Speaking of chicken baskets?

[Diet from tomorrow] July 29, 2009 16:00

Speaking of chicken baskets, "candle" (Ginza 7-3-6 B1).

Chicken basket that is said to be the most delicious in the world.

When expressed in words, "the outside is crisp, the inside is juicy."

It will be a simple expression, but please try it first.

If you like chicken, I promise you never regret it.

 

 

Enjoy authentic Indian court cuisine in Ginza! Large mahar

[Mapo ★] July 26, 2009 23:10

It is a full-fledged restaurant with the catchphrase that you can enjoy authentic Indian court cuisine.

It seems that there are some in Tokyo, but there are two in Ginza. There is a main store in 8th Street.
Marronnier Gate store is having a buffet lunch for 1000 yen in commemoration of the opening.

But I don't like beans and don't like summer vegetables.
Three kinds of curry can only be eaten with chicken keema curry (laughs).

The roasted egg of Indian vegetables was delicious.
One kind of curry is sad, so roast eggs in a curry bowl (^^;

Curry is also delicious, but Nan is quite delicious.
I will compete for the 1.2th place among Nan I've eaten so far.

RIMG0538.JPG RIMG0537.JPG

Nan's delicious curry yasan doesn't feel like eating rice.
There were also Koshihikari white rice and saffron rice.

It's a salad, a chickpea, or a tandori chicken.
There were a lot of things, but I ate it little by little.
A mint called Fennel, which was next to the cash register on the way home?
It seems to help digest the stomach, but it was bitter and strange (>_<)

After about two weeks, I went to the Ginza Main Store.
The Ginza main store has a buffet lunch of 2000 yen only on Saturdays and Sundays.

I could only eat one kind of curry, but I didn't have a 2,000 yen buffet (^^;
I wonder if it was a normal lunch of 1000 yen. It also comes with dessert.
However, the buffet at this main store was accompanied by a drink.

The Marronnier Gate store was cut to make it easier to eat.
The Ginza main store comes out with Nan as large. 、

RIMG0659.JPG  RIMG0660.JPG

Nan is still delicious.
Actually, it was curry yesterday, so I didn't want to eat that much curry.
It's like Nan came to eat (^^;

RIMG0661.JPG  RIMG0662.JPG 

Overall, the Marronnier Gate on weekdays is richer and more cost-effective.
If you want to eat curry in Ginza, by all means (*^^ *)

The Nichirei Higashiginza Building is located on the northwest side of Kachidokibashi.

There is a Nichirei corner on the first floor of the building.

From the main street, it is difficult to see how it is sold, but as soon as you enter the building, you can see it.

We have Nichirei Foods products for sale to employees, but the general public can also buy them.

Except for high-quality Western food, it can be purchased at a 20% discount on the list price.

It's also fun to reserve it and add one item to the dinner menu.

It's a very abundant assortment, so I think it's a good idea to stop by after asking for Time Dome Akashi and Namishi Inari.

※From June 2009, there is also a diabetic diet as a "calorie navigator" series.

※Cookies at Hotel Okura and the Imperial Hotel are 5% to 10% discount.

※There is also a frozen bread in Europe.

            Tsukiji, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 6-19-20

Participated in Nihonbashi Long-established Relay Tour (VOL.3)

[Satsuki Yanagi] July 21, 2009 12:00

This is a continuation from the long-established relay tour of Nihonbashi (VOL.2).

Next, I went to a visit to Ninben, which was not included in the original schedule.

cuteNinben

 It is a large store that has been in business since the Edo period since Genroku 12 (1699) to 310 years.

He is a senior managing director who was happy, smiling, and friendly to sudden visitsdownwardleft.

pcHP: http://www.ninben.co.jp/ Click on several places in the image of the store on the top page to see the inside of the store! )

On the basement floor, there are very valuable materials and ukiyo-e, such as the famous "Japan (even in the world) first gift certificate" and "No cash value", which tell the 3rd century of "Ninben". He explained it interesting but interestingly.

secretWhen the Satsuma and Choshu clan of earlate Tokugawa shogunate was active (),sign02 he forcibly came to borrow money and left a borrowed book ...

