Bettara City will be held (October 19 and 20)

[Mikazuki] September 30, 2009 17:00

The events I have been looking forward to every year since I started living in Nihonbashi are Setomono Market in August, Betara City in October, and Ningyo Market in November.

When Betara City comes, I feel autumn, and autumn is autumn of appetite.coldsweats01

Bettara City has about 400 open-air streets on October 19 and 20 every year, regardless of the day of the week, from around Nihonbashi Muromachi at Mitsukoshimae Station to Takarada Ebisu Shrine in the direction of Kodemmacho. There are many foods and alcohols, as well as pickles.

By the way, the children are very lively, such as scooping goldfish and shooting, and the mikoshi is being vigorous in alleys crowded like a crowded train.happy01

What I recommend is that you always get fresh and beautiful flowers at a very low price while there are many food shops, and that the surrounding shops sell bags and daily necessities according to the city of Betara. We sell goods at really cheap prices, so we look for bargains.

It's from 12:00 to 21:30, so why not come to Betara City, a feature of autumn, even if you return home from work?

 

 

 

I went to Liverside Autumn Festa

[Silver] September 24, 2009 17:00

  On September 18th, I went to the 2nd Liverside Autumn Festa.

The place is a section of about 500m on the Sumida River Terrace from under Kachidokibashi to Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, where many people enjoy chatting and eating food at the stalls as if they were spared the passing of summer. Was.

 I saw the clock again and again from the morning, and at 17:30, I jumped out of the office and joined my friends, and boarded the water bus operated by the Tokyo Metropolitan Park Association.

 It was crowded with many passengers (twice boarding at 17:10 and 17:50, capacity of 200 people each time).

We enjoyed chatting on board and the view outside the ship.

 Since it was turned back off Harumi Wharf, we will deliver a night view from off Hamarikyu.

 The Tokyo Tower and surrounding buildings are shining.

As you approach Hamarikyu, Conrad and Dentsu Building are brilliantly shining.

 The water bus is close to Kachidokibashi.

The green illuminations are bright.

 There is a dock between Mr. Jisaku and the back of St. Luke Building.

We regretted a short tour and asked the finale of the route "Passi!"

 Finally, Autumn Festa will be a feast.

 Some of my friends were also enjoying the night view and the festival around the table.

 The night is not exhausted. It was "Autumn Festa" where you were full of energy.

 

 

Antenna Shop 1 in Nihonbashi ★Nara Mahoroba Hall

[Mapo ★] September 17, 2009 10:00

There are several antenna shops in Nihonbashi.
As soon as the exit A1 in front of Mitsukoshi rises, Nara Mahorobakan is located.

There is a Sento-kun at the entrance!

 It seems that Sento-kun will come to 17.18 in September.
It seems that you can take a commemorative photo (laughs).
What does it look like when it comes to a costume?

There is also a Japanese-style cafe in the Mahoroba-kan.
There is also a persimmon leaf sushi set, which looks like Nara.

There was also a goods sales floor, so one clear file you are collecting.
It's quite reasonable at 280 yen per one!

 

Next year there will be the 1300 Festival of Heijo Recapitalization.
It seems that various events are being planned.

Town Walking “Industrial Course” Nihonbashi③

[Yurikamome] September 10, 2009 09:00

Wednesday, September 9 10:00-12:00 Tour participants 10 tourist association 1 correspondent 2 total 13 people 

Kiya (knife) → Nihonbashi Kaishin (Tsukudani) → Bunmeido Nihonbashi Store (Castella) → Shigeru Kami (Hanpan, Kamaboko) 

 

After receiving a fun and meaningful explanation, we had a tour of the inside of the store and had souvenirs, and toured the Nihonbashi area, lined with long-established large stores that continued from the Edo period to the beginning of the Showa era as Japan's first fish market.

2009_090909 Description at Kiya. JPG

Kubei Hayashi, the first Kiya Honke, was a medicinal dealer for the Toyotomi family, but the younger brother of Ieyasu's invitation, descended to Edo and opened a shop in Honmachi 2-chome.

