Hi! Cheese! You can buy it at Tsukiji. Carefully selected, the best cheese!

[The Crown and the Rabbit] July 13, 2017 09:00

It is famous for its long line in Tsukiji.
On the other side of "Yamato Sushi" and "Sushi Dai"
There's a cheese specialty store known to those who know it.
Do you know everyone?

 

On the signboard, the letters "KOTOBUKI Foods International Japanese Sake and Cheese of the World".

ck1216_20170710 (1). jpg
If you like cheese or have studied cheese at this point, you should come with Pin Ao️.

 

The highest rank in French cheese maturer
He was the first Japanese to have the title of "Maitre Fromager" (Mer. Fromajee).
In 2013, French Order of Agriculture, Schvalier,
In 2015, French Order of Agriculture, Ophissier,
The HISADA Group, founded about 30 years ago by Madame Hisada Sanae Hisada, who was awarded the "Cheese Kingdom", a store opened in Tsukiji in 2014 with fullness.

 

But, sir
If you imagine the "cheese kingdom" of Kirekawa (beautiful and cute) as you are in the basement of Depa, you will surely be surprised at the gap.

 

In order to clear the problem of polarization, in which tourists come in large numbers and food professionals come to purchase, female staff are market specifications, manipulating several languages, friendly, good glue, smile Only people with wonderful smiles.

The store manager is a professional cheese professional who has been in the industry for more than 20 years. At first glance, it looks like a martial artist or a fighter because it is strong and has good shape, but it treats cheese very delicately and carefully.

Originally, he didn't say he liked cheese so much, but at a hotel where he worked before, when a French chef fed the leftover cheese of Deschap (Dish Up), he thought, "Japanese cheese is not cheese ️" and opened his eyes.
(In that era, imported natural cheese like today was difficult to obtain, and most of the cheeses distributed in Japan were heat-processed process cheese.)

 

However, it was not flat, cheese path. "Retirement Requests" submitted so far have been submitted five times. Every time you take care of it, "You're changing your life! That's why don't stop!' He said that he was encouraged and continued to come.

 

So, the customer service of this manager's life and death is the same.
It's hot, soulful. It's a burning soul!!

 

In particular, for restaurant and bar chefs who came to purchase cheese, besides the characteristics of each cheese, how to preserve it, how to eat it, how to increase the unit price and offer it, how to use it up without wasting, other We talk closely with each and every one of us, from unexpected mariage (combination) with ingredients and creating a sense of fashion.

 

In the meantime, people who like cheese enthusiasts and people who are familiar with the market come constantly to visit, ridiculed, crumbled, market-like crumbled, constant feeling, lively, lively and lively. Will be deployed.

 

Therefore, it may be quite difficult for ordinary first-time people to enter this tempo quickly. However, if you can enjoy it including that, there is no doubt that you will be fully hooked on that maniac. (^。^)

 

Cheese is sold to food professionals, so it is a carefully selected quality and the condition is determined, exactly "now!" It's lined up. And I'm glad that it's the market price.

 

 

By the way, cheese is often regarded as a high color food for Japanese people, but in France and Italy, it feels the same as a characteristic pickle rooted in the Japanese hometown.
As it is a fermented food, you eat one piece by one every day while enjoying the changing aging process.
Also, hard cheese is used by shaving or bragging down. Like bonito flakes, it is also a seasoning that adds a rich and umami to the dishes.

And in the future, why don't you learn from a hot store manager and taste the deep cheese world?

Introduction of Summer Products ~ Soke Genkichichoan ~

[rosemary sea] July 11, 2017 18:00

This is a rosemary sea, where we show our abilities in "gifts and enjoy yourself."

 

Soke Minamoto Kichoan Ginza Main Store, a Japanese confectionery that opens a new frontier in the "Fruit Confectionery Nature Series", has a lineup of seasonal products for this summer.

This time, I would like to introduce about 5 items in the store where the best items are lined up for gifts.

Then, I would like to introduce the product immediately.

Tsukiji Fish Bank Saturday also saves 14:30.

[Silver] July 10, 2017 12:00

 After visiting Tsukiji Honganji on July 8th (Sat), look at the clock at 14:30. In a hurry, I went to Tsukiji Fish Bank.

