[marche of the Sun] It's great! Just you and Pitterobianko

[TAKK...] September 14, 2016 12:00

Last year, when I went to Aomori, I learned that there was a delicious corn called "Take Kimi".

I thought, "I definitely want to eat it," but it was out of the harvest time and I got a vacuum pack.

 

It's been over a year since then.

At Tsukishima Daini Children's Park, we found "Takekimi" with skin at "marche of the Sun" held on the second weekend of every month.

"Mikimi" is a corn grown and harvested in the "Take Kogen" at an altitude of 400 to 500 meters at the foot of Mt. Iwaki, Aomori Prefecture.

 The sugar content of freshly picked "Takemi" is more than 18 degrees.
 It is a very sweet brand corn from Aomori Prefecture.

A lot of grapes are also sold.

Among them, it is very rare (for me.......I decided to buy "Pitterobianko".

The photo is a small part of it for serving, but I bought a lot of it.

It was so heavy that it was a reasonable price.

The fruit is stuffy and I eat it with skin.

The longing "Takemi" is available in Chuo-ku.......。

I can't feel it.

 

 

Show window in Ginza

[kimitaku] September 2, 2016 16:00

In Ginza, famous brands from all over the world open stores.

The show window of the shop is also unique.

I'd like to introduce some of them today.

It seems interesting to take a closer look at each shop.

 Each store has its corporate philosophy status.

It feels like it's clear.

The decoration of the window is after closing.

Many are done in the middle of the night.

 

 

This is a guide to the Orimine Bakers Kachidoki store.

 The signboard of the big bear bread is a landmark.

 

 When you enter the store with a bear sign, there is a space where you can relax and choose bread.

 In the back of the window, we are in the middle of the bakery with enthusiasm.

 A genuine and delicious bread that does not use emulsifiers or yeast is baked.

 

 Invited by the slight fragrance of wheat, I put French bread and some in the basket.

 The last thing that caught my eye was the daiko bread. 

 A small octopus sits on a round bread.

 When you bite French bread 

 The plump scent of wheat spreads in your mouth.

Each bread is very unique. Idako bread tasted like a blue sea.

[Tachibana] August 23, 2016 09:00

Unlike yesterday's intense thunderstorm, August 21 was a sunny and hot day today, but the All Japan Tug of War Festival was held at the Chuo Ward Sports Center in Hamacho Park.

Of course, the main is a serious battle between "General", "Junior Youth", "Champman Women" and "Champman Men".

It is an embedded shield with gold, silver and bronze medals awarded to the winning teams of each part.

It's a battle with every effort.



On the other hand, during the lunch break, there was a tug-of-war between the children, the sumo wrestlers in the Arashio room, and the beautiful women in the middle of Miss Chuo.

Even if you say children, I can't be reckoned because I practice properly as a team.

And finally, peaceful

The tug-of-war is good because it is held in an air-conditioned gymnasium, but the Chuo-ku sightseeing certification booth and the old-fashioned play corner of the tourist association are stalls made outdoors in the park, so it is very hot. Among them, the correspondents of the tourist association, the tourist association, and the Miss Chuo were working hard with sweat.
Thank you very much for all of you.

"MCUD Ginza" located in Ginza 2-chome has opened its grand opening on July 27 with the name "Pazzle Ginza"!

 

Directly connected to Ginza 1-chome Station on the Tokyo Metro, the exterior is decorated with various large and small windows reminiscent of puzzle pieces.

It consists of a total of eight stores, including BCBGMAXAZRIA flagship store and restaurants.

It seems that the concept is to make it a facility that can be used in various scenes.

 

 

Nippon Maru Kaiomaru at Harumi Wharf

[kimitaku] July 27, 2016 12:00

Take a walk at Toyoumi Wharf on a hot day in July.

Looking at Harumi Wharf on the opposite shore, a big sailing ship was found.

I was anchored against the background of Rainbow Bridge.

Compared to the pier observation deck, you can feel the size of the ship.

When I approached the hull toward Harumi Wharf. There is a golden emblem on the bow.

It was shining brightly in the morning sun.

It is a pity that Kaiomaru II (pictured in the center above) cannot be seen near the anchorage near Shin-Toyomi Bridge at Harumi Wharf.

Nippon Maru Kaiomaru is sometimes anchored at Harumi Pier. It's unusual for both to be anchored. 

 

〇 Nippon Maru (Nipponmaru) The second generation started service in 1984           

2570 tons Total length 110.09m total width 13.80m mast height 43.5m

〇 Kaiomaru Nisei launched service in 1989. 

2556 tons total length 110.09m total width 13.80m mast height 43.5m. (Wikipedia)