Since the Osaka store was divided into two, the forest with the last name was divided into two and called "Kiya".

The difference between Kanto and Kansai kitchen knives in Tokyo has a round part in front of the blade.

                  In Kansai, the part in front of the blade is cornered.

How to sharpen kitchen knives  

    Use a commercially available cleanser to polish it.

    The angle of the kitchen knife against the whetstone should be sharpened while keeping the same angle until the end.

※ The chrome stainless steel key ring with a picture of "Edo Nihonbashi", which was created to commemorate the 200th anniversary of its founding in 1792, is still gaining popularity among customers, so we still create the same one and distribute it to customers. We also received it.

About 400 years ago, the beginning of Kaishin was dedicated to the palace with the specialty of Ise and Kuwana.

120 years ago, he opened a store in Tokyo with goodwill, and since then he has preserved the taste without mass production, and still cooks Tsukudani every day at the factory behind the main store. Except for the stirrer, it is manual work.

I visited the clam Tsukudani factory.

The tasting of hot clams boiled in soup stock was very delicious.

Only the participants discounted the products of your shop by 2 discounts, and I bought a lot of expensive Tsukudani.

Nihonbashi Bunmeido

The birthplace of Castella is the Iberian Peninsula, Spain.

In 1571, a Portuguese ship entered Nagasaki as a place of trade.

In 1592, Toan Murayama presented castella to Hideyoshi at Hizen Nagoya.

After watching the explanation of the castella manufacturing process in the video, we received delicious castella and tea.

Shigeru Kami

In 1596, Ieyasu Tokugawa opened a fish market in Nihonbashi, and the Muromachi area prospered as a fish shore.

The first was Kanzaki Yachoemon, and later became Saburo Shigeru again, and the owner named Shigesa Daidai.

From the Meiji era, he took Kanzakiya's "God" and Shigeru Saburo Shigeru's "Shigeru" and called himself "Kanmo".

"Half-pen," ...

Shark fins are said to be three bales, and during the Edo period it was one of Nagasaki Trading's export seafood and was an important export source of Edo shogunate.

The sharks after taking the "fin" were traded in a large number of fish markets in Nihonbashi, and the beginning was made by Kamabokoya using the manufacturing method of "Shinjo".

The half of Shigeru Kami is still made of shark body and yam.

It is manufactured underground in the store.

It seems that he paid "Okamaboko" only for the throne of Emperor Meiji, Emperor Taisho and Emperor Showa.

 We had a taste of kamaboko.

"Oden" in the bag I bought as a souvenir was very delicious because it contains eight kinds of seeds.

2009_090909 Kami Shigeru Okami 2.JPG 

The above photo shows "Okami" which supports a long-established store.

While talking to us, he taught us the importance of care and attention.

When he married himself, he worked on the spot.

The fact that such a person welcomes us at your store reminds us of the importance of the connection between people who are lost, as well as the feeling of buying Kamaboko in a long-established store.

 

This course is scheduled again on October 7 (Wednesday).

We are still accepting it.  Please join us.

 

 

 

 

 

Peko Museum in Ginza ★During the event

[Mapo ★] September 4, 2009 15:00

In 1982, a long-established confectionery in Paris, Daloyyo, entered Japan.

Currently, we have opened a store in Tokyo as a group company in Fujiya, Daloyyojapon.

It was two years ago that the Fujiya Building on 6-chome was renewed as Daloyyo Ginza Main Store.

Darowaiyo also went to the main store when he went to France on his honeymoon.

It's a very favorite restaurant. Macaron is also delicious!

 

The other day, however, I was walking down the street behind Darowaiyo.

"Peko Museum is held ~ Admission is free ~"

I heard a call, so this will be a blog story! I went there at once.

 

There are many people like professional photographers and amateur photographers.

People who usually take pictures with mobile phones were very successful.

 

There are a lot of old Peko and rare Peko dolls.

Even if you're not a Peko mania, it's cute and fun just to watch!
