The temperature in the morning and evening has dropped a lot, and it has finally become a taste autumn.

Speaking of a town with delicious food, it is Tsukiji, a food town.

The annual “Tsukiji Autumn Festival” was held on October 12 and 13 for two days, but this year it was “Economic support with deliciousness!”, The theme was “Food Bali's“ Food Banomics ”.

One of the highlights of the event is that you can rent seven wheels at a special venue and bake and eat the ingredients you bought at Tsukiji as they are! That's why the cover of the pamphlet is unique in which the word "food" is reminiscent of the seven wheels.

Even if you know it is delicious to bake with a net, you can't easily do it at home because of smoke.

At the venue where smoke can drop in under sweaty weather, in addition to limited-time premium beer, there are sales booths of delicious Tsukiji shops such as fried eggs of Shoro, Shumai of Koken, steak of Oomiya, etc. Everyone enjoyed the taste of autumn.

On the 13th, a large line was formed at a booth where saury sent directly from Choshi was baked on the spot.

And the other procession was a booth for the "bonito-bushi-shaving" experience.

Some of the children who touched them for the first time have missed them.

It was surprising that the men were also lined up.

The "shopping tickets" sold on the day can be used at member stores of Tsukiji Outer Market, but they have a ticket worth 1,100 yen for 1,000 yen and up to a lottery ticket of Dai raffle that wins Tsukiji's famous items.

Unfortunately, I didn't win the lottery, but the remaining tickets can be used until October 31st, so I'll come back to shopping soon.

 On October 12th and 13th, "marche of the Sun" was held at Tsukishima No. 2 Children's Park (Venue 1) and Sumida River Terrace (Venue 2). (Organized by the marche Executive Committee of the Sun)

This is the second time since last month.

Approximately 100 stores from all over the country gather, including rare varieties, seasonal vegetables, fruits, flowers, processed products, miscellaneous goods using organic materials, etc. It is a great attraction that you can listen to and purchase.

There are also hands-on activities and workshops where parents and children can enjoy and participate.

One of the largest urban marche in Japan, the appeal of the marche, where you can enjoy eating, buying, learning, and experiencing.

Every month, we focus on seasonal ingredients, but this month the theme is "grape and wine".

In addition to grape farmers, wineries in Yamanashi also open stores. You can also enjoy tasting.

The next event will be held on November 9th and 10th.

In October, the Kabukiza Theater was held day and night during the full-fledged autumn play season with Hanagata Kabuki, a young man-centered player until September, and the performance of Yoshitsune Senbonzakura, a leading actor. Today, on the third day, it seems that the popularity of the box office will not decline at all, and the "Oiri" tag attracts attention. Although it entered October, the temperature is 28 degrees Celsius, but the number of kimonos in the theater has increased. The first act of the night part, "Kogango Demo", is known for its splendidness in Kabuki, but Umeeda plays the first role. It's a dignified feeling that I can't imagine being the person who played the light snow princess last month. In the intermission of "Sushiya", I was called out to my neighbors. When I asked, he seems to be 90 years old, and when Kabukiza entered the rebuilding holiday, I thought, "I'm already impossible," but I'm really happy to be able to see the stage again at the new opening! He said.

The first generation Yoshiemon and the legendary 15th generation Hazaemon are also seeing them in "raw", saying, "The face is of course, but the mouth and the "ma" were good." . "Kikuyoshi Grandpa" is envious of anything. Well, I want to live a long life and be called "Takatamaba". "Shinokiri" is Goro Kiku, who is over 70 years old. I was curious about what to do with that light movement of the fox, but I didn't feel too old because of the help that I was familiar with the flow, and I was amazed at the "friend shrimp".

At the stand seen in the intermission, the Kabuki Calendar (1600 yen) appeared in 2014, and I felt that it was running low this year. In the afternoon, from "Torii-mae" to "Road". Please take a look at the hot stage of executive actors.

Chiakiraku is sure to contact you on the 25th, Ticket Hon Shochiku 0570-000-489 (10:00-18:00) This evening will start at 16:15.

The popular “Town Walking Tour” sponsored by the Chuo-ku Tourism Association has entered a good spot with the arrival of autumn. On September 26, "Industrial Course / Long-established (3)" visited Edoya, Ozu Washi, and Iba Sen in Nihonbashikobunacho, facing the old Nikko Kaido. All of them are long-established long-established stores since the Edo period, and are famous stores that have inherited the goodwill to this day.

From Kodemmacho Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line, cross Ebisu Street and head west along Daidenma Honmachidori on the old Nikko Kaido, you will see "Edoya-san" (pictured above). Various shapes of products are hung from the ceiling in the store and are spectacular. It is said that the number of products made of materials and shapes tailored to the application is 3,000.

In front of Showa-dori, there is a building called "Ozu Washi-san" (center of the photo). The shop is currently under construction, so the shop is open on the second floor. Receive the origin and product commentary at the Ozu Historical Museum on the same floor. It is a long-established from Ise-Matsuzaka, and exhibits valuable ancient document materials that tell the history that it flourished in the former Odenmacho 1-chome (current location) since the early Edo period and developed into a large store.

If you go east toward Edobashi, you will see "Ibasen-san" (lower photo). At the entrance on the first floor, there is an inscription of the Edo fan. The pattern shines as the base of the ukiyo-e artist, Toyokuni Utagawa, etc. In the store, colorful fan fans and fans are lined up, and the special fan with Doraemon appearing in Hiroshige's picture is a gem. In some cases, foreign women were buying fans. @ Akira Makibuchi
