[Showa Doritanken Record] #09: vegetarian sweets "AIN SOPH" (Ginza 4-chome)

[Dye] May 31, 2017 16:00

Last November, there was a shop with a nice atmosphere very close to Kabukiza.

     
This is "Ain Soph (AIN SOPH)".

    

s42_01.JPG

It is located along Showa-dori in the same block as Kabukiza Theater.

    

     

It is said that Ain Soph means "infinity". I wonder if the tree of life comes from.

We offer a complete vegan meal and sweets.

      

The Ginza store opened in 2009 and was reopened last November at the current store along Showa-dori. Sweets such as pudding, tiramisu, raisin sandwich are sold on the first floor, and meals are available on the second and fourth floors.

      

s42_02.JPG s42_03.JPG

There are also puddings and tiramisu ♡ Natural Granora.

      

      

       

I've been worried about it for half a year...
I finally got pudding and tiramisu.

       

         

s42_04.jpg

It's cute because it's in a bottle. It seems that pudding uses kudzu.

      

      

I love sweets very much, but they usually have plenty of animal protein and sugar, such as fresh cream, and if you eat too much, you will also swallow a little guilty. 。 。 (´・ω・`)
...Yes! !Ain Soph's sweets are made from animal protein-free and made from domestic and pesticide-free ingredients, so it feels like incorporating the power of nature into the body.

      

     
And it's really delicious.

When you pass your throat, you can think of a high-quality kuzumochi for a moment....But surely vanilla fragrant pudding and rich and fragrant caramel are exquisite match. Well, I can't tell you well in words, so please eat it (laughs).


Don't you think it's unsatisfactory if it's not something animal?...The concern was completely unfounded.
Children can say "Eat Tanto ^^" with peace of mind! ! I can't do it often (^^;
In fact, my home Taro Masanao ate with Pakpaku in an instant.

     

       
Everybody has the power of infinite (Ain Soph), but natural ingredients may bring out it.
There is also a sense of luxury, and I think you will be pleased with souvenirs (` ・ ω ・ ')!
I recommend it.

Correspondent-only tour "Brother Tokyo Showroom Visit Meeting"

[Edamame] May 31, 2017 09:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.


But this time it's not an article with children.

With the cooperation of family members, it will be held on weekdays morning.

We have participated in a tour limited to correspondents of the tourist association.

Click here for the destination.

DSC_1186-1.jpg

Thank you for visiting the Brother Tokyo Showroom.

IMG_2729-1.jpg

The location is very close to Kyobashi.

It's next to Tokyo Square Garden.


First of all, I would like to talk about the history of the company.

(Because the head office is Nagoya, he came all the way from there. Thank you very much. 

IMG_2704-1.jpg

Brother, a sewing machine! It's an image.

The birth of a domestic sewing machine is from here.

However, the current company's mainstay is digital office equipment.

IMG_2707-1.jpg

It is necessary to make molds necessary for sewing machines.

What is it because I was able to use it to create detailed prints for typewriters.

Furthermore, the business development of the karaoke “JOYSOUND” developed from network technology.

IMG_2720-1.jpg

At first glance, it doesn't seem to be connected, but in fact, the roots of technology are the same.

I am looking forward to seeing how our business development will progress in the future.


What surprised me in the story was the color of Brother's printer.

It seems that they only make white or black.

The reason is "consideration for the environment."

The reason is that adding other colors = the hassle of painting = also leads to environmental impact.

IMG_2714-1.jpg

Certainly, our printer (made by Brother) is also white!

I thought it was simple and good.

For the first time, I learned that there was a reason.

Well, from here, the experience corner!

1: Embroidered with a sewing machine on the hand towel.

http://www.brother.co.jp/product/hsm/embropc/index.htm

・・・ This is a challenge for Edamame who has not used a sewing machine since home economics class in the first year of high school.

I thought it would be okay, but what is the current sewing machine?

It's all written on the machine with a number on where to put the thread ...

