When I used it for dinner last June, I introduced it on this blog, but this time I will introduce the menu used for lunch on weekdays.

chian201802.JPG

The soup and salad are included in the set.

The salad has a dark dressing.

chian201803.JPG

Main "Shrimp, Spring Chrysanthemum and Jika deer raw pasta"

The stickiness and firmness of raw pasta are really wonderful.

The flavor of seafood and spring chrysanthemums match well.

chian201804.JPG

We also have bread and drinks, so we have iced coffee.

chian201805.JPG

This is also a popular store, so we recommend that you enter the store early according to the opening time of 11:30.

Christmas rose is blooming [Sukiyabashi Koban side]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] February 24, 2018 18:00

koban201801.JPG

Christmas rose is blooming again this year in the planting space beside the police box at the Sukiyabashi intersection.

koban201802.JPG

The name Christmas rose gives the impression of "roses blooming in December", but in fact many varieties bloom from around Setsubun in February to around March.

It's just this season.

koban201803.JPG

In Christmas rose, the part that looks like a flower is not a botanical "flower" but a part called "gakuhen", so the viewing period is long.

koban201804.JPG

Even if I look at last year's blog, I think I can enjoy it for another month.

koban201806.JPG

With the characteristic of this flower, it is pretty that it blooms in a bright head.

Masaru Kurashina Ichiro Exhibition [Ginza Retro Gallery MUSEE (Muse)]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] February 23, 2018 09:00

kuras201801.JPG

At the 2nd floor gallery of the Ginza Retro Gallery MUSEE (Muse) facing Ginza 1-chome, Showa-dori, a new exhibition by Masaichiro Kurashina, "hitokariudo hunter human hanter proliferating assemblies art metal object "Different World" + "Time Machine" is being held.

Mr. Kurashina's exhibition at this gallery seems to be the third time.

kuras201802.JPG

Mr. Kurashina has a unique background, and for 35 years at Shogakukan, he has been in charge of Shotaro Ishinomori, Mitsuru Adachi, Saito Taka as manga editors, Fujio Fujiko A and many other such writers.

kuras201803.JPG

After serving as editor-in-chief of "Big Comic", he is currently working as an advisor to Fujiko Studios at the line of creations such as "Laughing Sumaman NEW" project.

kuras201804.JPG

At the same time, as an artist, he pursued his own world view with objects and sculptures made of electronic devices and metal materials = "Assembly Art".

kuras201805.JPG

"Assembly art" is an art that collects materials and waste materials such as paper, wood chips, and metal plates into works.

For this reason, Mr. Kurashina can collect materials that are likely to be used as materials for the work at antique markets () etc.

kuras201806.JPG

Kurashina's "work" that combines springs, motors, gears, metronomes, and mysterious machines is displayed in the gallery where the lighting is set dimly dimly dim.

kuras201807.JPG

Due to the scary name "Hitokari Udo", the presence of old brass, the sound of inorganic gears that carve over time, the combination of the rhythm of the metronome, etc., when you enter the venue, you will be taken to a completely different world It seemed to have been taken, and on the contrary, I felt good.

Is the white and black tiles of the pine pattern used in key points called "retro modern" or old and new?

kuras201811.JPG

Why don't you experience a mysterious exhibition where works created by combining brass scraps look like a Buddha statue of gold leaf carrying nimbus?

kuras201808.JPG

The event will be held until February 25 (Sun), so if you are interested in the new exhibition of the author who has both "manga editors" and "artists" on this blog, please drop in early.

Please note that the time is from 11:00 to 18:00, but the last Sunday is until 16:00.

kuras201809.JPG

In addition, we received your consent for photography in the gallery, and Mr. Kurashina gave a careful explanation of the exhibits directly.

Thank you very much

Japanese andromeda writes it as a horse drunken tree, and when the horse eats this leaf, it is said that it is named "tree" that flutters like "sick".

During this season, you can also see "Yukitsuri", "Komomaki", and "Shimoyoke", which are unique to the winter garden.

It is also the wisdom and aesthetic sense unique to the Japanese people to turn the measures to protect plants from pests and the cold winter into beautiful seasonal scenery.
