A fashion wig specialty store has opened in Ginza 5-chome.

I would like to introduce it because it is a shop where many products are lined up.

Michiko Sekiguchi Exhibition From November 29 (Mon) to December 4 (Sat) walnut gallery

[Yurikamome] Nov. 25, 2010 13:00

There are many galleries in Ginza, but this is an exhibition in a gallery with a small and calm atmosphere.

This work is based on the theme of "rose flowers" and "Mimosa flowers" in the garden that Michiko Sekiguchi grew up on his own.

The work is full of tenderness and gives courage even when you are depressed.

Until now, we have donated your own works to hospitals and clinics, so I think that the waiting room has eased the feelings of patients.

It's an exhibition like her.

On the way back to Ginza ... Please take a look. It's free.

Do you know BROWN's "Ruretto"? A 50-year cake bakery shop

[Yurikamome] Nov. 21, 2010 21:55

The sweets called "Ruretto" given by a friend were delicious and I visited the store.

Routtto Roulette ... in French "Cute Kuruma"

It is a pie confectionery characterized by the crisp texture, the flavor of butter that spreads as you chew, and the aroma of caramel.

In 1960, it was devised by the predecessor and passed down for more than 50 years, and it is a very popular snack with customers with a commitment that took time and effort.

     There are various types other than "Ruretto" in the center of the photo below.

     The left end is a work associated with a cigar.

 It was just before noon, so there were a lot of freshly baked bread and the shop was full of customers.  

           2010_1118 Photo 0115 BROWN products 1.JPG     

 

As shown in the menu below, tuna, mushrooms, mentai, shrimp, chikuwa, strawberries, and walnuts are baked in bread.

I bought walnuts and curry bread, but I was happy with the aroma and warmth of the bread ... I was thrilled ...

It was much more delicious than a freshly baked bakery near my house.

Of course, "I bought Routtto, too.

I wish this kind of shop could be nearby.

The photo below shows the first and second generation of your shop.

I thought, "I'm enviable" that the white hat and clothes are well-suited and that they are doing a shop with parents and children.

The predecessor lived in his current location at the end of the war, so at that time Tokyo was a burnt field, so he was in Hatchobori and heard a microphone at Tokyo Station.

I could see Eitai Bridge in the same place.

At the end of the war, he said, "I was a fifth grader in elementary school."

Tsukudatendaiko Ikuchizoson and Daiginko

[Yurikamome] Nov. 21, 2010 10:17

A 3-minute walk from Tsukishima Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line and Toei Oedo Line, a large ginkgo tree extends from the roof to the heavens. It's very close to Tsukuda Nami-Inari.

 It is reported that Ueno Kanei-ji Temple and Sutokuin Shrine, who lived in the middle of the Edo period, worshiped the Jizo Bodhisattva deeply and drew the statue of Jizo himself and encouraged the construction of Jizo at temples in Edo Prefecture.

It's the appearance of guardian of children and travelers indoors.

I brought my hand to the main god and took a picture.

It's Jizo Bodhisattva.

 There is a ginkgo tree trunk in the back, and in front of it, there is such a big two.

This ginkgo tree goes out over the roof and grows greatly.

It seems that there was a story about the inhabitants' tangible cultural property ..., but he declined to grow up with everyone in the local nature.

So there is no detailed information about "Ginkgo".

I looked up from the gap and took a picture.

Lunch lunch at Nihonbashi Benmatsu Sohonten

[Yurikamome] Nov. 19, 2010 17:00

flag  Nihonbashi Benmatsu Sohonten's "lunch lunch box" will end on November 26 due to the relocation of the factory.

typhoonThere are two types, ¥500.-and ¥600.-, but on the way home, the contents come to your eyes on the heavy weight and your heart gets excited as soon as you open the lid.

I'm going to buy it once or twice by the twenty-sixth.

There is also an assortment of only "side dishes", and the number is limited from around 11:30, so recently around 11:30, "Benmatsu Bento Fan" has come to gather at stores.

You can buy a long-established lunch box at such a cheap price later on 4.5 days.

 house The "lunch lunch" ends on November 26, but you can buy the "lunch box" and "folding" of Kyogi, which have been going on for a long time, at Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Department Store and other department stores.   typhoon

From Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, Chuo-ohashi Bridge, Eitai Bridge, Sky Tree

[Yurikamome] Nov. 19, 2010 12:30

 Last time, I took pictures of Eitai Bridge and Sky Tree from Chuo-ohashi Bridge, but this time I took pictures of Eitai Bridge and Sky Tree beyond Chuo-ohashi Bridge from Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge.

Find the Eitai Bridge, too ...

I forget the hot summer in winter and forget the hot summer, and the stable Koharu weather makes me want to walk in Chuo-ku.
