Extreme cherries in Higashine City, Yamagata Prefecture, a friendship city

[Nyan,] June 28, 2017 09:00

 Until now, cherries have been described as "amake" on anmitsu. Fruits that you can put in your mouth without any hesitation, saying that you are eating because it is wasteful.
Speaking of Western food, it is like parsley on a salad with a hamburger.
Speaking of vinegar pork, it doesn't matter if it's like pineapple, but it's attached for some reason ...

I have to scold myself who had such a feeling! We have to completely change our perception! What I thought was ...
No other, since I started eating carefully selected cherries made in Higashine City, Yamagata Prefecture, a friendship city of Chuo-ku.

Some people may have seen the name of "Fruit Kingdom Higashine" by wrapping the community bus "Edo Bus" running in the city. I was worried about wrapping the Edo bus, so I participated in the "Higashine Sakurambo Marathon" (half marathon) held in Higashine City every June.

This running event in Higashine is a popular tournament that has been selected as one of the "100 Runnings". A lot of hospitality and hospitality are the secrets of the popularity, but the biggest feature is the enhancement of the "Cherry" aid provided on the way! While I was running, I greeted "the number of cherries I ate a day, the largest day in my history." The pace of eating as an excuse slows down, just remembers more than records. I was very satisfied with the time.

Cherry carefully selected among Higashine products. When you have beautiful shining fruits, the elegant sweetness spreads in your mouth with "puffy" elasticity and the subtle acidity that complements it. This is delicious. After all, the real thing is different.

It is said that small but rich fruits make full claims ... Is it like Chuo-ku in Tokyo! ?
Please try delicious cherries.

(The photo shows the Higashi Cherry Marathon. An unusual course layout that allows you to run through the SDF garrison. You can also enjoy talks with celebrities in the running world, Kin, World Championships medalist Chiba and Ogiwara. )

"Chuo-ku" flower town

[Shitamachi Tom] June 26, 2017 12:00

 In Chuo-ku, the “Chuo-ku Declaration of Flower City” was enacted in April 1989, and we are working to realize a beautiful town and a clean town surrounded by flowers and greenery. Because it is a big city, you are aiming to create a town that is easy to spend by incorporating a little green landscape.

 
 In addition, in March 2010, the "Green Adapt System" was established to promote the creation of a system that makes it easier for residents and local people to participate in greening activities, and to create a town with flowers. . Based on this system, flower bed volunteers are being recruited from time to time for residents and workers in the city to help manage the planting of flowers in flower beds such as parks and "flowering street corners". http://www.city.chuo.lg.jp/kurasi/borantia/katsudosuishin/hanasaku.html

 

201705_ Care for Flowers (2)_R.jpg By the way, the "Adapt System" is a system in which local residents and businesses clean and beautify public infrastructure and manage them. Efforts are being made to enhance the community through cooperation between the government and residents.

201705_ Care for Flowers (1)_R.jpg I take care of the flowerbed with my family even near me. I hope it will lead to the work of resting the eyes of those passing by. I would like tourists and visitors to spend comfortably in Chuo-ku.

 

 When I meet a "flower bed volunteer" on the street corner, I would be glad if you could say a word. I want to be a town full of flowers and smiles.

 

 

So, do you say "daikon actor"?

DSCN0784 (2). JPGThe birthplace of Edo Kabuki, the site of the Kyobashi Daikon Riverside Vegetable Market

 

This is 3-4 Kyobashi, Chuo-ku.

The two stone monuments are in the same place.

It was erected in 1957 as the birthplace of Kabuki.

 

It was in 1624 that Nakamuraza was allowed to play a drum tower in the southern part of Nakahashi. Since then, it has continued for 270 years until 1893. At that time, it was a very lively place with huts such as puppet manipulation and Joruri. After that, the industrial goods were removed for reasons close to Edo Castle and moved to Nihonbashi Horidome-cho.

 

The stone monument at the site of the Seimono Market was erected in 1959 in retrospective of the opening of the market for 280 years.

 

The market was located in Kitazume, Kyobashi River, which has good water transportation. The name of the radish is given because the large number of radishes arrived. It has nothing to do with the birthplace of Kabuki. I hope you'll be sure.

 

After that, it was merged with Tsukiji Central Wholesale Market in 1935 and moved to.

Please take a look while shopping in Ginza.

Higashiginza's smart sushi restaurant Higashiginza Edogin 

[kimitaku] June 23, 2017 16:00

There is a shop near the Kabukiza Theater.

It may be a little difficult to understand because it is in the alley of the street.

 

When I opened the door, she greeted me with a smile of the landlady.

The menu says, "It looks young, but it's full-scale for 20 years ..."

It's written.

ck1110_20170623(4). JPG(← Click to increase it.) 

All the stories are natural.

The other day, "The big thing about Kozushima Island came in." I recommend it to me with a full smile.

 

The hand handling of sushi is also very delicate.

It feels like the goodness of the ingredients is really brought out in the consistency of sushi.

 

Sake is also a brand that I don't know, which is a self-proclaimed "tsuri".

It seems that the owner chose everything by himself.

It is a limited product that is unknown, and each brand seems to change depending on the season.

・・・ Be careful not to drink too much.

I asked the owner.

I would like you to have a nice meal with sake with natural fish.

That's right.

He spoke with a full smile.

 

At the entrance, "Aim for ... ☆" is written.

I also want to be a regular of such a store.

(Lunch lunch is also full of satisfaction. The soup stock taken from the fish is fresh. )

・・... "Higashiginza Edo Gin" ... 

Telephone 03-3543-3336 Address 3-14-7 Higashi Ginza, Chuo-ku

 About a 5-minute walk from Kabukiza Theater. The landmark is very close to the signboard of the Tokachi Mainichi Shimbun.

Shinroku Hazama Peace pagoda

 

DSCN0722 (2). JPGChushingura, which is always broadcast every year at dusk.

He joined the enemy of Takumi Asanouchi with his father and brother (it is said to have given the first spear to Kira Uenosuke).

 

In the defeat of Kira's house, he belonged to the back gate squad and cut off at Mori's house with each other.

The remains were buried in his own Tsukiji Honganji, Bodaiji Temple, by his son-in-law Nakado Matasuke.

 

Naturally, there are different tombstones at "Honganji alone" and "Sengakuji sleeping with each other".

 

DSCN0723 (2). JPGIt is a tradition, but after the defeat, there is a story in which one's spear and Kaneko of the memorial service were connected and thrown into the precincts at the time of withdrawal.

It seems that "Shinroku no Red Spear" still remains as a temple treasure. (Not available)

It's right next to Tsukiji Market. Please drop in on your way home from shopping.
