"nel CRAFT CHOCOLATE TOKYO" Open in HAMACHO HOTEL!

[Edamame] February 23, 2019 09:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.
 

Today, February 15, 2019.

A new type of hotel with rental housing

"HAMACHO HOTEL" has opened!

DSC_5174-1.jpg

The state of the building is being built as an edamame of neighboring residents.

I was looking forward to seeing you every day.

What is the interest of local residents?

"What kind of good shop can I have?"

That's right. There will definitely be a delicious restaurant in the hotel.

In many cases, high-quality confectioneries are also included.

I'm looking forward to it.
 

So, first of all, today is the first day of the opening.

It was newly opened in the hotel.

I visited "nel CRAFT CHOCOLATE TOKYO".

DSC_5170-1.jpg

The entrance facing the road has sides and stairs that do not face the main street.

Considering easy-to-understand and barrier-free routes

It might be better to enter from the front entrance of the hotel facing Kiyosubashi-dori.

DSC_5173-1.jpg

Enter the hotel entrance and proceed to the back of your right and you will be able to arrive at the store properly.

 

Well, in the shop right away.

DSC_5171-1.jpg

There are various kinds of tablet chocolates right next to the entrance.

It was displayed with cacao.

"Ghana", "Venezuela", "Bunchapbetonam", etc.

There are a lot of chocolates with the name of the cacao production area.

The percentage of cacao seems to be different, and it seems fun to compare eating.
 

DSC_5172-1.jpg

The chocolate bonbon was also displayed here.

DSC_5177-1.jpg

Is it easier to understand the shape of the picture in the pamphlet?

It was made of cacao made by contract farmers in Vietnam

In addition to "Bunchapbentonam"

It is only made from special ingredients such as "Tamba Black Bean Kinako" and "Yuzu".

 
It is said that the name of the shop "nel" comes from "kneading".

"Delivering chocolate kneaded with carefully selected materials and craftsmanship with true heart."

You're making it with that feeling.

Chef Chocolatier goes to the production area by himself

It contains carefully selected cacao beans and ingredients selected from producers.

Chocolate completed with high technology, incorporating ingredients unique to Japan.

All of them make you feel the high quality.
 

In addition, "late citrus peel" using Amakusa late citrus from Kumamoto and

"Chocola Show (Chocolate Drink)" etc.

All of them are attractive, and they're in trouble with their eyes.

This is what I bought today.

DSC_5175-1.jpg

"Nihonbashi hamachoco" (1080 yen including tax).

It's in your mouth! !

It was a creamy and delicious chocolate with a smooth mouthfeel.

Is there a little liqueur in it? That's what you say

I felt soft later.

(So, this is not a snack of my daughter Azuki (3 years old)

 It will be a snack at midnight for mother Edamame.)

 
There are special items that can only be obtained here.

It seems that you will be pleased when you want to make souvenirs somewhere in the future.

As a local resident, I will continue to take care of you.

Let's compare the eating of tablets this time?

Or would you like to try the Chocolat Show in the cold season?

I'm looking forward to seeing you next time.

And ... a restaurant in the hotel that I haven't visited yet.

I was thrilled to see you in the future.

One of the correspondents' reflection meeting Part 3-From the 11th Chuo-ku sightseeing test-

[Edamame] February 20, 2019 18:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

Last time → /archive/2019/02/11-15.html

Two times before → /archive/2019/02/11-14.html

And continue to do so.

From the "11th Chuo-ku Tourism Certification" conducted on February 3 (Sun)

I would like to take up the problem you care about.

 
Q26 Near the north entrance of Tsukiji's National Cancer Center is related to the Navy.

There are two monuments lined up.

One is the stone monument of "Navy Military Medical School Ruins", but the name of the other monument is

Which of the following is it?

A. The birthplace of the Navy. The ruins of the warship training center U. Monument of Naval Accounting School The site of the Naval Army Dormitory
 

≪An excuse for Edamame≫

Actually ... When I was studying to become a correspondent (end of 2016)

It seems that the area near the north entrance of the National Cancer Center was under construction.

