The last farewell party for Ginzo salaried worker life at Suikyotei Ginza store

[Silver] March 31, 2017 18:00

 Ginzo became a social worker and lived as a salaried worker for 47 years. If you count the farewell party,

①In Osaka, 2 Caribbean island St Martin, Tokyo is 3 Tsukiji, 4 Akashicho, 5 Irifune 2-chome, 6 Ginza 2-chome, and 7 Ginza 3-chome.

⑭In Hamamatsucho, Minato-ku, and in March 2017, the last farewell party for silver-built salaried workers was held at "Suikyotei Ginza Store" in 15 Ginza 7-chome.

 When I entered Suikyotei, a tropical fish greeted me.

The passage to the table seemed to be walking on the water.

As for the contents of the meal, I recall the past as a devotion.

 I had a farewell party 15 times in my office worker life. There is the word "once-in-a-lifetime encounter", I am happy to meet people, and goodbye can be a little lonely.

Well, if you have been working for 47 years and have a farewell party 15 times, you have decided to be a "happy office worker life."

 Young friends celebrated my second start at a fine shop in Ginza, and we had a very enjoyable time.

Ningyocho Gourmet Shop Tour of Modern Buildings

[Silver] March 29, 2017 12:00

 Ningyocho is always the home of my heart.

Today, I walked around amazake Yokocho and found a new character, rice cracker at Kameido. He is a landlady who welcomes you with a smile whenever you visit.

 For lunch, we went out to have a restaurant Yoshimi-tei, but since customers with families were waiting, we decided to do it next time. Ningyocho Imahan is full of group guests!

Then, while walking around, "Yes, I was inspired to visit signboard architecture built in the early Showa era."

Takayanagi Tofu shop in Ningyocho 1-chome. The patina of the copper plate tells the history. Next, let's come to buy freshly made tofu with chopsticks, bonito and ginger.

 In Koamicho, Kiyokawa, a famous eel restaurant. Sunday was closed. I pledged to my heart to come next time.

 After this, worship at Koami Shrine in hope of protection against misfortune and luck. It was a fun modern building exploration tour.

 

 

Craftsman Burger Brothers

[TAKK...] March 28, 2017 14:00

A 1-minute walk from Shintomicho Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line. There is "BROZERS' (Shintomicho store)" opposite Chuo-ku government office.

2016004.jpg

A total of 35 kinds of hamburgers and lot burgers with a signboard menu are arranged for Japanese hamburgers from Australian Archies.

Two of us with Teriyaki Burger......、

I'd like avocado cheeseburger.

 

2016001.jpg

It looked delicious, so I ate egg sandwich too!

 

Not only hamburgers, but also buns are very delicious!

The sandwich is also toasted, and it's a very good texture.

 

 

famous confectionery from all over Japan - Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Kayuan ①

[rosemary sea] March 28, 2017 09:00

This is a rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as a policy.

 

DSC02102b.jpgMr. Kayuan has a collection of famous confectionery from all over Japan.

This is a select shop of sweets carefully selected with Mitsukoshi's unique taste and sensitivity.

We visited a shop on the first basement floor of the main building of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store.

Isemoto, Mitsukoshi Nihonbashi Main Store Leader, Kayuan Shop Leader.

 

Kayuan has a wide variety of confident sweets, such as gems from long-established and famous stores all over Japan, seasonal flavors, and local flavors that continue to be loved.

Therefore, it is lined up as a famous store, "famous confectionery of famous store" instead of a famous store.

And why is it delicious? It seems that only sweets with a story that can answer the question are selected.

And there are two styles, "standard sweets" that can be tasted at any time, and "this month sweets" that match the season.

The purchase is self-service form. You can freely put your favorite sweets in a basket as much as you like.

There are two types of baskets, plate size and basket size. It's also possible to buy it as much as you want.

 

From here, I would like to ask the Ise shop leader.

"Even if you don't want customers to travel around the countryside, I think the pleasure of shopping is that raw sweets made in the morning near Tokyo and the long-established sweets from Kyoto enter the same basket and you can choose as much as you like. That's the charm of our shop that I personally want to convey to our customers."

 

I would like to introduce the product.

DSC02094a.jpg DSC02095a.jpg

Ajari-mochi (Ajarimochi) in full moon, Kyoto.

It is a sweet with a tight circumference and a full grain inside.

Ajarashi is a high priest of Mt. Hiei, a high-ranking monk. It's called Ajirokasa of Ajarashi.

It's a name from there. There are a limited number of places that can be purchased in Tokyo.

On many days, about 2,000 pieces a day come out."

DSC02098a.jpg

Chomeiji Sakuramochi (center, upper and middle) in Mukaijima Yamamoto, Tokyo.

"There is a shop near the Sumida River, we handle it all year round, but customers' demands are high at this time.

It is made by wrapping Koshian with thin baked skin that Edokko customers like.

