Ebiya Art Shop "Ebiya's Aki Festival !!"

[The Monkey] September 25, 2018 12:00

This time, I would like to introduce "Ebiya Art Store" that I wished to appear on my first blog. This shrimp shop was founded in the first year of Yanbao (1673), when it procured tools to the Imperial Palace in Kyoto, it was moved to Nihonbashi in the Meiji era with His Majesty the Emperor's moved to Tokyo. The current owner, Masahiro Miyake, is the ninth generation.

Every year, there is a big sale called "Garakuta City", but this year it will be held with the name changed to "Ebiya Aki Festival !!"

It's last year's worth of money. How many thousand yen is a large bowl with dyeing! There are a wide variety of items such as antiques, furniture, tableware, tea utensils, prints, paintings, Japanese cloth products, etc. collected by the husband around the country. The idea is to want many people to touch antiques on things that have a connection to Nihonbashi. Just looking at it, it's fun, nostalgic, and stylish Aki Festival, please go out to everyone.

Small autumn goldfish

[The Monkey] September 22, 2018 09:00

In the middle of September, at this time of the sign of autumn, the goldfish, a summer tradition in Nihonbashi, was still swimming vigorously. "ECO EDO Nihonbashi 2018", which learns the wisdom of Edo and enjoys coolness with the five senses, Art Aquarium, Goldfish Sweets & Bar, is a festival until 24th of this month.

This year Japanese lantern was collaborating with the gold bird. (The white one is the summer of Nihonbashi, the red one is the summer of the golden bird.) Dai Nippon Peat Chrysanthemum Co., Ltd. (Kanatori) has a Tokyo branch office in Nihonbashi, and the mosquito coil "Kanatori no Swirl" is a pioneer in eco-friendly products for more than 100 years and is still used in many households.

Tsukiji Fish Market

[The Monkey] September 11, 2018 14:00

I went to Tsukiji Market, which has only one month left until the market closes. First of all, prepare your stomach with the morning porridge set meal at a cafe in Tsukiji Honganji. This is named "18 Breakfast", and colorful small plates are lined up on the tray to stimulate your appetite. It is said that 18 is named after Amida's 48th vows, "I will never abandon you."

Among the side dishes, ingredients from Tsukiji Market are used, such as fried Tsukiji matsuro, fried Tsukiji Kibun's fish tofu rags, and Tsukudani, the best sweet kelp in Tsukiji Edo. I tasted the wishes of the Buddha and it was a satisfying breakfast.

Tsukiji Honganji Cafe Tsumugi is open from 8:00 to 21:00 Morning 8:00 to 11:00.

  

Next, we headed through the Tsukiji Fish Bank building built by Chuo-ku in 2016 to the market. Since its opening in 1935, it has been traded for about 3,000 tons of fish and vegetables a day.

In the background of the buildings of Tsukishima and Harumi, commercial cars were coming and going. Eighty-three years have passed since the opening, and aging buildings and equipment and hygiene issues have led to the relocation of Toyosu. Many rats are also inhabited. It has been spread.

After relocating to Toyosu, the site for five Tokyo Domes, it will be used as a depot for the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games, and has not been determined thereafter. It seems that the out-of-office market will remain as it is, and it seems that it will be decided later this month by election whether to make it a Tsukiji Out-of-office market or another name. I hope that Tsukiji Honganji and Hamarikyu will be close to each other, and that sightseeing spots that are popular with foreigners will develop.

The Tsukiji Market will close on October 6 and the relocation to Toyosu Market will be October 11.
