Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

I found a glossy Akebi (Kidori) at a nearby supermarket. Did you sneak up to the next side in autumn without noticing in the harsh summer heat? It is the beginning of the last week of September, when autumn is dark. 。 What happened to be "something delicious" when it cools down?

I visited Mr. Nakajima from Ginza today. "Kappo cuisine Nakajima" is a long-established store that was founded in 1931 for 80 years, and is known as the first chef of the Lushan Jin Hoshigaoka Tea Dormitory (the founder of the Lushan Jin no Hoshigaoka Tea Dormitory) and is now the third generation.

This "Shokado" is a place where Nakajima can easily enjoy it.
3,150 yen is worth a price with seasonal Shokado Zen with sashimi, soup and dessert. Today, I went through a private room and enjoyed a relaxing and late lunch. Chrysanthemum is the one in the bowl of Yuba and Kyoimo, the combination of okura, and the pot of pots. I'm sorry to get it in a jewelry box that seems to be trapped in the season. It's a luxurious time that satisfies the sight and taste at the same time. The dessert is babaroa with figs and white miso.

It is recommended when you are thinking of a little elegant lunch in Ginza. When I was an employee. I remember that I was pleased when I introduced a female customer.

A stone monument that attracts your eyes at the entrance of the shop says "Yoze ..." (from now on Kannon Michi). I heard that it was originally on the Mt. Koya-san pilgrimage route. Why don't you take a step in meeting the taste of dishes that make use of fresh ingredients?

Internet bookstores are booming these days, but once a week we look at bookstores. Today we go to Ginza Kyobunkan. It's one of my favorite bookstores.
Kyobunkan is a publisher and bookstore of Christianity-related books founded in 1885. The current building is a building with an atmosphere in Ginza, which has a classic feeling that was designed by Antonin Raymond in 1933.

First, find a hot spring guide to travel at the magazine section on the 1st floor, and then go to the Japanese book section on the 2nd floor. Next to the new book, the "Now is Kuniko Mukoda" fair is being held. (Thirty years after his death) There is also a corner on the theme of seasonal current affairs, and I feel again that the bookstore is a space that shows the "condensed present (now)". It's one of the things you don't have in online bookstores. It's fun to look around the bookstore's shelf, so time has passed before I notice it. My legs and eyes are tired and I want to take a break. This cafe is perfect for such a break. To the counter seat by the window overlooking Ginza Street. Blend (480 yen) and cake (240 yen). While wrapped in the scent of coffee (the coffee here is ground after listening to the order) It is a time of blissful relaxation that you can see without reading the book you bought, turning around Ginza Street or seeing cars.

Considering the good location, it's strange that I've never met full. Coffee is delicious and the price is very conscientious in terms of location, and the clerk is calm and the atmosphere is good. It's a secret place.

It is recommended not only for reading the book you bought, but also for small meetings and meetings. (I don't want it to be too crowded, so I don't want it to be too famous.)

　Today is Friday.　I went to the restaurant Iris of the Ginza Capital Hotel New Building.　The sign on the table says, "Today's lunch buffet buffet 1,000 yen day."　Wow! Wonderful! I went to the restaurant Iris right away.　It was past 13 o'clock, but every Friday is crowded with people who know that the lunch buffet buffet day is 1,000 yen.

　The menu served on the plate is on the left plate, baguette, curry of autumn vegetable eggplant, kushikatsu, sword fish hitsumabushi-style rice, and pork ginger grilled.　The dishes on the right are terrine, escabesh of autumn salmon, squid shumai, meat dumplings. On the plate in the middle, there are tomato sauce pasta made with pirates.　In addition, there are white rice, miso soup, etc.　I'm happy with the menu that makes you feel the season.

　Today's dessert.　Fruits on the left, pineapples, cassis cakes, matcha cakes, etc. on the right. Japanese sweets are made in fertilizer.　With this, 1,000 yen (including tax) has nothing to say that it is a profit.　It's made of silver that I ate too much just because it's delicious. I have to extend the distance of the walk ...　

 

　In the evening, all-you-can-drink at a conscientious price　　　　There is a menu like this.

Banquets are very popular rates, especially silver on weekends and holidays.

