　At the Hasegawa Ginza Main Store, famous for its Buddhist altar Hasegawa commercial, facing Ginza Street, Hina doll seemed smiling at me. The Buddha was not waving his hand, so I entered the store.

　Mr. Amida's guidance or a kind woman responded and explained.

The one I tried was a bell.　When the bell rings, the lingering sound remains with Lean and a clear sound. It's the subject of the next purchase.

　In relation to Buddhist utensils, there were incense and smell bags.　In the Buddhist world, it is said that Buddhas do not eat rice or fruits, but eat the scent as a meal.　And it seems that this is called incense food.

　Life wrapped in a faint scent makes you feel calm.

And recently, there is a custom of giving gorgeous incense stick or candles as gifts.　

This is a Japanese sweets-style candle gift set.

　It's fun to decorate your room.

　As you all know, Matsuzaki Senmochi has moved to Ginza 5-6-9.

This year, for the first time, I visited the store and learned that a rice cracker called "Tokyo Marathon Week 2019 Shamitofu" is being sold.

Two pieces of rice crackers are wrapped in cellophane, one with the logo of "Tokyo Marathon Week 2019", and the other with an airship.

And when you buy this rice cracker, you can get two "TOKYO MARATHON WEEK 2019 logo and can badges designed for the city of Tokyo".

It's ￥324, including consumption tax. I put it on my hat right away.

　By all means, be sure to buy it and support runners in Ginza, Kyobashi and Nihonbashi.

※The Tokyo Marathon 2019 will be held on March 3rd.

　The precious metal store "GINZA TANAKA" on Ginza Street is enjoyed in the store with Hina doll, Dango festival decorations, Christmas trees, etc.

This time, we will report the gold, silver and torso medals awarded by the winner of the Tokyo Marathon 2019 are on display.

This exhibition is open until February 28.　Please go out and see the real thing.

　In February, spring has passed, and spring is just around there.

Many of the window shopping in Ginza have created a fun spring.

Ginza U.K.'s show window is entertaining us every year as the four seasons change.

This time, they showed off the bees that danced in the show window.　I am trying to collect honey from cherry blossoms that seem to be Yoshino cherry tree.

　The lower right of the show window is shown.

The message is "Ginza Honey Bee Project Ginza U.K. is supporting the Ginza Bee Project."

On September 25, 2018, Kinokuniya opened "KINOKUNIYA entree Nihonbashi Takashimaya Store S.C." on the first floor of the new building at Nihonbashi Takashimaya S.C.

The store name "entree" means the entrance in French, and was named with the feeling of "entrance" that welcomes many customers so that you can easily enjoy the commitment and quality of Kinokuniya.

In January and February, we had shopping at the store and had a light meal at the eat-in space.

I visited by myself in January and introduced it to my friend in February.

In January, I bought a pondecajo and had a coffee.

In February

　It is recommended when you feel free to enjoy a light meal alone.

The number of seats is limited, so please enjoy another cafe when it is crowded.

　In YUITO Nihonbashi Muromachi Nomura Building B1, there is a remote island department store and a remote island kitchen inside the store.

As I passed through Chuo-dori, I suddenly saw the basement of the YUITO Building, and I was worried about it before, so I went and saw it.

　Remote Island Department Stores: Special products from remote islands in Japan are on sale.

The design of the shopping bag of "ruddy kingfisher" is very nice.　

　　The warm atmosphere of Amami reminiscent of Isson Tanaka's work is transmitted.

　I received a booklet explaining about the remote island kitchen.　

According to the report, the remote island kitchen is operated by a tourist association in Kaido-cho, Shimane Prefecture.　We offer ingredients and dishes not only from our own islands, but also from other islands.　By doing so, I dream that islands across the country can hold hands and share connections that cross the boundaries of prefectures with people and customers all over the country. I am.

　The interior decoration of the restaurant also creates the atmosphere of a remote island.

The word "Delicious Foods & Drinks from Japanese isolated islands" is imprinted on business cards.

In the daily lunch, the “Island Fly Set Meal” on this day included Muroaji Menchikatsu in Hachijojima Island, Tokyo, oyster fries in Kurahashijima, Hiroshima Prefecture, fried dumplings of lemon pork in Iwaki Island, Ehime Prefecture, Kibinago in Koshikijima, Kagoshima Prefecture, and Anno potatoes on Yakushima Island.　The thirst was moistened by using craft beer, stir-fried potatoes using rock seaweed from Mikurajima Island, and miso peanuts from Tokunoshima, Kagoshima Prefecture.

　It is a shop that can be used for a short break.
