The scent of Tsukiji River Park Kinmokusei

 On the south side of Tsukiji River Park, there are three osmanthus trees, buds are swelling and emit fragrance. 

I'm just attracted to my nose.

Tourism EXPO Japan 2016 A large collection of Japanese famous products at Nihonbashi! Antenna shops also open

[Silver] September 27, 2016 18:00

 From the front of the Bank of Japan to the front of Mr. Kaishin's storefront across Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi and Chuo-dori.

It was called "Nihonbashi Busy Plaza: Area B", and on September 22, it was a great rain leg at first, but it rained around 4 o'clock.

Antenna shops, including Tohoku and Kyushu, and shoppers from local communities sold local specialties and products.

We will show you the shoppers and famous items in order. Please note that we cannot introduce everything in photos.

 

 First of all, Kyushu is a truck with specialty products from Kagoshima Prefecture. Products sold include "Satsuma-age", "Red Satsuma" and "Golden Senuki" gifts from the earth, delicious Satsuma potatoes, and "Fresh-eared mandarin oranges" of flooding.

From the Ginza cotton shop, "Mensore! At the Okinawa Product Fair stall, TAKO RICE, Champloo, Okinawa soba, specialty confectionery, Chinsuko, etc. were sold.

At "Zarai Oita Zarai Oita", I bought a sweet called "Nanbanka Zabiru". This is a baked confectionery containing 3 pickled raisins and 3 white bean paste.

 

At the Ureshino Tea Industry Youth Association in Saga Prefecture, we had a delicious Ureshino tea. I'm really happy!

 

At the Tokyo Good Manners Project's tent, a campaign calling for good manners. I received a paper tote bag containing a wonderful smile and a pamphlet that guides you to the activities. This was very useful for shopping.

 Among the famous items that Nihonbashi Nagasakikan opened and sold, "hand-baked Kasumaki" is a completely favorite. I love red bean paste in the castella, so I love it.

 

At Nihonbashi Toyamakan, purchase "famous confectionery Tsuki World". It is a dried sweet and recommended for tea.

 

At Eitaro's booth, "I'm making handmade." I got this right away. This time, I decided to buy it at the shop.

 

 At the antenna shop in Iwate Prefecture, the popular product "Chera va?" "Purchase a set of 3 cans. Eat the mackerel and get blood smooth. Let's get well.

At the booth in Miyagi Prefecture, you can taste sake "Matsushima of Jotama Junmai Sake Snow". Yes, this was a beautiful sake.

DSC01937.JPG

 And I purchased a very affordable "Karinto 400g". Is it suitable for me to keep the sweetness low? 

 

At Nihonbashi Fukushimakan "MIDETTE", this time only delicious white peach. It is a rare peach in this September season. I also love "famous confectionery Mamadoru".

The final part of "Nihonbashi Busy Plaza: Area B" was near Mr. Kaishin.

The Nihonbashi Cuisine and Food Business Association was selling beer and other products, saying "Unagikuri Karayaki".

 The final purchase was on this street, very heavy.

I'm looking forward to this as the antenna shop stamp rally will begin in October. Silver

 

 

Tourism EXPO Japan 2016 JAPAN NIGHT

[Silver] September 26, 2016 12:00

 Tourism EXPO Japan 2016 JAPAN NIGHT will be held on September 22 (Autumn Equinox Day. It was held on holidays.

The Japan Tourism Organization (JNTO), the Japan Tourism Promotion Association, the Japan Tourism Association, the Japan Tourism Association, the Japan Travel Agency, and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT), the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The Chuo-ku Tourism Association is also a series of names.

The stage was set in Nihonbashi, the starting point in Japan. They paraded at a special venue set up on Meibashi Nihonbashi in front of Colled Nihonbashi, demonstrating traditional performing arts and everyday training techniques.

The moderator's greeting included the mayor of Chuo Yata, the history of Nihonbashi's famous celebrities, and the greetings of guests.

"Edo Fire Memorial Party" showed Edo fire extinguishing woodworking and waming.

