Rebroase lunch at Ginza Okahan Main Store

[Mapo ★] Nov. 30, 2010 09:30

It's a shop that appeared on hanako and wanted to go if I had the opportunity.
If you think it's a sukiyaki or shabu-shabu shop, there is also a teppanyaki.
Even though it's lunch, you can have it baked in front of you!
First, such a cute salad comes out, and then bake vegetables and meat.

Vegetables made with stew are on the iron plate.
It also comes with red soup.

We had a lunch of ribroose, but the meat is Matsuzaka beef.
It's very delicious~ (*^^*)

The baker was also very good!

For 1500 yen for coffee after meals, there is a great deal (* ^^ *)

The store called Okahan is the owner of the shop, Mr. Okasoe.
When opening a store
Mr. Eiji Yoshikawa said, "Oka's work is still halfway."
It seems that it was named.

 

It's a shop with a long history (* ^^*)
A long time ago, I read Eiji Yoshikawa's Mikuni-shi and became a Mikuni-shi fan.
It was an episode with a very close feeling.

Kyoden Santo "Ginza-like character", opened in Ginza 1-chome

[Yotaro] Nov. 29, 2010 08:36

IMG_0369.JPG "Edo Kyobashi Ginza 1-chome. If you go up, you'll be on the left. If you go down, you'll be right. The front is Kyoden Santo, who planted bamboo on a wooden fence and turned hermit. If you put it inside, you will find a store. In Kyoya Denzokata ... (Kyozan Santo "Tobacco Nisho")

 Kyoden Santo, a leading figure in Edo drama, was a resident of Ginza 1-chome from the age of 13 to 56 years old, but in the fall of 1793 (1793), at the age of 33, Kyobashi Ginza 1-chome We rent a house near Kido on the east side bridge and open a 9-shaku Oku Nima store. Ukiyo-e artist Masanobu Kitao has a new design of Kyoden's own design, which is highly regarded as a ukiyo-e artist.In 1795, the same Ginza 1-chome and the father Denzaemon bought a house of a doctor who served as the landlord and relocated, making it a large store with a frontage Mima. Was.

 Kyoden advertises the store in the drama, Utamaro draws the storefront of the Kyoden store in a large format Nishiki-e, and Makoto, which was drawn to Kyoden, is also in the work, `` At this time, there are no people who do not have smoke pipes and tobacco containers at the Kyoden store There are no women who hate Satsuma potatoes and arasu eggplants. " His own tag (flyer) also gained a reputation, and some were tailor-made. (The story is a picture of a child carried by a fox, "Kokin", and an old monk turns upside down and reads "Soro". In the Meiji era, Rohan Kouda wrote a decipherment sentence "Advertisement of Kyoden". ) At the time of opening, the products handled as the prosperity were only paper tobacco containers at the time of opening, but the number of toothpicks, smoke tubes, nose paper bags, medicine such as reading circles and kiomaru, cosmetics such as white peony, etc. According to the number of "Guide to One", cosmetics, booths, and medicine "Kyohashi Kyodenso" is listed in front of cosmetics.

I will play my skills in the field of reading books, comic books and evidence. When it comes to multi-artists, it is often easy to imagine a strange person type, but Kyoden seems to have been a perfect person and a tsujin in terms of personality.

 Utaro Noda, a pioneer of literary walks, described Kyoden as a "Ginza-like person" and wrote this.

"I think Kyoden Santo, who was a smart person of the Edo era, drew dramas and ukiyo-e, and had a Direttant-like culture, and was also a business talent, I think that I am a Ginza-like person."

Genkichichoan ★Japanese sweets at the Ginza Main Store

[Mapo ★] Nov. 24, 2010 14:00

I've used Genkichichoan's Japanese sweets several times at Ginza Matsuya, but I've used them.
It was my first time to go to the Ginza Main Store.

It's a very splendid and elegant atmosphere.

Discover a bun called Tokyo Ginza Anmo! This seems to be a limited product.
It looks good as a souvenir for homecoming~!
Kuri Gagaku and apple fruits are limited to season.

