[Showa Doritanken Record] #03: Healing Aquarium (Kyobashi 3-chome)

[Dye] March 27, 2015 09:00

It's getting warmer and the flowers have begun to bloom, and it's getting a good day for a walk.

So this time, I would like to introduce some of the best shops to stop by when you are tired of walking around the city.

 

"Wine & Grill Kyobashi Terrace" along Showa-dori Street

It is a bar where you can enjoy lunch and cafes in the daytime and wine at night, and the exterior wall covered with greenery is a landmark.

From the A3 exit of Takaracho Station on the Toei Asakusa Line, go straight to the expressway for a few seconds (! ? Walk right hand.

I'm a little thrilled because I can't see the other side of the door, but let's go in.◎

  

 

The most recommended thing is the beautiful nature aquarium that spreads inside the store.

While watching tropical fish swim slowly, I forget that this is in the middle of the city for a while.

Inside the store. The number of fish...A lot of things I don't know (#` ・ ω ・ ')! That's right.

The bright tropical fish of blue and red are called "neontetra".

 

I go to lunch and cafe time, but I repeat it many times because the dishes are delicious and comfortable. The clerk is also kind ('@`*)

Lunch steak is savory and delicious, but reasonable

It seems that you can eat it in a bigger lump at night.

It was good to have tea only~

 

We also have a lot of wines, so I would like to visit dinner.

There seems to be a semi-private room.◎

 

During the walk, go back and forth for cherry blossom viewing, welcome and farewell party...etc

Chuo-dori is also lively, but why don't you be healed by a wonderful aquarium on Showa-dori?

"My Yangtze River"

1. March 19, 2015 14:00

The restaurant "My" chain, which offers high-quality dishes at a reasonable price by chefs who were active in the top restaurants, is like "My French", "My Italian", "My Kappo cuisine", and "My Yakiniku", which opened near Kabukiza, was also worried about this "My Yangtze River", but it was not easy to make reservations for the popular shops like other shops. More than half a year has passed since the opening in June last year, and I've finally come to see if it's time.

Because it's a week day, the reservation is easy, and it's Chinese, so I'd like to have many kinds today. 4 people.

When you enter the narrow stairs underground, "Oh! It's wide." That's right. It is the largest 117 seats in the "My" chain, not the "standing drinking style", which is a feature of "my" chain, but all seated style shops. (It seems that there was also standing drinking at the beginning of the opening. There is no "narrow table" where the seats we were guided are spacious and the dishes protruding. First of all, follow the instructions to order from "Today's Limited Menu", order some and finally ask for dessert "broth powder" and "I'm sorry, today's number has been sold out!" 。 "Eh!" I'm sorry. First of all, toast with "My champagne". It's just like the edge of the glass. If you pour it into 4 people, one is empty.

100_1581.JPG100_1582.JPG

"Raku spring rolls", "Kogobaba", "Soft Sher Club", "Beijing Duck", "Abalone and Fokahire", "Pork fin loquat black vinegar sauce", "Vegetable salad", "Fried rice" (I feel like I received a little more . ・・・)

100_1583.JPG100_1584.JPG

Shaoxing sake is also available for 5,600 yen per person (table charge is @ 300 yen). It was a satisfying lunch. In front of the Beijing Duck service, the whole baked Beijing Duck "see" between the tables and entertain customers with staff cut performance at the central table. It seems that it has become easier to make reservations, so it's recommended for those who say "I'm worried." At night, depending on the day of the week, you can listen to jazz and classical performances live.

 

"My Yangtze River" Ginza 4-10-10 Ginza Sanno Building B1 Phone 6264-3390

Business hours Weekdays from 12:00 to 14:00 16:00 to 23:00

Lunch at Beijing Duck in Zenjutoku

[Mapo ★] March 17, 2015 09:00

 

Speaking of Zenjutoku, Beijing Duck is a high-class Chinese restaurant that is famous for Beijing Duck.

Lunch is very reasonable.

The shark fin noodles and the Beijing duck set are 1,500 yen on weekdays.

It also comes with appetizers and desserts, and it seems to have been featured on TV.

On holidays, this set is 1900 yen with water dumplings.

Of course, there are lunch courses of 2850 yen, 5000 yen and 6000 yen.

Since it was a holiday, I made it a set with this 1900 yen water dumpling.

