"Nel CRAFT CHOCOLATE TOKYO" opens at HAMACHO HOTEL!

[Edamame] February 23, 2019 09:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.
 

Today, February 15, 2019.

A new type of hotel with rental housing

HAMACHO HOTEL has opened!

DSC_5174-1.jpg

The appearance of the building as a edamame for neighboring residents

I was looking forward to seeing you every day.

Speaking of the interest of local residents.

“What kind of good shop can you make?”

Yes. There will definitely be a delicious restaurant in the hotel,

In many cases, high-quality confectionery shops are also included.

I was not looking forward to it.
 

First of all, today’s opening day.

A new opening in the hotel.

We visited "Nel CRAFT CHOCOLATE TOKYO".

DSC_5170-1.jpg

The entrance facing the road is a side and stairs that do not face the main street, so

Considering easy-to-understand & barrier-free routes

It may be better to enter from the front entrance of the hotel facing Kiyosubashi-dori St.

DSC_5173-1.jpg

Enter the hotel entrance and proceed to the back side of the right, and you can get to the shop properly.

 

Well, immediately into the shop.

DSC_5171-1.jpg

At the entrance, there are various kinds of tablet chocolate

It was displayed with cacao.

"Ghana", "Venezuela", "Bunchap Vietnamese", etc.

There are lots of chocolates with the name of the cacao production area.

It seems that the percentage of cacao is different, and it seems that eating comparison is fun.
 

DSC_5172-1.jpg

Chocolate bonbon was also displayed here.

DSC_5177-1.jpg

Is it easier to understand the shape of the brochure?

Made from cocoa made by contracted farmers in Vietnam

In addition to "Bunchapvetnum"

It is only made with special ingredients such as "Tamba Black Bean Kinako" and "Yuzu".

 
It is said that the name of the shop "nel" comes from "kneading".

"Delivering chocolates kneaded with carefully selected ingredients and craftsmanship with true heart"

You're making it with a feeling.

Chef Chocolatier goes to his production area.

We use carefully selected cocoa beans and ingredients from producers.

Chocolate made with high technology, incorporating ingredients unique to Japan.

All of them make you feel the high quality.
 

In addition, "late citrus peel" using Amakusa late citrus from Kumamoto.

"chocola show (chocolate drink)" etc.

All of them are attractive, and they are in trouble.

Here's what I bought today.

DSC_5175-1.jpg

"Nihonbashi hamachoco" (tax included: 1080 yen).

Put it in your mouth! !

It was a delicious chocolate with creamy and smooth texture.

Do you have a little liqueur? What is it?

I felt soft afterwards.

So, this is not a snack for my daughter Azuki (3 years old).

 It will be a midnight snack for my mother Edamame.)

 
The special items that can only be obtained here.

You will be pleased with your gift somewhere in the future.

As a neighbor, you will continue to take great care of me.

Let's compare the eating of a tablet this time.

Or do you want to try a chocolate show in the cold season?

I'm looking forward to seeing you next time.

And ... the restaurant in the hotel that has not yet been visited.

I was very excited to visit you in the future.

Recommended cycling correspondent! Seasonal Waterfront Course

[Hanes] 18:00 on February 22, 2019


Hello. This is the new correspondent Hanes!
Recently, I got a sports motorcycle from a bad point, so I tried a ride in the city.
Considering the amount of pedestrian and car traffic in the city center, the status of maintenance of bicycle paths, etc.
Rather than enjoying running, I feel that pottering to enjoy while visiting historic sites and shops is better.

However, when it comes to sports bikes, pottering in the town is not enough....
When I say selfishness, I want a variety of undulations and scenery.
This time, I would like to introduce a course (Hanes style) that fulfills such wishes.
(* The photos in the article are taken at different times of multiple days.)

