A little, handmade publicity. I've heard it in newspapers or on TV news.

The story of a doll called "Manmaru-san". It's a very good story. The doll obtained something similar to his granddaughter in the form of a donation. It's cute. I recommend it to everyone.

At the bottom of the doll, the edges are tied with red thread. We are also connected to the people of Tohoku.

I found a website about the details of "Manmaru-san". Please read it.

Magazan de Phrase, a strawberry snack specialty store from Kyoto

[Catherine] April 29, 2012 08:30

A strawberry sweets specialty store in Kyoto opened in Ginza, so I like strawberries.
I went right away.

003.JPGI'm attracted to it just because it's a strawberry sweets specialty store~
Especially women like strawberries.
It's a bright red, sweet and sour, cute fruit, and I don't think it's the only one who gets it if you have a small strawberry pattern.


It just opened in Ginza 6-chome in February 2012.

Magazan de phrase

A signboard with a color that resembles strawberry milk on a white door. There are also accessories shops around them, so when I passed in front, I thought it was an accessory shop.
When I opened the door of such a wonderful shop, I was honestly surprised at the small size of the shop. It's 4 tsubo.

I purchased it on this day.



Strawberry omelet (¥315)


Matcha macaron (¥315)


Strawberry and butterfly macaron cake (¥651)


Matcha macaron has a taste of matcha, and macaron cake has a refreshing citron cream.

Strawberry omelet reminded me of a nostalgic Western confectionery shop with a firm sponge and cream.

To take it to a friend's presentation for the second time

presentI bought some baked goods.

(I chose it by the shop.)

 

It was sold out when I came before

There was a strawberry sakura mochi, so I bought it and went home.


Simple but cute sweets like a picture book, a little price ...

That's the case.

If your wallet permits you, strawberry jam, baked goods, ramune, etc.
I wanted to taste it little by little.

Lunch buffet in Singapore Seafood Republic

1. April 27, 2012 08:30

It's been a long time since it was called an ethnic boom. Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, and other Southeast Asian cuisines, Africa, Brazil, Central and South America cuisines are so popular that it is difficult to choose. I think it's completely established. Many people may get sick of spices such as fragrant vegetables and lemongrass and spices such as namplers, gnokumam, peppers and coconut milk.


I was one of them, and today I came to Singapore seafood republic Ginza store, a Singapore food.

The one who introduced me was a friend who was a representative in Singapore, recommends that you can enjoy the atmosphere and taste of Singapore when you enter the store. This is a store that four famous Singapore stores jointly opened in Japan four years ago. I came last year at night, but at that time I heard that "I also have a buffet at lunch", but I didn't have a chance.

100_0498.JPGIt is located on the 11th floor of Yurakucho Marronnier Gate.

The interior of the store is a clean, casual interior that is unified with white and has a high ceiling and an open space.

There is a buffet table in the center, and there are plenty of salad bars, Singapore Asian cuisine, rice menu, Asian noodle, and daily desserts.

A foreign couple stands out in the customer. The atmosphere is also like Singapore.


The noodle bar is made on the spot if you choose something like a stall. On this day, Laxa Noodle (spicy Sudle of Coconut soup) and Pork Noodle are staple food in Singapore. I ordered two kinds of half quantity. There are also a lot of familiar food stalls such as stewed tofu, fried bamisen and peargoren. I'm going to put various desserts for the photo and finally taste it! (Reflection)

"East Japan Reconstruction Support Project from Ginza" Ginza TS Building

[Silver] April 26, 2012 08:30

I've heard about "East Japan Reconstruction Support Project from Ginza", but I didn't know that it is located in the same building as "Komon marche" and is working as such a big project.new

I got a leaflet saying "Eat, buy and watch in Ginza and support East Japan!" Looking at the contents, Tokyu Land Co., Ltd. is a series of support activities conducted at the East Japan Reconstruction Support Plaza on the 1st and 2nd floors of the TS Building in Ginza, and as a place to continue supporting the reconstruction of Tohoku from Ginza, Tokyo in October 2011. It is said that it opened in The theme of the reconstruction support plaza is two, the first is "In Tokyo, we sell special products of Tohoku, and support Tohoku in terms of product sales and distribution." The second is "a place for information dissemination."

 Here on the 1st and 2nd floors of the TS Building in Ginza, everyone "eat, buy, and watch" leads to "dispel reputational damage and negative image", and the money "return properly!" It's about connecting to the local people. I was quite impressed by the silver.

This activity includes 1. Ginza Ikinari Market, 2. Ginza Connected Cafeteria, 3. Nippon Agricultural Market, 4. Komon marche-Ibaraki Farm, 5.Cafe Ibaraki Rose, 6.NEVER FORGET Tohoku, 7. Ginza Hirogae stage (exhibition and event space). Activities will continue until August 2012. Why don't you go to the next consecutive holiday and see it? Usually, Monday is a regular holiday, and here for more information. http://www.ginza-fukkou.jp/