In addition, Shinpachi Nagakura of Shinsengumi came and asked the store to write a certificate stating that "I want you to borrow money" and put a borrowed book ... ... ...

In each case, it was very interesting to see if the money came back coldsweats02... Akudoi and the story that really happened.happy01

shinise18.jpgThis is an ukiyo-e painting depicting a real restaurant in Nihonbashi, which is familiar with the story of "Momokawa" in rakugo. I'm embarrassed that my memory is not clear, but ... Kuniyoshi Utagawa's work ...

secretThe story ear"Momokawa" is a restaurant that the Shogunate used for entertainment when he arrived at Perry in late Tokugawa shogunate, and was close to Ninben-san and near the current Fukutoku Inari Shrine.

Next is lunch at Kappo cuisine Toyoda, which I was really looking forward to.notes

cuteIt's Kappo cuisine.

shinise22.jpg  pchttp://gwill.co.jp/toyoda/index.html         This is also a long-established store that has continued since Bunkyu 3 (1863). “Nihonbashi Tour” pcwebsite: http://www.ninben.co.jp/meguri/ Representative of Nihonbashi Producer Guide Haruki Kawasaki & 7 participants, a total ofheart02 eight people were invited to a guest room called "Autumn Leaves" with a dug kotatsu that is nice to shoewalk tired from the shoji door.shinise20.jpg shinise21.jpg             Shortly after the meal was served, the fifth generation young husband who succeeds the fourth generation husband and holds the current kitchen knife: Mr. Toru Hashimoto came and explained it.                                  secretAfter studying at another long-established Japanese restaurant, the earyoung husband entered his parents' home "Toyoda" and later served as the chef of the Japanese ambassador's residence in Germany. Also, as a specialty of young husbands, "Hamo cuisine" and "Edomae Anako white grilled" are always famous.diamond              

  "Toyoda" opened a sushi restaurant on the fish shore of Nihonbashi in 1863, and then set up a store in Honishi-cho and moved to its current location.                        cameraThe disciples are showing photos of the stores of "Toyoda Shokudo" and "Gravel Cooking" around 1897, and those who brought celebration when newly built in Honishi-cho in 1872 It is "Sawayama Mochigo Book" (← How to name the list is smartwink).                                                  

secretI don't know, earand "Toyoda" was also damaged bysign02 the Satsuma / Choshu clan in late Tokugawa shogunate, Shinsengumi, etc., and the borrowed letter was left, and it is unknown whether it was refunded ... sadIt was. Then, when I was operating at a stall on the Nihonbashi Fish Bank, a sushi restaurant, for example, asked for "bonito, grip,"sign01 and it seems that 6 sticks came out (currently there are many 2 sticks, 1 stick There is also a place).     

The dishes include sashimi, Saikyo-yaki, cooking of ganmodoki and root vegetables, tempura, fried chicken of "Toyoda" specialty Shiba shrimp, etc. ... Iheart04 imagined the strong taste of Edo-mae, but it was a delicious neat dish that was not light despite the Kansai style, with clear soup that worked everywherehappy02shinise19.jpg               

It was dissolved after the meal was over.                                 This time, I participated for the first time, but I realized once again that the Nihonbashi area, which usually walks aroundshoe, really only the surface.                               It was a tour that was very interesting, fun, and valuable, listening to the stories of the shop people, showing things that you could not usually see. I wish I had more time ... I honestly thought.                                                         

Also, I was a participation by one person ... The other six of me were friends from Chiba, but weepI was really impressed that I was able to talk to me like a friend without separation and have fun together on that day Thank you very much to everyone who came together.                  