◼️ Seasonal waterfront course
Itinerary: Tsukiji - Toyomi - Harumi - Toyosu - Harumi - Harumi - Kachidoki - Tsukiji
Time required (approximately): 45 minutes to 1 hour
Course Outline: In addition to seasonal spots such as Harumi's athlete's village and Toyosu market, a course for everyone who can enjoy a variety of undulations and scenery.
Recommended time zone: At any time

Thumbnail image of mymap3.jpg

The starting point is in front of the "Kachidokibashi Museum" near Kachidokibashi.
Even if you go cycling as a group, in addition to a space where you can gather without disturbing pedestrians,
There is also a public toilet, so it is safe.
If you are traveling for sightseeing or do not have a bicycle, a community cycle with electric assist is convenient.
We will introduce you later, but please check the nearby cycle port on this map.

①Museum of Kachidokibashi
In front of the museum, there is a monument of the Navy Accounting School and a trace of victory.
You can learn the history of Kachidoki before departure
And if you are lucky, you may see the bulbuls that catch on the surrounding trees

bulbul.jpg

Well, the preamble is longer, but now we will start on the waterfront area ride!

②Tsukiji Outer Market
When you start running, you will see on the left side of the Tsukiji Outer Market, which is lined with about 460 shops.
The average number of tenants at major department stores in Tokyo is said to be around 80.
It is calculated that there are 5.7 times more shops here.
Please note that there is a large amount of pedestrian and car traffic around the out-of-the-box market.

In addition, if the starting point is around this area with good access from the subway station or out-of-the-box market,
There is a cycle port near the traffic light of Ichiba Bridge, so it is convenient to use this one.

IMG_4534.JPG

If you go south for a while along the site of the market, you will see a sticker indicating the entrance of Loop Route 2 for pedestrians and bicycles.
It may be a bit difficult to understand for the first time, but the entrance is right in front of Ote-mon gate Bridge!

IMG_4535.JPG

It turns a little when entering and exiting, but most of the roads are straight and wide, making it easier to run.
While paying attention to pedestrians, cross the bridge for about 3 months after opening.

IMG_4425.JPG

③Hamarikyu Onshi Garden
In the middle of a comfortable ride, you get into view...
Historic scenery and seasonal flowers of Hamarikyu Onshi Garden, a nationally designated special scenic spot and special historic site.
In mid-February, we saw some canola flower, which is now in full bloom.

IMG_4427.JPG

When I felt like someone called me and looked down on the surface of the water,
A cute waterbird was swimming with water.

IMG_4539.JPG

If you go a little further, you will see the Hamarikyu dock, the lighthouse ruins, the Tsukiji River lock, etc.
From this area, you can see the famous buildings of the ancient and modern times, Hamarikyu Onshi Garden and Rainbow Bridge at the same time!

IMG_4433.JPG

④Tsukiji Ohashi
The flat road ends once in front of the bridge and becomes a gentle uphill.
A senior correspondent, Satsuki's Koibuki-ryushi, introduced it before
Check out the writings of former Tokyo Governor Yoichi Masuzoe and proceed to the destination!

Tsukiji Ohashi.jpg

After crossing the bridge, we headed to the pier with a ship from Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology.

IMG_4541.JPG

⑤Toyomi Fisheries Wharf
In this area where there are many warehouses and many trucks,
There is a port town-like scenery reminiscent of the Tsukiji Market.

IMG_4442.JPG

From here, you can see Harumi Wharf, the athlete village under construction, Rainbow Bridge, etc.
It is not as famous as Harumi Pier, but it is a great photo spot.

tsukishima.jpg

As you can see in the picture above, the view at dusk is also good,
You can take memories of cycling against the backdrop of the blue sky of the day and the shining water surface

IMG_4548.JPG

⑥Tuna wholesaler tuna bowl shop
After that, if you run a little while looking at the Asashio Canal to the right, you will see something like a shop.
That's the tuna wholesale store!
In 2017, senior correspondent HK introduced in detail.

IMG_4456.JPG

The menu is written on the surfboard,
"Tuna wholesale tuna bowl", which is also the name of the store, is just 600 yen!
Personally, I'm worried about "ultra rich bisk soup shrimp buckwheat"

Maguro.jpg

In the case of cycling in the morning, take a break that also serves as lunch here,
Why don't you enjoy the seafood and scenery unique to the waterfront?
After that, return along Route 2 and continue the ride.