French patissier called "The Master of Sweets World" and "Picaso of Sweets World" Mr. Pierre Elme

In "Pierre Elme Paris Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi" of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi B1.

We sell glass desserts called "Emotion Dekvelt = Discovery / Expedition" for a limited time from 9/7 to 9/20.

 From the bottom: honey-flavored clambrulele, peach kiwi strawberry, hibiscus tea jelly, and sugar crystalase on top.

The recommended way to eat is to "divide the above crystalase, put the spoon to the bottom, and all layers at once ..."

　　　　　

hibiscus and honey are your favorite combination when you have flavor tea!

The sugar lid was crispy and it was very delicious.

 

 

Also, I was very worried about the ice creams I saw at the store of "Pierre Elme Paris Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi".

  (I thought it could only be purchased for delivery.)

It seems that you can take it out from one (I'm happy~)!

You can take it home, or you can immediately take it on a department store (if you are allowed to bring it in ...) Of course, please add spoon and cold pack. 

Ice cream is sold all year round, and sometimes new flavors appear.

It's a hidden famous restaurant that you can't keep an eye on for ice cream lovers!

On September 8th, one of the twenty-four season old calendar's "White Dew", it is said that "the autumn season will gradually join from this time", but the remaining heat seems to last for a while. However, it seems to be a little cooler in the morning and evening. ・・ ・ At this time, when the work is settled down and relieved, I still want the sweet taste. This time, we will introduce Japanese sweets that are perfect for relaxing tea time, matcha, green tea, black tea, and coffee.

The confectionery shop "Umekatei" is a long-established store founded in Otemmacho in 1850 and is one of the Toto Norenkai member stores.
By the way, there are five "Japanese sweets" shops that belong to the Toto Goodwill Association, three of which are located in Chuo-ku.
Tomoe Mochizuki is the seventh generation. The founder created North and South America Manju, the first baked confectionery in Kaei 6 (1853), in which Japanese confectionery was baked in a pot like a current bread kettle. Folding became a very hot topic in the year when Perry arrived, and it was a big hit. The second generation created "Gong-yaki" (revived from 1998), the sixth generation devised "Umemonaka", and the "Buran Nishi Manju", which was baked with meringue on the skin with black bean paste.
The founder said that he was "a love of inherent new things and an unrivaled sweet thing." As a result, it is surprising that all of them are long-selling products that have continued to this day.

I had a bun in North and South America after a long time at three o'clock. I heard that it was "the prototype of chestnut bun", but it was good quality, good sweetness and good quality. "I want customers to enjoy a pleasant space" and "Elegance in common people" are the legends of the shop. While feeling the mystery that we can get sweets created in the late Edo period for nearly 160 years, and the weight of the continuation of long-established stores, I was reminded of the transition of history for a while.

 

North and South America buns, French Ransai buns, and gongs.

The bean paste is sandwiched on a thin skin as if it was pressed on a gong and baked.

Shinkawa 2-chome, where Meikatei is located, was formerly called Reigishima, and it is said that the name of the place was derived from the establishment of Reigonji Temple in the place where the Honorable Reikijin reclaimed the reed field in 1624. . Reigonji Temple spread by the great fire of the Meiryaku era (1657), and was later rebuilt in the current Shirakawa, Koto-ku in 1658. It is known that there are many graves of Sadanobu Matsudaira and Daimyo here. The historically venerable place names are becoming more and more difficult, and this "Rei Kishijima" is not present now, but for those who like history and era novels, Yasunaga-do of Hiroshige Utagawa's "53rd Tokaido" You may know that there was a residence in Zuiken Kawamura. It is said that Meikatei was closely related to the place name so that it was called "Speaking of Reigishi Island" at that time. I still saw that he was so particular that he was described as (formerly Reigishima) on the address of the shop.

I found that I was using the name "Reigishi Island" on my way home.

It seems to be a relatively new building called "Regishijima Disaster Prevention Center", but I was somewhat happy and took a picture.

There is also a monument to Yasubee Horibe in Chushingura across the Kameshima Bridge.

It is said that "Kiri Sansho" and "Kiri Rhygimo" made by Meikatei only during the time of Betara City in Otemmacho are one of Edo specialties. Let's come to see the smart landlady again at that time.
