This is the rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as an approach.

　

I would like to introduce the Nihonbashi Main Store of Bunmeido, which was reopened on February 4, this year.

The history and background of the long-established Bunmeido has already been written several times on this blog, so I will omit it here.

　

About Mr. Bunmeido, Rozmari's episode

◎　A long time ago, I often used Bunmeido's castella, which was on the premises of Kiyose Station in Tokyo at the time, as a gift to customers at the expense of work.

◎　In recent years, I went to Bunmeido's Musashimurayama Plant near my home and the affiliated subsidiary "Ichibankan" to buy "Kamadashi Castella (fresh and fluffy castella cutout)" and cookies and cakes. .

　

From here, I would like to talk to the manager of the Hoshino Main Store.

Castella "Kisho"

It is a gem for those who love castella, made by selected raw materials such as crow bone eggs and Wasanbon sugar and kneaded technology.

Among Bunmeido, it is sold only here at Nihonbashi Main Store and Shinjuku Main Store.

　

Nihonbashi Castella

On this day of the interview, it was a pattern and goldfish pattern of the adjacent COREDO Nihonbashi Muromachi aquarium. It's about to be the autumn maple pattern.

　

Special preparation

Special castella with letters and patterns, Mikasayama, and red and white buns are said to have received the support of customers. In addition to the default design, you can also include the original design.

Castella cools down a day, draws letters and pictures with chocolate, and Mt. Mikasa is branded.

I'll finish it at the factory. It takes about a week from order to delivery.

For orders and consultations, please contact Nihonbashi Main Store at 03-3241-0002.

　

Gallery

There is a small gallery in the Nihonbashi Main Store and Cafe.

As a representative example, a Japanese painter famous for beauty paintings, Shinsui Ito (Meiji 31-Showa 47) painter "Moon no Echi" (<Monday> of Setsuki Hana trilogy) [Earlier picture] Is posted all year round. It seems that they are sometimes lent to the Shinsui Ito exhibition. Other works may change depending on the month.

　

BUNMEIDO CAFE

The Nihonbashi Main Store has a "BUNMUIDO CAFE" where you can enjoy cafes and meals.

How about using it for lunch?

０３－３２４５－０００２

Normally, business hours are from 9:30 to 23:00, but business hours and regular holidays are subject to change depending on the season, so please check the store or website.

　

Signboard

The foreheaded signboard displayed in the store is also handwritten by Shinsui Ito.

It has been posted since the reopening of February this year.

Until then, he was sleeping in the warehouse.

　

Japanese shop curtain and Other Books of Civilization Hall

The logo of the historic civilization hall is based on the book of sculptor Fumio Asakura (Meiji 16-Showa 39).

Many of his works called "Rodan of the Orient" are famous, but as you all know, Shigenobu Okuma on Waseda University campus and Kazuo Hatoyama and Haruko statues at Hatoyama Hall in Bunkyo-ku.

By the way, the person in the lower left of Japanese shop curtain is manager Hoshino.

It is rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as a catchphrase.

　

Today, we visited Kiya Co., Ltd. and Nihonbashi Kiya Honten. Thank you for taking care of Mr. Kaneko.

　

Kiya was founded in 1792 (Kansei 4) and has a history of 224 years this year, and is a long-established manufacturing and sales of hardware such as blades.

　

The first Isuke Kato was separated from the main family's Kiya and became independent, and the current president Kinya Kato is the ninth generation.

It has been running in Nihonbashi Muromachi since its founding.

Since its opening in 2010 (Heisei 22) in COREDO Muromachi 1.

When the Edo Shogunate was opened, Kubei Hayashi, the first generation of Honke Kiya, descended to Edo from a medicinal merchant in Osaka, at the invitation of Shogun Ieyasu Tokugawa.

　

It is said that Osaka, Edo, and Hayashiya were divided into two, and that the kanji "forest" and "Kiya" were referred to as "Kiya".

　

Kiya-san, about 10 years after its opening, is also depicted in Kidai Shoran, a emakimono in the Edo period.

　

Well, let's introduce the product. There are many gems that I would like to introduce, but from Rosmari's best choice.

　

KIYA nail clipper

　

An absolute popular product released in 1987. The shape has not changed since the release.

　

The center is small (756 yen including tax). The right is large (1,296 yen including tax). On the left is gold (1,296 yen including tax).

The picture below it is currently three small pieces of Rosmali's house. The center is 10 years old, but it is still very sharp.

A famous culinary critic has been advocating this nail clipper in lectures, newspapers and magazines for a long time, and has proclaimed its favorite use. "Cookers are fingertips," he said. Rosmari also listened to a lecture about 10 years ago and purchased one on the spot.

The feature is that the blade part is made of steel. It is sharper than others and has a different blade holding. It is a gem with a good feeling of cutting.

Perfect as a gift. Lotsmari also give a few gifts to relatives. I'm very pleased. "Large" is good for older people.

　

Danjuro, a kitchen knife

It has been a trademark since the Meiji and Taisho eras. It seems that a good relationship with the old Kabuki actor Danjuro Ichikawa in the same Nihonbashi area was built. You can also use the "Danjuro" mark.

The sickle-shaped kitchen knife (about 180mm blade crossing) in the center is 34,560 yen including tax. The lower petty knife, the so-called fruit knife (about 120 mm across the blade), is 21,060 yen including tax. Since it is a special steel, it has a good blade and is easy to maintain. This product is made of steel and stainless steel.

　

Danjuro of cutting scissors

　

There is also "Danjuro" in judgment scissors.

The Danjuro brand is named as a good product with production capacity.

Portable cooking scissors

　

It's a hidden selling product.

Use when meat is hard to cut off on the go.

It is convenient without damaging the dishes.

To make it easy to use, the blade is short and the blade surface is jagged.

　

Notice 1

On the exciting tour “Long-established Course Part 1” (September 27, November 17) hosted by the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, Kiya-san is a visit destination. Unfortunately, Rosmali doesn't participate.

　

Notice No. 2

At the Fukumi Festival-Cored Autumn Festival-held from September 28 (Wed) to November 13 (Sun), Kiya will sell a nail cut set (large / small) as a planned product. The price is 2052 yen including tax. It's cute and packaged. By the way, "Fuku" of the Fukumi Festival is the meaning of the adjacent Fukutoku Shrine.