⑦Reimei Ohashi, Toyosu Ohashi
Like Tsukiji Ohashi, this is a relatively recently opened road,
Fortunately, the bicycle path is well maintained.
However, there are pedestrians, so I drive carefully at speed.

bridges.jpg

If you look at the scenery unique to the waterfront after experiencing a moderate uphill,
"The slope was hard, but I'm glad I came."

IMG_4556.JPG

⑧Toyosu Market
When you go down Toyosu Ohashi, you will see Toyosu Market.
This is not Chuo-ku, but it is one of the seasonal spots related to the old Tsukiji market!

IMG_4557.JPG

⑨Harumi Ohashi
Pass through Toyosu Market, cross Harumi Ohashi and return to Chuo-ku.
As mentioned in the article by a senior correspondent, Fireworks in Sumida, there is a little undulation in Harumi Ohashi.
Even a woman like me can cross without difficulty,
If you use a community cycle with electric assist,
You can cross with a smile without having a rugged look

harumi.jpg

From this area, you can see warehouses, tower apartments, and Skytree,
Don't get bored with the scenery
After that, I just ran to the Kachidokibashi Museum, which is also the goal point, but
Would you like to take a short walk before that?

⑩Delido Kachidoki Ekimae Store (with bicycle parking available)
This is a supermarket used by people living in the surrounding area,
With self-service, you can enjoy special coffee at an affordable price.
At the time of visit, besides coffee that is commonly seen,
There were also flavor coffee such as Caramel vanilla and organic coffee.
The size is 12oz (approximately 355ml) and 16oz (approximately 470ml).
Surprisingly enough, but because of self-service, you can adjust the amount yourself!

Get off the bicycle and move to the east side of Kachidokibashi with one cup of coffee.
It is also a luxurious time to see Tokyo Tower and Kachidokibashi (night view is recommended)

kachidoki.jpg

Take a break and cross the bridge, and the museum is nearby.
This time, it may have been difficult to understand because I used photos of different times, but
As I wrote at the beginning, you can make a lap in 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Finally, looking back at the course, you can see the historical scenery such as Hamarikyu Onshi Garden.
Contemporary scenery such as Tower Mansion, Rainbow Bridge, Skytree, Tokyo Tower, etc.
And the scenery of warehouses, ships, locks, etc. unique to the waterfront, and
I was able to see a lot of scenery that was rich in change and did not get tired of my eyes.

In addition, many of the roads we traveled this time (other than around Tsukiji and Toyomi Fisheries Wharf) have bicycle paths.
The width of the road is wide and gentle to those with children.
For those who live in the ward or those who have come to Chuo-ku for sightseeing from home and abroad,
This is my best course I want to recommend.

※When riding a bicycle, please follow the manners and rules.
 Don't forget to wear a helmet or turn on the lights after dark....

 

 

Popular sandwiches in Osaka land in Ginza ★Ginza Sand

[Map★] 12:00 on February 22, 2019

From friends in Osaka
"The sandwich shop where my daughter is working is going to open in Ginza,
I'm going to Ginza with the opening staff, so let's go."
I was contacted.

 

Oh! Sandwich in Ginza?
I have to go!

 

When I checked it, I found that the beach was down down.
At an egg cutlet sandwich shop that is highly praised on TV,
It was a Ginza store in Kitashinchi Sands.
Ginza is the third store with Shinsaibashi Sands.
It opened on February 4th.

 

DSCN1609.JPG

 

Since I met the owner, I heard a lot of stories.
It is based on the concept of opening a shop in a first-class bar district,
Opened at 7-chome in Ginza.

 

It is also from five in the evening to four in the morning.
It seems that it is also popular for moms in Ginza.

 

This area is an area where there are many high-end shops and famous shops for Western and Japanese sweets, so I'm convinced.

 

The most popular egg cutlet sandwich, the second most popular salt cutlet sandwich,
Potato chips with Shinsaibashi chicken chili flavor.
I had it with white wine, but it all goes well with alcohol!

