New information! Keep an eye on [Suitengu Taian]-san

[Satsuki Yanagi] May 27, 2011 15:00

[Suitengu Taian] When I opened it, I introduced it on this blog.

"Suitengu Taian," OPEN

If you come in after a long time ... it's very popular, and customers are constantly coming.

There are several chairs in front of the shop, and some people are cheering on the freshly baked "Koho Blooming Taiyaki" on the spot.

I'd like some tea for free!

The owner gave me new information, so we will inform you as soon as possible!

 

From June 23 (Thu) to June 29 (Wed)

It seems that OPEN will be held for a limited time at "Shibuya Tokyu Toyoko Store".

It is said that it will handle demonstration sales of "Tayayaki" and "Tayanage Manju".

(Unfortunately, there seems to be no available this time because of the refrigeration facilities that are delicious to melt.)


If you live outside of Chuo-ku and couldn't easily go to Suitengu ..., please don't miss this opportunity.

 


[Suitengu Taian] What is the reason why I can't keep an eye on it?

Every time I look into the shop, there are new products ...

"Burdock Confectionery": It uses "Kinpira" instead of simply making "burdock" karinto, so it tastes and delicious.

Various versions of "Koho Blooming Taiyaki" also appeared, such as "No peanuts", "No bean paste (only skin)" and "Chocolate".

tai 4.jpgtai5.jpg


It is also a crisp and savory "Taian fried bun" like "Karinto" ...

"Chiyoko," =There was chocolate flavor (reservation sale)!


tai 3.jpg

With unique ideas, it's fun to make various proposals not only for new customers but also for those who visit many times!

Finally ... super-extra, NEW information ... (We have received permission from the owner properly).
A new product for summer will be available soon.

That's ... "Tayaki Parfait" (tentative name) ...
A willow that has no eyes on sweet things.

I'll report it again.


 

 

4 long-established stores in Nihonbashi collaborate!

[Mido] May 25, 2011 08:30

The long-established "Ninben" is famous not only in the Nihonbashi area but also nationwide.
4 stores
: Yamamoto-noriten, Shinoda Sushi Sohonten, and Nihonbashi Funasa
We have developed a collaboration to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Nihonbashi Bridge.
The product name is "Nihonbashi Furikake". (← Simple, clear and easy to understand)


It is said that each store brought their own products and made them.
"Katsuobushi" from garlic, "nori" and "ume" from Yamamoto Nori.
From Shinoda Sushi Sohonten, "Inari-san's Fried" and from Nihonbashi Funasa.
We offer Chirimen Crepe.


This is exactly the seasoning "We Are The World", a long-established ingredient.
It's a tamate box packed tightly (in Hikomaro style)

Of course, the taste is not delicious.
Even when you don't have an appetite, this alone will help you eat.
You can make it onigiri.

And most of all, the price ...
Price (tax included): 315 yen


With only 315 yen, this satisfaction, fulfillment, achievement, and climax! !
The word "deep taste unique to a long-established store" is the perfect item.
It is recommended as a souvenir of Tokyo that is cheap, delicious and absolutely pleased.

You can also purchase it online.

It can also be purchased at Nihonbashi Funasa.

A cup of relaxing-

1. May 23, 2011 09:00

The number of fashionable "Japanese cafes" has increased in Ginza. This shop introduced today is located in the basement of a building that goes a little toward Shimbashi along Azuma-dori, behind Matsuzakaya. The probability that people who don't know the shop will enter is quite low, but after 14:00 on Sunday when I entered with a friend I guided me, the table and counter seats are almost full. You can see how popular it is.


When you take a step forward with the smile of your husband and wife, you can see that it is not a very first shop and you can relieve tension. The owner who explains "recommended" is a good and friendly tone that is not imposing is the result of the accumulation of sales know-how in the businessman era!


Today, according to the recommendation of "businessmen", two people have "specially selected warabi mochi" and "cream anmitsu" SHARE. Both come with crude tea from Shizuoka (1,575 yen). (Incidentally, "rough tea" refers to tea that has not been refined by heating freshly picked leaves with steam, and is also called Namacha or coarse tea. I didn't know because I didn't study.)

As instructed by the master, pour it into a teapot and wait for 10 seconds and slowly pour it into the bowl, the scent of the deep tea leaves spreads in your mouth. Unexpectedly two people at the same time "delicious!" 。 The wife's handmade warabi mochi, anmitsu Shiratama, and black honey are also excellent. Even though I just had a lot of lunch, it is "Kukufuku".


