The events I have been looking forward to every year since I started living in Nihonbashi are Setomono Market in August, Betara City in October, and Ningyo Market in November.

When Betara City comes, I feel autumn, and autumn is autumn of appetite.

Bettara City has about 400 open-air streets on October 19 and 20 every year, regardless of the day of the week, from around Nihonbashi Muromachi at Mitsukoshimae Station to Takarada Ebisu Shrine in the direction of Kodemmacho. There are many foods and alcohols, as well as pickles.

By the way, the children are very lively, such as scooping goldfish and shooting, and the mikoshi is being vigorous in alleys crowded like a crowded train.

What I recommend is that you always get fresh and beautiful flowers at a very low price while there are many food shops, and that the surrounding shops sell bags and daily necessities according to the city of Betara. We sell goods at really cheap prices, so we look for bargains.

It's from 12:00 to 21:30, so why not come to Betara City, a feature of autumn, even if you return home from work?

 

 

 

Hergendaz la Maison Ginza, which opened on July 17 in Ginza.
It has four floors above ground and two floors below ground, and seems to have inspired mansion in Ginza.

Lunch has just begun on August 31, and I went on September 3.

The store arrangement is luxurious ~ Ginza as expected! It's a luxurious feeling that I don't think it's a Hergendatz.

 There are 3 kinds of lunch for galette lunch.

Choose the most plain eggs, bacon and cheese galettes.
It was 1300 yen with drinks and ice cream.

The galette was very delicious. 

 The ice was also frozen in the skin.

 

Looking from the second floor, three kinds of puddings were selling like flying.
I'm stuck in a macaron, so I bought an ice cream sandwiched between macaron.
The name is Macaron Biju. Biju means gemstone in French.

The contents of macaron are iced! It may be lighter and more delicious.
It would be nice to have a bite-sized place too. It was 1575 yen for 5.

　

 

　

 There was a line on the way back. It's going to be a new attraction in Ginza~♪

I'm already familiar with you.

The street on the south side of the intersection from amazake Yokocho in Ningyocho is lined with very famous line shops.

In the last few days, it has become easier to spend, so I've been going to have Oyakodon, saying 'That' Tamahide's strongest line ... ... ... ...

Before the report, I found such a signboard, so I would like to see it first (Gomennasai if you know).

Yes, from the amazake Yokocho intersection → "Cafe Sokaiseiken" → "Western Food Raifukutei" → "Tamahide," → If you go with "Western Shoku Koharuken", you will find a historical site explanation board of the birthplace of Junichirou Tanizaki. When I looked up on the stone slab as "Fu" ...

"Phantom Western Kannoyuki" and azuki-colored signboard jumped into my eyes My favorite eyes of sweet things are nailed to this azuki-colored signboard. The name of the restaurant is "Snow Snow"? Or the name of the product? ・... If it was a product name ... A Western Kan with the name "Snow Snow" is a splendid thing with the motif of the four sisters of the story ... "Tsuruko" "Sachiko", "Yukiko" and "Taeko" are all imagining that there are four types of flavors inspired by each of them!　　　　　　　　 And then Where is this signboard shop, I looked for a nearby place, but I couldn't find such a "wagashi" shop or "sweet shop" ... So I was sorry to ask the dispensing pharmacy on the first floor of the building where this sign was hung.  

It seems that there are quite a few people who ask the same question as me (somehow happy because I have friends), and depending on the place where I answered with a smile "Hi-Hi" ... . As you can imagine, in the past, there was a place where Japanese sweets were made behind this building, and the former appearance of this pharmacy was a dealer. It's very disappointing that I wanted to see at a glance what kind of "phantom Western Kan" was like, rather than the remorse that I couldn't buy and get it.

In the true sense, it's a "phantom Western Kan"!

Then, it's "Tamahide"'s Oyakodon.

  We ordered "Ganso Oyakodon" ￥1500. You can arrange it by 13:00, so I went out slowly and lined up in a line around 12:30. I was able to get to my seat in about 30 minutes. Of course, we have a shared seat. This time, a two-person office worker who was present said, "This is better than the super popular XX store!" (I also had the same opinion, secretly hit Unun. It's up to you).

Wednesday, September 9 10:00-12:00 Tour participants 10 tourist association 1 correspondent 2 total 13 people　

Kiya (knife) → Nihonbashi Kaishin (Tsukudani) → Bunmeido Nihonbashi Store (Castella) → Shigeru Kami (Hanpan, Kamaboko) 

 

After receiving a fun and meaningful explanation, we had a tour of the inside of the store and had souvenirs, and toured the Nihonbashi area, lined with long-established large stores that continued from the Edo period to the beginning of the Showa era as Japan's first fish market.

 

 

Kubei Hayashi, the first Kiya Honke, was a medicinal dealer for the Toyotomi family, but the younger brother of Ieyasu's invitation, descended to Edo and opened a shop in Honmachi 2-chome.

