Nihonbashikabutocho is a mecca in the Japanese financial industry, where banks and securities companies are concentrated, including the Tokyo Stock Exchange. One part of this is the Kabuto-cho branch of Megabank Mizuho Bank.
The nameplate of "Bank Birthplace" is posted on the wall of the building.

 
If you follow the source of Mizuho Bank, the origin is (Daiichi Kangyo Bank ⇒ Daiichi Bank ⇒ Imperial Bank ⇒ Daiichi National Bank).

The Daiichi National Bank was founded in June 1873 by Eiichi Shibusawa (Tempo 11 to 6), a businessman representing the industry in the Meiji era, with the funds of Mitsui Gumi and Onogumi. This is the first bank in Japan that was founded in accordance with the Bank Ordinance (established in 1872).

In 1869, Eiichi Shibusawa, who received a resignation from the new government and a regular appointment of the Ministry of Finance's tax, decided to decline in view of his background as a former Shogunate, and decided to directly convey his intention, in order to directly convey his intention, he was a powerful person of the Ministry of Finance.
Visit a private residence at Tsukiji of Daisuke Okura and Shigenobu Okuma (Tempo 9-11).
However, we agree with the strong participation and enthusiasm of young Okuma in the formation of a new nation, and accept the entry.
For three and a half years, the ministry has been involved in the formulation of a number of policies, including the enactment of the National Bank Ordinance, but over the issue of budgeting, Toshimichi Okubo (Bunsei 13-11) led by Toshimichi Okubo (Bunsei 13) - May 1873, Shimono was Shimotsuke in May 1873.

All-you-can-eat fruits from the world at the popular Senbikiya Sohonten is
You can make a reservation for one month on the first day of each month.
But every month in 2.3 minutes, I was able to make a reservation in the 7th month with tears of "full seats".

The fruit buffet at Sembikiya is available.
The event is held at Nihonbashi Main Store, Maihama Ixpiari, and Takashimaya Food Maison Shin-Yokohama.
The head office hours are 4,200 yen every Monday night from 7 to 9.

The restaurant is on the second floor and the first floor is on the first floor. The product lineup is as expected!
There are lots of financiers, cakes and cookies that I have never seen elsewhere in Takashimaya or elsewhere.

　

First of all, there is a fruit sandwich in the basket and a marinade of appetizer in front of you.
The sandwich was wrapped in the wrap properly.
Fruit sandwiches are "strawberry, pine, mango, kiwi"
"Avocado, tomato, lettuce". The latter is full of things I don't like (laughs).
Marina is a fish, onions, or broccoli cauliflower Maline.

　

First of all, I went to get a drink. There are about 6 kinds of fruit-based drinks.
Both orange juice and passion fruit ede were delicious.
But most people were drinking "mask melon" juice. I think it was quite delicious.
I don't drink melon because it's x.

At first, curry.
I served two kinds of mango special curry and hashed beef on a plate.
I don't like mango, but mango curry was delicious!
I thought so and tried mango, but the raw mango was x (laughs).

There are about how many kinds of fruits ...
Mask melon, Fuyu persimmon, watermelon, rumbhutan, kiwi, Komizunashi, mandarin, mangostine, mangostine, durian, star fruit, lyche, banana, grapefruit, ruby grapefruit, honeyju melon, blueberry, avocado, pineapple
It may have been there yet, but I remember this much.

I tried both the melon of Senbikiya, Hanejumeron and Maskmelon, but it was useless.
It's quite a melon ... Isn't it the best for those who like it? !
Banana, pineapple, grapefruit and mandarin orange were delicious.

　

But I was dissatisfied with the fact that there were no strawberries and peaches.
I went in the middle of winter, so it's impossible to order! But it seems that strawberries do not come out at any time ...
I was expecting Amaou or Hakuho, but the season when there are few fruits and the busy season of Shiwasu.
So I may have made a reservation. It may be the target in December!

And his stomach became quite limited, and he took coffee to improve digestion.
At the same time, the cookie was on the side.
There, I saw a shopman distributing strawberry shortcakes to each table.
"Oh? You may not be able to do this. If you don't have such a thing, let me say first."

The strawberry short that came in front of me looks delicious again.
Speaking of which, strawberries eat only fragments in fruit sandwiches ...

　

The cake is said to be a separate stomach, but the cake after the fruit was the same stomach (laughs).
Fresh cream and it was really delicious, and it was really delicious.
I couldn't eat unless I took a break to eat one.
I ate too much to go out of the store (laughs).

But it was good to be able to experience the long-awaited Senbikiya fruit buffet (* ^^ *)
Next time I would like to come in midsummer!
