Yoshiko Tanaka, a former Candies member who died at the age of 55 last April, an actress who died at the age of 55.

An event (exhibition) is being held at Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi after the anniversary of Mr.

Because I was an old fan, I went to the interview.

At the venue, as if he condensed Yoshiko Tanaka's 55-year life, he was from childhood.

Photographs, energetic Candy's album, and as an actress

Costumes, scripts, videos such as movies and commercials are installed.

In addition, based on Aya Sumi, which started under studying under Tsurutaro Kataoka, and the zodiac that I drew every year.

Painters, favorite paintbrushes and rock paints are also on display.

There are many women who came to the venue, and there are also figures crying in some places.

I realized that Mr. Tanaka was loved by many fans.

There is always a shop corner at the exit of the venue, and Candies CDs.

Books, related goods, as well as products that Mr. Tanaka appeared in commercials were also sold.

I did it.

The entrance fee for this exhibition is 500 yen, but the full amount is the charity for East Japan Reconstruction Support.

This will be donated to the Ashinaga Rainbow House Construction Fund, an Ashinaga Ikueikai.

That's right.

Hyakukawa, a luxury restaurant in Ukiyokoji

[the end] April 24, 2012 08:30

On February 10, 1854 (1854), the first negotiations were held to conclude the Japan-US Peace Treaty.
At this time, he served Honzen dishes based on tradition with 2,000 cars.
Where was the famous restaurant that was written on the tile?

The answer is Hyakukawa, a luxury restaurant in Nihonbashi Ukiyokoji.
It was a problem that was issued in the Edo Cultural History Test last year.

Hyakukawa was formed around Meiwa and Yasunaga (1764-81).
In the Tenmei era (1781-87), it became a well-known Takufuku restaurant, and in the time of Bunka Bunsei (1804-30), it flourished as a luxury restaurant for Honzen cuisine.
The meal price for one person is the lowest price, and it is said that it is currently worth about 10,000 yen.

Hyakukawa was also closed down in 1868.
Between Muromachi 2-2 and 2-4, the opposite side of Mitsukoshi Main Store.
It seems that the place where Fukutoku Shrine is now is just the place where Hyakukawa was.
 

 

Traffic safety fair & disaster prevention fair held at the same time!

[Kyuta] April 17, 2012 08:30

 Invited by cherry blossoms in full bloom and warm weather, I went to an event in front of Nihonbashi Plaza Building during lunch break.

 In this open space, we often hold various events such as product exhibitions all over the country, and you can enjoy it quite well.

 

 The event on this day was the "Traffic Safety Fair" at the Central Police Station.

 A car that experienced a traffic accident came and publicized the importance of seat belts.

 

 If you look around the venue, you will see the Nihonbashi Fire Station earthquake experience car on the opposite side.

 Why isn't it a traffic safety fair? When I asked him ...

 "I'm working hard together with my friends who keep the safety of the local people!"

 What a reliable word!  

 I am convinced that Chuo-ku, where many people come and go every day, is a safe and secure town.

 

 At the venue, police and fire mascots also experienced the earthquake of "seismic intensity 7" and played a major role in PR! !

 I asked each person in charge about the safety points.IMG_1111.JPG

 <Traffic accidents>

 ☆When you get in the car, don't forget your seat belt!

 ☆Pedestrians should check the safety on the left and right when crossing!

 

 <Earthquake>

 ☆In the event of an earthquake, the top priority is to protect yourself!

 ☆In preparation for an earthquake, furniture is made with fall prevention equipment.

              Let's fix it!


 

 Let's practice Chuo-ku so that it becomes a safer and more secure town.

Don't remember Akira Shunmin

Cherry blossoms in Kabuto-cho. jpg

We have reached the season of spring.

You will be enjoying this beautiful season.up  

Today we had time from the evening, so we walked from Brabra and Kakigara-cho to Kabuto-cho and Nihonbashi. The wind was quite gentle and I was able to walk comfortably.

"Ipponzakura" in front of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in Kabuto-cho also delighted pale colors.cherryblossom 

201204 Nihonbashi Nishikawa (1.jpg)Well, today's aim is [Nihonbashi Nishikawa]. As you know, this shop is a famous Omi merchant who was chosen and invited during the opening of Edo, and is a long-established store with a long history in Tokyo. In addition to the assortment, things like pride are transmitted from the behavior of the shop.


In addition to being praised with pillows, "Spring is Akebono", he remembered that he was declared in the famous Chinese poem, "I don't remember Akira Shunmin and listen to the birds singing everywhere." . What is the warmth of the morning's muddy things like these days?

On the other hand, there was no feeling of sleep and I thought, "This is a waste." I was driven a little by a desire to devour spring inertia, and visited Nishikawa in search of a good pillow for sleep.shoe

When I visited the shop, he said, "The number of people who value healthy sleep has increased recently, and more people are buying pillows and mattresses." After all, I was impressed that everyone had the same troubles and desires.

Immediately, I checked my head height and sleeping, and chose the appropriate pillow. The pillow is also very deep. I also visited the shop, but said, "If the pillow is too expensive, my neck will be tired. Also, if there is not a certain size, it will be difficult to turn over and hinder sleep. " I reflected on what I had been thinking about inexperienced work.coldsweats01 

 

Nishikawa's pillow. jpgI immediately came home with a pillow that I bought.

In the latter half of the Chinese poem mentioned earlier, there is a descent saying, "I don't know if the voice of the night rain falls." There are occasional heavy rainy days these days, so I'm a little worried that the current cherry blossoms will forever.

Such anxiety is wrapped in a dream of sleep, and I want to sleep easily from tonight. I went to bed early in hopes of having a fun dream. Good night.night

How about a new Tokyo souvenir? -"Nihonbashi Chocolat Okoshi"-Nihonbashiya

1. April 12, 2012 08:30

I suddenly went to Hakata, and I didn't have time to prepare what I thought, "What should I do with souvenirs?", I went to Haneda. Pop caught my eye at the shop near the departure gate.

I thought, "Dancing, fragrant, new revitalization" and "Okoshi?", But I tried to find it by the stylish package and lightness. There are also 5 bottles for the taste on board. The sweetness of chocolate is added to the crisp texture, and it goes perfectly with coffee that has been awake. I'm relieved that this would be okay. It has the impression of a "new generation sweets" that is slightly different from the old "Okoshi". If you look at the box, the head office address is "Nihonbashi Muromachi". I went back to Tokyo and visited the shop immediately. It's across the Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi New Building facing Chuo-dori.

Among the long-established Nihonbashi shops, there are many shops in Nihonbashi.

Founded in 2003.

In 2007, we opened a store at our current location.

It's still a young shop.


In addition to "Nihonbashi Chocolat Okoshi", there are a variety of cherry blossom sweets such as "Sakuramochi", "Ueno Night Sakura", "Nihonbashi Sakura" and "Kioizaka" that are perfect for the season. The inside of the store is also in full bloom.
