Galerie Tamenaga, which opened in 1969 as a gallery specializing in Western painting, celebrated its 50th anniversary, and the exhibition of Paul Ispiri, which has been introduced since its founding, began on February 14. As Mr. Tamenaga's greeting says, "I couldn't think of the first thing I picked up in the 50th anniversary project except Aizupiri."

Speaking of Aizupiri, there are many light works of warm colors, such as children, airplanes, bicycles, fish, birds, and of course flowers, Santrope, Venice, and I always feel that Aizupiri is good to decorate my house. (I would be even more happy if I could buy it.) There are 40 points lined up and just looking at them makes you feel happy.

In 1969, when the founder Kiyoji Tamenaga opened the gallery, it was only more than 10 years since the Western Art Museum was opened, and Japanese knowledge of West painting was still unavailable. This gallery also introduced Echoard Pali painters who were still unknown in Japan at the time, Modi Liani, Van Dongen, Kissling, Chagall, etc. Please take a look at "Half-century trajectory of painters and painters who have walked together since their founding."

Kyobashi-ya curry at the site of the Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Vegetable Market. Previously, this shop was exclusively for takeout.

I told you that it became a gate store, but the important curry story was not yet.

Kyobashi-ya curry is additive-free and no flour. Even those with gluten allergies can feel safe.

You can enjoy it. This curry is gentle to the body, which doesn't get stomach lean.

　

I specialize in taking out, so I feel like Kyobashi or Ginza e like an office, home, or picnic.

Please enjoy curry under the blue sky of the rear.

　

　

The curry that I like curry more than three meals is common to the curry that I eat repeatedly.

Feeling and disappearing taste. Disappearance taste is a taste that disappears quickly from the mouth without any extra thing left.

It is one of the ideal forms of curry where you can feel the effect of spices.

　

The original spice curry with no miscellaneous taste of Kyobashiya curry can be tasted at other stores.

It's the only one. It's only here, so I want to come back to eat again.

　

This time, I ordered triple curry.

Three kinds of dry Date chicken curry, Tokie curry and keema are available at a time.

　

　

　

The dry Date Chicken Curry, which is completed by mixing several kinds of peppers, is quite exciting. Italy
We use chicken, but the spiciness is not Date. Just the rice goes on.
Recommended for those who don't feel like eating curry if it's not spicy.

　

　

Kyobashi-ya curry, which carefully selects all ingredients from all over the country, has a special rice dish.

The cooking is also best matched to curry. The amount of rice is relatively large, but it's delicious.

It's flattened without difficulty. Women may be reduced.

　

The photo shows a trial S-size rice (200g). It's dry herb on the top.

　

Well, what I'm worried about is Tokie curry. This creative thing. Would you like to see me elsewhere?
I don't know. It is an original menu. The name "Tokie" is made of ingredients.

It is derived from acronym for some chicken, cabbage, and shrimp. Every time a dish is served in a different manner.

I'm happy every time I can do it. The Professional.

　

　

Curry has become a must-have menu for me when the herb is served. The foundation of taste
Chicken, cabbage with a slight texture, and homemade oil with shrimp scents are trinity and whole.
One. However, it does not cause traffic jams. It's a taste.

　

Aim for a single win (?) You can't do it. There is one shrimp of trial S size. It's cute.

　

Keema is good quality pork for shabu-shabu and tomato juice that is selected every time you purchase.

It is not spicy with a deep taste of decisiveness, but umami and refreshing feeling. It's strange after meal

It's clean. If you are not good at spicy curry, please try Kema.

　

　

And as an item of Kyobashi-ya, I would like to introduce this spoon. Western food

It is often used for fish dishes, but it is also perfect for curry. Easy to scoop and teeth

It doesn't hit, so you don't have stress when using it. Accelerate the taste of curry

You'll get it out of your mouth like that.

　　

　

It is on sale as a souvenir of Kyobashi with the store logo. Deserts, not limited to curry

It seems to be compatible with each other, so I personally tried eating tiramisu with this spoon.

It's okay.

　

In addition, there are take-out products such as frozen curry and special curry powder, and outside Chuo-ku.

It is also partially sold at the "Murakaramachikarakan" on the first floor of the Tokyo Kotsu Kaikan in Yurakucho.

　

My husband developed chemical sensitivity, making normal face-to-face business difficult since last year.

Kyobashi-ya curry. At first, he was worried, but it became a take-out specialty store.

So, even those who could not enter the store until now can taste the curry of Kyobashi-ya.

My husband also became less sick, so this business transformation could be called Win-Win.

Sir.

　

Kyobashiya, please keep making delicious and healthy unique curry forever.

Hello. This is a new correspondent, Hanes.
There are seasonal events such as Setsubun and Valentine's Day in February.
If you want to mention another thing, isn't it an "entrance examination"?
As with universities, entrance examinations are also held at private junior high schools.
At the snow festival the other day, I heard a delicate story saying, "How was the test?"

I was unrelated to junior high school exams, but I was wondering, "What is the history (society) problem of junior high school exams?"
When I looked at the issues listed in the reference book (* posted at the end of the article), I looked at the paraparagus.
There is a lot of maniac content that probably won't go to the center exam....
This time, I would like to introduce those related to Chuo-ku from such problems!

