Do you know the country called Uzbekistan?

I've heard the name, but many people don't know what kind of country it is.

Isn't it?

　

Uzbekistan, located in Central Asia, was once a relay point for Silk Road.

While the Orient and Western cultures are mixed, it is exotic for us Japanese.
It is a very friendly country where you can feel a lot in common.

　

　

　

　

Be sure to prepare warm tea at the dining table and eat rice well (prof. Cooking carrots and meat

There are noodles similar to udon (Lageman), and powdered food when baked, steamed, or boiled.

There is a wide variety.

　

　

　

Skewered meat (shasilk), which is a standard for markets and stalls, is similar to yakitori.

　

　

In summer, the people of Uzbekistan who eat watermelon almost every day.

I can't help but have a sense of closeness.

　

　

There is a restaurant in Chuo Ward where you can eat Uzbekistan cuisine.

The name of the shop is ALOHIDDIN (Alohidin).

It is a wine bar in Hatchobori and Nihonbashi.

　

In ALOHIDDIN, in addition to Uzbekistan dishes, Turkish dishes, Turkish dishes.

You can enjoy Russian cuisine with rare wines and beers.

　

The lunch menu starts at 500 yen. When I went around 12 o'clock, my seat was quick.

I'm filled.

　

At the Hatchobori store, chicken oven baked is often eaten in Uzbekistan.

I chose Tabaka (700 yen).

The chicken was juicy and the tomato-flavored sauce was delicious.

　

　

　

At the Nihonbashi store, we had a Turkish dish called Barbo Near (700 yen).

It was delicious with minced meat and red beans stewed with cheese and baked.

　

　

　

The menu of the Hatchobori and Nihonbashi stores is common, with soup and salad at lunch.

Drinks can be added for 100 yen.

　

Traditional Uzbekistan dishes such as Prof, Lageman, and Shasirik are a la carte menu.

I had it. ※Some menus require reservations.

　

Please go to Chuo-ku, where delicious food gathers in 2018 for a "world trip of food".

Kachidokibashi over the Sumida River.
This is Japan's first Futaba jumping bridge completed in 1940 (1940).
In the past, it opened and closed five times a day, and a large ship sailed under it.
Now, the traffic volume of cars has increased, and the bridge has no longer opened at the end of 1970 (1970).

　

　

Kachidokibashi, built with the best of the state-of-the-art technology at that time, has the largest movable branch in Japan.

It has been designated as a national important cultural property as a highly technically complete structure.
　

　

Inside the pier, the facilities as it was at the time when the bridge was opened and closed are preserved, and tour tours are available.

It was carried out, but due to repair work of bridge, from January 2018 to the end of March 2020

The tour will be temporarily suspended due to schedule.

　

　

So this time, I would like to introduce the situation when I participated in the tour in November.

　

First, gather at the museum in Kachidokibashi and participate in the Tokyo Metropolitan Construction Disaster Prevention Volunteer Association.

I went to the bridge for guidance.

　

　

Kachidokibashi has crossed many times, but he knew and didn't know.

I taught you a lot.

　

A traffic light that stopped pedestrians when the bridge opened.

　

　

The brass gold stud was a stop line for pedestrians.

　

　

The center of the bridge. From here, I opened it in the shape of "C".

　

　

The traffic lights lined up vertically toward the river are for ships.

This tower is the driver's room. You can see the bridge from the place where you were actually opening and closing.

I did it. There are four towers on the bridge, and the rest of the driver's room is used as a night shift room, a watch room, and a warehouse room.

I wasn't there.

　

　

After the driver's room, I moved to the machine room in the pier.

Use a safety belt to descend a ladder of about 3.5m vertically into the pier.

The mechanical equipment of the bouncing section left in the machine room was technically improved by the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers in August this year.

It has been selected as a historically significant "mechanical heritage."

　

Please refer to this page for a tour of the driver's room and machine room.

It is not a generation who knows when Kachidokibashi was opening and closing, but explanations while looking closely at the facilities up close.

When I heard it, I saw Kachidokibashi jumping up.

　

The tour inside the pier during the year is full and the reception has been closed.

You can't visit for a while, but the time required to have Kachidokibashi live longer.
That's right.

　

If you are interested in Kachidokibashi, please visit the museum in Kachidokibashi.

This museum is a substation that sent electricity to the motor on the pier to open the bridge.

It was renovated and opened to the public.

　

The power generation facilities that operated the bridge are preserved and displayed, and a model that reproduces the opening and closing of the bridge.

There are plenty of materials such as videos and panels.

I came to Ginza 1-chome.

If you're looking for this pizzeria ISOLA blu (Isolable).

It is a real Naples pizza baked in a firewood kiln and a southern Italian restaurant.

　

　

The firewood kiln is said to have been completed using local materials by inviting craftsmen from Italy.

Even while waiting for the order, pizza was baked one after another from here.

　

　

　

This time, we have PRANZO B for lunch course (Planzo is lunch in Italian)

Thank you very much. It's Napleli pizza you'll have to wait after the salad.

　

Margerita

We used ingredients and sauces inspired by the colors of the Italian flag, green, white and red.

He is the representative of Napleli Pizza.

　

　

1,300 yen (excluding tax) with dolce and cafe.

Amazon, familiar with the online store, delivers a special experience for 10 days only.

This is an event-type bar.

　

The biggest feature of this bar is that there is no menu.

"There are too many types of alcohol we handle, so we can't put it on very much."

　

　

　

Instead of the menu, a dedicated terminal installed in the store is used, and some are shown on the screen.

If you answer the question, you can recommend a drink that is perfect for your current mood.

"I recommend this product to you."

Oh, it's a phrase I've heard somewhere.
You may have encounters with alcohol that you didn't know before.

　

　

　

During the period, daily events that are held every day are also attractive.

Open until next Sunday (October 29).
If you like alcohol or are interested in hot spots, please hurry to Ginza 7-chome.

Tsukiji Honganji holds a lunchtime concert on the last Friday of every month.

　

　

Speaking of the last Friday of every month, it is called Premium Friday from this year.

However, once a month lunchtime concert is a little richer than usual.

It's perfect for spending time.

　

The main hall of Tsukiji Honganji Temple is a pipe organ consisting of 2,000 large and small pipes, which is rare for a temple.

At the lunchtime concert, there is a classical music centering on this pipe organ.

The performance of a Buddhist hymn will be performed.

　

　

Before the concert, Buddhist monk will tell the story.

We recommend that you stay at your seat earlier than the start time (12:20).

　

There are no photos during the performance, but the warm sound echoing in the hall is very good.

It was pleasant.

　

　

Admission is free and anyone can enjoy it without reservation.

The next event will be held at 12:20 on September 29 (Fri).
Please go to Tsukiji for the upcoming Premium Friday.
