Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

I'm an Osaka wine importer.
I've been drinking wine several times.

 

It happened that there was a warehouse near my parents' house.
There is information about the warehouse sale on the net.
I was sorry that I couldn't go because I was in Tokyo (laughs).

 

In Tokyu Plaza, which opened in Ginza on March 31.
I went there for the first time the other day, but near the elevator.
When I found the word "Tokuoka" and looked into it, "No way?"
It was a wine shop with a wine food bar that Tokuoka is doing.

 

　

 

The store manager is from Osaka, so the story was bounced.♪

There are machines where you can taste wine with a prepaid card.
There were also 5 big chateaus!

 

 
You can choose 10ml, 30ml, and 50ml.
I'm glad that the glass is also placed for each variety.♪

10ml 900 yen for magic champbelltan.
I tried drinking 10ml 400 yen of Barololo for 50 years (*^^*)

 

It might be nice when you really want to taste a little bit.

  

And a few days later, I had four friends from the daytime (laughs).
While pinching the assortment of cheese and pickles
Glass wine was also abundant and I enjoyed it very much (*^^*)

 

　

We also sell cheese and ham!

March 31 I took a look at the topic of Tokyu Plaza that opened at Sukiyabashi intersection. It's been a bit calm since it's been nearly a month, but there are still many "watchers" similar to me.

There are 125 stores such as fashion, cafes, restaurants, etc., and it is the impression that a little town was created. Today's purpose is the cafe of Esquisse, a luxury French 2-star Michelin.

The restaurant has a little high threshold and I can't easily enter it, but I tried to bother you with the feeling of "What is a cafe?" There are a lot of cakes at the entrance, but this is only a take-out and you can't get inside the store. The Aschette Desale course (3,797 yen) is a set of Grand Desale (3 types), drinks, pre-desale and small sweets. From the Grand Desale, I chose Suffle and my friends chose seasonal fruits. Suffle is a "work" with the impression of "art" rather than "chocolate soup, chocolate sorbet, Teyuir" sweets. I don't know what the soup is in, but it's delicious!

　

　 

 

To commemorate the opening of the store, we had bread, which has become a hot topic, as a souvenir. Bread is also sold on the first floor of Wako Annex and is a quiet and popular product. The photo shows a set of souvenir bread, croissants and chocolates (excellent).
It may be a little "high" for dessert, but how about one of the GW town walking courses?

There are cafes on each floor in Tokyu Plaza.

Here's a very nice cafe in Kakigara-cho.

"SUNNY COFFEE" opened in September 2014 (Heisei 26).

Turn left at the Kakigaracho intersection on Shin-ohashi-dori St. toward Shinohashi, turn right in front of Toyoko INN Nihonbashi Ningyocho to several tens of meters.

A wonderful cafe filled with the dreams of a handsome husband and a lovely cute wife with a smile.

It's such a shop that you want to support.

 

From 8:00 to 11:00, breakfast with special bread sandwiches and toasts starts from 500 yen, and from 11:00 to 14:00, lunch with organic vegetable sandwiches and drinks starts from 750 yen (weekdays only).

I'm glad that the price setting is conscientious and friendly!

  

It is a small shop with about 16 seats, but the inside of the shop is full of cleanliness and the warmth of wood can be felt.

The polite and soft customer service of the couple is also available◎

Not only office workers, couples, but also women alone are comfortable and completely non-smoking, so it seems that those with infants can relax with peace of mind.

 

Not only coffee, but also morning, lunch, and takeout of baked sweets is OK!

There is also a sale of self-roasted coffee beans.

 

I ordered a cafe au lait and caramel banana chiffon cake.

Wow~, cute cafe au lait art!

The handmade chiffon cake was delicious with cafe au lait, a gentle taste with a modest sweetness and rich flavor of the ingredients.

 

It seems that water coffee is also available from late April. Umm, it looks delicious!

Because it is located near Koami Shrine, it is ideal not only for visiting but also for walking around Ningyocho.

It's not a prominent place, but a secret, but authentic coffee cafe.

Why don't you try delicious coffee, sandwiches and baked goods once by all means?

Eitaro Sohonbu, famous for candy, is famous for its candy.
There are 3 Japanese sweets that can only be purchased at Nihonbashi Main Store.
This time, I went to the main store to buy it!

 
The three are the tower (Takadono), Tamadare, and Amana sugar.
Eitaro's Nihonbashi Main Store has a coffee room called Sesetsutsuhana, so there is a cafe called Setsugetsuhana.
After having a daily dining table there, a tower for dessert.♪
The sencha came out together.
The outside is shattered with yolk blades.
When it breaks down, chestnuts wrapped in koshian come out.
After the sweetness of the elegant yolk bean paste, with a modest sweetness of Koshian
Japanese sweets with a delicate taste combined with moderate bitterness of chestnuts.