RIMG5260.JPG RIMG5270.JPG

Both "Ginza Anmo" and "Kuri Gagaku"
It is surprisingly moist (the dough and bean paste).
However, it is delicious with elegant sweetness~ (*^^*)

The apple fruit is not a smooth jelly, not a smooth jelly.
It feels like a hardened apple.
You can taste real apples with a rough texture.

There is a tea dormitory on the second floor, and above the restaurant "Ginza Shoto Iki" is a Japanese restaurant.
There is also a kaiseki shop "Shoto" (4th, 5th and 6th floors).

Next time at the tea dormitory, I would like to have fresh confectionery (*^^*)

We received permission from the public relations person to shoot and received a business card.

200 years ago in Chuo-ku, the streets of Edo were spreading.

[Koedo Itabashi] Nov. 19, 2010 18:00

"What is this?"

I breathe in front of the work that connects with zuzui in front of me.

About 200 years ago. A picture scroll that shows the streets of Edo in 1805 (2nd year of culture).

It is "Heedai Shoran".

 

The main street from Kanda Imagawa Bridge, the center of Edo in Hana, to Nihonbashi, overlooking Fuji in the distance.

The hustle and bustle of the streets are overlapping Machiya, the noise of people coming and going.

It seems to be transmitted to the smell of life.

The detailed description of the main street spreads in a long space unique to emakimono.

 

This picture scroll is housed at the National Museum of Asian Art in Berlin, and displays reproductions that are 1.4 times larger than the real one.

The place is the Nihonbashi Sanzen Echizen Concourse. Right next to the ticket gate of "Mitsukoshimae Station" on the subway Ginza Line and Hanzomon Line. In terms of the ground entrance number, it is between A3 and A5.

 

"What is this power?"

In 1805, the general of the time was Ienari Tokugawa.

A shining scene of culture and Bunsei, which can be said to be the mature period of Edo culture.

An overwhelming flow of people. A number of long-established stores that remain today.

You are drawn into the expressions and gestures of the people who are drawn.

I feel like I'm walking in the gorgeousness of the town of Edo.

 

Animals include dogs, cats, horses, cows, one monkey and two hawks.

Why don't you look for a monkey and a hawk as a clue to see the picture scroll?

 

We will return to the ground and look at the streets 200 years from now.

From Nihonbashi, walk along Chuo-dori toward JR Kanda Station.

Imagawa Bridge does not exist at present because the former Ryukan River has been reclaimed.

Instead, "Imagawa Bridge Origin" is set up in front of HONMA GOLF.

From here, let's look back on the Nihonbashi area.

What kind of impression does the scenery of the town appear in the eyes walking in the picture scroll?

 

 

 

The night view is beautiful! Anniversary dinner for teppanyaki roin

[Mapo ★] Nov. 10, 2010 16:30

The anniversary of my birthday is always French and Italian.
Occasionally, I changed my taste and tried to make it teppanyaki.

Teppanyaki called Loin is located on the 32nd floor of Hotel New Hankyu in Tsukiji.
It is an iron plate grilling course while watching the night view, where you can see the Rainbow Bridge.

The appetizer is sesame tofu. My husband was not good at scallops and had him change it, but it was foregras!
It's light and very delicious ~ (* ^^ *) Heart bread is also cute!

R0014970.JPG R0014971.JPG

Bried vegetables and kob salad. All the baked vegetables were well cooked (*^^*)

R0014972.JPG R0014974.JPG


And the main meat is A5 rank Japanese black beef serloin 150g.
The garlic chip was very delicious, but I forgot to take a picture (^^;
It's a delicious meat that matches red wine.

R0014975.JPG R0014973.JPG

Soy sauce flavored roasted sprouts and garlic rice that was changed for an additional fee
There were also red soup and pickles!

R0014977.JPG R0014980.JPG

R0014981.JPG R0014979.JPG

And this time, we went to the lounge and coffee and dessert. I change my mood (*^^*)
It was a melon sherbet (*^^*)

R0014982.JPG  R0014984.JPG 

With this, 8800 yen per person is advantageous ~ (* ^^ *)
It was about 25,000 yen for two people because of drinking wine and additional charges!

This plan is the 8,800 yen plan of the site called Ozmall (Ozmoll), which is often used.
I'm surprised that there are plans of 8,800 yen for various shops.

It was a little mature, material-oriented dinner was also quite good.★
