  The hot topic "amazake" this summer.  Here in Ningyocho amazake Yokocho, a long-established tofu shop 

 

There is "amazake" where you can find products sold in Futaba at the storefront.

 

It is said that there are many people who drink it as a countermeasure against summer batter in hot summer. 

 

It's 200 for a drink.

 

  But why is amazake now? What is amazake winter? Someone thinks it

 

I think there are many things.

 

amazake is said to be 1 "drinking infusions" ... rich in natural vitamins and minerals

 

       ②"Japanese yogurt" to improve your stomach's energy and skin.

 

       ③I'm glad I'm on a diet                     It seems to be effective.

 

If it is so hot, even healthy people can suffer from heat stroke.

 

Why don't you review it as one of the measures?

Anago specialty store "Nihonbashi Tamai"

[Tsukiji Nyanko] August 9, 2013 14:00

Hot days continue. Speaking of ingredients for preventing summer batter, eel is famous.

Its nutrients are rich in vitamin A (retinolic acid), which is resistant to bacteria.
It is said that raising immunity is effective in preventing summer batter.

Anago, a friend of eels, has the same effect, but the fat content is less than half of the eel.
I think that even those who are not good at the feeling of stiffness can eat easily.♫

I was recommended by an acquaintance and visited the main store of "Nihonbashi Tamai" (Nihonbashi).
Using natural anago, you can choose from two types of cones, boiled and baked.
"Anago Box Meshi" seems to be a standard, but this time it was recommended by an acquaintance.
I had "Anako handbill".

First of all, it is vivid and beautiful in appearance, and is rich in fresh seafood.

The boiled anako is soft and soft and seasoned, and all seafood such as sea urchin and Nakatoro are fresh.
It was a luxurious "anako handbill" with an elegant taste and a very delicious taste.
Seasonal vegetables such as myoga and okra also matched perfectly.

It was a really delicious conger eel, so next time you can fully enjoy the conger eel.
I would like to have "Anago Box Meshi"
 

 

 

Healthy ☆Delicious ☆Frozen ice cream.

[Tsukiji Nyanko] August 3, 2013 09:00

I want to eat cold ice cream during this hot season.♫

There are many stylish ice cream specialty shops in Chuo-ku, especially in the Ginza area.
I also love rich chocolate, vanilla and sweet ice cream.
I'm worried about calories, so I want to choose the healthy one as much as possible.

There! I often use yogurt that is good for beauty and health.
★Frozen yogurt ice★

My recommendation is "Sno:la" on the second basement floor of Ginza Mitsukoshi.

There is only one store in the Kanto region.♫

It's an organic frozen yogurt ice shop born in Los Angeles.

The charm here is frozen ice cream, which is sour and refreshing but has a rich flavor.
Ice itself also has yogurt, pomegranate, and chocolate, so you won't get tired of eating it many times.

And vivid sour cherry, bitter chocolate, etc.
I love toppings full of American tastes♫
I think it's a taste that is strong sour and healthy (organic)-oriented women like.

From raw milk without fat and pesticide containing a lot of calcium, vitamins and magnesium
Sweets that are made with lactic acid bacteria and can be beautiful and healthy from inside the body.


 

 

Luxury time - "11-bo Coffee Shop Cafe BECHET"

1. August 2, 2013 09:00

When I was talking about "the number of old-fashioned coffee shops has decreased," a friend told me that "there is a shop where you can drink delicious coffee roasted in-house" is "11bo Coffee Shop".

Before entering the shop, the good smell of coffee drifts because there is a roasting room at the entrance. It's on the first floor, but the entrance is a little deeper, so if you don't be careful, you'll pass by.

One step further, old jazz flows quietly from the vacuum tube in a unified space with a slightly retro atmosphere interior, so I don't think it's the city of Ginza facing Sotobori-dori St.

Beyond the large counter, there are glass bottles containing coffee beans. Looking at the label on the bottle, it seems that you can travel around the world while staying in Tanzania, Kenya, Brazil, Guatemala, Mexico, India, Sumatra, etc. My friend asked for the usual Italian roast (650 yen) for "limited time" Bolivian Copacabana (800 yen). Every time you order, weigh the beans, grind them, and drip them. It is quite a powerful technique to pour hot water little by little from a copper pot.

He said that he had actually had tendon sheathitis if he was talking with jokes saying, "It's going to be tendon sheathitis." Now it's ready. What a cup is Wedgwood. We had the recommended Gato Chocolat together. I don't get tired just by looking at the hand of the drip that responds to the coming order one after another.

When the customer calmed down a little, we talked to a female manager.

It is said that the shop was founded in 1978, so it has been operating for 35 years, and the store name CAFÉ BECHET is taken from jazz Sydney Bechette, who was a fan, and "11fusa" is derived from the words of Confucius. In addition, this time I have a full-time roast (650 yen) and my friends have the same Italian roast. The next cup is white porcelain. It is said to be a hotel specification in Wedgwood. Perhaps because of my mind, the temperature of the coffee is different from the previous one. ・・ ・ When asked, "It is easy to cool for those who use sugar and cream, so the temperature is slightly higher, and in the case of black, the temperature is slightly lowered so that it is easy to drink immediately!" ! It's a great concern. Sometimes there are customers who say "lukewarm". ・・・・

When you listen to some nostalgic jazz flowing from the vacuum tube and look at the art of the drip, a quiet and luxurious time flows. When I noticed, "Oh, this time!" 。 It was a pleasant afternoon.

Next time, I would like to try '93 Peru (1000 yen), a vintage that has been laid down for more than 10 years. (In fact, I was ashamed to know that coffee beans have vintages.)

It's right next to Ginza 1-chome Exit 4, so if you want to enjoy a delicious coffee and a relaxing time, please take a look. Of course, we also sell coffee beans.
