Kiboricho Gourmet behind Kabukiza-"Vomero"

[Apricot peony] March 23, 2013 09:00

With the opening of the new Kabukiza, the area around Higashi-Ginza Station has attracted attention from many people.
The current address is "Ginza", but from the Edo period to 1951, it was a venerable place name called "Kibikicho".
For this reason, unlike Chuo-dori, there is a Chozubachi with plants and medakas in the alley, making it a very friendly atmosphere with a downtown atmosphere.


While there are old famous shops and restaurants favored by Kabuki actors, the alleys with the famous Ochiai chef La Bettla da Ochiai is a fierce battlefield for delicious shops.

Coincidentally, in this correspondent blog, the Italian "Buffo" introduced by me, the pork cutlet "Nishi-eup" introduced by Ginzo, the "Tokuuchiyama" introduced by Maritsuki, and the stew introduced by Mapo "Elbe" are all in the same alley.


ck1203_130321 (2). jpgEven so, the most popular dish is the Italian "Vomero", which opened last April.
It's very popular enough to form a line from just after it opened.

Especially on weekday lunches, appetizers + foccia + favorite pizza or pasta + drinks, foccia is all-you-can-eat, and the price is just 1,000 yen!
It's very popular with men.

If you enter the open-air entrance, you will see a large pizza oven.
The interior is bright and friendly, and the young staff members are thrilling, creating a very good atmosphere.


I was with my two friends on this day, so I decided to order Bongore, homemade sausage rugu and oyster pasta with seasonal vegetables, and decided to share them.

 First of all, it's an appetizer.
Focaccia is all-you-can-eat, so it's already replaced at this stage.
However, I was surprised that the next pizza that came out was so big!
As expected, not only the dough that is impressed by the pizza baked in a kettle, but also the vegetables on the top are very delicious, and even though I am worried that I can eat it, my hands will grow.

While saying that, 2 kinds of pasta appeared.
The chewy and chewy pasta seems to be not raw, but it is delicious that can be addicted. The homemade sausage lag sauce is an exquisite balance with oysters as an accent.
Bongore had a good taste of clams, and I had a firm juice with the added foccia.

Finally, I'm very satisfied with tightening with fragrant coffee!
I'm convinced that there is a line.


ck1203_130321 (1). jpgThis area has many shops closed on Saturdays and Sundays, but I'm glad that Vomero is open all day.
The menu and price are slightly different from weekdays, but there are also lunch.
And of course, there are courses that can be enjoyed by two people at night and party plans.

 

One more specialty shop was opened in Kiboricho gourmet.

Hisasuke, it's not a person's name!

[Silver] March 22, 2013 14:00

With the "Guide Map of Kazuo Confectionery Association in Chuo-ku", we are purchasing representative products of each shop. runAt that time, a shop sells "broken rice crackers", and the bag says "Kusuke".

 Hey, I knew that "I call a broken rice cracker called Kusuke." sign03Speaking of which, I remembered that I learned such a thing from Kyoba Peony. According to the dictionary, Hisa is the same pronunciation Q. → nine It means that one is not enough for the perfect 10, so it is called this, and it is said that it is an industry word mainly used in the rice crackers industry. It's stylish!flair 

The "Guide map of Kazuo Chuo-ku Confectionery Association", which I always bring when I go out, is very useful. There are 38 merchants, so far we have visited 20 stores, put their receipts on a map, and used them as stamp cards. It's very fun. happy01 How would you like to join us? In addition, the guide map of the Kazuo Confectionery Association in Chuo-ku can be obtained at the stores of each member store. For more information, please refer to this guide from "NPO Chuo Net". http://www.tokyochuo.net/sightseeing/wagashi/index.html

 

 

Hot chocolate at Linz Chocolat Cafe

[Mapo ★] March 16, 2013 14:00

I've been to Linz shops several times, and I like to sell chocolate by weight.
I went to a cafe for the first time today!

After all, it is hot chocolate (*^^*)
I wanted to eat cakes too, but there are many chocolate-based cakes.
This time I made it macaron.

vanilla Bourbon and champagne.
Well, I chose a color that doesn't look like my blog (laughs).
But the taste was delicious (* ^^*)

The chocolate floating on the hot chocolate is also thick.

And I'm glad that chocolate is attached.★

I bought a rabbit chocolate for gifts and a chocolate sold for myself.

Beef stew lunch at Ginno Tower♪

[Mapo ★] March 15, 2013 14:00

It's Ginnoto, a stew shop that I wanted to visit here for a long time.
I knew it was next to Kabukiza, but in fact it was an annex.
The main building is behind it.

R0011305.JPG R0011298.JPG


When you enter, you can sit 2 table seats and 4 groups of tatami mats.
It seemed to be still in the middle.

There is also a beef stew lunch and a glass red wine (500 yen) as well.
First, I drank wine with stew ingredients and ate rice after the wine was gone.


R0011300.JPG R0011196.JPG

There are three types of small bowls, dried radish, boiled spring, and boiled hijiki.
We enjoyed the rice together.♪


It was a stew that has been handed down for half a century, and the beef was also mellow and delicious (*^^*)

THE MAGNUS TOKYO 

[Silver] March 11, 2013 09:20

 I have the opportunity to meet once a year and have fun chatting. This year, it was held at the location called "The Magnas Tokyo" on the 11th floor of the same building as Shiseido The Ginza, which was just newly built. This is open as a wedding reception venue, but I learned that it can also be used for private parties on Weekday Day. It was a weekday night, so it was an all-you-can-drinkwine Buffet style, and the price was about half the pricesign01 of a first-class hotel. I would like to introduce some of the venues and dishes, such as smoked salmon, prosciutto ham, various hors d'oeuvres, macaroni gratin, etc.

  There was also a shrimp salad, and the sausage with a crisp texture was also delicious.

CIMG1219.jpg CIMG1227.jpg

There were three kinds of dessertcakes, and wine and whiskey were also good.

The location is located on the 9-11th floor of the Fukuhara Ginza Building, 7-8-10 Ginza, Chuo-ku. For details, please see this website. http://www.themagnus.jp/access
