My husband bought me a souvenir. I'm glad~

La Maison du Chocolat (LA MAISON DEU CHOCOLAT) cake.


 

"Anturme Deris,"

Moist chocolate cake. It's very rich, but it's not confusing at all.

Ah, one more ... no, I want to eat about two more. 。 。

Walking around the town, encountering Edo Japanese sweets (Kabukiza Yukari)

[Dharma] September 28, 2016 14:00

Ginza 4-chome intersection "The traffic light changes-Voice of a female police officer at the 4-chome police box" If you walk a little along Harumi-dori St., you can see the Kabuki Hall of Fame, which was rebuilt with a cultural facility and a high-rise office tower. It is the face of Ginza, which leads Japanese performing arts and culture from the first Kabukiza Theater in 1889 (1889).

This is an introduction of a Japanese confectionery shop that is related to Kabukiza.

 

Ginza 4-chome Kashiwaya Confectionery was founded in 1890, the year following the opening of Kabukiza. Behind the Kabukiza Theater, the appearance of an old-fashioned Japanese confectionery shop. Be loved...It is a long-established store where you can easily drop in. The fourth-generation husband and landlady of the elderly protect the taste of Edomae. There are also delicious seasonal Japanese sweets, but the reputable "Mame Daifuku" is a highly acclaimed taste. Red rice gripping is also popular, and I went to buy a fairy on the equinoctial week. In November, he said, "Daifuku..."It appears in the famous store introduction book.

Ginza 6-chome "Soraya" was founded in Ueno Ikenohata in 1884 with the introduction of Eitaro's craftsmen from a tatami shop in and out of Edo Castle. Since the first generation was a member of the Kanto Sorayashu who follow the flow of the dance memorial Buddha, it is derived from the name of the store and the shape in the middle. It is said that the first generation was inspired by the story of Danjuro, the ninth generation who had a friendship, and sold out the middle of the burning skin. Seasonal Japanese sweets are also available, and Soseki Natsume's friends also appear as cats. Prior to 1951, when the 4th Kabukiza Theater was rebuilt, he moved to Ginza Namiki-dori St. in 1949, and made a reservation as "Soraya Monaka" in Ginza (telephone is also Ok), and a shop that is clear by pick-up. Savory burning skin and glossy bean paste...It is said that it will be packed in a plastic bag and will last for a week. (Reference: Takeshobo / Edo Tokyo late Tokugawa shogunate Restoration Gourmet & Shop Shihori) This is "Kuraya Naka" that men love and women long for.

That's all.

 

 

The Nissan showroom has come back! (Ginza 4-chome intersection)

[Sunflower Rabbit] September 26, 2016 16:00

The Nissan Gallery in Ginza 4-chome, which had been temporarily closed due to the rebuilding of the building since the end of March 2014.

On September 24th (Sat), I finally came back!

What is the name of the new Nissan Showroom?

"NISSAN CROSSING" (Nissan Crossing).

SR1.JPG

What is the first machine to be displayed?

I was very excited.

SR2.JPG thumbnail image

It was the new 2017 NISSAN GT-R NISMO.

It's cool.

SR3.JPG thumbnail image

Virtual reality that allows you to experience the running of GT-R with 360-degree sound and video

"Special Contents -VR Racing - (Special Content -VR Racing -)" was also very popular.

 

There was also a souvenir here.

Thumbnail image of SR7.JPG

The stainless steel tumbler is the final polish of the GT-R muffler (handwork!) I'm doing it

This is a work of a craftsman from Tsubamesanjo City, Niigata Prefecture. The price is still undecided.

When Edo Kiriko is placed on a stainless steel plate ... Nissan's symbol (playful).

Traditional Japanese chopsticks are lacquered from Wakasa, Fukui Prefecture. It seems to be very popular with foreign customers.

This is the former Nissan Gallery. What age do you remember?

Lion of Yamataka Shappo (Mitsukoshi Ginza store)

[kimitaku] September 16, 2016 14:00

 Walk around Ginza 4-chome, Akihiwa. Cross the intersection from Wako. 

A different atmosphere than usual. The head of the lion statue in Mitsukoshi is black.

 It's a great discovery.