In particular, this year is the 300th anniversary of Sakuramochi. Thanks to that, our customers' requests are growing more than usual.

It arrives every Thursday and Friday at around 11:00."

DSC02092a.jpg

Kurumiko from Beniya, Kamakura.

"It's in stock three times a week, but this is also a best-selling popularity.

It's a homemade caramel made with a lot of walnuts sandwiched in thin cookie dough.

It is a sweet that is very popular with female customers and is very popular with many inquiries over the phone.

Men are also recommended as a casual gift to women around you."

DSC02105a.jpg

Pomdamur of Kobe No. 1 building in Hyogo. It's a standard product.

"It's a sweet made of apple pickles wrapped in a little bitter chocolate.

It is a popular snack that is one of the five fingers of our about 400 kinds of sweets. "

DSC02091a.jpg

Anmitsu from Kameido Funabashi-ya, Tokyo.

"It arrives in the afternoon four times a week on fire, tree, Saturdays and Sundays.

(The interview date was Thursday, around 1:00 p.m. Funabashiya was just in stock and was lined up on the sales floor. )

It's anmitsu with kuzumochi in cup size. It's easy and it's a long-awaited snack today. "

DSC02099a.jpg

A corner of tea ceremony sweets from all over the country.

"I feel that the number of people who don't make matcha is increasing.

It is a recommended corner because it has the charm that you can assortment and compare the pastry sweets here.

You can choose fresh sweets for about 250 to 300 yen per piece.

From very cute things to beautiful kneading, you can enjoy from one.

It is "selling" that you can decide based on your favorite combination."

 

Next time, I will talk about Mr. Kayuan's history.

Chicken flavored charcoal grilled chicken soboro bowl ★Kyobashi Edgran

[Mapo ★] March 26, 2017 16:00

I went to Kyobashi Edgran, which I had been worried about for a long time.

Due to the office district, there are few people on the last day of the three consecutive holidays.
This may be a secret!

 

DSC_0105.JPG

 

In fact, I went to the main store in Aoyama six years ago to eat this chicken flavor.

The chicken of Oyakodon is baked over charcoal fire, and I remember that this was fragrant and delicious.

This time, I decided to eat a different thing, so I made a charcoal-grilled bird soborodon.
The contents are scissors, scissors, tsukune and hot spring eggs.
It's also nice to have a little wasabi on the scissors.

 

DSC_0109.JPG

By the way, this photo is the ultimate Oyakodon & ramen set.♪

It's also nice to have a lunch menu until 5:00 in the evening at Edgran's chicken flavor.

There are many restaurants in Edgran, but there are few shops that open all day long.
We recommend that you check the business hours on the website before going.

Additive-free, special taste-senbei and Kihachido- ②

[rosemary sea] March 25, 2017 09:00

This is rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as a decision making.

 

DSC02065a.jpgKihachido of the rice cracker, this time I will introduce a lot of products.

This time, I also took care of Mr. Tozuka, the manager of the Yaesu Underground Shopping Center at Kihachido Tokyo Station.

 

Well, I would like to introduce the product immediately.

DSC02076a.jpg

Kihachi Senbei (assorted).

A signboard product with the name of the shop. He won the Mond Selection Gold Award for the third consecutive year.

It's a little small, this is just right. Rice crackers with good taste and firmness.

Simple and delicious orthodox. It's finished with raw soy sauce.

 

DSC02058a.jpg

Once upon a time, Daimaru [Old Daimaru] (assorted).

Large-sized, hard-baked authentic rice crackers using homemade natural soup stock.

The same size, thickness, and taste at the time of its founding. A powerful rice cracker that can be bitten by a burr.

Among them, the most basic assortment of glue, sesame and soy sauce flavors.

 

DSC02079a.jpg

Raft sink (assorted).

Long and thin shape like a raft down the river. It's changed if you have a rice cracker.

Three kinds of seaweed, soy sauce, and zalame flavor. This is also an old product.

 

DSC02059a.jpg

Pepper rice cracker.

Please note that is extremely hot. It's really spicy. Don't be sweet.

"I can't eat it for ordinary people."

But it's the best gem for those who can eat it.

 

DSC02082a.jpg

Tokyo Senbei.

It has been loved at Tokyo Station for 40 years.

9 rice crackers. One bag of delicious tea that matches the taste is contained in a set.

Tokyo souvenirs and gifts are perfect. The naming is also decided.

 

DSC02088a.jpg

Hand-baked.

Hand-baked craftsmen baked one by one with all their heart.

It's a real soy sauce cracker.

Of course, only rice and soy sauce are the raw materials, but of course raw soy sauce.

 

In addition, Hachiro Iwako (Ganko Yaro), sunboshi, and okoge are also popular.

Hachiro Iwako, it's a stubborn, solid naming.

It was bought up on the day of the interview and unfortunately it was sold out.
