March 31 I took a look at the topic of Tokyu Plaza that opened at Sukiyabashi intersection. It's been a bit calm since it's been nearly a month, but there are still many "watchers" similar to me.

There are 125 stores such as fashion, cafes, restaurants, etc., and it is the impression that a little town was created. Today's purpose is the cafe of Esquisse, a luxury French 2-star Michelin.

The restaurant has a little high threshold and I can't easily enter it, but I tried to bother you with the feeling of "What is a cafe?" There are a lot of cakes at the entrance, but this is only a take-out and you can't get inside the store. The Aschette Desale course (3,797 yen) is a set of Grand Desale (3 types), drinks, pre-desale and small sweets. From the Grand Desale, I chose Suffle and my friends chose seasonal fruits. Suffle is a "work" with the impression of "art" rather than "chocolate soup, chocolate sorbet, Teyuir" sweets. I don't know what the soup is in, but it's delicious!

To commemorate the opening of the store, we had bread, which has become a hot topic, as a souvenir. Bread is also sold on the first floor of Wako Annex and is a quiet and popular product. The photo shows a set of souvenir bread, croissants and chocolates (excellent).
It may be a little "high" for dessert, but how about one of the GW town walking courses?

There are cafes on each floor in Tokyu Plaza.

The rebuilding of Suitengu, which began in 2014, has been completed, and general worship has started on April 8. Today is the fourth day, in fact, I arrived at Suitengu Station yesterday, but a long line from the station, the first public "Dog Day" and Sunday, and it seems that there was a special feature on TV the previous day, waiting for 2 hours around 2:00 in the afternoon, waiting for 4 hours in the morning, or it has come back today.

I was able to visit without waiting too much today, and I received a bill and a fortune dog in shrine office, which was completely clean. The entire precincts have a seismic isolation structure, and the number guidance for those who receive the prayer is also provided on video. It's amazing!

It is said that it will be Edo Jinza 200 years in 2018, but as you know, Suitengu was the residence god of the lower residence of the Arima family of the Arima family of the Kurume clan in Mita Akabane during the Edo period. It was recommended by Kurume in the first year of Bunsei (1818), and was reputed to relieve water spills and to give birth to safe delivery, and to allow general worship on the 5th of every month. In the Edo era, it was said that Toyokawainari and the two walls of the Akasaka Ooka Family Shimoyashiki were popular and called "Suitengu of Arima". It moved to Nihonbashikakigaracho in 1872 and has become a local attraction. The police box in front of Suitengu, which was closed, also became the corner of the original intersection.

I came to ask for a bill while delaying those who are on maternity leave, but the dog papier wearing this colander will also be cute. When you put the basket of "bamboo" on "dog", it resembles the word "laughs", so it is lucky items with the wish of "gogo". It's large and small, 500 yen.

Please come and visit Mr. Suitengu, who has become completely new.

It's just a short distance from Suitengu Subway Station.

The cherry blossoms in Tokyo are coming to an end. The new Kabuki "Gensojin Kukai" by Baku Yumemakura came to Kabukiza in April, a hot topic. It is a story that Kukai solves the world of monsters involved during his stay in Tang with Ito Tachibana, but the beautiful thing of Yang Gui, dressed as Shinjaku Uemon who appears. When you come up from the center of the stage, you will sigh from all over the audience. Sparrow Uemon, who often plays a princess, is the Chinese court-style costume perfect, and will the "female" rise if you attack the name to remind you of a real Yang Guihime? Mr. Somegoro's Kukai is lively and attractive, and the combination with Kyogen-like Matsuya is fresh and does not get tired of the length of 2 hours and 20 minutes without intermission. The evening section is Nizaemon's "Motani Village", and the daytime section is Koshiro's "Shiranui Ken School", Nizaemon's "Sincerative Zazen", and "Manage Sanbaso".

Please note that the evening performance starts at 16:45.

Senakiraku is on the twenty-sixth.