I couldn't see the two monuments here ...

And at that time, I put azuki (one and a half years old at that time)

Because I was traveling around the city while pushing a stroller

I don't have the courage to go into a dangerous place.

※Another one of my tsukkomi※

I should have seen exactly where there is other than the right choice.

It must have been done by the erasing method!
 

・・Yeah. Reflection.

But this is "Go to Tsukiji again!"

Let's go, thinking that it is God's word.

 

A. The birthplace of the Navy

・・While saying, this is the only one in the past image.

The birthplace of the Navy was the so-called Tsukiji "in-place market".

Currently, the market is being demolished and entry is prohibited.

DSC_2450-1.jpg

That's why I miss you (?) It's an image.

In the precincts of "Mizu Shrine" located in the market

DSC_2451-1.jpg

There was a monument written in large letters "Hagiyama".

This place was originally the lower house of Sadanobu Matsudaira.

In the Meiji era, the Ministry of Naval was placed here.

The garden "Yuonen" (frequently!) In artificial hill

The name of "Hagiyama" is derived from the establishment of the "Navy Sir Flag".

・・・ Obviously, it's not near the "North Entrance of Cancer Center".

 

B. The ruins of the warship training center

There are no monuments left here.

There is a signboard of the Chuo-ku Board of Education.

DSC_5164-1.jpg

In 1857, the Shogunate aimed at flagship books and family members in the Kobusho in Tsukiji.

Founded the Warship Professor's Office.

Later, it was renamed "Warship Training Center".

It's also known that Kaishu Katsu was the president.

Here's the place.

Warship training center jpg

It is a sidewalk along Harumi-dori St., just off the intersection of Tsukiji 6-chome.

That's why this seems to be different.

By the way ... "The" warship training center "is in the middle of such land? ?』 So

Some of you may think about it.

Around the end of the Tokugawa period, reclaiming the Tsukishima and Kachidoki areas, which are opposite banks across Kachidokibashi, has not begun.

The sea was spreading in front of Tsukiji's eyes.

So there was no wonder to "manipulate" a "warship".
 

C. Monument of Naval Accounting School

B. From the information board of the "Warship Training Center Ruins"

Let's walk straight towards Kachidokibashi.

DSC_5166-1.jpg

At the base of Kachidokibashi is this "Navy Accounting School Monument".

It began in 1874 when the Naval Accounting School Building was established on Shiba.

It was relocated to the former site of Yuonen in 1888.

It became the name of the Navy Accounting School in 1907 and relocated to a corner of Tsukiji in 1932.

Then, in September 1945, with the dismantling of the Navy after the war, the history of 70 years ended.

However, due to the development of human resources who are well-versed in accounting.

It seems that many people who were active even after the war have been produced.

By the way, the "Kachidokibashi Museum" is located next to it.

(Closed on Monday, Wednesday and Sunday.)

Kachidokibashi has a structure that can be opened and closed.

It was made by renovating a substations made for opening and closing.

You can see materials and models related to the bridge.

 

D. The site of the Naval Army Dormitory

That's why "E. is correct by erasing method!" ・It's not.

Let's go to see the "North Entrance of Cancer Center" properly.

It's just on the other side of Shin-ohashi-dori St., so it's a bit far away.

I saw it after a long time ...

DSC_5155-1.jpg

The construction was over and it was paved beautifully!

And what you are looking for is on the right side of the sidewalk.

DSC_5153-1.jpg

The naval dormitory toes and the naval medicine school toes are two.

It was in the planting side by side.

The name of the Navy Dormitory was born in 1870 (1870).

The predecessor is A. The "warship training center" was an option.

In 1876 (1876), it was further renamed the Naval Academy.

It was here until 1888 (1888), when it moved to Etajima, near the guardian office of Kure, Hiroshima.

In addition, the site seems to have been used as "Navy University School".

And the road that Emperor Meiji had taken to go to this naval school

It is "Miyuki-dori" that still retains its name in Ginza today.

Previously, a wonderful senior correspondent "Jimini ☆ Cricket" was a wonderful senior correspondent.