The shark fin noodles were quite large and I was full.

And Beijing Duck was still delicious (*^^*)

 

The shops seem to be in Shinjuku and Ginza, and Ginza is on the 6th floor of the World Town Building next to CORE in 5-chome.

Nihonbashi "Watasu" opened!

[Shiraji] March 15, 2015 14:00

 Four years after the Great East Japan Earthquake and the government's five-year intensive reconstruction period will be the last year.
However, with the exception of some infrastructure, recovery and reconstruction has not progressed, and problems such as work and housing have not yet been seen.
At this time, the media broadcasts news related to the earthquake disaster, but over time, even this unprecedented disaster gradually diminishes from the memory of many people....。 
But willn't it be from now on that affected areas and victims really need help? Even if volunteers with heavy labor and large donations cannot be made, it is important to remember the disaster victims and remember the disaster. I may be myself next time...。

 

 On the 3rd of this month, <Minamisanriku Exchange Facility> "Watasu Nihonbashi" opened beside Nihonbashi 1-chome Coredo Nihonbashi.
This facility provides ingredients from the town and Tohoku for the purpose of disseminating and exchanging information to support the affected areas in Tohoku, including Minamisanriku Town, Miyagi Prefecture, and provides learning support by university students. It is a base for disaster-stricken area support.
"Watasu" in "Watasu Nihonbashi" is not a Tohoku dialect, but has many meanings such as the meaning of the bridge between Minamisanriku and Nihonbashi, the "wa" of peace, and the addition of the circle of people It seems to have been put.

 This facility was established as a permanent base to support the reconstruction of Great East Japan Earthquake by Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd., after many employees visited Minamisanriku Town as volunteers for reconstruction immediately after the earthquake.

  

 Of the three-story buildings, the first and second floors are cafes that utilize seasonal ingredients from Minamisanriku and Tohoku, and "Watasu Cafe", a floor for eating and drinking and information dissemination, which transmits sightseeing and event information. You can enjoy "Watasu Lunch" with side dishes, tea with various flavors, and dinner at night. It is also said that sightseeing and event information are provided, agricultural and marine products, and reconstruction goods are always sold.
 The third floor connects the classrooms in Shitsukawa in Minamisanriku-cho via online, providing learning support for university students in Tokyo to provide supplementary lessons to local junior high school students, and reconstruction-related events and workshops will connect the affected areas and Nihonbashi.

 The recommendation of lunchtime at "Watasu Cafe" is 1380 yen, which is an all-you-can-eat "Watasu lunch" with all-you-can-eat rice cooked in eight Japanese and Western dishes using plenty of Sanriku ingredients, and bread with soup and seaweed. The contents are changed daily, but fresh ingredients from the four seasons directly sent from the production area are cooked and served in the most delicious way.
In addition, "Sanriku Seafood Chowder" 980 yen, "Sanriku Mekajiki Burger" 980 yen, "Fisherman Curry" 980 yen, etc. are used abundantly with rich seafood and mountain food from Minamisanriku and Tohoku. You.
All lunches are all-you-can-eat with bread kneaded with Sanriku seaweed? That's right.

 A variety of seasonal flavors are served during tea time, and dinner time is served with locally brewed sake and wine from Tohoku, with a focus on exciting seafood and fresh vegetables.

 The hotel is conveniently located a 1-minute walk from the metro Nihonbashi. When shopping or walking, while eating a delicious lunch at a cafe, read the free paper "Minamisanriku" issued by Minamisanriku-cho, pick up reconstruction goods, and think about the restoration and reconstruction of Great East Japan Earthquake once again?

Cheese on the table ★Suitengumae Main Store

[Mapo ★] March 11, 2015 09:00

Previously, it was a shop that opened at the cheese department at the France Fair in Ginza Mitsukoshi.

A cheese specialty store rich in European cheese.

 

When I heard that the main store is in front of Suitengu, I opened a good wine on the anniversary.

I went to buy some cheese for that.

All of them are too delicious~ (*^^*)

And crackers that go well with cheese, and 6P cheese I bought for a little tidbits or snack.

This is also very soft, creamy and delicious~ (* ^^*)

 

You can write the type of cheese you bought on the stamp card.

It's a nice service that will be helpful for you to buy next time!