At the same time, the machine also does the needle through the thread ... ! !

In fact, the so-called "garden goods" when my daughter Azuki goes to kindergarten.

I heard rumors that they are often required to be handmade.

I was so clumsy that I was afraid two years away.

I think I can still do this! It's excellent enough to think for a moment.

It was fun to choose various patterns of embroidery.

(I would like to post a photo, but I made it with the "real name" of Azuki ... I'm sorry ((+_+)))

No. 2: Making a craft card.

Put a group photo of today's participants on a postcard.

Let's decorate it.

First of all, it's the appearance of label sealing equipment.

IMG_2716-01.jpg

http://www.brother.co.jp/product/labelwriter/index.htm

I think label stickers also have a strong image of "office supplies".

There's also a Disney mount.

There are a lot of things that are cute and want to use.

It is designed to print a lot of cute patterns even on the machine.

Recently, transparent bottles and storage cases sold at 100 yen shops have been sold.

It is said that the number of people who enjoy decoration and enjoy it is also increasing.

With the correspondents sitting on the same table

I was having fun working with you.


And here's what I was most surprised.

It's a machine called "Scan Cut".

IMG_2728-1.jpg

http://www.brother.co.jp/product/hsm/cm/product/index.htm

When I was a company employee, I wanted one in the office! !I thought it was a clumsy edamame.

(I was a clumsy person who was always having trouble decorating at the event.)

It is a cutting machine that allows you to cut paper and cloth into your favorite shape without using scissors or cutters.

There are many patterns built into machines.

If you specify "this shape in this size", it will cut it neatly.

Of course, you can also take in the illustrations and photos you wrote yourself with a scanner and cut them out.

Even if I'm clumsy ...

IMG_2730-1.jpg

It was so beautiful!

It was a really fun experience.

It was also a good opportunity to chat with other correspondents.

I would like to participate again if I have the opportunity.

Ginza Observation from Yayoi Kusama Rooftop

[kimitaku] May 22, 2017 18:00

About a month after GINZA SIX opened on the site of the former Matsuzakaya in April 20, this year.

It's crowded with many customers.

There are many red balloons of Yayoi Kusama in the store.

I move to my eyes strongly and dance my heart.

ck1110_20170522 (1). JPG

  

Take the elevator to the rooftop from the 6th floor to the 13th floor.

The rooftop has a very large space and a place where you can get the greenery of the trees.

Nara and sawtooth oak are also planted, making it very close to nature.

ck1110_20170522 (4). JPG

  

The UNIQLO building is located on the west side of Chuo-dori. Dolls by the window are drawing a circle.

The south side is Shiodome City Center. The Kabukiza Building on the east side and the building with an antenna developed power supply.

On the north side of Harumi-dori St., Wako under your eyes. There is something like a wind power generation in the foreground.

You can see a little bit of the Tokyo Sky Tree in the distance.

The rooftop of GSIX also delivers a new landscape of Ginza to customers.

Series: 1 year old, first Kanda festival! ②Countdown until the day

[Edamame] May 17, 2017 18:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

 

Click here for the previous article. → /archive/2017/05/post-4331.html



Apply for a half-wearing rental of the Neighborhood Association.

I was getting a little festive feeling.

If you do so, you can see the state of the city becoming "festival specifications".

Sunday, May 7 A week before Kanda festival.

DSC_1097-1.jpg

On the street is a yellow flag with the word "Honsai Kanda festival."

DSC_1098-1.jpg

The banner of "Kanda Myojin Festival" is also at Ohiro Shrine in the town.

DSC_1096-1.jpg

I feel that the names of the donors have also increased.


May 9 (Tuesday). If you were walking around Ningyocho for errands.

DSC_1100-1.jpg

・・'All the World Flag!

But that's also a lively atmosphere.


And finally, May 12th (Fri).

The next day is the day when the festival procession "Shinko Festival" is also held.

Hamacho Park, which always brings her daughter Azuki.

DSC_1108-1.jpg

It is decorated by the neighborhood association next door.