Since the Osaka store was divided into two, the forest with the last name was divided into two and called "Kiya".

The difference between Kanto and Kansai kitchen knives in Tokyo has a round part in front of the blade.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　In Kansai, the part in front of the blade is cornered.

How to sharpen kitchen knives　　

　　　　Use a commercially available cleanser to polish it.

　　　　The angle of the kitchen knife against the whetstone should be sharpened while keeping the same angle until the end.

※　The chrome stainless steel key ring with a picture of "Edo Nihonbashi", which was created to commemorate the 200th anniversary of its founding in 1792, is still gaining popularity among customers, so we still create the same one and distribute it to customers. We also received it.

 

 

 

About 400 years ago, the beginning of Kaishin was dedicated to the palace with the specialty of Ise and Kuwana.

120 years ago, he opened a store in Tokyo with goodwill, and since then he has preserved the taste without mass production, and still cooks Tsukudani every day at the factory behind the main store. Except for the stirrer, it is manual work.

I visited the clam Tsukudani factory.

The tasting of hot clams boiled in soup stock was very delicious.

Only the participants discounted the products of your shop by 2 discounts, and I bought a lot of expensive Tsukudani.

 

 

Nihonbashi Bunmeido

The birthplace of Castella is the Iberian Peninsula, Spain.

In 1571, a Portuguese ship entered Nagasaki as a place of trade.

In 1592, Toan Murayama presented castella to Hideyoshi at Hizen Nagoya.

After watching the explanation of the castella manufacturing process in the video, we received delicious castella and tea.

 

 

 

Shigeru Kami

In 1596, Ieyasu Tokugawa opened a fish market in Nihonbashi, and the Muromachi area prospered as a fish shore.

The first was Kanzaki Yachoemon, and later became Saburo Shigeru again, and the owner named Shigesa Daidai.

From the Meiji era, he took Kanzakiya's "God" and Shigeru Saburo Shigeru's "Shigeru" and called himself "Kanmo".

"Half-pen," ...

Shark fins are said to be three bales, and during the Edo period it was one of Nagasaki Trading's export seafood and was an important export source of Edo shogunate.

The sharks after taking the "fin" were traded in a large number of fish markets in Nihonbashi, and the beginning was made by Kamabokoya using the manufacturing method of "Shinjo".

The half of Shigeru Kami is still made of shark body and yam.

It is manufactured underground in the store.

It seems that he paid "Okamaboko" only for the throne of Emperor Meiji, Emperor Taisho and Emperor Showa.

 We had a taste of kamaboko.

"Oden" in the bag I bought as a souvenir was very delicious because it contains eight kinds of seeds.

 

The above photo shows "Okami" which supports a long-established store.

While talking to us, he taught us the importance of care and attention.

When he married himself, he worked on the spot.

The fact that such a person welcomes us at your store reminds us of the importance of the connection between people who are lost, as well as the feeling of buying Kamaboko in a long-established store.

 

This course is scheduled again on October 7 (Wednesday).

We are still accepting it.　　Please join us.

 

 

 

 

 

　I think everyone wants to walk around the city and take care of a delicious and cheap restaurant for daily lunch.　Today, I'm starting Yasuaki Elementary School, walking to Ryogokubashi, and introducing restaurants and Japanese-style cafes that sometimes take care of me near my workplace.

Ginza Blossom (Chuo Kaikan)

　You will be greeted by paradise bird flowers at the entrance and foliage plants of Monstera.

　When you enter the restaurant, there are a lot of delicious menus.

　The store manager's recommendation. Wagyu beef stew, ￥1200.

　I'm a bowl of rice this week. Let's make it 600 yen for a handbill or a tuna sesame flavor bowl of ￥700.

　Another recommendation of the store manager. Napolitan 600 yen.

　Previously, when I came to a doctor's opera presentation, I had a beer and whiskey water during the intermission.

I received it, but it is also recommended for a little parka.

 

 

　About 100 meters north of Honganji Temple at Tsukiji Station, "Uogashi Meicha" was introduced.

There is a Japanese-style cafe called "Cha no Ji Club" that you are doing.

　There was an errand near here, and last week I went three times in a row.

　The calm inside of the store and the quiet smile of the clerk.　I feel calm. Go up to the second floor

　It changes every day. Today is a Western-style confectionery made by a Japanese confectionery shop in Tochigi.

Cake-style sweets coated with white chocolate matched perfectly with Japanese tea.

Instead of tea in a teapot, there are four cups of sweets, so you can spend a relaxing and quiet time.

Thank you very much, I'm sorry.　

　Below is the tea ceremony on September 1st. The bean paste is wrapped in fertilizer. It's not too sweet, but elegant taste.

　We have been doing good tea for one week from September 1 and about one week from September 11.

(I'm sorry if the period changes!)

　If you wish to visit Tsukiji, please have tea.　You will be healed.
