Compare the macaron of Ginza!

[Mapo ★] May 29, 2009 08:45

There was a macaron vest 10 recommended for Nikkei Plus One short time ago.
Ladule, the first place in Japan, landed in Ginza Mitsukoshi last year, and then in Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi.
A shop that became famous for the movie "Marie Antwernet"
For a while, even on weekdays, just buying a macaron waited for 30 minutes, and the salon waited for an hour.wobbly

The second place, Pierre Elme Paris, can be bought at Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi.
It's just a macaron in Paris! There is a lot of cream and it's delicious.

The 7th place Daloyyo has a shop on Ginza Street.
You can buy it in the basement of Depa, but there is also a macaroon limited to the Ginza store (lower left in the photo).sign01

The 10th place Henri Charpantier is the main store of Cakeya from Kobe Ashiya.
There is also a splendid Ginza main store in Yonai Building in Ginza 2-chome.
The Yonei Building is a Romanesque building in the Middle Ages and is designated as the Historic buildings selected by Tokyo Metropolitan Government.
The macaron here is also popular.

However, these are intended for things that can be bought at department stores.
Without that, there are still many macarons in Ginza that will definitely rank.

Ginza Macaron at the Ginza West Hotel

This is also the same as Nikkei Plus One.
It was ranked 1st among recommended hotel sweets nationwide.

Normal macaroons are also delicious, but
Macarons made with honey from Ginza grown in Ginza are popular.
Actually, it's always sold out and I haven't eaten yet.

It seems that honey is not obtained very much nationwide this year, but
The honey in Ginza seems to be working hard, and there is also a newspaper on the bee project.

This year, Ginza Matsuya also sells sweets using Ginza honey.

"Miel" means honey in French.
The honey and lemon matched and it was very delicious.
We are doing honey sweets fair from Ginza until the end of June.

★Wako's Macaron (lower right)
It is a fairly large macaron with a diameter of 8 cm and is responsive to eat.

Recently, there have been a macaron boom, and many shops are making it.
I think there are still a lot of macarons in Ginza.
I'd like to report it again after excavation.

 

 

 

This is a palm rice

[Diet from tomorrow] May 27, 2009 20:50

Speaking of Hayashi rice, Maruzen, Brick Tei, and Shiseido Parlour immediately come to mind, but my recommendation is Ota Sanchi Hayashi Rice (Ginza 7-2-9 Hirayama Building 2F). It's made by a former Takara Jenne mom, so it's delicious. There is no mistake in my taste buds. Please come and visit us.  

 

Tsukishima means Tsukishima. It's not just "Monja".

[Silver] May 27, 2009 09:15

Today is no overtime day. I crossed Kachidokibashi and went about six months ago.

"Where was the cheap and delicious restaurant with sashimi?" Take Kiyosumi-dori toward Tokyo Metro Tsukishima Station.

 It was about 600m from Kachidokibashi Station and about 150m from Tsukishima Station. It's around 5:30 in the evening.

A young wife and a couple with children were already enjoying boiled fish made of fresh fish.

 Furthermore, going north about 100m, used bookstores. Here, in a little look

I got a book written by Mr. Munehide Tokugawa, the eleventh head of the Tayasu Tokugawa family, called "The secret story of Tokugawa 400 Years".

 By the way, I asked a question that I couldn't understand, such as "Where was the delicious lever fly shop?" I asked, but I am grateful to the bookstore owner who responded cheerfully. It is the bookstore in the town that provides such a warm and kind response. 

 When I walked while looking for it, and asked a high school girl, he kindly told me, "Oh Kannon ...."

The joy of finding what you want. "Fresh Rever Fly" begins to fry after ordering.

After holding hands with Tsukishima Good luck Kannon, the bad behavior of squatting in the back of a building in the early Showa era called "Tsukishima Nishinakadori Koban" was too delicious, and please forgive me for nostalgia.

 There's a public bath on the second floor here. If you ask, now there is one place in Tsukishima. There is only one more house behind Minato 3-chome, and most of the buildings here are tenement houses, and there was no need to have a bath, so they are now inconvenient. I thought it was necessary to cherish the public bath and the culture of the town. Well, take a picture.liverFry.jpg

 

 

A little break

[Satsuki Yanagi] May 21, 2009 18:00

 I am the only one who feels that the popularity of the Nihonbashi area has increased over the past few years?sign02

The average age of visitors seems to be slightly younger ...

 

In Nihonbashi, one of the shops I would recommend when I want to take a break during shopping or strolling is "I want to take a break" ... "Yamamotoyama's Nihonbashi Main Store.

yamamotoyama5.jpgThe motto is "I receive a heartfelt smile" of our customers.

 

In one corner of the shop, there is a relaxing place (Irori seat) with tsukubai, lanterns and Jizo-san.

A bench-like seat is placed around Irori and a brazier, and a cushion is laid.

