Chuo-ku certification character "Tenharu Senta-kun"

[Mido] August 10, 2016 18:00

 There is a mascot character in the Chuo-ku Tourism Certification Test.

The name is "Tenharu Senta-kun". By the way, what is the origin of the name "Senta-kun"?

Do you know? The hints are related to Chuo-ku ...

Senta → Yeah → Center AKB48's "Center Battle"

As you can see, the center is the "center".

That's Mr. Senta of Chuo-ku. (laughs)

It's like a father gag, but once I'm convinced, I can't forget it.

 

Now, in the world, "Pokemon Go" is a monster with a smartphone in one hand.

The game to look for is popular, but the tourist association also has "Tenharu Senta-kun Go".

The game entitled "Finding Senta-kun hidden in Chuo-ku" is called "Senta-kun"

How about it? "Chuo-ku Marugoto Museum" while looking for Senta-kun

I think it's fun to enjoy it, but what do you think?

 

 

 

Recommended "Special Omurice" (Higashiginza)

[Mido] July 12, 2016 14:00

"Omurice" in this shop can be said on your own preference and on your own.

I think we'll be in the top 3 in Chuo-ku. Located near Ginza Kabukiza Theater

The name "A Voter Sante Endo" is long and hard to remember.

The place is in an easy-to-understand place. (1 minute walk from Higashiginza)

 

Of course, there are a lot of dishes, but I would like to recommend this restaurant.

It's a special omelet. The price is a little high at 1300 yen.

I don't regret it. Chicken is Oyama chicken, rice is fresh rice of Koshihikari from Uonuma.

Fresh eggs sent directly from the production area, the luxury of using 4 pieces of them in one plate.

The plenty of onion is very sweet, and it is a butter-rich fluffy egg

Rich tomato ketchup matches. The eggs are baked.

It's not a feeling, it's not hard, and it's just right to adjust it softly. Simple

Therefore, I think it is the perfect form of exquisite omelet rice.

At dinner time, shrimp and scallops are added, and the "seafood" is full of the scent of the beach.

You can also enjoy "Omurice" (1680 yen).

I hope you will stop by when you come near you.

The exquisite soba restaurant "Soba Yoshi"

[Mido] June 21, 2016 12:00

In the Nihonbashi area, there is a famous exquisite standing soba restaurant.

The name of the store is "Soba Yoshi". It is a 3-minute walk from the Tokyo Metro "Mitsukoshi-mae".

It was also featured on NHK's popular program "Bra Tamori", and Tamori, a food communal, acclaimed.

It's said that the taste is endorsed.

 

When you enter the store, you can smell the bonito flakes. In fact, this shop is a long-established bonito specialty store.

It is a standing soba restaurant run by Nakaya Shoten, so high-quality dashi is heard.

Orders are purchased at the vending machine.

I think the recommendations of this shop are "Kakiage Soba" and "Kenchin Soba".

The fried shrimp with plenty of shrimp is very delicious.

You can also satisfy Kenchin soba with a lot of vegetables.

And the scent of buckwheat flour is also very good.

 

In addition, there is a hidden popular menu unique to the bonito specialty store.

My name is "Okakaka". Sprinkle it on rice and try it with soy sauce.

It can only be said that it is simple but excellent.

However, cheap and good shops have a "line" that can be said to be fate.

Above all, I want to avoid lunchtime. The shop is narrow and full.

So, I can't deny that it's quite cramped, but that's why it's a soba that you want to eat.

Kyobashi Edgran opened this fall

[Mido] April 18, 2016 09:00

Kyobashi Edgran (KYOBASHI EDOGRAND), a complex facility, is located in Kyobashi, Chuo-ku.
It is scheduled to open in the west district of 2-chome this fall.
Kyobashi Edgran is a 5-minute walk from Tokyo Station and is located at Kyobashi Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line.
It is said that it will be built in a good location directly connected.
The development concept is "Rooting, Growing, and Fruit-Like A Big Tree."

  

Super high-rise seismic isolation offices boasting the largest and highest specs in Japan in the Kyobashi area
In addition, it is a low-rise store area with the theme of "food" and a historical building building.
It consists of the Meijiya Kyobashi Building.
There is also an open space with an atrium with a height of about 31m.
A terrace where you can feel the light and wind of the sun and a green commercial area.
You can spend a relaxing time.

 

Commercial facilities such as 30 restaurants are mainly located on the lower floor, and the upper floor is located on the upper floor.
I hear it's a rental office. Furthermore, the “Tourist Information Center (tentative name)” was opened.

And designated temporary accommodation facilities for people who cannot return home in Chuo-ku.

It seems to be a facility that can accept thousands of people for three days.

It will be a new landmark that will further enhance the appeal of Kyobashi.
I'm looking forward to it.

Statue of Mitsukoshi Lion

[Mido] March 18, 2016 16:00

Mitsukoshi is a department store with 2 stores in Chuo-ku (Nihonbashi / Ginza).
And the lion statue at the front entrance is a symbol of Mitsukoshi.
It's a spot.

 
The statue was born in 1914 (1914), and was at Mitsukoshi Department Store.
Ousuke Hibi, the manager of the time, who is said to have laid the foundation, prepares for opening a department store.
For this reason, when I visited Europe and the United States, I ordered this "Lion statue" at U.K.
That's right. Four lion statues in Trafalgar Square in London
Is a model, and it is said that it took three years to complete.

 

By the way, this statue of the Mitsukoshi Lion is sometimes disguised.
It is not regular, but disguise when there is an event or entertainment.
I'll do it. It looks like a change of clothes for Peko in Fujiya, and when I discover it
I'm glad. When you stop by Mitsukoshi, you will see a lion statue.
Please check it out.
