Kabukiza in Ginza, Chuo-ku has restaurants on the 2nd and 3rd floors. You can have a meal at Kabuki during the intermission, and in addition to Makunouchi Bento, there are menus such as sushi (* reservations must be made up to 2 days before the theater).
And the restaurant "Hanago" on the third floor is also used as a variety of event spaces. This time, we have participated in a collaboration seminar with Kabukiza Tochikuma University (Chikuma Shobo) held on September 28 (Thursday), so I will briefly tell you the details.
The title is "Food Diary of Lower Samurai".
Based on a diary left in detail by Banshiro Sakai, a member of the Kishu Wakayama Domain (a samurai who was transferred alone) in the Edo period, Mr. Naomi Aoki, who is familiar with drama eras, became a lecturer, `` Edo's surprise eating habits ".
As is said to be "Edo Ichi, Osaka 2, and Kyosan", Edo food, which is gathered from all over the country in sankin kotai and other places, is the most delicious, and "Japanese food", which is currently attracting worldwide attention, seems to have been completed in Edo. Thanks to the rich Edo Bay, the catch of seafood was the highest in Japan.
Furthermore, due to infrastructure development and the large number of fires, craftsmen from all over the country gathered to support the stomach of Edo, which has become a large city with a population of more than 1 million, a vegetable production area was created in the suburbs and the distribution system was improved. Was. Nerima / Kameido radish, Komatsuna from Komatsugawa, Senju / Sunamura / Oi green onions, Taninaka ginger, Meguro bamboo shoots, Fuchu / Sunamura's makuwa melon, etc. ..
In addition, he taught me various knowledge about Edo period food as follows. (The photo above is Dr. Aoki's book)
●A lower-ranking samurai who was transferred alone lived together with a few of them.
●"Nihachi soba" originally started when the price of 16 sentences were fashionable and said "28-16". In addition, there were 27 soba, 29 soba, 37 soba, and 38 soba, but the wide and auspicious eight is preferred, and 28 and 38 (24 sentences) are common. It was in late Tokugawa shogunate that I started to say about the combination of buckwheat flour and bridging. Soba became popular in Edo because there were many watermills in Tamagawajosui, where a large amount of soba could be ground into flour.
●Most of the time, they were drinking hot. Choshi was used after the end of the Tokugawa period, and until then, it was hot with "chirori" (made of metal). When people gathered, it was commonplace to drink sake first.
●The set with legs was for meals, and at the banquet, he used a set without legs (Obon).
●The meat (pork, wild boar, deer, etc.) was also quite familiar. They were also selling meat at the stall. He said, "Yakugui" and said, "I'm eating medicine instead of a beast."
●The bonito was eaten with mustard instead of garlic or ginger.
●Most of the samurai who climbed Edo Castle had lunch boxes and did not eat out. When the samurai ate out, they hid their faces with Tenugui or a hood.
●Even among the townspeople, the upper people seemed to have little eating out.
●It was normal for tempura to be fried at home (because it would be a fire). It was sold at a stall.
●With the spread of oil, night meals have become common (because the lights have become available).
●Tea was a man's pleasure.
●At the store, they were eating and drinking, going up to the parlor or sitting on the porch. There were no tables and chairs in barrels, which were often seen in historical dramas.

And after the lecture, it's time to eat. We had a dish that reproduced a part of the meal of a lower-class samurai that was eaten in Edo in late Tokugawa shogunate. Under the guidance of Dr. Aoki, this dish was specially cooked for this day in a basket (right photo).
A variety of events and study sessions are held every month at Hanago, a restaurant in the Kabukiza Theater. In addition to restaurants, the event has meals and souvenirs, and it seems that there are many events with high satisfaction.
In addition, Hanagoro can be used by the general public as a space for meetings, seminars, social gatherings, and various parties.

Where should I go there? The first thing to worry about is whether there is a nursing room. And whether there is a space where you can relax in a stroller without hesitation. Oh? In Ginza? There may be many people who think that Ginza Terrace can be enjoyed even with babies. ♪ You can take a walk in the lush terrace garden, and in the rest space on the east side of the terrace, like us, you can bring