 "Yamamotoyama" uses sweets that make delicious tea even more delicious as "tea friends", and several types of long-established gem of Nihonbashi and Kyobashi according to the season (changes depending on the day) )heart01.

Unfortunately, there was not much time on this day and it was full, so I gave up using it ... because there was a menu at the "relaxing place" on this day at the store I took a picturecamera. Please take a look (we will omit the name of the sweets shop, please note)!

 

yamamotoyama1.jpg yamamotoyama2.jpg yamamotoyama3.jpg yamamotoyama4.jpgIn each case, a set of recommended sencha (daily) + sweets is ¥ 350 (including tax).

It seems that tea can be replaced ... What a nice, long-established store (large store) smart metersign01

We would like to use it comfortably with other customers who were with you on that day.lovely

 By the way, there is also a coffee room between the back of the shop, where you can choose your favorite sencha, matcha, gyokuro, etc., and for the tea contract, Japanese sweets and rice crackers from Nihonbashi confectionery "Nagato" are prepared ( There are also coffee and ice matcha milk).

Sea bream

[Satsuki Yanagi] May 20, 2009 18:33

  kandadarumu2.jpgDays reminiscent of early summer continue!

Nice to meet you, my name is Satsuki Yanagi.

 

Speaking of "taiyaki", "Yanagiya" in amazake Yokocho, Ningyocho, is popular in Chuo-ku.

It is a specialty even in a constant procession, but recently we have caught the information that a procession has been made to seek a new "sea bream", so we went immediately!

 

The shop is located on "Sakura-dori St.", which leads from Maruzen to Yaesu across Nihonbashi Takashimaya.

The name of the store is "Daruma Kanda". The flyer I received said, "From the head to the tail, it's hard to thin skin."

It was quite hot on this day (26 ° C), but the line is still ...

In about 10 minutes of waiting, I was able to buy thin-cut oysters.

(¥140 per unit)

kandadaruma1.jpgFeatures: Now, some sea bream fans are talking about (?) It's a so-called 'with feathers'.

When I tried it, the sweetness was less than I imagined, and I could eat it even on hot days! ! !

Perhaps because the baking method was soft, the wings were also soft.

As the words of the flyer, Anko was included up to the tailsmile!

Many people lined up purchased other products such as Warabimochi ($680 per pack) and Mitarashi Dango ($120 per bottle) along with thin-cut oysters.

 

Store: "Taiyaki Kanda Daruma Yaesu" 11:30-20:00 Open all year round

Yaesu, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 1-6-4

03-6225-2390

 

On the other hand, I went to Ningyocho's "Yanagiya" high-class sea bream grilling ...

taiyaki-yanagiya2.jpgThe temperature is 27°C, which feels quite hotwobbly.

taiyaki-yanagiya1.jpg・・... Even so, there was still a line.

At the same time 20 minutes ... finally purchased (¥ 140 per piece).

During the hot weather ...

This is also included so that Anko protrudes from the tail (happy)!

The baked color is pale, but it is crispy and fragrant.

The sweetness was just the right salt plumhappy01!

 

"Yanagiya" also has other products and is in the middle of ice cream (Kokura and vanilla for ¥150 each).

On this day, it seemed to be selling well during the ice cream!

This and all sweets limited to Ginza Bunmeido

[Mapo ★] May 12, 2009 10:45

Civilization-do was originally Nagasaki, and there was a lot of goodwill.
At present, it seems that there are about six civilization halls of another company nationwide.
It seems that there are various characteristics and limited items each, and I would like to introduce the limited items of Ginza Bunmeido.

cake Baumkuchenchocoladene

Baumkuchen, which can only be purchased at the Bunmeido Higashiginza store near Kabukiza.
It has a French luxury chocolate called Valoruna. It's 262 yen per one.
It's small and doesn't last long, so it's good to eat a little on the spot.

cake Castella of Koshiro Mori, a living national treasure

Koshiro Mori is the best technical advisor of Ginza Bunmeido.
A person who has been awarded the Food Meister, a living national treasure for food.
Only Tokyo Daimaru can buy castellas with Mori Koshiro's brand seal.
Dorayaki is also famous.
I went in the wooden box for about 10 days, so I made it a souvenir for homecoming.

 mori_k2.jpg mori_k3.jpg

cake The Silver Mikasa and the Moon halo

It's a sweet with a dorayaki called Silver Mikasa and a chestnut called Moon halo.
Both can only be purchased at the Ginza 5-chome store on Ginza Street.
The moon halo matches chestnuts and butter, so it's hard for chestnut sweets lovers!
Gin Mikasa is also a very Ginza-like name and has a moist and delicious taste.
Gin Mikasa went on for about 6 days, and the moon halo lasted more long, so I made it a souvenir for homecoming.

Limited items are also topical, and since they are civilized halls, the taste is certain, so they are pleased with souvenirs.
