Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

In Kanbun 12 (1672), a drifting haiku poet Matsuo Basho (the haiku at that time was Sofusa).
29 years old, 1644-1694) left Iga Ueno to stand as a haiku master.
I'm going down to Edo.

He used the peach blue haiku since 1675 (1675, 32 years old).
Sugikaze, Motosumi, Arashiyuki and others, village headman, and leading merchants, and provide support.
Get it and establish a shomon.
In 1678, he stood as a master.

It was a short period of time until he retired to Soan in Fukagawa in 1680.
Taro Ozawa (haiku, Urashaku) store in Honodawara-cho (1-chome, Nihonbashi Muromachi),
Live in
1679, peach blue 36, I will examine this phrase.
 
　　"Spring of Matsuo Momo Aojuku"

"Nihonbashi Funasa" storefront in Muromachikoji in Nihonbashi Kitazume.
stone monument marks the fact that Basho left a footprint in Nihonbashi.
 

Basho's important works, "Nozarashi Noriyuki", "Oi no Kobun", and travel literature
The masterpiece "Oku no Hosomichi" has been written since Fukagawa moved to Basho-an.
For Basho, the Nihonbashi period was the infancy for subsequent activities.
It was a preparation period for the next leap.

 

 

This is a continuation from the long-established relay tour of Nihonbashi (VOL.2).

Next, I went to a visit to Ninben, which was not included in the original schedule.

Ninben

 It is a large store that has been in business since the Edo period since Genroku 12 (1699) to 310 years.

He is a senior managing director who was happy, smiling, and friendly to sudden visits.

HP: http://www.ninben.co.jp/ Click on several places in the image of the store on the top page to see the inside of the store! )

On the basement floor, there are very valuable materials and ukiyo-e, such as the famous "Japan (even in the world) first gift certificate" and "No cash value", which tell the 3rd century of "Ninben". He explained it interesting but interestingly.

When the Satsuma and Choshu clan of late Tokugawa shogunate was active (), he forcibly came to borrow money and left a borrowed book ...

In addition, Shinpachi Nagakura of Shinsengumi came and asked the store to write a certificate stating that "I want you to borrow money" and put a borrowed book ... ... ...

In each case, it was very interesting to see if the money came back ... Akudoi and the story that really happened.

This is an ukiyo-e painting depicting a real restaurant in Nihonbashi, which is familiar with the story of "Momokawa" in rakugo. I'm embarrassed that my memory is not clear, but ... Kuniyoshi Utagawa's work ...

The story "Momokawa" is a restaurant that the Shogunate used for entertainment when he arrived at Perry in late Tokugawa shogunate, and was close to Ninben-san and near the current Fukutoku Inari Shrine.

Next is lunch at Kappo cuisine Toyoda, which I was really looking forward to.

It's Kappo cuisine.

  http://gwill.co.jp/toyoda/index.html　　　　　　　　　This is also a long-established store that has continued since Bunkyu 3 (1863). “Nihonbashi Tour” website: http://www.ninben.co.jp/meguri/ Representative of Nihonbashi Producer Guide Haruki Kawasaki & 7 participants, a total of eight people were invited to a guest room called "Autumn Leaves" with a dug kotatsu that is nice to walk tired from the shoji door. 　　　　　　　　　　　　 Shortly after the meal was served, the fifth generation young husband who succeeds the fourth generation husband and holds the current kitchen knife: Mr. Toru Hashimoto came and explained it.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　After studying at another long-established Japanese restaurant, the young husband entered his parents' home "Toyoda" and later served as the chef of the Japanese ambassador's residence in Germany. Also, as a specialty of young husbands, "Hamo cuisine" and "Edomae Anako white grilled" are always famous.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

  "Toyoda" opened a sushi restaurant on the fish shore of Nihonbashi in 1863, and then set up a store in Honishi-cho and moved to its current location.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 The disciples are showing photos of the stores of "Toyoda Shokudo" and "Gravel Cooking" around 1897, and those who brought celebration when newly built in Honishi-cho in 1872 It is "Sawayama Mochigo Book" (← How to name the list is smart).　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

I don't know, and "Toyoda" was also damaged by the Satsuma / Choshu clan in late Tokugawa shogunate, Shinsengumi, etc., and the borrowed letter was left, and it is unknown whether it was refunded ... It was. Then, when I was operating at a stall on the Nihonbashi Fish Bank, a sushi restaurant, for example, asked for "bonito, grip," and it seems that 6 sticks came out (currently there are many 2 sticks, 1 stick There is also a place).　　　  