There are some articles that have been posted, so please refer to them as well.

/archive/2017/04/post-4240.html

I've read this article before.

After all, it was a problem that I had to solve. It's a great reflection.

 

Walking around the city of Tsukiji, which has many historical sites related to the Navy.

Of course, besides that

DSC_5152-1.jpg

It is Tsukiji Honganji Temple

DSC_5161-1.jpg

Even though it was a weekday afternoon, it was still very busy.

There are a lot of things to see.

By the way, as for information with children ...

There is a clean, spacious and easy-to-use multipurpose toilet (of course there is a diaper changing table).

The existence of "Tsukiji Fish Bank" is very helpful.

Even small children can go out with peace of mind.

Please come and visit us.

 

 

One of the correspondents' reflection meeting Part 2-From the 11th Chuo-ku sightseeing test-

[Edamame] February 16, 2019 12:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

Continuing from the previous time

/archive/2019/02/11-14.html

From the "11th Chuo-ku Tourism Certification" conducted on February 3

I would like to pick up the problem that Edamame was concerned about.


Q50 The shipping bridge was a bridge over the maple river.

Because the river was reclaimed and turned into a highway, the bridge was removed.

At present, only two main pillars are left.

One main pillar is engraved with the word "Kayunhashi".

Which of the following characters are engraved on the other main pillar?

A. I'm gonna Kaiunbashi Bridge U. Sakamoto-cho e. June 2,535 BC


To excuse ...

Surely, just before I became a correspondent,

When I was walking around Chuo-ku with an official textbook in my hand to study for the exam

The shipping bridge was definitely coming.

Yeah.

DSC_5130-1.jpg

Despite the fact that the text says "two main pillars" properly.

This is the main pillar of the person who wrote "Kayunhashi"

DSC_5131-1.jpg

I was satisfied when I saw the explanation board of the Board of Education. Maybe.

That's why I don't have a memory of "another main pillar" ...

※In the official text, there is also a description of "what is written".

 Let's read and study properly.


So why didn't you notice it?

Map of Shipping Bridges. jpg

↑The main pillar and information board of "Kayunhashi" written with a large red mark

Former riverbank (?) On the other side of the highway, which was former maple river. For you

There was "the other main pillar." (Aomaru on the map)

So it was hidden behind the elevated highway,

I wasn't able to recognize the existence properly.

So let's go see it with you.



The correct answer is ...

DSC_5132-1.jpg

Here you.

D. June 2,535 BC

I did it!

By the way, what is "2535 BC"?

It was due to the Imperial Ki, whose first year was the throne of Emperor Jimmu.

2535 = 1875 = 1875 = 1875 AD.

It was that year when the shipping bridge was replaced with an arched stone bridge.


It is close to the main pillar of "June 2,535 BC" ...

DSC_5133-1.jpg

There is the Mizuho Bank Kabuto-cho Branch.

That's right. Here is

DSC_5136-1.jpg

It's the birthplace of the bank.

In 1873, the "Daiichi National Bank" was established here.

During the Civilization and enlightenment period, there was also a new and wonderful Western-style bank.

It has become the capital of Tokyo's financial center.

It seems that this neighborhood has become a "new famous place in Tokyo".


Electronic trading of stocks has become the mainstream.

There is no so-called "place standing"

It is said that Kabuto-cho is no longer bustling than before.

However, it is also an area adjacent to Nihonbashi.

It seems that the redevelopment plan of the city is gradually being promoted.

I would like to look forward to the appearance of Kabuto-cho, which will become a new attraction in Tokyo again.

 

 

One of the correspondents' reflection meeting Part 1-From the 11th Chuo-ku sightseeing test-

[Edamame] February 10, 2019 12:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

On February 3 (Sun), the 11th Chuo-ku Tourism Certification was held.

Although I applied for it, I realized that there was an extreme lack of preparation.

"Isn't it better to stop receiving it?"

I felt like I heard the devil's whisper

"It's meaningful to participate!" He inspired himself, saying, "It's meaningful to participate!", And the day before he violently solved the past questions and challenged it.

