Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

Hello. This is a new correspondent, Hanes.
Following the company meal of the Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway Co., Ltd. Shintomi Branch, which was introduced the other day, the Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway Co., Ltd.
This time, we will deliver it from the 1st floor grill of Chuo-ku government office.



This is not a staff cafeteria, but it has relatively long business hours.
It is a space where those who come to the ward office or library can easily eat from morning to evening.
In addition, you can have pasta that will probably not be offered at the 11th floor staff cafeteria!
That's why I bought a weekly pasta meal ticket and went to the store.



It's not a self-service for staff, so the order is a restaurant style!
I sit in my favorite seat and give the waiter a meal ticket.



A few minutes to wait while looking out from the window...The ordered asparagus and bacon peperoncino were brought.
It's nice to be able to eat vegetables in salads and to have your favorite amount of Parmesan cheese.



And above all, the noodles that were more sticky than expected, and the asparagus and thick bacon that were generously entered.
It was a quality that overturned the concept of rice at the government office in a good way.

Perhaps because it was past noon, it was not too crowded and I was able to relax.
In addition to firm rice, from sandwiches that can be picked up when you are hungry.
We also have desserts that can be eaten by children!



Lunch that you can enjoy at a reasonable price in Tokyo is very valuable!
If you are near you, lunch at the government office....How about it?

As an aside, this is the November menu of the staff cafeteria on the 11th floor.
Calorie and salt are detailed in detail, and from a sticky value lunch
Information that is good for those who care about health, up to healthy lunch with a total calorie of 650kcal or less, using 100g or more vegetables, and a salt content of 3.0g or less.
In addition, there is a menu with plenty of vegetables using more than 120g of vegetables, and a low-salt menu with no miso soup and a salt content of less than 2.5g.



There are a lot of menus, so it's easy to see!
The staff cafeteria will be reported here when you use it, so please wait for a while.

I went to Masaru Shinkawa Jingu Shrine to visit.

　

When I entered the precincts, a lot of sake barrels were dedicated to the left.　This is the first time I see. A barrel of sake called Shinkawa No. 1 ship was also dedicated.

　

There was an explanation about Komono barrel.

　

The explanation is as follows.

"Consecration Sake Komono barrel

　During the Edo period, Shinkawa prospered as a wholesaler of "downhill sake", which was introduced to Edo from the upper part of sake (sake), a famous brewery. Founded here in Kanei 2 (1625), Masaru Shinkawa Jingu Shrine has been revered as a guardian deity for sake wholesalers and sake brewers.　At that time, sake was packed in wooden barrels to Edo and transported by a special barrel boat, but it is said that the beginning of Komokan (Komo barrel) was wrapped around Komono to prevent damage to the barrel. You.　In order to distinguish it from other brands, Komono was designed to represent the characteristics of each brand.　The Komo barrels (Nito barrel = 36L) piled up here were donated by Keijinkai members who have been connected to Masaru Shinkawa Jingu Shrine for many years, as well as religious breweries from all over the country. is. I would like to thank the people who consecrated us and wish that the industries responsible for the traditional food culture of Japan, including the alcoholic beverage industry, will be more and more prosperous.

On the website of Masaru Shinkawa Jingu Shrine, you can see the picture of "Shinshuban Funae To Shinkawa Iritsuzu". http://shinkawadaijingu.or.jp/gallery/gallery1/shinshubanwsen/

　Next time, I will go to find the sake that is dedicated.

Hello. This is a new correspondent, Hanes.
Until now, we have introduced Chuo-ku from various viewpoints, such as the morning activity series and excursion series, but a new series will be added from this time!
Under the title of "From the company window in Chuo-ku", we will introduce corporate food that can be enjoyed mainly by the general public in Chuo-ku.

The first memorable event will be featured in the Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway Co., Ltd. Shintomi Branch Office!
It is located in the middle of Takaracho Station and Hatchobori Station.



If you know that you can eat company food here because it doesn't face the main street
I think it's really a few, including those who live in the neighborhood.
Lunch information is available outside the building, so you can check the menu.
It's mainly Japanese food, and it's a lineup that relaxes you to think about the taste of home.



As you can see in the guide, tell us that you will use the cafeteria at the reception and receive a badge.
Take the elevator to the 6th floor and head to the 7th floor restaurant "Bufe" by stairs.



There are people who cook in the back, and welcome you very easily as if you had come to your favorite set meal shop.



