If it doesn't fall, it looks whisper in your eyes, but you'll be surprised by the sound of the wind

Risa Larson Exhibition [Matsuya Ginza]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] September 14, 2014 09:00

From September 11th (Thursday), the "Nordic Rich Time Risa Larson Exhibition" is being held at Event Square on the 8th floor of Matsuya Ginza. Until I went to this exhibition, I didn't know this person, but when I went there today, it was nice to have a very friendly and healing style, so I would like to introduce you.

Risa Larson, a Swedish potter born in 1931, seems to continue making pottery even after the age of 80. Many of the works on display are based on the theme of animals and children, and each work gives a warm sense of humor.

lisal1.JPGAt the venue, more than 200 works by Risa Larson were exhibited, the interior of the atelier and summer house was reproduced, and the pottery scenery was introduced in the video. On the first night, I went around 7 o'clock, With an amazing number of visitors, I am just ashamed of my unknown.

The event will be held until September 23 (holiday, Tuesday). The last day is closed at 17:00, and admission is until 30 minutes before closing.

Anago is delicious! [Nihonbashi Tamai]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] September 7, 2014 09:00

With the introduction of a gourmet senior, I went to anago specialty store Tamai Nihonbashi Muromachi store.

The place was just a short walk from the intersection of Edo-dori St. and Chuo-dori. It is a convenient place to walk from JR Kanda Station, Shin-Nihonbashi Station, and in front of Mitsukoshi Subway Ginza Line.

tam1.JPGThe shop has a retro atmosphere that was burned down in the Tokyo Air Raid in 1945, creating a Showa atmosphere. Inside the shop is full and reservations are required.

tam2.JPGI ordered the popular "Anago Box Meshi / Mid Box". For the seasoning of anago, select "Ainose" where you can enjoy both "boiled" and "yaki". First of all, as it is, "Fuwafuwa" is this, and then add condiments such as yuzu skin, green onions, wasabi, and sesame. Put the soup stock from the baked bone and bonito flakes to pickle it. I enjoyed the blissful time for a while

tam4.JPGThe sashimi and tempura served on the course before the box meal arrived were also really delicious, especially the sashimi of anago is the first time, and I am surprised at the texture that is completely different from the texture of "boiled" and "burned".

Indeed, anago is delicious

Tamai, anago specialty store, has a main store near Nihonbashi Takashimaya, and also has a store in Coredo Muromachi 2.

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] September 3, 2014 09:00

At the entrance on the first floor of the main building of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi, a lion statue will be greeted with a gold mask. From mitsumas1.JPGAugust 27 (Wednesday), the "Wunder Mask Art Museum" will be held at Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store.

During this period, Noh masks and ethnic masks will be introduced in the central hall on the first floor of the main building, and related talk shows will be held.

mitsumas2.JPGThe period is until September 9 (Tuesday).

Above all, the lion's mask (), who turned 100 this year, has a great impact.
