Platto Tsukiji's recommended products "Cool Furoshiki", "Three-dimensional postcard"

[Silver] July 7, 2018 12:00

 "Platto Tsukiji", a general information center of Tsukiji Outer Market, treats you with a smile every time you visit, and you can respond very kindly.

Today, I would like to introduce two recommended products from Plat Tsukiji.

"Fukusa" type "Cooled Furoshiki" which is used with cold packing agent. It's very elegant, so it's perfect for going out in Japanese clothes.

 Of course, you can also buy a regular cold bag with silver coated outside.

And the other,

This is a three-dimensional postcard of a landscape modeled after a shop outside Tsukiji. It's an artistic work.

[Silver] June 26, 2018 14:00

 I was walking along Kinharu Street and the color of the door was beautiful purple, so I was attracted to my eyes.

Papel is a shop for paper products such as stationery and envelopes, necklaces and earrings.

The design is good and the price is reasonable.

[Extra] Chuo-ku in Hong Kong I found while traveling

[Ino-chan] June 20, 2018 18:00

I went to Hong Kong at the beginning of this year.

 

The damp air that clung around the body, and the lukewarm wind that exposes it.

It is a fascinating big city that does not get tired of visitors, with its unique heat and fairyness.

Hong Kong-like landscape with a high population density, commonly known as monster apartments.

※Because it is private land, prior permission is required for shooting.

 

I found the letters "Tsukiji" and "Tsukishima" in the city of Hong Kong.

 

It is pushed to the front as a "gimmick" (gimmick) that attracts customers.

It can be seen that the town name of Chuo-ku plays a role like a brand in this area.

This is Tsuchiuri Bay (Tokuwawan) area on the Kuryu side.

 

There was a time when the words "Made in Japan" and "made in Japan" were uttered.

However, it seems that these days have been more fragmented.

 

In Hong Kong, which has both English and kanji culture, the characters "Tsukiji" and "Tsukishima" are appealing.

Isn't it expensive?

 

 

 

 

Izu Highland-so, Chuo-ku above the price

[Mido] June 14, 2018 09:00

Some people may be thinking about a summer vacation trip plan, but for those who want to stay at a cheap and good inn, the recreation facility "Izu Highlandsso" in Chuo-ku is recommended.

 What is surprising is the price of accommodation. If you are a central inhabitant of a ward or a person working in Chuo-ku, it costs "5200 yen" for 2 meals per night, and "4940 yen" for off-season. In addition, there is a 5% discount for groups of 10 or more. There's no way to use this.

 

However, because of this price, it would not be good for those who are looking for a luxurious and gorgeous trip. Some people may think that dinner is a little less. Therefore, it is recommended that you add individual dishes such as horse mackerel fried or shrimp fried to dinner. There are also special dishes such as stewed alfonsino and sashimi boating. (Reservation required by the day before)

Breakfast is buffet style, but the number of dishes is large and the number of accommodations is small, so I don't think it will be frustrated.

 

The rooms and baths were satisfactory at this price, and the staff were also kind. It's not a commercial somewhere, but I think it's just over the price. My family was happy.

Izu Highland is easily accessible from Tokyo, overlooking Oshima and Omuroyama, and there are many sightseeing spots nearby from the inn.

Capsule Toy of Hidetsu Tsukiji

[Asunaro] June 4, 2018 18:00


I found a capsule toy of a "turret-type on-site transport vehicle" that runs around Tsukiji Market in all directions in the out-of-office market.

In the cargo, items like Tsukiji, such as cardboard, styrofoam boxes, and tuna, are precisely reproduced.

In addition, at Namiki Shrine, a capsule vending machine with a 100-sha frame wooden bill is installed.

It's original and very astringent.

How about a souvenir for sightseeing in Tsukiji?

Gumclean festive~ the sidewalk of Ginza Street~

[Tokyo Dumbo] May 21, 2018 18:00

 The sidewalk of Ginza Street is clean every time you go. It is said that the Ginza Street Federation entrusts a specialized contractor twice in the morning and afternoon on the 364th, excluding New Year's Day, picking up trash on sidewalks, flower beds and tree-planting zones, uncollected cardboard, traffic lights, street lights, etc. It seems that if there is a flyer or leaflet stuck on the pole, it is collected together.

 

One morning, when I was walking along Ginza Street, there was a group working with unfamiliar machines, so I heard about it.

It is said that the gum on the sidewalk has been removed by a water jet on behalf of the Ginza Street Federation.

The black thing that came with Pochi Pochi is peeled off beautifully.

 

The machine you use is called Gumclean, which seems to be the machine that HONDA makes.

It means that the members of the Ginza Street Federation are always working hard to protect beautiful and fun Ginza. Ginza will not be possible in one day.

 This is the logo mark of the Ginza Street Federation.

The design is based on eight weights used in the silver castinghouse during the Edo period, after Ginza 8.