And...

DSC_1111-1.jpg

I've borrowed my daughter Azuki's half-wearing and obi!

The size (including 90 cm) is also supposed to be written at the time of application.

The size is also perfect.

And they were distributed to all the children

A guard tag lowered from your neck.

It's a bit nice to have this.

This is the perfect preparation for the next day! That's right.


That's right. Speaking of preparation.

This is the most useful thing to enjoy the first Kanda festival.

This is the free paper "Nihonbashi Goyomi".

IMG_2694-1.jpg

The May issue is a special feature of Kanda festival.

Explanation of terms and descriptions that can be understood by people for the first time.

The state of the previous festival

And the route of the festival procession

A map with the approximate scheduled passage time was also posted.

It was very easy to see and understand!

If you have this, how long and where to go?

It's easy to set up a schedule.

As a matter of fact, my husband grew up in an area that has nothing to do with festivals.

I couldn't imagine the festival at all.

So, in this special feature, "It's such a great thing!"

I was surprised at the scale and glamorousness.

http://www.nihonbashi-tokyo.jp/enjoy/feature/201705/


"Nihonbashi Goyomi" has many interesting articles every month other than Kanda festival.

 It's a good reading.

 And the publisher "Machi Nihonbashi" site is also recommended with plenty of information.

Series: 1 year old, first Kanda festival! ①How do you participate?

[Edamame] May 16, 2017 09:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

I also talked a little bit about the program of Chuo FM that I visited the other day.

http://fm840.jp/blog/hello/2017/05/08/22187

I actually lived near Yushima Tenjin when I was little.

So at the festival in patron saint of academics

I was pulling the floats of the neighborhood association in a yukata.

You can hit the drums of floats or walk with your friends.

It's a nostalgic and fun memory.

・・Time flows ...

What did our family move about a year ago?

The area of Hamasan Eastern Town Association, the shrine parishioner of Kanda Myojin.

And this year is the main festival of Kanda Myojin.

It's a very grand festival once every two years.

Because I moved to this area

I want my daughter Azuki to experience the festival properly!

That was the secret hope of my mother, Edamame.

But when I was little, how do I participate?

I didn't know the part of "how" because it was a round throw to my parents.

I found a festival poster on the bulletin board.

DSC_1129-1.jpg

What should I do? Where should I ask? And

He was spending his time with a haze.

(... maybe you like this, too

Isn't there a lot in this area? ? I think so.

That's why I decided to write this article.

Hamacho area, condominium construction rush with great momentum recently.

There are a lot of new residents like me.

Then one day in late April.

There's such a letter on the bulletin board of the apartment.

IMG_2564-1.jpg

About the application for the neighborhood association's half coat.

When participating in the portable shrine, Children's portable shrine and Floats of Hamasan Eastern Town Association

You need to apply in advance.

For adults, 500 yen per sheet. In addition, it is a rule to prepare tabi.

Children are free of charge. Shoes are also free!

This year's application deadline was until April 26.

However, even though she is two years old, she is still a little girl.

As a matter of fact, I wonder if you can pull the floats ... If you are worried

It was the deadline for application.

I asked the condominium manager about the procedure in a hurry.

"I wish you could write your name in the application column below the posted notice."

It is a system that organizes in a condominium and submits it to the Neighborhood Association.

・・・ Nobody wrote the name as of the day before the day before.

Perhaps they had all pulled in their hands?

It's important to listen with courage.



I tend to overlook it

In the case of condominium residents, the condominium management association should join the neighborhood association.

You should always get information on the bulletin board.

After mid-April (if not, you should check it).

Never see the bulletin board of the apartment! Let's keep it as a secret word.

That's why Azuki (1-year-old child) applied for it barely slipped.

Kanda festival, this is the first time to participate!

~ Continue~


※I think that there are places where the procedure differs depending on the neighborhood association and the apartment where you live.

Please confirm with each neighborhood association and manager of apartment, management union.
