Peter RabbitTM Campaign, Kokubun Group Headquarters, ROJI Nihonbashi

[rosemary sea] March 31, 2018 09:00

It is rosemary sea that keeps "gifts and I enjoy myself" and covers it.

 

Kokubun Group Headquarters Co., Ltd. will conduct a collaboration campaign with Peter Rabbit, which is loved by everyone, regarding the "K & K Nippon Fruit" series and the "K & K Kokubu Can" series.

It seems to be a project commemorating the 110th anniversary of K&K trademark registration.

The world view of Peter Rabbit drawn against the backdrop of the beautiful nature of the Lake Water region of England, the “K & K Nippon Fruit” series, which aims to develop the brand as a processed product closest to raw fruits that values the natural environment, and the “K & K Country Material Can” series using domestic raw materials.

This will improve brand recognition and expand the number of buyers.

In addition, from the viewpoint of sustainability, the company aims to build an environmentally friendly brand that connects producers, products, and consumers through this campaign with the aim of providing a stable supply of raw materials.

 

This item is also available at ROJI Nihonbashi, a select shop operated by the Kokubun Group head office.

"I think dolls have a doll's life"-"Yoyuki Exhibition" begins-Matsuya Ginza

1. March 25, 2018 14:00

100_2696.JPG

"Yoyuki Exhibition"-The trajectory of creative dolls-was started in Matsuya Ginza on the 21st of the triumphal Paris and umbrella Kotobuki Memorial. Following the success of the exhibition in Paris for the first time in 12 years, this exhibition, which is the first time in eight years in Tokyo, says, "This time, from overseas stories such as early Cinderella and Peter Pan, the theme of Japanese nostalgia We will exhibit about 150 works, including 70 new works, including hymns for children living in "now". " (From the exhibition guide). The doll created by Yuuki Yo, who is popular not only in Japan but also around the world, is not just a doll, but a creature with a soul. Visitors look very carefully one by one, so the line does not go easily. I decided to go on the reverse course. The last waited was Takeshi Beat entitled "Oira" and Joji of "Tokoro-san". It's just like I'm talking to you. I can't get tired of seeing the expressions of the children playing soccer. You can see the gentle gaze of Yoyuki. Children in the Taisho era and early Showa eras sitting in front of snacks also heard voices from the venue saying, "I miss kimonos."

 

At the entrance, Mr. Yukiyo's words, "I think dolls have a doll's life."

 

What will the future life of the dolls that have been blown into Yoyuki?

100_2697.JPG 100_2698.JPG

When I went out of the venue, I saw the sign of "Kagura Sakaki no Zen". There's an eat-in corner. It was a "regular holiday" when I went out once because it was a famous sweet shop. This is the first time. I went in immediately and made it "Kuzumochi" because I was worried. The people around me enjoy the most famous "Anmitsu". When you leave the shop, the next door is Tsutsui in Shinkawa. Oh! There was also an omurice! I shouldn't have been surprised at this. In addition, next to the store is "Cafe Paulista", the birthplace of "Gin Bra".

 

Of course, the exhibition is also available, but the eat-in corner cannot be removed. It seems that the shop will change in the first and second half of the exhibition, so I have to come again. The first half is until the 27th.

 

Yoyuki Exhibition Until April 10, Matsuya Ginza 8F Event Square

Closed at 17:00 on the last day from 10:00 to 20:00

Admission fee: General 1200 yen

 

 

 

Greek food THE APOLLO in Tokyu Plaza, Ginza

[Silver] March 25, 2018 09:00

"Tokyu Plaza Ginza" opened in March 2016, and two years have already passed.

The design of the exterior of the building has become a hot topic that expresses "Edo Kiriko", and I sometimes wanted to drink it with such a fine cut glass.

And the restaurant I wanted to come from before is THE APOLLO. Located on the 11th floor of the building, Harumi-dori St., Sotobori-dori St. and the Imperial Palace can also be seen, and the view is very wonderful. The night view will be very nice.

1521613977218.jpg

 This is a Greek restaurant.

I learned that healthy Greek dishes made with fresh ingredients and plenty of olive oil, fresh vegetables and seafood are registered in the World Intangible Cultural Property.

For salads, mix olives, tomatoes and cucumbers with a smooth, rich and salty "feta cheese" with a spoon. This is different from the cheeses of other European countries and is quite exotic.  Bread is also a little rare.

1521614074114.jpg

And it's like "tomato rice using long-grained rice" that you put a little powdered cheese, but that's not the case. It's a Greek pasta.

1521614099740.jpg

 Greek pasta is like long grain rice.

1521614127941.jpg

 And I saw a bottle of sake called METAXA for the first time in a long time. I've heard that it was a purveyor of the Greek royal family.

I think the taste was brandy with a taste similar to the French [Almanac].

This time, in the evening, I would like to drink with a glass like Edo Kiriko.

And then

Even if you think, "I want to go to see the Parthenon shrine!"Airplane, So you can't easily go to Greece, so why don't you feel like traveling here?