Finally, this "Nihonbashi Long-established Relay Tour" is very flairrecommended.happy01 

 

 

 

The metabolism is also improved with ginger syrup in Ginza!

[Mapo ★] July 16, 2009 18:00

"Ginza's Ginger" was drawn by this word.
Ginger syrup sold in Ginza Matsuya is fluttered (laughs)
Ginger syrup of confiture eprovance.

It was a mango when I drunk a small paper cup that I received "Please ...".

I don't like mango very much, but it's mellow and delicious.
And the ginger is really good.
"There are many people who put ginger in tea these days, but the hassle of doing ginger ..."
It was like that, so when I talked about drinking ginger tea every day for another year and a half.
I tried various things one after another to see if I thought I liked ginger quite a lot (^^;

★Barsamico vinegar ... I'm drinking apple vinegar now, so it may be good instead.
★Strawberry ... it was broken by carbonic acid. It's easy to drink, but strawberries are not good.
★Plain: It feels like a cold candy. It's delicious and you can put it in black tea.

When it gets hot, the hot ginger black tea before the bath is also hard.
The cold mango ginger juice may also be good.

By the way, after tasting 4 cups, I happened to go to try slimming esthetics.
The amount of sweating was reduced by 500g (laughs).

I bought a mango that day. I tried various things, but it's delicious to break with milk.

RIMG0202.JPG  RIMG0362.JPG

And at a later date, I went to the main store in Ginza to buy souvenirs for homecoming.
On this day, souvenirs and for myself, dry ginger and seasonal peach ginger.

RIMG0398.JPG

Dry Ginger was perfect with black tea!
The ginger is quite tight and denty. If you drink before taking a bath, you will sweat unusually.★
When I used this, the frozen ginger was not enough.

Peach is not so tight with ginger, and this is also delicious if you break it with milk!
And I found it better with milk tea than mango.
 
By the way, confiture is a French jam.
There are also duckworths and macaroons across the confiture.
Now I'm stuck in Duckworth, so I bought two kinds!

RIMG0394.JPG  RIMG0375.JPG

The dough is crisp, but it is not hard, and it has a strong meringue flavor!
The flavor of eggs is good, and the jam matches perfectly.
I thought that fig jam would fit surprisingly well with coffee.
After all, the classic chocolate and orange is the best!

RIMG0370.JPG  RIMG0371.JPG

When I talked about the correspondent blog, I was happy to have permission to shoot inside the store.
Up to 2 kinds of Duckworths you haven't bought! Thank you (*^^*)
Next time, let's go to the cafe!

As expected, the long-established juicy taste ~Senbikiya fruit parlor ~

[Ken] July 14, 2009 12:00

On a sultry Sunday afternoon, I went to Senbikiya Fruit Parlor on the 2nd floor of Mitsui Tower in Nihonbashi in search of refreshing sweetness.

ck0918-07141.jpg

In the Nihonbashi area There were not so many crowds, but as for Senbikiya, I decided to wait in front of a famous store, about 15 minutes. If you wait, your expectations will increase. In front of the store, there is a signboard of mango parfait because it is the seasonal taste.  

ck0918-07142.jpg

Mango is sold at the fruit sales floor on the first floor of Mitsui Tower, which sells over 10,000 yen. For the common people, I was afraid of the price that slightly exceeded the meaning of the word "luxury", so I ordered a peach parfait instead of a mango parfait.  

ck0918-07143.jpg

But this is the right answer!

The peaches were fresh, soft, and made them feel the taste of the season, and fresh cream and vanilla ice were never too much forward, elegant sweetness. In order from the parfait, the last one that appears at the end is the peach sauce gently left at the bottom of the glass vessel. This is delicious again! Peach parfait that starts with peaches and ends with peaches is the main character. I was very satisfied.

Sembikiya was founded in 1834 (Tenpo era 5). I was able to feel the traditional taste of 175 years.