 

 
Since it is in a paulownia box in two, it seems to be good for souvenirs for entertainment.
There is also anecdote that Emperor Showa was selected as a souvenir when he visited the United States!

This is the rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as the thesis.

Futaba of Tofu is on the left right after entering amazake Yokomachi from Ningyocho Street.

It's across the taiyaki Yanagiya.

It was founded in 1907 and has been operating in Ningyocho since 1948.

According to the wife of the shop, "We have a lot of delicious and good health. It is handmade and made by the traditional manufacturing method. Please enjoy the taste of tofu. ・・ ・ Customers who are relatively old or who come to Meijiza or Suitengu often stop by. Pregnant women buy amazake, which is said to be good for their health, and children are asked for ice and soy milk donuts with tofu. " ・・・

The most popular are cancers centered on large "jumbo cancer" (products born from the third generation playfulness) containing carrots, cut kelp, ginnan and chestnuts. There are also vegetable cancers, ginkgo cancers, and egg cancers. Among them, I bought jumbo cancer and vegetable cancer, which is one of the most popular three, "Triangle thick fried". All of them were volumey and the deliciousness of tofu was tasted as much as I could. Jumbo cancer has a whole lot of it, and he claims it well.

For reference, "Oboro tofu" has a good balance of bittern, and when the sweetness of the beans comes out, it seems to be tofu.

↑I also have jumbo cancer.　　　　　　　　　　↑ This is also a vegetable cancer.

↑Okarasenbei.　　　　　　　　　　　　↑ Side dish, natto. It's deep in the back.

↑Momen, baked, and rag tofu.　　　　　　　　↑ Three kinds of bamboo tofu and hot water leaves.

↓3 kinds of yuba.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　The bamboo tofu sesame on the left is a new product.

It seems that many gifts are selected in the 3,000 yen range or 4,000 yen range, but the wife of a cheerful and cheerful shop will be kind and will take a consultation on Tsukuroi.

On the second floor, there is "Tofu cuisine Futaba" that uses the specialty products of this shop.

I went to Cafe Bar KayGee's, a shop I've been interested in for a long time.

The location is between Minami Takahashi and Chuo-ohashi Bridge at Shinkawa 2-chome, and the arched entrance is a landmark on the first floor of an apartment on a narrow road slightly from the main street.

Just looking at the record jacket displayed on the show window, you can see that it is a shop that is particular about music.

Cafe Bar KayGee's, was one of the places I've been wanted to visit.

It is located between Minami-Takabashi (bridge) and Chuo-Ohashi (bridge), along the narrow street. It's arch shaped facade could be recognized as a mark.

By only looking at the records displayed at the window, you can easily tell that the place is for the music lovers.

　

When you enter, you will hear a pleasant sound as expected, and you will be greeted with a friendly smile. (Owner Mr. Hotta)

As expected, smooth music and a warm smile welcomes you at the entrance. (Mr. Hotta, owner of the cafe)

　

The visit date was Saturday, but the lunch set had the same price as weekdays, 950 yen (including tax) sora beans and Shirasu pasta lunch.

The texture of raw noodles is delicious! It also comes with soup and salad. There is also a rice plate, and the menu seems to change every day, and it seems that there are ginger grilled and omelet.

The lunch set menu costs JPY950- through Mon. to Sat. which includes main dish, salad, and soup.

I tried Pasta for main dish, which the noodle is not dry but raw before boiled and it was delicious. Other choices change daily. (Pork ginger, Omlet, etc.)

When I asked the owner, he told me that he was performing acoustic live such as Bosanoba and flute performances on an irregular basis.

The music charge is set for each performer, but the previous Bosanoba live was sold out immediately for 2,500 yen.

In the first place, the shop started by the owner's music lovers, and he wanted to create a healing space with high-quality music of various genres and delicious food.

Lunchtime on weekdays is crowded with people who work nearby, so if you want to spend a relaxing time, we recommend shifting lunch time or Saturday.

According to Mr. Hotta, the owner of the cafe, an acoustic live performances are scheduled non-regularly.  The music charge for the latest bosa nova performance was JPY2,500- which sold out at once, though the charge changes depending on the performer.  

The place is Mr. Hotta's dream come true project where people can spend relaxing time listening to nice music and enjoy good food.

If you wish to touch the essence of the comfortable atmosphere, visiting weekday lunch might not be the right choice because a lot of business people come in on that time.  Recommends visiting in the late afternoon during week days, or on Saturdays.

　

Other than that, world-class judoists, including Olympic medalists, come to the store from time to time.

For more information, why don't you ask the owner directly at the store?

Believe it or not, a worldwide famous Judo athletes sometimes walk in.

For further information, please go visit and have a chat with Mr. Hotta.
