Brand Cafe & Restaurant 2: Gucci Cafe

[Mapo ★] August 13, 2009 09:00

This cafe is located in the Gucci Building, located along the Wako of Harumi-dori St., Ginza 4-chome.
It was a very hot day, so the air conditioner was very effective and the inside of the shop was a different world.

The interior of the store is large, and the space between the next seat makes you feel luxurious.
The design of the table and coasters was unified and the atmosphere was chic and good.

  

I made an iced tea and baked goods plate on this day.
The baked sweets were really freshly baked and warm and delicious!

And this iced tea glass.
The bottom is a circle, but the top is an elliptical design.
I wanted the iced tea to look delicious and I wanted it.

After all, vessels are important (*^^*)

Only in the store of Gucci Cafe, I felt that time was flowing slowly.
The price is reasonable, and it is recommended for tea time you want to relax.

When a person approaches, the contents of the panel change to the guidance of each floor!

August 10 Town Walking “Industrial Course” Nihonbashi / Kyobashi Course

[Mikazuki] August 11, 2009 09:00

 Unfortunately, the weather was unfortunate today, but for the first time I was a course guide.

I would like to thank all of you who participated and all the shops who cooperated.confident

It is a two-hour course that walks around 4 long-established stores in Nihonbashi and Kyobashi and transfers, but the shop people explain well about popular products from the history of the shops and towns, and the participation fee is free However, it was a really fun course with lots of tastings and souvenirs.

The first store went to "Yamamoto-noriten" located opposite Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi. We tasted tidbits laver, seasoned laver, freshly baked laver, and quite high-class laver that you can not buy by yourself. There was a large enclosure jar that you used to store laver in the large store with the image of a ship, and there were many things you didn't know unless you participated in this course. Because it is a long-established store, I thought it would be difficult to enter the store with a high-class image, but there are also reasonable laver in the 500s, so we recommend that you stop by when you walk around Nihonbashi.

The second store went to "Yagicho Honten" which is also facing Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi. The 8th president himself explained the old photos of Nihonbashi, and the photo shows a signboard saying "50 yen bowl, 1 yen set meal", and "If you have 50 yen ordinary meals, 1 yen If you have 1 yen, I was able to eat something very good ", and bonito is actually similar to cheese and has high nutritional value. We have high-quality bonito, konbu, sesame, etc. that are friendly to the body, so we recommend it especially for elderly people.

The third store went to "Senbikiya" in Kyobashi. At the store, you will explain the delicious parts of the fruits and the history of the shops and towns, move inside the store and have delicious mixed juice, and all the fruits of one character such as "peach" and "pear" come from China It was interesting to explain that there were many fruit shops to be offered to women, such as Yoshiwara and Shimbashi. There are plenty of fruits as well as lunch, cake and ice cream, so it is especially recommended for women.

The fourth store went to Moriichi in Kyobashi. Although it is a large stationery shop, Tatamiya was born in 1872, and started stationery shop in Kyobashi in 1906, developed collaborative products with various companies, and created by Moriichi. He carefully explained useful products and useful products. Some stationery, such as Japanese-style ballpoint pens and brush pens that are perfect for foreign souvenirs, and some stationery that is not common in other stationery. If you like stationery, we recommend that you stop by along with a pilot pen stay on the opposite side.

Long-established stores offer good things and attract people, so I realized again that they can continue to be popular for many years. The town walking course is held from August to October, and you can check the courses and dates on the website of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, so we recommend that you participate by all means.happy02
