Do you know "Sashicho-san"? Marunaka Corporation

1. February 26, 2017 09:00

Recommended for those who say "the toes are long and ordinary tabi have tight fingers." It is not used in large quantities like those who do arts, so it is suitable for those who take a foot mold at a tabi specialty store and order it. It seems that "finger length tabi" has been around for a long time, but recently demand has increased rapidly for young people and foreigners. While walking around the wholesaler street in Yokoyamacho, I found a shop with lots of tabi. When asked, "Is it retailing also done?" I asked you with confidence with the answer "Of course!" I asked for a cute "Sashicho" immediately. It seems to be "making only the toe part 5mm longer with normal size". In addition, it's a wholesaler, so it's a bargain that surprises you than the usual selling price. It was a kimono shop, but there were plenty of accessories, and when I asked to pick up "Sashicho-san", I had this and smiled unintentionally. Of course, thanks to Mr. Sashicho, he was released from many years of pain in his fingers. It is a really recommended shop for those who are wearing kimonos.

Lunch buffet on the top floor of the hotel

[Slow of Satsuki's Koi] February 20, 2017 16:00

How about a lunch buffet at the top floor of the hotel?

. 

The location is Suitengu Royal Park Hotel. Access is directly connected to Suitengumae Station on the Hanzomon Line.

You don't need an umbrella even on rainy days.

 

The lunch buffet is held at several restaurants, but this time I went there.

"Restaurant & Banquet" Palazoo ""

The hotel's twentieth floor, the top floor. The room is not very large, so you can enjoy a meal slowly in a calm atmosphere, and if you have a seat by the window, you can enjoy the view from the 20th floor.

Arima Elementary School, which has a deep history in the lower right of the Sky Tree, is difficult to see in the shadow of the building on the right side of the photo.

 

 

The dishes are mainly Western dishes, but there are also sushi and some dishes that the chef cooks in front of you.

The steak was cooked. Since it is one of the popular menus, there are times when chots are lined up.

There are also sushi and santouch.

 

 

It is said that the content will change slightly depending on the season and purchase. The whole family agrees that the ingredients were carefully selected and all the dishes were delicious.

There are a lot of desserts, at this time the pudding was the best, but it was gone. ・・ ・ But it's okay, when I told the person in charge, he added it in about 15 minutes.

Reservations can be made on the Internet, but it is so popular that your convenience and the availability of reservations may not fit easily.

If you can go on weekdays, I think that "weekday limited one holiday" including toast drinks and tax service charges is good.

For me, this is my third test.

I remember the heavy snowfall three years ago and the test start time was delayed.

kankoken03.JPG

The test time is 90 minutes from 10:30 to 12:00, and the number of questions is 100.

The score is scored for each question, and the pass standard is 75% or more.

The theme this time was "Kyobashi Area", where 10 questions were asked about the area around Kyobashi and Yaesu in Chuo-ku.

After the examination time is over, you will be given an answer on the way home, so you can score yourself immediately.

Unfortunately, I was mistaken when I was asked where my memory was ambiguous, but I was lucky.

Question 49: The question of asking the name of the building that contains the Currency Museum, "The Bank of Japan New Building", "The Bank of Japan Annex", and "the Bank of Japan Annex", and the results are correct. I was lucky

By the way, there was a description in the text (page 32), and I went on the way home and confirmed it.

It was so well displayed.

It seems that the announcement of acceptance was made in early March.
