Walking around Tsukuda in autumn

[TAKK...] Nov. 27, 2014 09:00

000.jpg

A refreshing autumn day.

I would like to go on such a walk, ask historic sites, enjoy the autumn leaves, and eat delicious lunches.

First of all, from the ruins of Shinkawa.

001.jpg

"Shinkawa is a canal that is said to have been excavated by Zuiken Kawamura in Manji 3 (1660). In the Edo era, it was used for boating and transportation, and both banks were first prosperous as a timber wholesaler and later a liquor store wholesaler. " -Chuo-ku Tourism Association -

Now it has already been reclaimed, and this Shinkawa monument reminds us of those days.

It is the birthplace of the Central Commercial School.

Dr. Junjiro Takagusu, a Buddhist scholar, visited Europe and the United States, and was established with the aim of fostering highly educated merchants.

The school building was relocated from Shinkawa, Chuo-ku to Kameido, Koto-ku in 2001.

It is a cherry tree on the Sumida River Terrace.

Cherry blossoms are beautiful in spring, but autumn leaves are beautiful in autumn.

Cross the Chuo-ohashi Bridge and head for Tsukuda.

Near Tsukuda Kobashi.

It has a taste.

After enjoying the scenery, head to Takasago to buy a lunch box.

"Yakibuta croquette curry."

First of all, yakibuta croquettes are very delicious.

It has a kibuta and is very rich.

The curry is very spicy, but the onion is sweet and well-balanced.

The contents of the croquette.

There are a lot of fine kibutas.

"Yamagata beef yakiniku lunch box".

The meat is very delicious and the sauce is fragrant.

It has volume and is reasonable.

 

It was a nice walk to enjoy a delicious lunch while enjoying the refreshing autumn leaves.

 

 

[Showa Doritanken Record] #01: Creative Japanese Restaurant (Ginza 1-chome) that feels the spirit of hospitality

[Dye] Nov. 22, 2014 09:00

Speaking of Nihonbashi and Ginza, many people think of Chuo-dori, but there are many wonderful hidden spots in Showa-dori, which runs parallel to the east of Chuo-dori, and its vicinity.

At this time, I often walk around Showa-dori, and I am fascinated by that charm. So, I made it into a series without permission (^^;)

 

The first one is Hotomeki, a creative Japanese restaurant that feels the spirit of hospitality.

The taste and beauty of the dish (* ^^ *), and the cost of the dish was surprised at the w (poo) w

The atmosphere of the shop and clerks is warm and fashionable, and it is really comfortable.

s09_01.jpg s09_02.jpg

It is located along Showa-dori between Takaracho Station and Higashi-Ginza Station on the Toei Asakusa Line, next to Ginza Ichi Post Office.

The Gin Toichi Pedestrian Bridge is also a landmark. It is about a 4-minute walk from Ginza 1-chome Station on the Yurakucho Line.

 

I visited several times at lunch, but I'm worried about what to eat deliciously. (If the stomach is bigger. 。 。)

Lunch boxes were also sold at noon and were crowded with many customers.

It is full of attractive menus at night, and it seems that it is often reserved.

s09_03.jpg s09_04.jpg

A juicy cod's Saikyo-yaki and a scallop cream croquette. Hamburger with a refreshing taste

 

Among them, the best choice is "Ginza Seafood Don"

The amount of rice is enough, but no matter how you eat it, there are more things on board.

Moreover, it was fatty, and when I ate it for the first time, the cheek fell! I thought it (^^;)

It seems that fresh seafood is purchased from Tsukiji, which has been cultivated for over 30 years, and unique routes from various places.

s09_05.jpg

Tamagoyaki is from Tsukiji "Marutake", which is also known at Terry Ito's parents' home.

Sushi vinegar is "Shobun vinegar" from Okawa City, Fukuoka Prefecture, which has a history of 300 years.

I've been to eat in a line for a long time in Tsukiji grounds, but Hotomeki's seafood bowl is more delicious! I personally think.

 

In addition, seafood bowls can be served with a meal or dessert of tuna, but the quality of this dessert is very high.

I have no eyes on the topic of sweets, but this dessert has exquisite sweetness and sourness and may be the number one in me.

Moreover, it looks so beautiful, so I looked at it for a while.

s09_06.jpg s09_07.jpg

The left is an apple dessert. The candy work is beautiful. On the right is another day, pumpkin pudding and persimmon compote.

The persimmon was so delicious (≧ ▽ ≤) bubbles made of lemon juice are refreshing.

It is said that a chef from a French restaurant with stars thinks and makes it. It seems that the content changes every 10 days.

