Sir

I made a reservation because the last train rakugo of Kokintei Komaji was interesting.

It is very pleasant to be able to listen to the story much closer than the usual vaudeville.

I can't wait for August third.

It is a long-established authentic Western-style restaurant "Western Food Shintomi Bricktei" that I have introduced before.

It faces the quiet street of Shintomi 1-chome.

In the nearest station, it is almost equitable from Hatchobori Station on the Hibiya Line and Shintomicho Station on the Yurakucho Line.

The shop is like a retro coffee shop, has a taste, and makes you feel the history.

The reception of the shop is pleasant.

Today, I ordered Hayashi rice for lunch.

It comes with potage soup and salad.

It's Hayashi rice.

Beef is well cooked, soft and rich.

The sweetness of the onions and the crispness are wonderful.

The amount of rice is perfect for palm rice.

Convincing with the sign of "the origin of Western food"

It was a very satisfying palm rice

Here, crab cream croquettes, hamburgers, pork ginger and omelet are also delicious.

I'll come again.

The event period is from Tuesday, July 3 to August 30 (Thursday).

The event is open from 9:00 to 21:00.

At the venue, rare insect specimens and giant plant seeds are on display.

In addition, the colors and shapes are spotted to make it easier to understand the explanation of biodiversity and the critical situation.

It's very interesting and interesting because you can actually touch the exhibits at the venue and also display things you've never seen before.

I was surprised to find the "Lion Goroshi Fruit" in the seeds (fruit) that sticks to animals.

It is held all the time during the summer vacation for children.

Please go out with your family.

This time, we also received your consent regarding photography in the venue and introduction in this blog post.

It is the season when you can hear the voice of cicada from Tsukiji River Park.

Tsukiji River Park is home to many old trees, including Yoshino cherry tree.

From there, you can hear the sounds of minminminzemi and abrazemi unique to summer.

A lot of shells are also noticeable, so the Chuo-ku kid () who was planted on trees in Tsukiji River Park and grew up underground in the park should be singing.

He is a strong child who grew up without losing the drying caused by the harsh heat island phenomenon.

As far as I have confirmed, at a rate of about 1:4, more minminminzemi than Abrazemi.

Certainly, the voice of "Menminminminminminminminminminminminminminmin ..." seems to be much larger than "GGGG ...".

By the way, many cicadas have transparent wings, but Abrazemi's wings are opaque brown in front and back, and cicadas whose entire wings are opaque, seem to be rare in the world.

If you can't hear this cry, a cool autumn will come.

Currently, at Megumi Ogita Gallery, Yukako Sorai's solo exhibition "Archaelque" is being held.

Megumi Ogita Gallery is a quiet and calm gallery located on the first basement floor of the Ginza Otsuka Building 2-16-12 Ginza.

It's the place in red on the map below.

The event will be held from Friday, July 13 to July 28 (Sat), with days, Mondays and public holidays.

Opening hours are from 11:00 to 19:00.

When I visited this exhibition, I am surprised that the material of the work is felt.

Is it more accurate to say that you are surprised by the amazing processing (technique) of the felt, rather than being surprised by the felt?

Mr. Sorai has been fascinated by the fun of the animal movement of wool since he was a student, and has been producing works with felt.

After layering and thickening the felt, the colors and shapes lurking in the back are revealed by hand, drilling holes, taking advantage of the regularity and distortion of the cross section, and making use of the color and shape hidden in the back.

The works on display are those that seem to be motifs of pots and pots around us, those that make you feel life like plants and cells, and those that make you feel the spread of the universe, etc. It is expressed by the sensitivity of Sorai.

This is an uplift of the work above.

They are on display at the venue and make you feel a mysterious presence.

Indeed, it seemed that Sorai's view of the world (the view of space) was expressed by felt and fiber, and I was overwhelmed that it was amazing.

With regard to photography in the gallery, I received your consent, and I heard from the person himself about his passion for the technique in the production process and felt as a means of expression.

Thank you very much

At the gallery "Gallery Ginza" in Ginza 2-chome, an exhibition of fizz glasses "Miyajima Glass Studio Fizz Glass and Light Exhibition" is being held.

The venue will be on the second floor, up the stairs on the left side toward the building.

The event will be held from Tuesday, July 17 to July 23 (Monday).

The event is held from 10 am to 7 pm, but please note that the last day of the 23rd is until 4 pm.

This exhibition is a two-person exhibition by Mitsufumi Yokota and Masuko.

"Miyajima Glass Studio Fizz Glass" is a workshop for fizzgrass in Itsukushima (commonly known as Miyajima) in Hiroshima Prefecture, where Itsukushima-jinja Shrine registered with UNESCO World Cultural Heritage is located.

Unlike blowing glass, fizz glass is said to confine air particles in the glass in the process of baking and producing glass like baking pottery.

The fizz glass "fizz" is Jinfiz's fizz. It is an image of a bubble with shoeshoe, shwashwa and bubbles.

At the venue, works such as lampshades, chopstick rests, brooches, earrings, pierced earrings, and banddome are exhibited.

The transparent glass works of glass and beautiful colored glass stand out in the natural light that shines into the venue on the second floor.

The color of the glass through the light bulb of the lamp shade is warm and gentle.

While explaining, the "Earth Ball" (produced by Masuko, the blue ball on the postcard below) that I forgot to take a picture also emits deep colors in blue and blue when exposed to light.

The glass with air bubbles trapped in the fizz glass is very cool and makes you forget the heat outdoors for a while.

Please stop by once.

In addition, we received your consent for the photography in the gallery, and also gave a careful explanation of the production process of the work.

Thank you very much
