New Year's visit to Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods and Ningyocho delicious places and long-established stores

[wombat] January 24, 2018 09:00

 On January 7th (Saturday), I went around Nihonbashi Seven Lucky Gods and walked around Ningyocho.

 But the sun was bad~~~~~

 It's Saturday and Dog Day, even better weather~~~

 Every Seven Lucky Gods has a long line~~~

 Only three people worshiped the Seven Lucky Gods, the rest from afar~

 

 In the afternoon, we have a special menu of Edoji, a very delicious place.

 After that, I went on a social tour at a long-established doll wareitakuraya.

Lunch is grilled chicken rice bowl. In addition to this, there are 3 servings, 2 fried chicken, and pickles. It is common to eat with plenty of Shichimi Tang.

It is characterized by Seven Lucky Gods's face shape, which is made from flour as the main ingredient, and is filled with bean paste.

With a single face type, six dolls (Hobukuro-son, Benzaiten, Ebisu, Bishamon, Daikoku, Kotobukijin) are made.

   So why is it the Seven Lucky Gods?

   The answer is Seven Lucky Gods with the smile of the presenter.

Numerous molds (kote) are hung on the wall.

Before the war, it was a whole Seven Lucky Gods mold, but after the war it changed to a face-only mold, and it seems to have reached the present day.

A lot of people are lining up and coming to buy.
