"New Year's gift / sale" is being held at a shop in Tsukiji Outer Market.　Get an "application postcard" at a shop with a yellow balloon (balloon) or store poster.　It is a very angry project that 10,000 yen for 10 people, 2nd 3,000 yen for 200 people, and 3rd 1,000 yen for 4,300 people.　I have to prepare for the New Year's Day, Nanikaichi! The delicious and reliable products are Tsukiji.

On November 17, "Gathering of International Exchange 2012" was held by the Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association (CCIEA). .　When I signed my name at the reception on the 2nd floor, Mr. Bountia's lady kindly offered me a tea service.　Immediately, a talk with people I met recently began, and it was a peaceful moment.　Those on the left side of me have a fun exchange with those born in Taiwan, who live in Chuo-ku for international marriage, volunteers, men who came to Japan from Germany and lived in Chuo-ku for three and a half years.　I look forward to participating in this event every year.　There were a lot of fun events.　Among them,

 Today, it was Sri Lanka Day, so he introduced Sri Lanka's culture and exchanges with staff and the general public.　It's a record of staying in Sri Lanka and experiencing life here.　He told me that it was important to know the local area and actually experience it, not just a trip.  

He also taught me the ecology of tropical plants and how to use them in daily life.　After that, I enjoyed matcha, ink painting. My feet are numb!　I also tried the Nanjing Tama blinds.　Would you like to show off the Nanjing Tama blinds here next year?

I once again realized the importance of international exchange at the citizen level. I would like to express my deepest respect and appreciation for the activities of the staff of the Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association (CCIEA). Thank you very much.　Click here for the association's website.　Would you like to join us?　http://www.chuo-ci.jp/　

Today, I came to the restaurant "Kesshiki" in 38 squares of Hotel Man Dallin Oriental in Nihonbashi for lunch. Because it is on a high-rise floor, I was worried that the meal cost would be high, and I was expecting what kind of delicious food would be served. When we arrived on the 38th floor, the hotel concierge greeted me with a smile. When I commented that it was a wonderful view, he told me that you could see not only the Tokyo Sky Tree but also the Tokyo Tower on the other side. Two shots with the wonderful Nihonbashi beautiful concierge.　It is not only polite, but also a sophisticated but friendly and friendly service that is often found in hotels in big cities.　At the entrance of the restaurant "Keshiki", an object with wonderful ingredients.

The decided menu was "raw spring rolls using fresh bonito and vegetables" as one of the three salads, and "fried noodle of shrimp and air core vegetables" in noodle menu. 

The restaurant staff will respond familyly with a modest smile.　It's my first time to serve customers with such a friendly and warm atmosphere.　Not only women but also male staff reduces politeness and treats them softly.　At 1:00 pm, the shade curtains are half lowered because the sun is a little strong, but the surrounding scenery is the best. It is a landscape that raised the shade when the sun became a little softer. Today's table shows Ginza, Rainbow Bridge in the back, Tsukiji on the left, Shinkiba, Kasai Rinkai Park and Chiba on the left.　The beautiful scenery is comfortable!

When ordering, ask, "Do you have any ingredients that you are not good at?"　You're really kind. The squeezed smells of lemongrasss and lemons to refresh your mind.　Well, I've got a lot of energy and appetite!　 Four kinds of bread put out before the appetizer salad came out, the baguette with crisp skin and soft inside, I replaced two later.　Butter made with butter, olive oil, and seaweed had a good scent of the beach. 　By the way, "Katsuo and Myogari Yellow Nira's raw spring roll Kochujan and large leaf sauce" came. It's really delicious because fresh bonito is used.　Bonito is also called Bonito in English, but when expressed in Spanish, Que bonita! (Beautiful and delicious! I wanted to shout.

It is the appearance of today's main, "Frend Noodle of shrimp and air core vegetables".　There are three large shrimps and minced meat, and the top is colored with fragrant herbs and a wonderful decoration. 

Tea and dessert. I ordered a special oolong tea. Dessert is sherbet and seasonal ingredients such as persimmon and strawberry.　This is refreshing and delicious!

Spending in a high-rise restaurant on the 38th floor was not only a nice view, but also a good meal and a friendly reception of staff.　I had a really good time.　Thank you to all the staff.　By the way, this price was ￥3,200 plus service charge of ￥416, for a total of ￥3,616.　Next time, let's come with my family!　Here's a phrase.　The 5 pieces that Ginzo put on for the first time☆

From the SONY Building, follow Ichibankan and Nishi-Ginza-dori, and you will find a stationery store called "G.C.PRESS" just across Miyuki-dori.　I haven't noticed until now, but this year marks the second anniversary of this year. If you look inside the shop for a while, there is also a notebook made of Italy, a notebook of black leather like Ginza.　The price is about 7500 yen, which is reasonable. It is recommended for those who are considering a new year's notebook.

Some celebration bags are also for celebration to foreigners.　There are also nice envelopes designed with snow crystals.

It's a small shop, so you can find good and necessary items quickly.　It was a message from the store manager to feel free to drop in. Click here for more information. http://www.gc-inc.co.jp/g01.html　　

Kizukinasai (Tsukina Festival) 2012 was held grandly on November 10.　First, I visited the main hall and received a booklet entitled "Tsukiji Honganji main hall Restoration Project".　The explanation of the booklet is as follows.

　"Toward the 750th anniversary of the Shinran Saints in April 1993, we carried out large-scale restoration of the architectural design of the inner sanctum main hall, Buddhist memorial service, and the palaces and Sumidan, which are now 78 years old.　The main hall was built in 1934 and is a steel-framed reinforced concrete building.　The structure consists of the front large staircase, the outer team for worship, the inner and outer team of tatami mats in the back, the inner sanctum where the main deity Amida Buddha is enshrined, and the left and right spaces.　For the restoration, the finish was updated mainly with inner sanctum and the margins, and dust removal and cleaning were performed between the margins and left and right sheaths and outside teams, which had relatively little damage."　That's an explanation.　I joined main hall again after the renovation.　　Also, in the booklet, I would like to inform you that main hall and Stone Wall became registered Tangible Cultural Property on July 25, 2011.　It is a great pleasure that there is a registered cultural property in Chuo-ku.

　Well, after visiting, let's have a fun celebration.　　There were also cute children who participated in today's parade.　The comic artist from Osaka was also excited.

There were stores from all over the country, not only in the Tsukiji area.　Is it Mr. Matsuro's new product?　It seems that there is a shop outside Tsukiji on the 7th of every month.

I met an acquaintance and shop at a store in Fukushima Prefecture.　(For two people, permission to post photos has been obtained.)

There was a parade of "Yuruchara" with the child from Yasuaki Elementary School, but please give the report to other people.  If you want to know more, this is the URL of the guide in advance.　http://tsukijihongwanji.jp/kizukinasai2012/6507

On October 27th, I was strolling through Higashinihombashi, and I was able to see a little visit, so I went to Yagenbori fudoson.　But in front of fudoson, I hear some lively and cheerful voice.　Yes, I'm waiting for the kids to get on the mini SL. Today was the day when the "Yagenbori Mobile Shopping Street" was held once in case.

The shirt was sold at a low price, so when I bought two pieces, I got a lottery ticket for Fukubiki.　I received a 500 yen voucher by lottery, so I was worried that I would not buy anything else. You're good at your business. But please take a look at the price. The shoes cost around 10,000 yen, are 3900 yen. It's exactly the service price.  

　When you finish shopping and want to take a break, a wonderful smile entertainment. We had delicious tea with "heart of hospitality".　Thank you very much.　Thank you very much.