 

DSCN1617.JPG

 

In particular, this egg sandwich is not just the one!

 

The marriage of clothes and mayonnaise is exquisite,
It has a rich body and is perfect in tidbits♪

 

DSCN1612.JPG

 

This is Mr. ★It was very nice.

 

DSCN1611.JPG

 

I'm sorry that the restaurant is not open at lunch.
It seems that it is sometimes opened at department store events,
Please check it out on the Facebook page (*^^*)

Normally, strawberries have a white cross section when cut, but this is a strawberry with a lot of red parts.

It is a strawberry with a high sugar content while having a slight sour taste like strawberry.

If you have a little acidity, strawberries have a taste. "

It's a naming because it's so delicious that the cheeks fall.

It has a rich taste with good aroma and juicy balance between sweetness and sourness.

“It will be a strawberry with little acidity.

If you don't like sour taste at all, I think this is good.

All kinds of strawberries are the same until the end of March."

"It's been about 15 years since I left, but it's very popular.

Among the citrus fruits in Japan, it is the top in terms of name recognition and taste. It's the most popular.

The taste is very rich. It's as if oranges and oranges are combined."

This is also easy to peel and can be eaten with a bag. There are almost no seeds.

You can enjoy the harmony of sweetness and sourness.

"What is coming out now is house, but (later) alleys will also be sold, so it will be until around May.

As Sembikiya, I would like to choose something that has a rich taste, so we will prepare that it is not only sweet but also slightly sour and has a good balance. "

Left: Ripe Kinkantamatama Excellent Makeup Box 20 pieces 10,800 yen

Miyazaki Ripe Kinkan "Excellent" is a brand that is given only to those that meet strict standards such as sugar content and size.

We grow the house carefully and harvest it after ripening on the tree.

Enjoy large and sweet fruit with raw skin.

Mold flavor with little sweetness, sourness and bitterness spreads in your mouth.

"There's a mango called "The Egg of the Sun". Similarly, it is a golden citrus that is Blanding in Miyazaki.

Among the product names "accidentally", those with higher ripeness and sugar content are "accidentally excellent".

It will be the highest grade. It's different. Even so, the price has calmed down.

Among the fruits that come out now, this Kinkan has the highest sugar content. I recommend it.

It seems that it was branded at the time of Governor Hideo Higashikokubaru. "

 

Right: Ripe Kinkan Haruhime 20 pieces in a makeup box 3,780 yen

It is a ripe golden citrus of Kagoshima and South Satsuma.

A brand that is given only to those that meet the criteria of a sugar content of 16 degrees or more, L size or more, and dark orange color.

It grows carefully in the house, waits for the ripening period, and harvests 210 days after flowering.

Please take this raw skin as well.

Upper image left: Kiwifruit incense green (Koryoku) Kagawa sugar content of 17 degrees Celsius 864 yen per piece

"Koryo" "Hayward" is a kind of natural mating. Registered varieties in 1987.

A large fruit with a slightly elongated cylindrical shape. The flesh is vivid emerald green.

It has high sugar content, plenty of sweetness, and also has freshness.

"This is a new breed made from the mainstream species called Hayward.

Characteristics are that the sugar content is very high, and the cross section when cut is emerald.

(with others) It's completely different."

 

IMG_20190214_133259 (2)a.jpgI tried to cut it. (right image)

The longer and thinner ones are incense green from Kagawa, and the normal oval shape is from Fukuoka.

 

Upper image right: Kiwifruit Fukuoka sugar content of 14 degrees 1 piece 324 yen

This is also a delicious variety, but the rosmari food lipo squad will try to taste the comparison with Kagawa's incense green.

As usual, we don’t give much information in advance.

In addition, all the members eat the ordinary kiwi that happened to lunch and then eat this food lipo.

<Fuku> It is from Fukuoka, and <ko> is from Kagawa.

"<Fuku>It was delicious to enjoy both sweet and sour taste. Incense The sugar content was extremely high, and it was sweet and delicious that almost no acidity was felt. " Mr. S.