 What a Lion ... he was wearing a big black hat.

DSC_1352.JPG

 It's not an ancient song of Enoken.

"I'm the most mobo in the village ... Lloyd Glasses like Yamatakashape."

I remembered the song of "Stylish Man".

 A customer who found a lion statue on a hat. Don't touch the hat, stroke your feet

Rush your face. It feels like there is more contact with the skin than before.

 

 From now on, Lion  

 Do you want to drink bura-Brazil coffee in Ginza?

 The lion statue of this hat 

It seems to be an event from September 7th.

From now on, meeting in front of the lion statue will be fun.

The original "Eating Ray Oil"

[Shiraji] June 28, 2016 09:00

 Do you remember a few years ago that "eat raw oil" became popular in the spicy boom? The larva oil of this Asian dish "Nanashin" sparked the "eat larva oil" boom.

 saisinn1.JPG

 

If you go at lunch time, even if you order noodles, a large amount of lar oil will come out on the cup in small rice.

(I will also give you a paper apron for honey.)

"Don't eat with raw oil!" It's said, and eats rice with a teaspoon of larva oil. Rela oil has little oil (about 20%) and it is Rela oil as a side dish with plenty of ingredients. It's more spicy than I imagined! But I don't know the ingredients, but it's fragrant and tasteful "eat lar oil".

 You can buy this raw oil as a take-out. (Surely 500 yen or 600 yen) For highly popular evidence, we also ship from nearby Pelican flights to rural areas almost every day.

However, it is in this lar oil and plastic container, but after taking it home, transfer it to a wide container such as a jam bottle and use it. Otherwise, a small amount of oil comes out at first, and most of the ingredients remain, making it difficult to remove.

In addition, the dish of "Nanashin" seems to be a dish that boasts dandandan noodles.

We don't like special spicy foods, but if you add this litter oil, you will improve the taste of one rank and tuna, such as commercially available dumplings and ramen!

It's a continuation of the last January.  We leave Koami Shrine to amazake Yokocho. Ningyocho has a variety of long-established Western restaurants. On this street, Koharuken, Raifukutei, and tamahide, a bird dish, are lined up. Near the Ningyocho intersection, there are Kiraku, Yoshimitei, and Imahan, and many shops are introduced on the Internet. Please choose your budget according to your preference.

"Tamahide" near Ningyocho Station on the Hibiya Line. The red frame in the photo was covered with glass, and there used to be a military poultry.

 

I recommend it as a souvenir

"Kyokasuzuke Uokyu" Ningyocho Main Store. I sometimes buy kasuzuke and go home, but it was very popular with my family, and I brought it as a souvenir at my place of work, but it was very popular.

After about 50 meters past the amazake Yokocho intersection, you will find Taiyaki Yanagiya. There are times when there are few people lined up, but there are many customers who buy it, so please allow enough time when purchasing it.

Walk about 100 meters to Shin-ohashi-dori St. along a slightly narrow street in front of the amazake Yokocho intersection, and "Sandwich Parlor Matsumura" on the left side of the street. You can also eat it in the store.

At the Suitengu intersection, the well-known "Ningyo-yaki / Zeitaku Senbei Shigemori Eishindo" and "Mihara Domoto" are known. Mihara-do has a wide variety of salt rice crackers and Japanese confectionery Western confectionery.

 

At the Suitengu intersection, you can see Suitengu, who has just been transferred. If you walk about 200m toward the Sumida River, you will find Tokyo City Air Terminal (TCAT) on the left side under the Metropolitan Expressway. The 2nd floor "Chinese cuisine Ryu Otori" Tantan noodles are popular menu. A little after 12 o'clock, you can get a line, so it's better to remove noon.

Kiyosu Bridge_06.JPG

If you take T-CAT further to the Sumida River, you will find the Sumida River Ohashi. This bridge is the only two-story structure on the Sumida River, and the upper part is a general road and sidewalk below the Metropolitan Expressway. If you walk to the middle here, the downstream side is Eitai Bridge with a powerful figure. On the upstream side, you can see Kiyosu Bridge and see the Tokyo Sky Tree superimposed in the middle of the suspension bridge shape.
