Delicious bread and cake shop

[The cat on the slope] March 24, 2010 13:00

The reality is that there is not much cafe where you can enjoy freshly baked delicious cakes, bread and drinks with one coin, and you can relax. I think there's a lot in Chuo-ku.
The name of the shop is "Café Aladdin". ← Please refer to this site for the location and business hours.

The lunch set is 500 yen for soups, salads, daily breads, desserts and drinks (you can choose), and the set of cakes and drinks is 480 yen, which is a surprise and concentric price.

An example of a lunch set. Soup and drinks are also included!

"Aladdin" is operated as part of the activities of "Rainbow House Akashi", a living support facility for the intellectually disabled in Chuo Ward, and users of the facility work.

Even during busy lunchtime, everyone is smiling and ordering quickly.

[The cat on the slope] March 16, 2010 09:30

As the words "Heat and cold to the equinoctial week," the sun has become warmer.

Here and there, cold scarlet cherry blossoms like incense burners are competing for color,

Yoshino cherry tree seems to be taking a deep breath for flowering.

From this weekend in Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, where the stunning weeping cherry tree welcomes people.
The Sakura Festival will be held.

At this time when a new life begins, it's a good idea to have a cherry blossom viewing at a shrine and tighten your feelings.

The nearest station is Tsukishima Station on the Oedo Line and Yurakucho Line. Exit 6 is convenient.
(There is a map that is convenient for walking around the city just outside the station.)

This year again, as a signal of the coming of spring in the ward, the Hikanzakura on the shore of Eidaibashi Bridge tells the city of spring.

It has bloomed. It is in full bloom as of March 12 (Friday).

The location is on the shores of Eitai Bridge on the Chuo-ku side (downstream side).

It is recommended to stop by at Riverside Walk.

Maybe it will be in full bloom until early next week.

Yataro Iwasaki, the founder of Mitsubishi, who appears in NHK Ryomaden, was established right next to it.

There is also a monument to the Shosen School.  (ww)

For example, we usually sell largefish fish only with a whole fish, but only on Saturday, we sell them as fillets.

They put out stalls at the store only on Saturday and provide freshly baked scallops ... It seems that each shop will be a sales system for general customers.sign01

Kawazu Sakura and Japanese white-eye

[Yurikamome] March 2, 2010 09:30

At present, the way home from buying Tsukudaniya, which has only three houses left in Tsukuda, ...

We took a detour and went to see Kawazu cherry blossoms on the northwest side of Chuo-ohashi Bridge. (An article about a cat on a hill

Just as Mejiro was playing on the branches.

It moves around the twig and doesn't stop for a second.

It was difficult to capture it in the camera, but I think, "If you shoot a few bad guns, you will hit them."

It is two of the shutters that have been released many times.

It's called Mejiro (Japanese white-eye) because my eyes are white.

Kawazu cherry blossoms are said to be a cross of Kanhizakura and Oshima cherry blossoms.
