Shokado in Kappo cuisine Nakajima-a long-established lunch

1. September 29, 2011 17:00

I found a glossy Akebi (Kidori) at a nearby supermarket. Did you sneak up to the next side in autumn without noticing in the harsh summer heat? It is the beginning of the last week of September, when autumn is dark. 。 What happened to be "something delicious" when it cools down?


I visited Mr. Nakajima from Ginza today. "Kappo cuisine Nakajima" is a long-established store that was founded in 1931 for 80 years, and is known as the first chef of the Lushan Jin Hoshigaoka Tea Dormitory (the founder of the Lushan Jin no Hoshigaoka Tea Dormitory) and is now the third generation.

This "Shokado" is a place where Nakajima can easily enjoy it.
3,150 yen is worth a price with seasonal Shokado Zen with sashimi, soup and dessert. Today, I went through a private room and enjoyed a relaxing and late lunch. Chrysanthemum is the one in the bowl of Yuba and Kyoimo, the combination of okura, and the pot of pots. I'm sorry to get it in a jewelry box that seems to be trapped in the season. It's a luxurious time that satisfies the sight and taste at the same time. The dessert is babaroa with figs and white miso.

It is recommended when you are thinking of a little elegant lunch in Ginza. When I was an employee. I remember that I was pleased when I introduced a female customer.



A stone monument that attracts your eyes at the entrance of the shop says "Yoze ..." (from now on Kannon Michi). I heard that it was originally on the Mt. Koya-san pilgrimage route. Why don't you take a step in meeting the taste of dishes that make use of fresh ingredients?

Special Bincho charcoal shop ★Ginza palm (Tanagoro)

[Mapo ★] September 27, 2011 12:49

It's a Bincho charcoal shop called Tanagoro, which was listed on Ginza 100 points and I've been worried about for a long time.

 

Speaking of Bincho charcoal, it is only familiar with yakitori and eel.
I've never used charcoal itself.
I often hear about the effect of Bincho charcoal, but where should I buy it?
How to use ... I just checked it on the homepage because I didn't know.

Various kinds of charcoal are sold.
There is a sense of security that if it is a specialty store in Ginza somehow, there is no doubt!

By the way, this shop has a bar in the basement, a shop on the second floor, and a tea room on the third floor.
I was wondering if it would be new because it was a very beautiful shop.
It seems to be the world's first Bincho charcoal shop opened in 1999.

 

The inside of the shop is displayed very stylishly.
There are also weighing and tongs in the corner of the selling by weight, but it is somewhat fashionable (laughs).

He explained the efficacy and how to use it carefully.
I'm a beginner in Bincho charcoal, so I take a bath or cook rice (* ^^ *).
On this day, I bought a 50g Bincho charcoal (262 yen) for rice.

Some of the most interesting products are madlers and chopstick rests.
These Bincho charcoal straps are also fashionable for gifts.

Regarding the effect of Bincho charcoal, charcoal is calcium, iron, magnesium, etc.
It seems that minerals are condensed in a form that is easy to dissolve in water.
It also has a deodorizing effect and a thermal effect.


There are a lot of Bincho charcoal objects in the shop.
The interior of the store is completely odorless, and you can feel a very purified space.
People are healed by a bit of a good scent, but
It was surprising that odorless is so comfortable!

Bincho charcoal seems to be the home of Kishu, because it was sold by Bicchu Yachozaemon (Bicho).
There are also three other Bincho charcoals from Kochi and Miyazaki, all of which have the Kuroshio Current.
It's a glimpse of the greatness of nature.

 

The palm Bincho charcoal is charcoal from Minabe, Kishu.
This town is famous for producing Bincho charcoal and plums.
I showed you the log of sea turtle oak before it became charcoal, but it seems that this is 2 or 30 years.

When I visited the second time, the manager told me a good story about Bincho charcoal.
I heard a lot, and I took a lot of pictures and photos.
I was willing to cooperate with the interview, and I received such souvenirs!

This is a fragrance-free soap made with medicinal charcoal called Charcoal Bar.
I feel like it absorbs sebum and the skin becomes "smooth"~♪
This is Bincho charcoal, a little bigger than rice. It might be nice to decorate it.

 

I'm completely Bincho charcoal lover (*^^*)
You can also order it at the web shop!

 

Next time, the volume of "China Tea in the Tea Room on the 3rd floor" is the volume of "Chinese Tea".★

Ginza is already preparing for Christmas

[illy-ship Sun Ichiro] September 21, 2011 08:48

The flowers on the side of the road in Ginza have been replanted. There is a lot of cute cyclamen at the intersection of 4th Street. It's time to prepare for kurismouth!
I'm sorry. jpg
 

 

Relaxing place for bookstores-Ginza Kyobunkan-CAFE Kyobunkan

1. September 18, 2011 08:30

Internet bookstores are booming these days, but once a week we look at bookstores. Today we go to Ginza Kyobunkan. It's one of my favorite bookstores.
Kyobunkan is a publisher and bookstore of Christianity-related books founded in 1885. The current building is a building with an atmosphere in Ginza, which has a classic feeling that was designed by Antonin Raymond in 1933.


