where traders and the general public can enter and exit is clearly separated, and that the wholesale market is likely to enter in a style like a factory tour Therefore, it may be in the moment that you can easily get a glimpse of the "smart" and "inase" atmosphere.

However, if you visit the wholesale shop after 9:00 am, do not enter the restricted area and be very careful not to hinder traffic or business.

This time, the body paint of the fish shore truck was featured.

There are various designs, such as fish, fish shore marks, and hometown scenery.

There is a personality that can be received with the sense of each owner, and I am interested.

　　　　Viola penny Mickey　　　　　　　Viola Kumarin Pansy Rainbow-colored Sumire Moonlight

 Pansy is a perennial plant of the violet family native to Europe.

The name of Pansy is derived from the French Panse (think), and it is said that the bud turned downward looks like a person in thought.

It blooms for a long time from autumn to May, and has a wide variety of flowers, including the size, color, and bloom of flowers.In addition to single colors, those that bloom beautifully in two colors, those that have eyes called `` blotch '' in the center of the flower There are also things that mix various colors, things that have borders, and varieties that have large wavy.

The small-flowered variety of pansies is generally called viola.

There are many varieties that combine pansies and violas, and I hear that the boundaries are ambiguous.

Viola is also a scientific name that refers to the whole violet plant.

Viola Tricolle is ancestor of Pansy, and its name is three colors in French.

It is said that the Japanese name "Saniro Sumire" was born from here.

It looks like a variety of animal faces, can be parable,

It is also called "human grass", "chal butterfly grass", and "play butterfly grass".

Planting Harumi Triton's “Flower Terrace” and “Green Terrace” and “South Triton Park” containers from the end of October, about 100 new species of fun friends from Pansy Viola have been newly introduced.

How do you look like expressive "comfortable friends"?

　Heaven artists who perform fun performances every time.

This year, Pika (face man) and Kirarin (Shota Yume Magic) sister performed at the Akashicho Disaster Prevention Pier.

Pika manipulated face masks made of drawing paper upside down and down to make the children watching the play laugh.

At the end of the show, he was a very kind little father who played with the children and gave the lost children a chance again.

Mr. Kirarin is magic. The pantomime was also very good.

A large card becomes smaller or smaller

When you put a shredded tissue paper in a bowl with the children, it becomes a udon or something.

Even if the juices of red, blue, and yellow are put together in a paper bag, the juice of the same color was taken out in a glass.

He took out several boxes from empty paper bags and taught me the wonders and fun of magic. The children were delighted.

In addition, I told you that you can see Kirarin on the website called Shotamu Magic.

Here you are. http://www.showtime-magic.com/

　I wanted to listen to Rili Ray's chanson and wanted to listen to it, so I applied over the phone many times in the past, but at the whole museum event in the past, the number of people limited to about 30 people, probably because of the stage I remembered that there was a limit.　This year, when I gave up, it was held at the audiovisual hall on the 5th floor of the Education Center in Akashicho, and the number of viewers was the first 120 people, so if you do not delay the time, you will be able to watch it, I arrived bravely .

According to the official event guide of the entire museum on the day of the event.

"Lili Ray sings the French original chanson in Paris and Japan. The disciples of Tokyo Chanson Academy® also learn and sing chanson in beautiful French that can be used in Paris. Please enjoy "Chanson in Paris in Ginza" such as the familiar chanson "Sanka of Love", "Dering Leaves", "Rose Life", etc. that Japanese love. .

At the start, Lili explained the name and characteristics of the performer's song.

Leader of "Tsukiji Outer Market 1" of Chuo-ku Tourism Association "Town Walking Tour"
Thank you very much.
A total of 12 participants, 9 participants (1 absent), 2 correspondents, and 1 association staff.
The state of this town walking tour will be broadcast on cable TV.
A video cameraman was also accompanied.

This tour will visit four stores in Tsukiji Outer Market, each of which is located.
Listen to the owner's story at the shop, tour, sample, and shop.
I'll do it. It's a 2-hour tour with about 30 minutes including travel time.

At 10 o'clock, we met in front of Lawson at Tsukiji 4-chome intersection, checked for attendance, and left.
The first thing I visited was "Hatoya Noriten".
The owner of the baritone voice excites the place very cheerfully.
Suddenly, the tasting party began. Among them, "Hatoya Nori Store's Yakibara" is
It feels crispy just as it is, but it is also good to taste it in miso soup.
Also, why the tasting almonds are exquisitely delicious and "nuts even in winter!"
He made me laugh.

The next thing that bothered me was "Shoro", famous for egg-yaki.
It is said that this restaurant was originally a sushi restaurant, but the wife is
It became a reputation for having baked egg ware at the storefront, and it shifted to an egg ware shop.
There was an explanation that I did it.
The tour is placed in the kitchen inside the store, and the craftsmen are in front of you.
I was making egg-yaki with no waste.
The egg-yaki I had at the tasting was delicious and tasteful.

The third store is the pickle wholesaler Koyo.
A wide variety of pickles were lined up at the storefront. Beautiful in the eyes
It is chewy and tasteful, and is indispensable for Japanese dining tables.
It feels like it. The shopkeeper who has been engaged in the manufacture and wholesale of pickles for 40 years is full.
It seems that it is a shop that opened an independent store. There is something named "Michiko Kimchi"
When I asked about the origin of the name, the name of the owner's mother was direct biography of the mother.
I hear it's kimchi.

The last thing that bothered me was "Suita Shoten" of kelp merchants.
It is a kelp specialty store trusted by many prestigious restaurants, and in 1892 it was in Osaka.
It is said that it was founded in Tokyo. The word "resilient" is written on Happi.
Tsukiji Outer Market is said to be "anything is available."
It seems that there is only one kelp wholesaler here.
It is said that a food education course will be held to convey the taste of kelp.

When the autumn color deepens, November 7 is "Ritsufu" on the calendar.

The winter preparations for coming soon have begun quietly and steadily.

Although it is the season of "flower withering", this month's attention is that in addition to "fruit plants" as in the last month, "flowers bearing the name of" cherry "" in autumn bloom.

　　　　In addition to the two-seater blooming "Sakura", "Kobukuzakura" (double-flowered)
