Meigetsuan ★Egg Toji Soba at Ginza Tanakaya Main Store

[Mapo ★] January 26, 2012 08:30

My friend came to Tokyo last December, so I went for lunch.

There are several soba shops that haven't been to Ginza yet.


I'm an egg toji soba and my friend is Kizami green onion. Both were 1100 yen.

When I was in elementary school, the soba I ate in Tokyo with my mother was black.

Ten years since then ... black broth is no longer visible.

Did the taste of soba in Tokyo become gentle? (* ^^ *)


Egg Toji soba, I ate it for the first time in a long time, but it's delicious.★

I can't see soba because it's full of fluffy eggs (laughs).


 

 


Udon is Kansai, but the soba is delicious in Tokyo.★

Ricoh's ring cube ★San-Ai Building at Ginza 4-chome Intersection

[Mapo ★] January 23, 2012 08:30

The building opposite Wako intersection at 4-chome is located.
It is called San-Ai Dream Center and has a cylindrical shape.


Speaking of San-Ai, swimwear is famous, but you can see the 50 years of San-Ai swimwear on the homepage.
I'm surprised to have been there for such a long time!


In this building, there is also a beauty salon in addition to the Sibon Ginza store I introduced earlier.
There may be brand off (like a recycling shop).


 


And there are Ricoh's ring cubes on the 8th and 9th floors.


The 9th floor on the top floor is GALLERY ZONE. It's a gallery space.


The 8th floor is CAMERA ZONE.
All of Ricoh's cameras have been on display.
This is a workshop space for photo lectures and talk shows.


 


I bought a digital camera for the first time in 1997.
It was an interesting shape of Ricoh's DC-3, a petan and a type to put it.
At that time, I asked a passerby for a shutter.
"Is this a digital camera? I saw it for the first time ~ "(^^ *)


Then, in 2000, I bought the successor RDC-7.
I was waiting for the successor to this.
I knew that this shape would not be manufactured.
Finally, I bought the CX1 in 2009.
In this way, my digital camera life has been walking with Ricoh (*^^*).


On the ninth floor, it seems that various events such as photo exhibitions are being held.
Admission is free and regular holidays are Tuesday.
There is also a course (paid) that shoots delicious food, so let's take it next time.


And we rent cameras free of charge to the first five people every day.


 


Even though I came to Ginza, I forgot my camera! What a good time (* ^^*)
There are only two models, GXR and CX5.
I would like to borrow it once to verify the difference from the CX1.♪

The patisserie style and soil of Ginza 6-chome

[Mapo ★] January 21, 2012 08:30

Patisserie wind and soil in Ginza 6-chome.
Last year, when I was walking along Nishi Ginza Street, I found a new shop opposite the road!

It seems that it opened about a year and a half ago at a restaurant of Chef Patissier Takuya Uemura.
Speaking of which, Nishi-Ginza Dori may not have passed much.


 


Ginza is the first store, and it seems that there was only a store here at this time.
It seems to be located inside the ticket gate of Tokyo Station and at Shinagawa Station.


It seems that it is made with special attention to Japanese materials.
There are various sweets made from Iwate-grown "Nevarigoshi" for flour.


The best recommendation is tart fromage (cheese cake)
And recently, roll cakes are also popular, and they are also popular.
There is also "silver six rolls" made with whole grain flour and rice flour.


In my case, the first thing to buy with a Western confectionery shop is Duckworth.
There were two types, so I bought them.
It doesn't seem to use flour, so it's moist.
It was a crunchy with almonds!

And the pie confectionery called Ginza Marronnier Street.
I liked the name and shape of chestnuts and bought it.
It's a pie dough, but it's moist, and the chestnuts come in and it's delicious!

Ginza Miyukikan ★Mont Blanc and Croissant Morning of Waguri

[Mapo ★] January 4, 2012 08:30

Speaking of Ginza Miyukikan, there are 6 stores in Ginza.
It is a cafe famous for the signboard of "Mont Blanc, which is said to be the most delicious in Ginza."


The main store in Sotobori-dori St. was ate the Mont Blanc.
It's been about three years ago, but the meringue at the
bottom feels good, and the cream inside is also delicious.
It was a mellow, rich and very delicious Mont Blanc.
On September 1st, Mont Blanc of Waguri seems to be a new chestnut.


  


The main store also had an entrance on Sony Street on the back, and this entrance was also cute.★

The main store is open by the window, and the atmosphere is good.
It seems that the coffee uses Royal Copenhagen and Jinori tableware.
I happened to be able to sit in a seat facing the street on the table, so I felt very Parisy (laughs).



As an aside, I saw Yoichi Hayashi at the head office at that time (laughs).


And the shop in Ginza 2-chome, which was made this year, was created.
There is a limited 15 croissant morning (630 yen).
I happened to go to Ginza in the morning, so I went there.

 

 

Well, it's only croissant and cafe au lait, so it might not be a great deal.
This croissant was awarded the Savour de Raney Prize.
It seems that they use AOC-certified fermented butter from Charant Powatu.

The surface is crispy and rich butter soaked in (* ^^ *)

 


And the interior is really Paris-like and cute.
There were some seats with partitions that looked like a private room, and it was a very calm atmosphere.♪
