Pilot Pen Station & Cafe

[Mapo ★] May 29, 2014 09:00

Pilots are the manufacturer of writing instruments that you all know.

This headquarters is located in Kyobashi, Chuo-ku.

There is a cafe and a museum there, so I enjoyed it at once (*^^*)

 

First of all, there is a cafe on the first floor, so be prepared there.

In the menu called High Tea, it can be used as a High Tea Stand.

Mixed sandwiches, scones, etc. are listed and 700 yen with a drink.

And it's very reasonable♪

And the inside of the store is strangely calm.

It is easy for one woman to enter (*^^*)

 

After that, go to the pen station on the second floor.

 

There is a large maki-e fountain pen on display.

You can also see the evolution of writing instruments on the panel in chronological order.

Speaking of which, when I was in elementary school, I had only pencils when I was 1.2 years old.

The appearance of the mechanical pencil was revolutionary and impressed.♪

When I was a junior high school student, a mossy ink pen that could write letters on a transparent underlay became popular.

Now, both public and private use gel ink ballpoint pens.

With that in mind, there is a considerable change in my history.★

 

Both the cafe and the museum can be very popular, so be sure to get it (* ^^ *).

Rabbit cream puff ★Nicolashal

[Mapo ★] May 22, 2014 14:00

Nishi-Gobangai Street in Ginza is on the street.

It has become a hot topic under the name Ginza Chocolat Street.

 

One of them.

Rabbit cream puff of Nichola Shar from Lyon.

I watched it once on TV and it was very cute, so I went there (* ^^ *)

It seems that Nikolaos's shop is the first shop in Ginza.★

He's a very friendly person.

In front of the store, both on weekdays and on Saturday, in front of the store.

I was talking to people walking along the street with a basket for tasting chocolate.

 

The cream puff from the show window is baked for a sample.

It seems that there is no cream inside.

I was planning to buy some cream puff and go home.

It's a great deal, so I decided to eat it at the cafe on the second floor.

 

Cute~ (*^^*)

There is no single cream puff in the cafe.

This rabbit cream puff plate (with drink) is 1870 yen.

There is a parfait with rabbit cream puff.

By the way, you can buy only cream puff for takeout.

About 500 yen to 560 yen per piece.

 

I think it's cute and talked about making a souvenir (* ^^ *)

Ginza Mitsukoshi ★French food fair

[Mapo ★] May 18, 2014 09:00

This year, a French food fair is being held on the 8th floor of Ginza Mitsukoshi.

It's until May twentieth and the last day ends at 17 o'clock.

 

When you go up the elevator, you can sell miscellaneous goods such as bags.

The first food sales floor is oil sardine.

 

KIMG0124.JPG KIMG0125.JPG

 

It's an oil serdin in the Pluttany region, from a company called La Bell Iroisers.

The taste was very rich, and I was able to taste all 9 kinds.

All of them were delicious, but I made it a little spicy Pimento flavor.

And next is the mustard of Edmond Fallow for this purpose.

There are many kinds of mustards of Faroe.

I also sell it to Japan, but I went to buy a taste that I couldn't buy in Japan.

There was no pandemic, but there was a cassis, so I bought it.★

And next is cheese. It's also in Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi, and the main store is in front of Suitengu-mae.

A shop called cheese on the table.

This time, I also tasted cheese specially imported for fairs.

I bought shavre (goat cheese) and blue cheese.★

Next is the shops of Junbon (Ham) and Socison (Salami) in Byonne.

It was delicious, so I bought a ham.

And let's go through the wine corner.

I've been drinking quite a lot of different kinds until now.

There are a lot of wines with labels that I have never seen before.

When I heard it, there are many wines that are sold only at hotels and restaurants.

It is also the real pleasure of the fair to buy such wine.

I tasted more than 10 kinds.

Sweets booths such as Essile Butter and Eskis Milfeuille were also exciting.

I will definitely go next year (*^^ *)

 

 

 

 

Soup curry shop ★Yellow Spice Ginza store

[Mapo ★] May 10, 2014 09:00

It is a soup curry shop located in Ginza 6-chome.

Soup curry that you want to eat occasionally♪

The first time I ate was when I went to a friend who lived in Asahikawa at the time.

Speaking of soup curry, it is Hokkaido (*^^ *)

 

This shop is very aggressive in the store.

And choose soup, ingredients, amount of rice, spicy, toppings, etc.

There are five types of soups: yellow (original), white (soy milk), red (tomato), black (pork bone), and dark yellow (increased spices).

I chose cabbage and bacon ingredients because it was original and the spicy was four.

Vegetables are crunchy and delicious ~ (* ^^ *)

The lower right is black sauce of tonkotsu★

 

KIMG0117.JPG KIMG0118.JPG

 

Soup curry has the crisp texture and the smooth spiciness.★

If you like it on Facebook, you will receive a discount coupon email.

Wine and Food Shop ★Ginza Shinanoya

[Mapo ★] May 4, 2014 09:00

 

I was looking for this wine at Rakuten because there was a little good thing.
Chateau Margo's Pavilion Blanc. This is the white version of the wine that appeared in the park.
 
KIMG0098.JPG RIMG1663.JPG
 
Before the consumption tax rises, I ordered it on March 30 (laughs).
+3% of 20,000 is large.
But when I buy wine, I always worry about shipping costs.
It's good to buy in bulk, but when you want only one bottle, you feel like you've lost it a little (laughs).
 
When I proceeded to the last page of the purchase, I had the option to go to a brick-and-mortar store.
When I wondered where it was, there were several stores in Tokyo.
It's in Ginza~ (*^^*)
Home delivery is easier when buying in bulk, but it's easier.
If you only have one bottle, it's nice to have no shipping cost.♪
 
Ginza 8-chome is an area with lots of clubs and snacks in Ginza.
There are many kinds of cheese, chocolate and snacks that are likely to appear in the shop.
 
I found a good shop!
From next time, I'll buy it here for up to 2 bottles and go to get it.★
I thought so, the next time I bought these two pieces.
Don't be reckoned with Kitty's label! Authentic spmante of Italy. It's 2654 yen (*^^*)
The lower right is the Domene of my big fan, Michel Gro's sister. Anne François Glo.
It was 3,013 yen for a bargain in April. It was a delicious Bourgogne without any miscellaneous taste (red wine)