First, find a hot spring guide to travel at the magazine section on the 1st floor, and then go to the Japanese book section on the 2nd floor. Next to the new book, the "Now is Kuniko Mukoda" fair is being held. (Thirty years after his death) There is also a corner on the theme of seasonal current affairs, and I feel again that the bookstore is a space that shows the "condensed present (now)". It's one of the things you don't have in online bookstores. It's fun to look around the bookstore's shelf, so time has passed before I notice it. My legs and eyes are tired and I want to take a break. This cafe is perfect for such a break. To the counter seat by the window overlooking Ginza Street. Blend (480 yen) and cake (240 yen). While wrapped in the scent of coffee (the coffee here is ground after listening to the order) It is a time of blissful relaxation that you can see without reading the book you bought, turning around Ginza Street or seeing cars.


100_0227.JPG 100_0221.JPG



Considering the good location, it's strange that I've never met full. Coffee is delicious and the price is very conscientious in terms of location, and the clerk is calm and the atmosphere is good. It's a secret place.

It is recommended not only for reading the book you bought, but also for small meetings and meetings. (I don't want it to be too crowded, so I don't want it to be too famous.)

Skin care lessons at a salon in Noevia ★Angelix Mile Ginza

[Mapo ★] September 15, 2011 11:15

I happened to find it online, but there was a salon in Noevia in Ginza.
Angelix Mile!
The naming can be cute (*^^*)

 

There was also a trial facial beauty treatment "Plull skin experience plan 3675 yen", but it was also called "Plull skin experience plan 3675 yen".
There are three lesson courses, and I did that.

Actually, I've never been to make-up or skin care training.
(It was my first time that I went to a false eyelash lesson the other day.)
Because it's my own tenetho makeup (laughs)
I applied for a skin care lesson because I wanted to teach you well on this occasion.


First of all, it's a skin diagnosis. This machine is amazing.
I've been doing Kimechecking many times before, but I've never been able to do it.
Fineness of texture, uniformity of texture, dullness, stains, horny layer, oil, moisture, elasticity, skin temperature
I understand everything!

And the cosmetics used for today's lesson will be arranged in front.
It's a whitening series because you're worried about stains by playing golf.
Today's charge is Mr. T, a beautiful Akita!
He was very kind and polite.

 

 

 


First of all, cleansing.
Carefully wipe your eyes with a makeup remover.
Wipe the whole with cleansing massage cream.
In addition, cleansing lotion gently wipes off.
I can have the staff do it so far.

And I was taught how to massage.
You have to do it as a sample once, and then practice yourself many times.
This is the first time I have learned such a proper massage procedure.
You can do it yourself! I thought it.

 


Next is the face washing. First, Mr. T will make the foam with a sample.
First, make a lot of bubbles with your palms, then remove the air, and then
Makes the corners of the whip stand out.
I was very praised for being very successful and having a good hand (* ^^ *)

 

 

 

 

These bubbles are extremely rich and creamy, and the fragrance is also refreshing and good.
And if you wash it with this foam, your hands won't touch the skin at all.
This facial cleansing form was the most impressive today!

 

After that, I applied skin lotion, milky lotion, and cream.

I don't really like cream.
It was not sticky, it was a refreshing cream!

 

After that, Noevia cosmetics are carried more and more in front of the mirror.
Base, foundation, control color, eye shadow,
Lipstick, teak, eyeliner, mascara, etc.
There were also disposable chips and lip brushes.
It wasn't cheap, so it felt wasteful (^^;

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have a one-on-one lesson.
If you are worried about it, please ask a question!
I was told that I would practice it thoroughly,
It was nearly 3 hours, and it was amazing 2,100 yen.

 

It seems that this 2,100 yen is the cost of teaching materials, and the first makeup remover used.
I'm glad I didn't have this.
It seems that all services are available (@_@)
There is no such priceless lesson in Ginza!

 

Well, for the first skin diagnosis, the staff will look at this first and give you various advices.
The corner I was worried about was quite good points, and the tension and moisture were good.
Surprisingly, there is not enough oil, the texture is well prepared but rough, and the horny layer is thin (^^;

 

 

 

 

I've learned a lot from talking with the staff.
It seems to be caused by my face washing.

Since it doesn't get slimy after washing your face, you can wash your face many times.
It's rubbing until it makes a sound.
This makes the horny layer thin and the texture is well-organized but rough.

I would be happy if you could get something like a communication book with such a radar chart!


The first floor of Namiki-dori St. is the 7th floor of Chanel's building.

There are also makeup and fit color lessons, as well as group lessons.

 

 

 

 

Just to the left of the entrance, you can find products from three brands: Noevia, Simp's, and excel.
It seems that you can try and buy it freely.

There is also a system where you can receive facial esthetics at the point where you buy cosmetics.

Next time, I would like to go to a makeup lesson!

There are many salons in Noevia nationwide.★

 

 

 

Mid-Autumn Moon

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] September 13, 2011 09:15

old calendar has long been customary to appreciate the moon on August 15, but this year, September 12 was August 15 in old calendar.happy01



Basho at night around famous moons and ponds



From the Chuo-ku side, Mr. Basho would have seen the moon from Fukagawa Basho-an (Koto-ku) on the other side of the Sumida River. By the way, this pond seems to be an old pond where Kawazu (frog) jumped in.


On the other hand, last night, more than 300 years after this famous phrase was born, the mid-autumn moon was illuminated as Akira Akira among the brand buildings in Ginza, where daytime heat still remains.