"<Fuku>The taste of the fruit is strong and fragrant. The sour taste is delicious. Incense Sweetness and stiffness that I don't think of kiwi. The skin was soft and like a cake." Mr. O.

"They have a strong sour taste, but they are delicious. Incense This is the first time I have ever eaten such a sweet kiwi." Mr. T. Yamasan No. 3.

"The sweet and sour taste is delicious. Incense There is a deep sweetness.' Mr.

“It was sweeter than I usually eat. Incense It was soft and easy to eat." Mr. S.

IMG_20190214_133115a.jpg

Maskmelon 1200g 12,960 yen 1300g 16,200 yen

       1400g21,600 yen 1500g or more 27,000 yen

Maskmelon's "mask" has nothing to do with mask.

The origin of the name is that it is fragrant like musk (musk).

It is grown carefully in a greenhouse covered with glass instead of vinyl.

In addition, one fruit per stem: It is a luxurious cultivation method of one stem and one fruit, condensate sweetness.

It excels in aroma, sweetness, texture, and everything, and its noble taste is exactly the king of fruits.

When purchased, ripen at room temperature and cool for 2 or 3 hours before the date indicated on the lower tag attached.

"Melons made in Shizuoka Prefecture are collectively called 'maskmelon'.

Among them, what was made in Fukuroi City, Shizuoka Prefecture is called "Crown Melon".

Sembikiya sings mask melon, but most of them sell crown melons.

This melon is trying to avoid hitting the sun as much as possible.

And when it reaches a certain size, I wear a white cloth to prevent it from hitting the sun.

When it hits the sun, it turns green, and it is inevitably blue. ・・・

The concept of Sembikiya is to provide delicious food at the time of eating.

Therefore, we look at the dying condition of the melon "heta" and see the whole softness, color change, etc. to guide customers.

If you say, "Push your ass and judge me," the melon will be damaged.

We think that it is the role of Sembikiya to eat the best at a delicious time. "

 

IMG_20190214_133042a.jpg

 The fee for the paulownia box is 1,080 yen.

"The only country in Japan is that such a wooden box, put it in a makeup box, wrap it, and put it on a ribbon.

In foreign countries, especially in Europe and the United States, fruits are processed into jam (since sugar content is low) and eaten.

I think only Japan is the only country that has a high sugar content for raw food and moderately suppressed acidity. "

 

IMG_20190214_134720 (2)a.jpg

Assorted fruits 32,400 yen

This is a sophisticated assortment unique to Senbikiya Sohonten.

 

IMG_20190214_134450 (2)a.jpg IMG_20190214_134602 (2)a.jpg

1 queen strawberry chocolate 378 yen

Introducing a dish from the corner of Western confectionery. It's a white day item.

Sembikiya's original queen strawberry is made of two colors of chocolate.

 

・・Mr. Yonamine, thank you for teaching me a lot.

Chemical reaction of rakugo world! What is the new genre "Otaku Rakugo"?

[Hanes] 18:00 on February 19, 2019


Hello. I'm a new correspondent (Hanes).
The event was held on February 13 (Wednesday) at Kabukiza Gallery on the 5th floor of Kabukiza Tower.
I went to "Ginza Kibikitei Moe Yose Extra Edition-Otaku Rakugo at Kabukiza Gallery-by TOKYO KOBIKI LAB."

It was my first time going to vaudeville, but it was a fusion of anime, manga and rakugo.
It was the first time I learned about the genre of "Otaku Rakugo"
My knowledge of anime, manga, and games was equal to zero, and I was very worried if I could understand it, but I thought that listening to rakugo in the new genre was a study, so I got off at Higashi-Ginza Station.

■Kabuki soba
The rakugo started at 19:00, so I said, “First of all, dinner...."I thought,
A famous shop "Kabuki Soba" that I learned from flowing through my friend's Instagram feed!
In this blog, former correspondent Tom Shimomachi introduced it,
It is located right behind Kabukiza Theater, so it is very convenient when you want to have a meal nearby.