The inside of the cafeteria has a government office style that can be said to be "This is a company food!"
Being able to check the morning information program on TV is also a nice point for those who work for the company.



And this time, I would like to introduce a breakfast set that is not included in the outside guide.
This is limited from 8:00 to 10:30, and it is a set known to those who know it.
It's a very normal menu, but it's only 350 yen.
Don't you think the service is incredibly good in Tokyo?
(If you are not good at natto, you can also choose seaweed instead.)
And most of all, handmade in the kitchen is attractive.



Here's the breakfast set I ordered (the fried egg, natto).
I betrayed my expectations in a good way, and there are two fried eggs that came out!
It's a great surprise for those who want to eat well in the morning.



But that's not the only surprise!
A cup that has been warmed in advance with a cup warmer.



I'll have some coffee.
The cup is hot, so it is recommended for the coming season!
This is a free service only for breakfast, and it costs 100 yen at lunchtime.



At the end of the window glass, where I moved my line of sight with a slow cup of coffee.
The Metropolitan Expressway (Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway) stretched between high buildings.
I don't think there are many places where you can see the Metropolitan Expressway while eating and drinking indoors.
It seems that there are many employees and neighbors here.
Neighboring workers, those who use the room without meals Plan (no breakfast) at a nearby hotel.
Children who like cars can enjoy rice and scenery.



It's reasonable and more than expected!
Why don't you try such a secret place company meal in Chuo-ku once?

　As you may know, in April 1959, "Miyoshikai" was launched as a youth club of the Nihonbashi Cuisine and Food Business Association.

While accumulating activities rooted in Nihonbashi, Tokyo, we are sincerely working hard to cook food to protect the taste of Nihonbashi and expand the circle of exchange among members. In recent years, we have actively participated in various activities in the region and are actively working on the challenge of revitalizing the region.

The number of members gradually increased, and now it is about 60 people.

There are many famous shops in Nihonbashi, but because there are many options, I am worried about which shop is better, but if you are a member of this "Miyoshikai" (shops) I guess there is no doubt.

There are various types of faces, such as long-established stores and founding Hoya Hoya shops, but the passion for betting on restaurant management and the spirit of loving the city of Nihonbashi are both common.

There may be problems with the sensitivity of my antenna, but I think it's getting more and more momentum recently and more opportunities to see it.

(The photo shows a taste competition with the 344th Association at Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi)

Occasionally, we often offer limited menus for events, and the other day, a lunch menu measure of 3440 yen was being developed.

The menu of every shop looks delicious. I was worried about what to eat ... I have no eyes on the sweet stuff, so this time I ordered a Afternoon Tea set with a fruit parlor at Senbikiya.

Well, it's delicious. Every time you get one step by step, the sadness of the goal approaches (laughs).

The drink is a blend of cold green tea and grapes. This was personally a new way of drinking.

Looking around, everyone seems to be ordering this 3440 menu, and it is still popular as a special menu.

(It is secret that we ordered not only the Afternoon Tea set but also the malon shortcake (soaked in milk).)

 

 

Hello. This is a new correspondent, Hanes.
Ashamed, I myself have a sparse place in gourmet food.
Many famous shops in Chuo-ku may happen to know at events outside the city or travel destinations.

The other day, at the event "Long Table" Kizuna "", a special event for the 10th anniversary of the Marunouchi Chefs Club held at Marunouchi Nakadori in Chiyoda-ku, next door.
I learned about Ginza Sushi Sachi Honten, a long-established sushi restaurant in Ginza that has been around since the Meiji era.
At this event, you can have a collaboration menu of ingredients from Yamanashi Prefecture with Mamoru Sugiyama, the fourth generation master, and Mamoru Sugiyama.
One of the menus is "Yamanoyuki Umi no Yuki Autumn Megumi Onion Ramen".
This is a special menu that is not served at the shop, and it was popular as "Ramen made by sushi restaurants".



One coin (500 yen) is a dish prepared by a long-established sushi restaurant.
Or I felt very much that it was free (when I attended an event and got a ticket)

As a seafood, ramen has a thick fish cut.
It has been conveyed that it is a special ramen that is one rank higher.
You can also use high-quality Japanese pepper (Yamatsu Tsujida) as you like.
I was able to fully enjoy the taste of each ingredient.
I haven't actually visited the store yet, but expectations are growing!

And above all, I have won one star in the Michelin Guide Tokyo.
It is a shop that adds a new essence to the tradition of serving sushi with wine, so why not try using this shop on a special occasion?
