Free resting place "Oasis Cafe"

[Apricot peony] August 21, 2013 09:00

This summer, rather than intense heat, it's just as intense heat.

Every day, the sun shines brightly.

Even if you say on TV or radio, "Don't go out as much as possible", this is the only thing you can do.

It is said that parasols for men are increasing sales, but I still want to take a break in the heat, but I can't just enter so much coffee shops.

 

In such a case, I would appreciate the free break space.

On the way to St. Luke International Hospital from the exit of Hatchobori at Tsukiji Station on the Hibiya Line, "Oasis Cafe" at the daily sports center is a free space that anyone can use.

At the entrance, it says, "Please use it as a free space for breaks and meetings." A vending machine is placed in a space of about 10 tsubo, and there is a smoking space in the back.

It is said that you can bring your own lunch box, but on weekdays there is a lunch box at the entrance on a daily basis.

The price is about 500 yen, which is quite reasonable.

You don't have to go to buy it.

It seems that there are many people from nearby companies who use it, and it is full at noon, but during the Bon holiday, I was able to relax slowly.

 

Even if you are going to St. Luke's International Hospital or public health center, it is a great space if you want to take a break even though it is close to the station.

 

ck1203_130820 (3). jpgYou can also see the greenery of Tsukiji River Park from the glass windows, and I hope that there will be more such a space, even though the land price is high in Chuo-ku.

 

Open time

Weekdays from 8:00 to 18:00

Saturday from 8:00 to 16:00

 

Other than the trash from the vending machine, please take it home.

On August 15th (Thursday), at Tsukiji Honganji Temple, the theme song dedication performance of the new Kabuki "Yinyoshi", which will be performed at Kabukiza Shinkai-ba, "September Hanagata Kabuki", was performed.

It was shakuhachi player Kinohachi who performed the dedication.

On the day of the event, "To the air", which was used as the theme song of "Ryoma Goes", was dedicated, and then two songs, the theme song of "Yinyoshi" and the ending theme, were dedicated.

After the dedication performance, the author, Baku Yumemakura and the starring Sogoro Ichikawa joined, and talked passionately about listening to the theme song and his enthusiasm for the new Kabuki.

By the way, the new Kabuki "Yinyoshi" seems to be sold out on the same day.

Because there was no representative organization to gather opinions from the Meiji period and domestic business and industrialists, it was extremely difficult to revise the inequality treaty. Therefore, Ito Hirobumi and Shigenobu Okuma request Eiichi Shibusawa to establish a representative organization.
