Okinawa's "Coffee Yatai Hibariya" is limited time OPEN-LOFT Ginza Bellviakan 4F.

Happy New Year. This year, I would like to tell you about the delicious and fun topics of Chuo-ku. Immediately from today, I came to OPEN's coffee stand Hibariya for a limited time.

 

You may be the first time you hear the name "coffee stand", but according to Hibariya's pamphlet, it is not a so-called coffee shop in the building, but according to Hibariya's pamphlet, "A deep spot in one from Kokusai Street Develop an open space like a secret flower garden ", and it is a coffee shop that operates outdoors.

 

"Hibariya" is a popular restaurant that appears most of Okinawa's gourmet guides. I have visited the store before the relocation twice. It was a deep spot that I couldn't easily reach, and I remembered the cafe in Saigon when I first visited in the mysterious space that seemed to have entered another world despite the road right on the right side, the sun and wind of Okinawa in the shade of trees. I remember And it's a bit dark coffee. I couldn't go last year, so I'm glad I could meet you in Tokyo at the beginning of the year.

Unfortunately, it's only the counter, so I can't taste the atmosphere of the stall space in Okinawa, but the taste of the selected coffee and the smile of my husband Tsuji remain the same. We also sell coffee beans and sweets that are roasted in-house. Why don't you go out to Hibariya's original "First Love Ore" and "Soyokaze Ore" to feel the Okinawan wind? There is also "pure brown sugar aule" limited to LOFT.

 

Coffee stand Hibariya 

Limited-time OPEN January 6 to 24 from 11:30 to 20:00 on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays until 19:00 (11,17 are closed)

New Year's shopping at Tsukiji! ~ Tamagoyaki specialty store "Hontama Kojima"-

[Edamame] January 9, 2018 09:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

Happy new year!

Thank you very much for your attention!


By the way, at the end of the year, I went shopping at Tsukiji for the New Year.

Tsukiji is exciting just to see delicious sashimi, kelp, shrimp, crab, etc.

Among them, today's aim is "Tamagoyaki".

Two and a half years old Kushinbo and daughter Azuki like egg grilling.

In that case, the New Year's Day. I decided to prepare a delicious egg-yaki for the New Year.


17-12-28-13-17-34-583_deco-1.jpg

I visited on December 28.

If you go on the 30th, it's very crowded.

I thought it would be difficult for children using a stroller ...

17-12-28-13-16-57-656_deco-1.jpg

・・It's crowded enough.

I felt that there were more people than usual Saturday.

After all, it's the bustle of the New Year.


And here's the egg-yaki shop you are looking for.

DSC_2559-1.jpg

This is "Hongyokukojima".

The main thing is wholesale to department stores and sushi restaurants.

They are also retailing for ordinary customers.

DSC_2429-1.jpg

Recently, there are many shops that serve egg-yaki with a variety of ingredients.

This is only one simple plain type (although there are many sizes).

It is a gem that fully brings out the deliciousness of the real egg and the deliciousness of the soup stock.

And this egg-yaki is all hand-baked by craftsmen.

I think this is valuable as the number of shops baking with machines is increasing.

When I visited the shop, I was the third-generation managing director who is going to deliver.

The second president and daughter who protect the shop are busy.

It's the best time to write in the year.


Then go home after shopping.

"Tamagoyaki ♪ Etamagoyaki ♪" and azuki begged ...

I ate a little for lunch.

DSC_2458-1.jpg

I bought "Honko (Hontama small size)" 550 yen.

I don't think when I first eat it

"Oh, was the egg-yaki so delicious?"

That's why I thought.

The good scent of soup stock is soft in your mouth.

It's not too sweet, but the true taste of eggs spreads out.

You will be happy.

・・・ And the egg-yaki prepared on the azuki plate disappeared in an instant.

Oh. Is it okay? It was said that he had delicious food.

And New Year's Day.

I brought it to my parents' home for me.

My mother said, "It's delicious. This taste would be quite a bargain for that price."

Certainly, if you buy it at a department store, it may be a little more expensive.

It's a bargain that you can buy at a wholesale store. Sure.


Not limited to New Year's Day, when you want to be a little luxurious

It might be nice to have a little hand.

I'll take care of you again.

Thank you very much.

Vitality Ekiden and Three Days Toro

[Asunaro] January 4, 2018 09:00

Return from Hakone~
Pass through Chuo-dori, Nihonbashi-to the goal where friends wait.

 Ekiden jpg

In the appearance of the players who are cheering from the roadside and squeezing their strength.

I got well. Watching the local game will also be hot.

 

By the way, we went to Nihonbashi Fukushimakan while the lingering of incandescent remains.

The third day of New Year is the day of "Third Day Tororo".

This event is mainly held in the Tohoku region, praying for longevity and health.

I'm looking for a limited menu of eating tororo.

 Tororo soba. jpg

It also has the effect of caring for tired stomach and intestines.

I got a lot of energy from the players.

After that, I would like to get in good shape and resume work.