In addition to the sweetness, this is the original shop, 11 kinds of cucumber sencha, gyokuro, matcha, and hojicha (both 1,470 yen to 1,680 yen with Japanese sweets), all of which are carefully selected from teahouses nationwide. It is only a specialty item that you have done. It seems that several people enjoy drinking and comparing tea in each production area. Of course, you can also purchase what you like.

It rained while relaxing with the cozyness of spending time in the tea room at a close friend's house. If you run to Matsuzakaya, you can go through the underground to the subway platform without getting wet.

A little celebrity "locally grown and consumed" in Ginza

[Vickie] May 23, 2011 08:30

Do you know "Ginza Honey"?

 

"Which shop do you want to eat sweets today?" I was playing with a personal computer as usual, but I found something interesting in the beautiful menu of Ginza Shiseido Parlour!

 

"French toast to taste with honey picked in Ginzashine"

 

Honey in Ginza? Isn't honey something that can be done in a place like the "Nantoka Bee Farm"? ? ? If you are interested, check it immediately!

 

Everything is an organization launched by an NPO called the "Ginza Bee Project", and it seems that honeybees are actually bred on the roof of the paper pulp hall in Ginza.                               Click here for the hp of the Ginza Bee Project http://www.gin-pachi.jp/0/topics/1.

Over the past few years, the movement of greening has been rapidly increasing in Ginza, in the middle of the city. I immediately visited the rooftop of Ginza Mitsukoshi, which appeared on hp.


 

"Ginza Terrace" on the 9th floor does not have a so-called "rooftop amusement park" like our childhood, but it is a very pleasant space full of greenery. It was full of moms with children and men in suits around.


2011051915000000.jpg"Terrace Farm" is located in one corner. canola flower, which was planted in December by a fourth-year student at Kyobashi Tsukiji Elementary School, grew quickly.

In addition, various herbs were planted in the garden area, and lavender was blooming. I was invited by this good scent, and bees were flying.


2011051915050000.jpg

I see. Even in the middle of Ginza, such a steady effort has been fruitful ... and after "study", the expectation for French toast is at its peak! To Shiseido Parlour while holding down the feeling of doing it.


 

This is "French toast to taste with honey picked in Ginza" (1,480 yen) The presence of honey attached to the baked toast! It shines golden.

2011051915490000.jpgA cute clerk smiled, saying, "We have prepared Japanese honey today." It seems that Japanese bees are even rarer than Western bees. I'm glad!

 

Needless to say, in an elegant and celebrity interior cafe, I literally tasted "like the dish"!

 

Even if we live in a city, we humans have to get along with nature even more. Thank you for the bee!

Tsukiji Standing Gourmet 2 Views-Ichikushi Tamagoyaki and Delicious Tunayaki-

[Dandy Pine] May 14, 2011 17:47

DSC02608.JPGDSC02606.JPGOn the opening day of Tsukiji, "Yamacho-san", which has a small shop in a corner of the rest area facing "Nami-dori", which is always crowded with many people, is popular with kushishi egg-yaki ("Kushitama").
It is a stand-up gourmet that we recommend during the walk around Tsukiji Outer Market. It's just the right size to eat while walking, and you can choose something warm and cold, as well as sweet and less sweet.

DSC02607.JPG
The price is 100 yen per skew. Outside Tsukiji, a fierce battlefield for egg-yaki, the only egg-yaki that is sold with reasonable skewers is here "Yamacho-san". By all means, please.


I would like to introduce some of my favorite food.
Did you know that Tsukiji is not called a sea bream-yaki shop, but called a tuna-yaki shop?
Fresh fish sea bream and tuna are also traded in the market, but there is only one tuna grill shop in the out-of-office market without bream grilling.

DSC02609.JPG DSC02610.JPGThe tuna-yaki "Sanokiya" has a small shop on the left immediately after entering the first alley from Harumi-dori St. side. There is a cute signboard at the frontage of the store, about one frontage, so you can find it immediately.
"Sanokiya"'s tuna grille accurately expresses the bulge of the fuselage, which is a characteristic of tuna, and the swelling stomach is filled with plenty of ingredients "Anko". The raw material of the "Anko" is Tokachi red beans, and the red beans use the finest variety called "Toyoho".

DSC02611.JPG DSC02612.JPGThere are two types of tuna grilling, "hon tuna" and "medium toro". It is said that the stomach of this tuna contains Kokura Ann, and the Nakatoro contains Kokura Ann and "Anzu". The finished tuna grill has wings like a dumpling, and the surface crisp and inside can enjoy the texture of the fluffy. By the way, "hon tuna" is 150 yen. "Nakatoro" costs a little more than 180 yen.

Outside Tsukiji, you can sample at various shops, but we recommend "Ichikushi Tamagoyaki" and "Tunayaki" for tasting.