Japanese food is attracting attention from around the world as a healthy meal, but sushi is especially popular as a representative of Japanese food along with shabu-shabu. As the name implies, Edomae sushi, which puts fresh seafood on the vinegared rice, was established in the Edo period. The book "Morisada Manga" written in the late Edo period has names such as egg rolls, glue rolls (kanpyo), car shrimp, Kohada, tuna sashimi, shrimp soboro, white fish, congridae, etc.
Sushineta can be obtained in Edo Bay (Tokyo Bay), and since there was no refrigerator at that time, it was mainly made with vinegar like (1) and steamed like shrimp and (2) and cooked. Was. It is now popular (3), but at that time it was a cheap popular fish and was not treated at a prestigious store. It is said that "Toro", which has a lot of fat, is called "(4)" that does not eat cats because it rot quickly. In addition, dark soy sauce that matches seafood was made in Choshi, close to Edo (5).

[Question] For (1) to (3) in the text, select the applicable sushi ingredients from the text, answer (4) the name, and (5) the place name.

How about everyone?
Of course, there are problems that can be answered immediately, but some of them are thought and thought.
Perhaps there was a problem that wanted to say, "I've never heard that." I was there!

The answer you are worried about...
①Kohada 2 congridae 3 tuna 4 cats straddling 5 Noda

I can't believe it now, but
Today's popular tuna and toro were treated as lower fish (lower fish) and poor fish in the Edo period.


(Now tuna with even a high-class image)

On the other hand, Kohada is considered the most stylish.
He said, "If you don't eat Kohada's fat, you're not a sushi passerman, you're not an Edo kid, rather than a passerman."
If you would like to know more details, please refer to the following URL.

④It seems that "cat tattogi" comes from a fish that doesn't even eat even a cat who likes fish, and has a bad taste enough to pass over.
Even if it's a joke, I'd like to verify it personally lol

Q1 The figure on the next page depicts a person studying Dutch studies mimicking a Dutchman in Dejima and celebrating the New Year of the solar calendar (so-called "Netherlands New Year"). When is this? Choose the correct one from A to D and answer it with symbols.
※Please see here (link to Waseda University Library website) for details.

A. Around 1650 Around 1700 Around 1800 e. around 1850

Question 2 Choose the correct one from A to D as a combination of X and Y errors about this Dutch New Year, and answer it with symbols.
X. The Dutch New Year is about a month later than the New Year celebrated by the general public at that time.
Y. At the party to celebrate the Dutch New Year, it can be seen from the diagram that there are West tableware on the table and that people sitting in chairs wear kimono.

A. X - positive Y - positive. X - positive Y - error　
C. X - Error Y - Correct E. X - Y - Miscellaneous

---

This is a problem with big hints hidden in the text and diagrams.
Even if you first heard about the Dutch New Year, I think it's probably a problem that can be solved.

Let's present the answer!
Q1: C Question 2: D
Question 1 is that Dutch studies matured around 1800 because it is a chemical culture.
X in question 2 is incorrect because November 11, 1794 was changed to New Year (January 1, 1795).
Y in question 2 is wrong because a person sitting in a chair is wearing clothes.

As you can see, read the "Description" in the figure on the Waseda University Library website.
This Dutch New Year's feast was located in Mizutanicho, Kyobashi Ward at the time.
The event was held at Shibarando, the home and private school of Gentaku Otsuki (a Dutch scholar who is also known as a person who introduced beer to Japan during isolation).
Some of the invitees shown in the figure include Genpaku Sugita and his disciples.
A few years after returning from Russia, there is Kotayu Daikokuya (a man who holds paper and feather pen in front of tokonoma and writes Kiril language).
This figure, which shows such a situation, has become an important cultural property as a valuable document depicting the first Dutch New Year in Edo.

However, when the Dutch New Year began to be celebrated in Edo, a foreign country....
Did the Federal Republic of Nederland itself exist in the Netherlands?...
Please refer to the reference for details of history and culture related to such world history.

From 22:00 to 24:00, one of the standard lighting "Nobori" is lit.

In addition to "CHOCOLATE CARNIVAL", "Special DJ events" are held at Tenbo Deck Floor 350.

Chocolate demand for this season, which is said to account for more than 10% of the annual consumption, is added to "honmei," "in-law," "friend," and "reverse." There seem to be a variety of "me" and "reward" chocolates for myself, but the marriage with alcohol such as "bitter chocolate x black beer", "citrus chocolate x sparkling wine", "ganash x red wine", "milk chocolate x Nigori sake" is also Otsu.

From Chuo-ohashi Bridge, you can see a colorful and unique shine reminiscent of Assorted Choco.

In December of last year, a "medicine monument" was installed on the sidewalk at 2-1 Nihonbashi Honmachi (near the entrance of Takeda Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.).

When I visited the secretariat of the Tokyo Pharmaceutical Affairs Association, this monument was set up by the "5 Rotary Clubs in the Nihonbashi Area and the Tokyo Pharmaceutical Association", and widely conveys the history of the drug wholesale district that originated in Nihonbashi during the Edo period to future generations. It was donated to Chuo-ku for the purpose of contributing to the administration of cultural properties in Chuo-ku. It was said that the design at the top of the monument was based on an illustration of the "Edo Famous Zoukai" published in the Edo period (Honmachi Pharmaceutical Shop).

Nihonbashi Honmachi is an area where drug wholesalers have gathered and developed since the Edo period, and many pharmaceutical companies are still gathering.