 Since the store closes at 15:00, shopping just before the store closes was judged to be "absolutely advantageous!" (The reason is that it is usually closed on public holidays.)

 I'm very sorry for the store just before closing, but it's less than half the price, and delicious food was available at a large scale.

2 trays of whale sashimi, 1 bacon, 1 spicy mentaiko, fresh Sanriku seaweed, this is 1,000 yen!

1499496718452.jpg

 At the next shop, there are plenty of shijimi, 2 pieces of red salmon from Alaska, rockfish (for boiling), 2 pieces of Mako Karei (for boiling), 2 pieces of Mekajiki fillets, 1,000 yen in total.

1499505178943.jpg

Two photos were worth 1,000 yen each. (including consumption tax)

At the shop, ice is put in a plastic bag, so if you return home for about an hour, the ice will not melt, so there is no problem with freshness.

※Holidays and designated Wednesdays are closed. http://www.tsukiji.or.jp/forbiz/uogashi/

 

 

Nelson's Cafe Ginza-A special coffee put in cafe metal-

[Tokyo Dumbo] July 3, 2017 09:00

 Walk along Yanagi-dori, which runs between Ginza 1-chome and 2-chome, and just before going to Showa-dori, "Nelson's Cafe Ginza" is on the left.

In the evening, alcohol is the main "Nelson's Bar Alta Mar", and it is a cafe only during the daytime, business hours are from 7:00 to 15:00 on weekdays and around 10:00 on Saturdays and Sundays.

 

IMG_1962.JPG

 

Master Daeski (Daisuke) is also a band activity by ukulele as "Deski with Love".

 

It's been about two months since I opened a cafe in Ginza, but before that, I was working at Potie Coffee in Hatchobori 2-chome. Potie coffee was lost due to the rebuilding of the building, and it was decided to move to a shop in Shin-Yokohama, but since "I want to work related to coffee in Chuo-ku!" I borrowed the time before it started and started the cafe myself.

 

IMG_1961.JPGIMG_1966.JPG

 

With a passion for coffee, I am working hard to make everyone enjoy the coffee that I think is delicious, and my specialty coffee is brewed with a device called "Cafe Metal".

 

IMG_1960.JPG

 

※Mr Daeski is putting beans in the cafe metal.

 

Because it can be extracted without using paper, you can enjoy the oil of beans and have a clear taste. "Cafe Metal" is manufactured and sold by "Make Mä Co., Ltd." in Shintomi, and the power of connection to Chuo-ku is alive.

 

At Tokyo Dumbo, I was able to deeply feel the lingering taste and aroma in my mouth after swallowing coffee. Also, since the second cup is half price, I enjoyed two cups of recommended blended coffee differently.

 

※All interiors are specifications that image the "sea"

I think I spent a little slow time in Ginza and regained my mind.

SONNA BANANA !

100_2420.JPG 100_2419.JPG

100_2418.JPG 100_2417.JPG

 

What do you think is such a banana? When I heard the name "Recently Popular Shop", I couldn't help but listen back. When I heard "banana juice specialty store", it's "Oh yes", but there are things that I don't understand yet. ・I've been doing it.

 

When I saw the signboard, I immediately thought, "This is an Okinawan shop."

It's so nice (see the photo), so I asked you immediately. It's been a year since it opened.

Q&A with the following stores:

"It's a branch in Okinawa" (in certainty) Answer "No. But I made a branch in Okinawa."

"What is the reason for this 'Showa' store name?" "Somehow it looked interesting."

"I'm from Okinawa (fixed wind)" "I'm often asked, but no"

"The lottery of the shop?" "I wanted to do something interesting, but I donated it to Chuo-ku. I'll do it again this year. Thank you very much.

It's nice to have a feeling of "working hard" without a feeling of enjoying the shop.

I received a recommended "rich banana juice" of 380 yen. It was Nosur-super rich banana juice with no price as advertised. I just added a little milk to the ripe banana.

You can change to soy milk, add fruit granola and flakes toppings, change to Uji matcha, cocoa, dragon fruit, passion fruit, red potato, island banana. It's also nice to have a lot of ingredients from Okinawa. (I've been caught in Okinawa recently.)

It seems that the number of fans who stop by for breakfast is increasing. I feel like I know.
