DSCN0498 (2). JPGI would like to introduce the Akashicho Riverside Park.

 

It is located along the Sumida River on the east side of St. Luke Garden.

 

There are no playground equipment, there is a lot of greenery and Yoshino cherry tree. It's perfect for cherry blossom viewing. There is also a convenience store nearby.

 

On the left, you can see Reversitate's high-rise apartments. It's also ideal for sketch points.

 

Why don't you go a little while shopping at Tsukiji Fish Bank?

It's very beautiful.

 

 

Tsukishima, Tsukuda, Tsukiji Walking Tour, a fusion of culture and gourmet

[Silver] April 2, 2017 16:00

 Today, we have been introducing Tsukuda from Tsukishima Station on the Yurakucho Line, the town of history and culture "Akashicho", and the treasure trove of food "Tsukiji".

We visited Monja shops in Nishinaka-dori shopping street, melon bread rusk, rice cracker shops, etc., and visited Tsukishima Kannon. 

Unfortunately, it was around 10 o'clock, so the shop wasn't open yet. A foreign model visited a gravure magazine for men and photographed landscapes enjoying a walk in Tsukishima.

 I'm going to Tsukuda. Visit the local museum, Ishikawajima Lighthouse, and visit Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine. After that, customers who buy Tsukudani as souvenirs.

There is a question, "Which is the main family or the original?"

 In response to these questions, he answered, "Because food is a luxury item."

Cross the Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge, see the monument of the birthplace of Aoyama Gakuin University, etc., and enter "Japan's No. 1 Manjusho Shiose".

From the customer, "Oh, there was a shop here! I didn't know! "And so on, and immediately purchased souvenirs. 

The history and culture of St. Luke's Tower, around St. Luke's International University, such as the ruins of the U.S. Embassy, the beginning of Dutch studies, the dismantling Shinsho, the ruins of Takumi Asanouchi's residence, and the birthplace of Ryunosuke Akutagawa, I was very pleased to guide you to the famous store in Tsukiji, a lunch place.

 

 

Grill Ginza 70 Years History of Switzerland Introduction of Tsukiji store with the culinary turn of the Emperor

[Silver] April 1, 2017 14:00

 The restaurant of "Grill Ginza Switzerland" has a restaurant in Tsukiji in addition to Ginza Gaslight Street. The appearance of the shop is Swiss-style.

 Formerly, the big star of the Yomiuri Giant Army, Shigeru Chiba, said, "Please put a cutlet on curry" and the famous cutlet curry was born, but it is very famous.

If you learn about this history and eat French a la carte, your assumptions will blow away. Croquettes are small, but very delicious, and it's a dish that you want to order in a la carte.

Next, the description of "Hotei" where the founder worked with the person who was called "the emperor's cook".

After such a process, the son of founder Shinnosuke Okada, Yoshito Okada, trained at the Imperial Hotel, and opened in Grill Switzerland in Ginza 7-chome in 1947.

In 1948, a former Yomiuri Giant Army Oster Shigeru Chiba said, "Please put a cutlet on curry" that the famous cutlet curry was born.

 At this Tsukiji store, there is a Happy Hour service just before the dusk approaches.

Let's introduce a part of the menu with a signboard.

And today I'm alone, so I received a "Dinner Drinking Set ¥980".

The croquette is French. (I was originally born in France, but ...)

 The second floor is just the right size for about 25 people to have a party. It is an atmosphere where you can enjoy Dinner quietly.

 We recommend that you use it at a welcome party for new employees in the future. A pleasant chef and a handsome sommelier will respond carefully.
