[Showa Doritanken Record] #03: Healing Aquarium (Kyobashi 3-chome)

[Dye] March 27, 2015 09:00

It's getting warmer and the flowers have begun to bloom, and it's getting a good day for a walk.

So this time, I would like to introduce some of the best shops to stop by when you are tired of walking around the city.

 

"Wine & Grill Kyobashi Terrace" along Showa-dori Street

It is a bar where you can enjoy lunch and cafes in the daytime and wine at night, and the exterior wall covered with greenery is a landmark.

From the A3 exit of Takaracho Station on the Toei Asakusa Line, go straight to the expressway for a few seconds (! ? Walk right hand.

I'm a little thrilled because I can't see the other side of the door, but let's go in.◎

  

 

The most recommended thing is the beautiful nature aquarium that spreads inside the store.

While watching tropical fish swim slowly, I forget that this is in the middle of the city for a while.

Inside the store. The number of fish...A lot of things I don't know (#` ・ ω ・ ')! That's right.

The bright tropical fish of blue and red are called "neontetra".

 

I go to lunch and cafe time, but I repeat it many times because the dishes are delicious and comfortable. The clerk is also kind ('@`*)

Lunch steak is savory and delicious, but reasonable

It seems that you can eat it in a bigger lump at night.

It was good to have tea only~

 

We also have a lot of wines, so I would like to visit dinner.

There seems to be a semi-private room.◎

 

During the walk, go back and forth for cherry blossom viewing, welcome and farewell party...etc

Chuo-dori is also lively, but why don't you be healed by a wonderful aquarium on Showa-dori?

Eitai-dori St., which has a lot of traffic.

There was only a small plum blossom in one corner of the sidewalk, and a wonderful flower bloomed.

Nihonbashi "Watasu" opened!

[Shiraji] March 15, 2015 14:00

 Four years after the Great East Japan Earthquake and the government's five-year intensive reconstruction period will be the last year.
However, with the exception of some infrastructure, recovery and reconstruction has not progressed, and problems such as work and housing have not yet been seen.
At this time, the media broadcasts news related to the earthquake disaster, but over time, even this unprecedented disaster gradually diminishes from the memory of many people....。 
But willn't it be from now on that affected areas and victims really need help? Even if volunteers with heavy labor and large donations cannot be made, it is important to remember the disaster victims and remember the disaster. I may be myself next time...。

 

 On the 3rd of this month, <Minamisanriku Exchange Facility> "Watasu Nihonbashi" opened beside Nihonbashi 1-chome Coredo Nihonbashi.
This facility provides ingredients from the town and Tohoku for the purpose of disseminating and exchanging information to support the affected areas in Tohoku, including Minamisanriku Town, Miyagi Prefecture, and provides learning support by university students. It is a base for disaster-stricken area support.
"Watasu" in "Watasu Nihonbashi" is not a Tohoku dialect, but has many meanings such as the meaning of the bridge between Minamisanriku and Nihonbashi, the "wa" of peace, and the addition of the circle of people It seems to have been put.

 This facility was established as a permanent base to support the reconstruction of Great East Japan Earthquake by Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd., after many employees visited Minamisanriku Town as volunteers for reconstruction immediately after the earthquake.

  

 Of the three-story buildings, the first and second floors are cafes that utilize seasonal ingredients from Minamisanriku and Tohoku, and "Watasu Cafe", a floor for eating and drinking and information dissemination, which transmits sightseeing and event information. You can enjoy "Watasu Lunch" with side dishes, tea with various flavors, and dinner at night. It is also said that sightseeing and event information are provided, agricultural and marine products, and reconstruction goods are always sold.
 The third floor connects the classrooms in Shitsukawa in Minamisanriku-cho via online, providing learning support for university students in Tokyo to provide supplementary lessons to local junior high school students, and reconstruction-related events and workshops will connect the affected areas and Nihonbashi.

 The recommendation of lunchtime at "Watasu Cafe" is 1380 yen, which is an all-you-can-eat "Watasu lunch" with all-you-can-eat rice cooked in eight Japanese and Western dishes using plenty of Sanriku ingredients, and bread with soup and seaweed. The contents are changed daily, but fresh ingredients from the four seasons directly sent from the production area are cooked and served in the most delicious way.
In addition, "Sanriku Seafood Chowder" 980 yen, "Sanriku Mekajiki Burger" 980 yen, "Fisherman Curry" 980 yen, etc. are used abundantly with rich seafood and mountain food from Minamisanriku and Tohoku. You.
All lunches are all-you-can-eat with bread kneaded with Sanriku seaweed? That's right.

 A variety of seasonal flavors are served during tea time, and dinner time is served with locally brewed sake and wine from Tohoku, with a focus on exciting seafood and fresh vegetables.

 The hotel is conveniently located a 1-minute walk from the metro Nihonbashi. When shopping or walking, while eating a delicious lunch at a cafe, read the free paper "Minamisanriku" issued by Minamisanriku-cho, pick up reconstruction goods, and think about the restoration and reconstruction of Great East Japan Earthquake once again?

[Mr.Chuo-ku] March 10, 2015 15:00

BEST of the BEST of the BEST Bridgestone Museum

[kimitaku] March 4, 2015 14:00

DSC_0514IDSIBASI-1.JPG Bridgestone Museum of Art 

  The "Best of the Best" is being held at the Bridgestone Museum of Art.

 Please enjoy it as the cold days continue and there are few customers.

 The Bridgestone Museum of Art will be closed from May 18 due to new construction.

 For the last exhibition before the museum closed, this time, we introduce a total of 160 items, the best selection of the 1600 collections of the Ishibashi Foundation managed by the museum.


 ・・... I like visiting museums, but only this time, I really enjoyed the wonderfulness of paintings and sculptures. I felt like I was watching the works of the museum that I have traveled around in my life for decades in one day. ・・・・・

P1010261-1.jpg P1010260-1.jpg

 

Sculpture of Zackin, familiar to Chuo-ku (the creator of the statue of Messenger at Chuo-ohashi Bridge). Unlike usual, where you actually pick it up and watch it when you go back. Manemonesezannegogh Yuzo Saeki Tsuguji Fujita, etc.

Most of the paintings on display have been introduced in the media such as television.

There are many things that you can actually appreciate the touch of a master with the naked eye, without a glass frame.

 

 I was particularly impressed by Boldel: Hercules Cezanne, who plays a bow: Mt. Victoryr Modiliani: Young farmer Okanosuke: Snow Power Plant Shigeru Aoki: Young clowns, etc.  

 With a stub, you can enter at half the entrance fee (800 yen) again. Please don't miss this opportunity.