This is a meal ticket system, and I ordered "Morikakiage (470 yen)".
(The famous specialty is "Zaru Kakiage (490 yen)".)
It takes about 20 seconds to give a meal ticket to the shop, select a seat, and walk slowly to take off the coat.
The timing was good, so the side came out before I sat down.
If you are so skillful, it seems that Kabuki actors before the production can easily eat it.

Soba is an amount that even women can eat without difficulty, and a large serving is possible for plus 70 yen!
It is rare to serve tempura, and there is a feeling unique to Kabuki soba.
Tempura mainly contains carrots, onions, and sweet potatoes.
I enjoyed the crispy texture if it was just freshly fried.
The last order will be at 18:15, so please be careful when using at night.

■Rooftop Garden
Even after dinner, there was still a little time before the opening,
I went to the rooftop garden of Kabukiza Theater (5th floor, free)
Although it is not known from the ground, it is a good place to relax with monuments, lanterns, cherry blossoms, chairs, etc.

From the Goemon Stairway on the right side of the garden, you can see the tiled roof of Kabukiza up close.

(The end of the stairs is "4th Floor Corridor-Kabukiza of Remembering".)

Many of you may know that phoenixes can be seen everywhere in Kabukiza, but
Have you ever heard about the "inverted phoenix" that makes you happy when you find it?

(This is an ordinary phoenix [laughs].)

If you are interested, please see the article of senior correspondents Satsuki's Koi Blower and Akoba Peony for details.

I’ve only been to this garden during the day.
At night, the moon can be seen without being blocked by other buildings.
I was able to enjoy it at night.

■Kabukiza Gallery
After opening, I met some correspondents and went to the back of the gallery while talking....
Not only is it a gallery, but you can learn about Kabuki,
You can see the costumes, props (such as butterflies attached to the tip of the difference), musical instruments, etc. used in Kabuki, and you can touch some of them!
There are some horses that cannot be crushed even if adults ride,
It is a very interesting spot where you can enjoy while experiencing Kuroi, Guardianship, and Kabuki actor.

There are three things I thought of as a beginner when I entered the room.
That means that Koza is higher than expected, Koza and seats are closer than expected, and the stage is more colorful (perhaps for a limited time) than expected.

On this stage, cypress boards and banners that were actually used in the predecessor Kabukiza Theater are used.
The Kabukiza Gallery is also for those who have never seen Kabuki or overseas.
It was made for the purpose of having people feel free to touch Kabuki.
These traditional things are also incorporated, so it is a spot for Kabuki fans to visit.

The preface has become longer, but this time, Harufutei Yoshiyoshi, who is also appearing in Nico Nico Douga, appears.
Rakugo, which incorporates from a shallow element to a very maniac one, is shown.
There was a lot of laughter in the audience!
Details will be omitted because it will be a story, but according to the explanation, there may be more than 5 types of anime and manga elements in one seat, etc.
As a characteristic or famous line,
Those who know, say, “I know, I know.”

On the other hand, in the case of a person who is not related to anime or manga like me,
Although it doesn't fit in the lines or character names, you can enjoy the story itself enough.
The last one was shown, "If the retired person of Kotobuki is a nerd....The setting is "
"When the classical rakugo is fused with modern culture, it evolves so much and has bulge!"
Rather, it was a composition that impressed me, and I thought this was a chemical reaction in the rakugo world.
In order for the younger generation to be interested in rakugo,
I thought there was such an idea.

In addition, those who appeared during the recoloration of Shunfutei Yoshiyoshi have a background in which they can't find anything in common with traditional performing arts.
It was impressive that the episodes about his career were linked to laughter well.

This time, in addition to rakugo, there is also an interesting talk show with popular voice actor Kentaro Tone,
You can listen to the voice actor's work and the story that was synchronized with a famous actor at the university.
As I learned, it was a very valuable experience.
Taking this opportunity, Kabuki, Rakugo, Noh, puppet ballad drama, etc.
I would like to experience the traditional performing arts that represent Japan!