The dishes include sashimi, Saikyo-yaki, cooking of ganmodoki and root vegetables, tempura, fried chicken of "Toyoda" specialty Shiba shrimp, etc. ... I imagined the strong taste of Edo-mae, but it was a delicious neat dish that was not light despite the Kansai style, with clear soup that worked everywhere. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

It was dissolved after the meal was over.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　This time, I participated for the first time, but I realized once again that the Nihonbashi area, which usually walks around, really only the surface.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　It was a tour that was very interesting, fun, and valuable, listening to the stories of the shop people, showing things that you could not usually see. I wish I had more time ... I honestly thought.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

Also, I was a participation by one person ... The other six of me were friends from Chiba, but I was really impressed that I was able to talk to me like a friend without separation and have fun together on that day Thank you very much to everyone who came together.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

Finally, this "Nihonbashi Long-established Relay Tour" is very recommended. 

 

 

 

It's not enough to enter a coffee shop, but when I want to take a break, here Kuyasu
A space like a bridge park is ideal.
 
It faces Yaesu Street, which has a lot of traffic, so the noise is great.
People, pigeons and fountains are all taking a break.
 
While there are many non-smoking areas, ashtrays are also installed beside the bench.
 Not only smokers but also women can smoke without hesitation.
 
The pigeon is a square filled with granite-like pavement tiles, making it comfortable.
Relaxing.

The fountain that makes a pleasant sound of water drops the amount of water and takes a break.

 The silence in the hustle and bustle.
Kibana cosmos fills the midsummer day and gives a lively yellow flower.
It blooms in full bloom.
 

 

If you were walking along the back street of Kyobashi / Meijiya (between Chuo-dori and Sotobori-dori St.) on Saturday during this time, I was walking along the back street of Kyobashi / Meijiya (between Chuo-dori and Sotobori-dori).

Kinjiro Ninomiya (?) as shown in the photo The statue of a food shop (?) It was displayed at the storefront. The table of "Yaesu Book Center" is decorated with a golden "Kinjiro Ninomiya statue", but it is true that it is in front of an ordinary shop. 。 。

Do you have any other questions? 。 Did you find it in Tsukiji Elementary School in front of Tsukiji Honganji?

It's not a statue of Kinjiro now, but I remember that it was in the elementary school where I used to go. 。 。 If you look for it in Chuo-ku, it may remain in various places.

 

 

 

 

On a sultry Sunday afternoon, I went to Senbikiya Fruit Parlor on the 2nd floor of Mitsui Tower in Nihonbashi in search of refreshing sweetness.

In the Nihonbashi area There were not so many crowds, but as for Senbikiya, I decided to wait in front of a famous store, about 15 minutes. If you wait, your expectations will increase. In front of the store, there is a signboard of mango parfait because it is the seasonal taste.  

Mango is sold at the fruit sales floor on the first floor of Mitsui Tower, which sells over 10,000 yen. For the common people, I was afraid of the price that slightly exceeded the meaning of the word "luxury", so I ordered a peach parfait instead of a mango parfait.  

But this is the right answer!

The peaches were fresh, soft, and made them feel the taste of the season, and fresh cream and vanilla ice were never too much forward, elegant sweetness. In order from the parfait, the last one that appears at the end is the peach sauce gently left at the bottom of the glass vessel. This is delicious again! Peach parfait that starts with peaches and ends with peaches is the main character. I was very satisfied.

Sembikiya was founded in 1834 (Tenpo era 5). I was able to feel the traditional taste of 175 years.
