Fresh green weather

[Sunset Hill] April 25, 2010 17:05

Shinkawa Park with a frame. JPG 4/25 (Sun) I was surprised by the fresh fresh greenery of the trees along Shinkawa Park. The leaves of the cherry blossoms stretch out their hands (branches) for the first time in a long time, and seem to be sunbathing.

If the weather continues for a few days, it will be a green tunnel path. Shrink JPG

Espresso shop illy, which operates several stores in Chuo-ku.

The espresso cocktail night will be held at Nihonbashi Chuo-dori on April 19th.

There are many Seattle coffee shops in the United States, such as Starbucks and Tully's.

How about the espresso of Western Europe?

I borrowed it under my pen name, but I'm not involved. I'm a newcomer. Thank you very much.

 I crossed Eitai Bridge and ran to Yaesu Street. It seems that he was a participant of "Bicicicle Ride 2010 in Tokyo".

  

In addition, the cherry blossoms along the river were almost past their best, but a few of the skyscrapers were in full bloom. It was in a state where you could enjoy the cherry blossom viewing.

"The decorated cherry blossom branches use cut branches of flowering trees grown by farmers, and after completion, recycle them without incineration." .

It brings us the scent of spring and is useful as a resource.

[Satsuki Yanagi] April 8, 2010 08:30

On April 4th (Sun), the party that also served as the award ceremony for the "Japan Classic Car Contest" to decorate the finale of the "Spring Meibashi Nihonbashi Festival" was "Mandarin Oriental Tokyo".

I'm sorry to have joined the last seat. Let's report lightly ...

The event was co-sponsored by the Nabashi Nihonbashi Preservation Society and the Japan Classic Automotive Building Executive Committee.

Aside: The dress code of the day was "Please come in" kimono "as much as possible ... If you don't have it, use tuxedo". I couldn't help this ... I decided to find a visiting clothes from the back of the closet for the first time in a few years and wear it ...

It began with a greeting from Mr. Shotaro Kobayashi, Chairman of the JCCC.

Attendees include Daitokuji, who is familiar with car-related TVs and miscellaneous poems, and talent Masaaki Sakai, Kaoru Kanetaka ... And of course, the chairman of the Nabashi Nihonbashi Preservation Society and the president of a long-established Nihonbashi store ... There were many distinguished people.

The meal started with the toast of Vuvcrico Champagne.

Audble, fish dish.

White and red wine were also poured according to each dish.

 

After this, Petitfool and coffee were served.

While enjoying the meal, there was a song and dance of people from geisha in Yoshicho.

Apart from "East Odori", Mr. geisha (and from Yoshicho that has continued since the Edo period!) I can see the art of art in front of me ...

I was very impressed because I thought I could only see you when I visited a famous restaurant! !