 

At lunchtime, the above seafood bowl + dessert is ¥1,090, so it's a surprise price.

 

The friendly owner was raised in Chuo-ku, and his parents had been a lunch box here for more than 30 years, but it was opened two years ago as the current "Hotomeki".

The store name "Hotomeki" is a dialect of the Chikugo region centered on Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, which means "hospitality", so it is a shop where you can actually feel wonderful hospitality.

 

As expected, Ginza! But it's a secret!

It's been a long time since I wrote it with excitement, but I would like everyone to go to check it out.

 

☆Tuesday, November 25 11:45-It seems that it will be featured on the broadcast "Lunch Trip" (TV Tokyo).☆

 Address: 1-20-12 Ginza, Chuo-ku 1st floor of Yasuda Building

November 24 is "Japanese Food Day"-Tsukiji's "Kaishi Fujiki" lunch kaiseki lunch box

1. Nov. 21, 2014 09:00

Last year, "Japanese food" was registered in UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Property, and combined with health consciousness, it became a global "Japanese food" boom. November is said to be "Japanese Food Month" recommended by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, the 15th is "Konbu Day" and November 24th is "Inihonshoku" Japanese food day. That's why I visited Fujiki of Kaiseki cuisine It's right next to Mr. Honganji. I was guided to a private room with a digging gotatsu style. Would it be good for lunch? This style of stretching legs is nice for those who have become a little difficult to sit straight. I was so happy that I decided to have a beer with my friend. The first thing that came out was the assortment of sashimi. Rich that I don't think it's a lunch box sashimi. Did you make a mistake in the course? I'm a little worried. (Because I'm too small)

Alken Tore ★Italian in Ginza

[Mapo ★] Nov. 20, 2014 14:00

I went to Italian Restaurant Week again this year!

It is located on the top floor of the Nitta Building, adjacent to Ginza Corridor Street.

 

Wellness Italian, which uses plenty of vegetables, seems to be the concept.

At lunch time, an antipast buffet is 1080 yen!

The shop also felt very good, and on the way back, my companion also got a card with a free drink.

 

This time it is a special menu of Italian Restaurant Week.

One bottle of mineral water is included in the campaign.

 

Both appetizers and pasta were delicious, so you can expect a buffet.★

The inside of the store was full of girls (*^^*)

In the back alley of Hamacho

[Ryokichi] Nov. 12, 2014 09:00

This time, I think the store I will introduce will be the best information for those who like wine, especially Italian wine, and those who like procured ham and cheese.

IMG_7154.jpg

Vineria IL Passaggio is always secretly in the street behind Shin-ohashi-dori St., Hamacho 2-chome.

You can always drink nearly 10 bottles of wine in a glass. I'm glad that organic cultivation and specialty wine are served normally.

If you're lucky, you can meet one cup with a pretty premium feeling. All wines are served in good quality, well managed by the seller. The owner, Satake, is a connoisseur, so it's a good idea to ask various questions and get your favorite wine.

There are many possibilities for eating.

There are about 20 types of prosciutal ham and salami, and you will surely be able to meet something you have never met.

Cheese are all authentic.

In addition, shopkeepers trained at a number of Italian restaurants will prepare dishes with the special menu of each season.

IMG_5785.jpg

In addition, there is a lot of food. There are more than 30 kinds of bottles, mainly grappa, so you can choose any one by glass.

I usually start with a standard dish of appetizers, raw ham and salami, and ask for the recommended dishes at that time, and enjoy the wine as much as I can. And tighten it with pasta. A lot of after-meal sake (one cup) when you have enough power.

It is an irresistible shop for those who like alcohol.

 

 

Omelette pasta at a lunch book in Ginza

[Mapo ★] Nov. 6, 2014 14:00

Lunch passport book with a hot topic nationwide that the published lunch will be 500 yen.

Finally, the Ginza / Tsukiji version has appeared.

It will be issued on October 1 and until December 24.

It seems difficult to use Gangan unless you are a person working in this area.

2. If you use it three times, you will be able to remove it (*^^ *)

The other day I went to Ginza 3-chome.

Ginzaskebenengen

It's the name of the Dutch city, but it's a spell called SCHEVENINGENINGEN (laughs).

 

The menu is an original menu called Fritterta.

Baked pasta baked in an omelet style with meat sauce and eggs.

And it's 500 yen for salad and wine (soft drinks are also acceptable).

It's a surprise price (*^^*)

 

KIMG0281.JPG KIMG0279.JPG

 

I'm full because it's quite voluminous.♪

 

★Smoking is possible even at lunchtime, so if you are a smoker, check it out! Beware of smokers!
