Natural vegetable shop Limcrasso Tsukiji Honganji back

[The Rabbit of Tsukuda] September 27, 2016 09:00

Introducing Limcrasso, a greengrocer that only handles vegetables grown with pesticide-free and chemical-free fertilizers that opened in April behind Tsukiji Honganji Temple.

 

When I was looking for a restaurant where I could have lunch slowly near Tsukiji, is it a white wall, purple long Japanese shop curtain, a seemingly Japanese restaurant? A shop that stopped thinking of it. When I went inside as if I was inhaled, colorful vegetables jumped into my eyes.

The mushroom that offered me "Please" was a mushroom with salt and olive oil and a little heat. The mouth is filled with the scent of mushrooms and the juicy umami in no time. Have you ever eaten such a delicious mushroom? Immediately, I was curious about the power of the vegetables at this shop.

The vegetables handled by Limcrasso are zubari, "natural vegetables"!

Natural vegetables are methods that coexist with insects, microorganisms, and grass without using pesticides or herbicides, and grow without giving scientific fertilizer.

 

Some of the vegetables that Limcrasso handles are grown without fertilizer at all. The idea of growing vegetables without fertilizer is from the eyes of a long time. However, natural vegetation and wild grass grow well without fertilizer. In the season, you can enjoy bracken, spring, tarp buds, mizu, etc. That's the same thing.

If you believe in the power of vegetables and prepare the environment, you will grow up well. It is Keitaro Matsushima and Yoko Maruyama of Limcrasso, who connect producers with such ideas and our consumers who want to eat safe and delicious vegetables. Because it is Chuo-ku, where genuine long-established stores gather, I look forward to Mr. Limcrasso, who will deliver the real thing in agriculture.

DG Fish & Shellfish, a restaurant using Rimcrasso's vegetables, is located near the Hamarikyu Garden. It seems good to use it when walking around Hamarikyu. It's your home page.

Ginza Retro Gallery MUSEE (Muse)

[The Rabbit of Tsukuda] September 13, 2016 09:00

Just a short distance from Kyobashi Plaza, where the Chuo-ku Tourism Association office is located, there is "Ginza Retro Gallery MUSEE" in the corner area along Showa-dori.

 

While strolling, the mysteriously attracted the building has a truly Showa retro appearance with beautiful vintage brick-style tiles.

Rikihiro Kawasaki, the representative of the gallery, and Keiko Koga, curator and art history book translator, were able to hear the story immediately.

This building is a 85-year-old building that was completed in 1931 and 1931, and is a rare modern building that remains in Ginza.

In the gallery, special exhibitions are held from time to time, consisting of one hour, two cityscapes, and three art that reflect contemporary world, in order to stir the thinking power of what you see.

 

Until Sunday, September 25, the gallery is holding "1920-30, which can be glimpsed with old photographs in the age of Art Deco". 26 photographs taken by Berennis Abbott, a leading female photographer in the United States, have been selected and explained by Koga. The streets of New York are revived in this building space built at the same time.

There are only a few buildings in the early Showa era that remain in Ginza, such as Okuno Building, Yonei Building, Suzuki Building, and Wako.

 

Mr. Kawasaki, who is from a construction company in Oita and is familiar with architecture, was acquired four years ago, and decided to change from dismantling and preserve it. And the launch of a planning gallery for the future can be said to have gained a greater asset than the cityscape for the central residents.
