There is a delicious duck restaurant about 50m after entering the alley between Kyobashi Post Office and Togama. The name of the restaurant is "Kamotei".

Lunch is called Lunch Trio, and there are "Duck Mushroom Soba", "Duck Seiro Soba", and "Goshikidon". 980 yen each. I ordered Goshiki-don. Duck meat, eringi, green onions, shiitake mushrooms, eggplants, blue peppers, etc. are boiled in a sukiyaki style, and all-purpose green onions are placed in the corner to color them. This was really delicious.

From 6:00 in the evening, "Kamotei Specialty, famous sake and sake appetizers 1,280 yen", and dinner is a duck course dish of 4,000 yen and 6,000 yen. I enjoyed the “Kamotei Specialty, Meishu and Sake Appetizers 1,280 yen” on another day, so if you report it, please tell me

The drink of the set is Ok for beer and sake. The sashimi is made with silkworm beans and tanuta (this is an exquisite taste!) It's a potato salad of duck and Seri, and one bottle of duck skewers. It is recommended if you drink a substitute sake and don't stay for a total of ¥1,880happy01, or if you're hooking quickly. Of course, try the official course!

My granddaughter was born and I was looking for a gift to return. Pay attention to the selection, as it is a memorable item that will return the amount you receive with the appropriate item.

Gallery Night Party 2012

[Silver] June 15, 2012 14:00

The gallery's night party began in 2004 and this is the eighth time this year. This is a one-night art event by the gallery from Ginza 5-chome to 8-chome. 

I would like to report that I participated in a gallery tour on June 8.

Is it a special business trip from London to a night party in Ginza on display? It was also shown.

They prepared champagne and delicious canape for wine.

Nichido Gallery purchased a book written by Tokushichi Hasegawa, entitled "The Eye Power of Painters". There were a lot of publications that were useful for art appreciation.

I'm glad to hear the explanation of the work directly from the painter.

It is said that he expressed the struggle of ideology.


I will listen to the story while having a delicious wine.

It was this work that I loved silverware.


An elegant lady. I fell in love with the picture.


What impressed me was the children of elementary school students. It's unique to Ginza that is safe and secure.

An elementary school girl is asking Hiroshi Okano about drawing. My dream is a female painter.

There was also a picture of Marie Laurentan in this gallery. 


In Yoko Noro's "Ginza Gallery Tour", I remembered a sentence describing "art education for elementary school students and town planning".


In addition, a tour of the city of Chuo-ku Tourism Association will be held, so please enjoy this as well.

 Speaking of "Matsu Shiman," it's a restaurant in Shintomi-cho. 

When I was working at Minato 3-chome, I used to walk around here a lot, so I had passed several times before. Today, there was an errand at the Kyobashi Tax Office and the Central Metropolitan Tax Office, so I visited before 12 o'clock to enjoy lunch. When I talked to the person who came out in preparation for the opening of the store, he smiled and said, "If 30 years ago, I know the appearance of the restaurant."

eye !  Weekly set meals, shrimp fried set meals, roast cutlet set meals, etc. are affordable at 1,100 yen.

Limited quantities of sashimi set meals include fresh red sea bream, tuna middle toro, first, crow pirate making and colder, small bowl, and elegant miso soup. (This menu and price are as of May 31, 2012.)

CIMG0510Matsushima.jpg 

The location is the back of the Central Metropolitan Tax Office, 2-9-1 Shintomi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, and the phone number is 03-3551-8000.

At 12:05, a man and woman who seemed to be working nearby rushed on a bicycle.

PS. At the time of the bill, my mother and two people sent me a smile. Also, it's the shop I wanted to go to. At night, 720ml bottle of shochu costs ¥3,500, so it is a friendly shop for your wallet.  Please look forward to the history edition at the restaurant.

 

 

Inari, Abira Shrine 

[Silver] June 10, 2012 08:30

Anping Inari Shrine is enshrined near Kyobashi Plaza and Miyoshi Bridge. I've been studying the history for many years, but I found a description in the local archives of the Kyobashi Library.

According to the 1956 edition of Ginza Times, "Ginza Yearbook" edited by Ginza Times, the address was east 1-2, Suzuki Senkichi's residence. It was located in the residence of Minomori Shinjo during the Edo period, during the old Makuhaku period, and after the Meiji Restoration, the place was obtained by the predecessor, Senkichi Suzuki, and when opening Wan'an Tower in 1893, it was named Anping Inari Shrine. I worshiped it. " The following is an example.

 I was able to see it on the map of the early Meiji era obtained in the local archives. 

I thought about the background of that era, the settlement, and the origin of the name of Shintomi-cho.○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○   

P1000001.jpg 

 It is an Abira Shrine with such a history. Even now, it is a scene where the neighbors pay tribute to the custom of greeting each morning with two bows, two beats, one bow, and one bow. 

Why don't you visit the history of one corner of a large apartment and rest your mind?

 

 

Gold and silver foil powder Asano Shoten

[Silver] June 6, 2012 15:00

I visited Asano Shoten, which handles gold leaf and gold powder from Ginza 8-chome and Namiki-dori St. On the company's website

As part of the expansion of the business of Tokyo Ginza Otaya Asano Shoten, a wholesale gold and silver foil powder manufacturing wholesaler founded in 1887, the company's precious metal products wholesale division became independent. At present, we are planning various products to offer the traditional beauty of Japan, such as elegant gold leaf crafts, oil removal paper using genuine gold leaf cast paper that has been prized as makeup paper with superior absorption since ancient times, glossy lacquer jewelry, and gold folding screens that you want to use casually. There is an introduction. The local information magazine "Ginza 15th Street" NO.179 describes the difficulties of the current president, Hiroshi Watanabe, who took over the family business with his third daughter from working at a construction company. Like old knowledge, I was kind and kindly guided around the store.

CIMG0528.jpg

It is a product of Kinmaki-e depicting luxurious fireworks. It's wonderful.

CIMG0534.jpg

It is said that the company's gold powder was also used to restore Hiraizumi's golden hall. Products closely related to daily life are also available. This is a compact for women. I wonder if I'll give it to my wife next time.

CIMG0539.jpg 

There was also a sticker that puts such a simple gold leaf. It's "Utsushi Kin Makie". Let'sfuji do our best!

CIMG0538.jpg 

In the store, there was literally a "gold signboardshine" at the time of its founding. The president has a deep knowledge of art, and today the "Suzuki Gotake Book / Engraving Small Product Exhibition" was held.  There are a lot of affordable items, so we recommend silver. Please come and visit us once.