A brave ladder ride that I practiced on a daily basis was shown. It's cool! This would have greatly increased his stock.

DSC01976 (360x202). jpg

Everyone at the venue was cheering for the wonderful techniques.

 And I would like to introduce some of the participating organizations from all over the world.

"Kanuma Sculpture Stall" inherits the skills of Nikko Toshogu Shrine and decorates the entire surface (all around) with sculptures, or it is too fine to say a normal "float" . I felt it was a "moving Yomeimon gate". Before we went to the parade, we had a close-up.

DSC01960.JPG

 Yes, this is designated as a "nationally designated important Intangible Folk Cultural Property" and is currently applying for UNESCO Intangible Cultural Property Commission registration. Let's start!

DSC01970 (360x202). jpg

And "Kanuma Imamiya Shrine Festival stall Gyoji", which has 27 such fine "Kanuma sculpture stalls", will be held on October 8th and 9th (Sun).

For more information, please visit the Kanuma City Tourism and Local Products Association website. http://www.buttsuke.com

 And the memories of the Japanese team who played a great role in the Rio Olympics and Paralympics will be revived. Parade with the rhythm of small drums and samba by Brazilians and Japanese.

1474677481558.jpg

That heat will be transmitted! Eu gosto muito de Brasil! Next is Tokyo 2020.

 And this is the appearance of the Akita Kanto Festival, who was waiting for the paper Japanese lantern to get wet while the light rain flickered.

"Well, next is Tokyo!" on the wall of Colled Nihonbashi. But it gave me energy.

DSC01981 (360x202). jpg

 From the venue, I heard a lot of voices saying "I'm waiting!"

DSC01991 (360x202). jpg

The members of the Japan Tourism Promotion Association Tohoku Branch, which I saw at the venue, were also working hard to support.

 The last is "Ushibuka Haiya Odori", a beef deep in Amakusa City, Kumamoto Prefecture, led by Kumamon.

DSC01996 (360x202). jpg

In any case, in Ushibuka, more than 90% of local residents can dance this dance and it is a traditional culture loved by the locals. With this spirit, I hope that everyone in Kumamoto will be able to recover well. Let's do our best, Kumamoto! Let's do our best, Japan!

It was 2 hours to say yes. I hope that the Tourism EXPO Japan will continue to be held in Chuo-ku, and hope that the Japanese tourism industry will continue to develop toward 2020. Silver

CAFE & BAR Ise Monogatari

[Silver] September 22, 2016 09:00

 The shop of Ise Monogatari, which had been closed for a while, has been reopened.

I visited during the construction period and received a special ticket from September 10 to October 9, so I went with my friend.

1474198597612.jpg

 

 Compared to 10 kinds of domestic wines of special treatment tickets, ¥ 1,000 or dinner time eating and drinking tickets of ¥ 1,000 were attractive. When I told me that I like white wine rather than red wine, it was a nice hospitality that I changed to 5 kinds of white X2 cups = 10 cups.

 

 Asahimachi wine, classical music in Yamanashi Prefecture, and grape myths of Izumo City in Shimane Prefecture were good naming and tasteful things that invited me to the mythological era.

1474198661090.jpg

 

The menu is also substantial. First of all, I ordered "Ise sea bream kelp jime" and "Aburi Ise tuna" and hit the tongue.

1474198686992.jpg

 

The fourth type, "Additional additive-free Shinshu Niagara", was a bit sweet, and the finish was "curry rice made from lightly baked Matsuzaka beef topping", soft meat and well-simmered curry.

1474235080411.jpg

 

 The fifth type of wine is our original "festival". I was wondering if I would go on a trip to Ise.

1474235722888.jpg

 

 In the shop, the song of "Ginza of Two" also played, and I was able to spend a wonderful "Twilight Ginza".

The address of the shop is 6-3-7 Ginza, Chuo-ku, Sukiyabashi Park and Sukiyabashi Street in Tokyu Plaza, and is in front of Sunmi Takamatsu.

Phone: 03-6264-5721, Monday and Tuesday are closed.