And now it's over.

I don't think it's good if I finish it with "I'm over, okay?"

What you care about from the lost or wrong problems?

I would like to focus on some of them.

That's why please associate with the "Edamame One Remorse Meeting" series for a while.


First of all, it is a question from this year's theme problem "Heisei no Chuo-ku".

Question 5 Of the following buildings in Chuo-ku, they were designated as important national cultural properties.

   Which of the following is not Heisei?

A. Kachidokibashi A. Nihonbashi U.S. Mitsui Main Building E. Main Building of the Bank of Japan


・・To be honest, I wonder if there is such a point! It was a big sweat.

It is true that the historical value of modern buildings has been recognized as a matter of recent years.

In this way, all of them have the impression that they have been certified in Heisei (sweat like a waterfall).

That's why I removed it in the actual production.

I'll check it out.


A. Kachidokibashi

DSC_4240-1.jpg

This Kachidokibashi is often used for the certification.

It was called "the best movable bridge in the Orient" and originally jumped five times a day.

Currently, opening and closing is suspended due to a decrease in the volume of ship operations.

Yeah.

Based on evaluation of "highly technically completed structure with the largest movable branch in Japan", etc.

It was designated as a national important cultural property in June 2007! ! !

So this is not the answer.

B. Nihonbashi

DSC_5125-1.jpg

Nihonbashi, where the current bridge was built in 1911 (Meiji 44).

It's a place where there's no shortage of topics.

There are squares, docks and docks in the four Hashizume.

There's also a tourist information center.

However, the bridge itself that has exceeded the 100th anniversary of the bridge is also a frequent problem and must be checked.

The lion in the photo symbolizes "protection of Tokyo City" (frequency problem).

So Nihonbashi was designated as an Important Cultural Property in May 1999! !

That's why this is not the answer.

C. Mitsui Main Building

DSC_5118-1.jpg

As you can see from the photo, the order column of "Colint type (which is frequent here)" is the order column.

The Mitsui Main Building is impressive.

The building was completed in 1929 as an office building for major Mitsui companies.

It seems that there is a large safe with a circular door weighing 50 tons underground.

(This is also questioned in the past.)

So, the Mitsui Main Building was designated as an Important Cultural Property in December 1998! !

So this is not the answer.

D. Main Building of the Bank of Japan

DSC_5139-1.jpg

・・・ Don't say, "E is answered by the erasure method!"

In 1882, the Bank of Japan began its operations as a central bank in Japan.

I used the building of the Hokkaido Pioneering Envoy Tokyo branch office located under the Eitai Bridge.

Your design is Josaiah Condor. I'm a foreigner who was in charge of the design of Kanarukan.

(This is also a point that has been frequently asked for a long time.)

However, the facilities were narrow and the transportation was poor.

In Meiji 29 (1896), a new building was built and relocated.

This is the current main building of the Bank of Japan head office in Nihonbashi Honishi-cho, where "Koza" was located in the Edo period.

Kingo Tatsuno was in charge of the design. He's a disciple of Condor.

The model was the Belgian central bank (this has also been questioned in the past).

The design style is "Neo Baroque architecture" that combines the Baroque style and the Renaissance style.

About half of the building was burned down by the Great Kanto Earthquake, but repairs were made three years later.

An extension was made in the early Showa period, and it continues to this day.

And ... It was designated as an important cultural property in 1974! ! !!

Surprisingly, it was a long time before the other three.

So the correct answer was "E. The main building of the Bank of Japan Main Store"!


There are also many interesting exhibits at the "Mont Museum" right opposite the main building of the Bank of Japan.

After reviewing the test, why don't you take a walk around here? ?

"Edo Sakura-dori St.", where senior correspondent "CAM" was used the other day.

/archive/2019/02/11-12.html

DSC_5116-1.jpg

It is a road that passes from the main building of the Bank of Japan to Choredo Muromachi.

This also includes "Depa Underground" at Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store.

It's also perfect for a walk while looking for something delicious.

It is especially recommended because the row of cherry blossom trees is beautiful as the name suggests.
