Mr. American, a dream sandwich

[Catherine] May 31, 2012 13:00

5gatu001.jpgOne day I didn't have time to eat lunch while I was traveling, I bought an egg sandwich at a convenience store and rushed into my mouth on a bench and put my cheeks.
"Ah, I want to eat egg sandwiches!"

I thought about it.
You may think you can always eat as much egg sandwiches as you like, but ordinary egg sandwiches have a rough amount of eggs.
Do you have any thoughts about such a timing?


In such a case, I happened to be a special feature of all evening news on Nippon Television.
What a huge volume of sandwiches were introduced.


The egg sand is also reflected there.
I saw it from the middle, so I only knew Ginza, but apparently I knew it was behind the Kabukiza Theater, and this would have no choice but to go.


On that day, I was late to go to the shop due to a sudden thunderstorm and it was at two o'clock.
I was worried that the shop was doing this time, but I was doing it.
The take-out sandwich has already been sold out. Anyway, when I opened the door to enter, I entered the shop.
There are only a few customers. After the peak has passed, go to the 4-person table guided.
A cushion (?) on the chair The cushions are laid all over the seats and can be relaxed.
The atmosphere gives a greater sense of expectation. I did it slowly.
Is your husband from Saga, and posters on the walls and ceilings are full of Saga Prefecture's high school baseball and Saganoka.


I don't know the closing time, but I'm not sure if it's just the day I went.
"It's until three o'clock, is that okay? And now, the beef stew is over."
(It's good in my heart, I've been aiming for egg sand today, so beef stew is again.)
It's an hour.
I ordered milk tea for the egg sandwich you want. I came here for a while!


5gatu002.jpgVolume more than you can imagine. There will be two ordinary cups of tea, too. Because it's bread, it's nice to have plenty of drinks.
Salad, corn soup, sandwich, tea

The cold drinks from the other seats were as good as they were.

I came very little in the morning for this day with very little stomach, so I first held my ends with both hands and felt how large I opened my mouth.


The eggs inside are just spilled as you can see in the picture, and eggs full of mouth! The bread is fluffy, and even the mimi is soft.
Salad is very popular again. It is straddled on the potato salad, and the potato salad contains apples and is delicious. Salad alone is enough.

On TV, a woman commented, "Eating doesn't reduce it."
I thought it wouldn't decrease even if I eat it ...
But I was licking it.
Yes, that's right. It's definitely decreasing, but it's not decreasing much because of the feeling of eating. This may have been eaten for 20 minutes.
I didn't leave much to leave, and I thought about taking out for a moment, but no, the long-awaited sandwich of American.

For the rest, peel off the top bread, eat only mimi first, or attach it to a corn soup to add bread.
I enjoyed the fluffy bread by adding the ingredients to the peeled bread, and I got the bread with plenty of the remaining ingredients in a canappe style. I did it well with a bisco like this, is it only me?

I enjoyed it deliciously.

And finished food
I was satisfied and somehow a sense of accomplishment.
It was really delicious! I'm satisfied! Your husband's spirit is wonderful. Thank you for your dinner.
It seems to be open only on weekdays (morning time: 7: 30-11: 00), is the closing time earlier?
When I went around 4 o'clock the other day, there was a sign that it closed today.


I'm thinking of finding a chance and going back again. I'm looking forward to it.

Toriya Kitamura: I will die in May

[Yotaro] May 31, 2012 08:30

IMG_0562.JPG Love is the secret of the human world, love and the later human world ...

IMG_0564.JPG
 Montaro Toruya Kitamura, a pioneer in modern Japanese literature, was born in Odawara in 1868, and moved to Shichi-cho, Yazaemon-cho, Kyobashi-ku in 1881 with his parents and brothers. My father goes to the Ministry of Finance and my mother starts a tobacco retailer. After moving into Yasuaki Elementary School, he was recognized for his outstanding talent by Principal Kazutaka Taniguchi. After graduating from the following year in 1882, he became a politician and joined the Liberal Rights Movement, but eventually left there, entered Christianity, proceeded to the path of literature, and published poems and criticisms that surprised the world. In May 1894, the premature genius ended himself in a short life of 25 years and 4 months.


 Yazaemon-cho Shichi is the current Ginza 4-3. It was a two-story building with a corner lot on the middle left from Sukiyabashi toward Owaricho intersection. (The name of Toruya comes from Sukiya Bridge.) Toruya moves many times after that, but he returns here after a while.
IMG_0555.JPGOf course, I went to Yasuaki Elementary School from here, and my marriage with Minako Ishizaka also published "Shu Prison Poetry" at my own expense. The year before his death, it was the clothesline in this house that committed suicide by piercing his throat.
Toson Shimazaki, who was impressed by Tokoya's text and had a friendship, said that he often went to play on the second floor of that tobacco shop. (Fujimura also learned from Yasuaki Elementary School, but his friendship with Tokoya began long ago in 1892 with the introduction of Yoshiharu Iwamoto.)

 At the entrance of Yasuaki Elementary School, there is a familiar monument called "Learn here at Toson Shimazaki Kitamura Toya Young Children". This seems to be the only thing in Toruya that remains in Chuo-ku.
(One snake leg. Although it is the above monument, I think that the order of name is the opposite even if you think about various things such as birth order, transfer order, literary relations, etc. ...)

IMG_0561.JPG(At the same time, one more snake foot. In Odawara, Toruya's fabric, "Kitamura Toriya Birthplace" monument (Hamacho 3-chome), "Toruya Kitamura Montaro Tomb" (Shiroyama 1-chome, Kochoji), and "Kitamura Toriya Monument" (Minamicho 2-chome, Odawara Literature Museum site. It was made by Fujimura's rush. It is engraved with Fujimura brush as "Dedicated to Kitamura Toya." ) In addition, you can see a lot of related materials at Odawara Literature Museum. If you are interested in Toruya, this is a must-see.

Nakacho Konishi Gallery is not possible for more than 20 people to enter the store at once, so it is divided into two groups, one group is Nakacho Konishi and the other group is nearby Suzuki Art Gallery (exhibition of works by famous artists such as Shiko Munakata). I decided to go.

Time-limited "Rose Garden" at FANCL Ginza Square

[TAKK...] May 29, 2012 10:00

rose1.jpg
Recently, the sun has become stronger, and it has become a sweaty season when walking around the city.


 In such a situation, a place where you can feel elegant and refreshing is open for a limited time (and free).


 On the top floor of "Fankel Ginza Square", an elegant special floor with a terrace garden that is not normally open.

There is the 5th Rose Garden this year, which is open.

I was able to relax very much with the beautiful flowers and fragrance of roses.


 In addition, there are shops, esthetics, and clinics where you can buy funkel products, so it's nice for women.


Location : 10th floor of Fankel Ginza Square 5-8-16 Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo

Period : May 24 (Thu)-31 (Thu), 2012 [11:00-18:00]

There was an organic restaurant "Mudo Samurai" in the same building.

If you have lunch here, it may be even better for beauty.

I just ate cutlet curry.......。

 

 

 

 

Hachikan Shrine

[Silver] May 24, 2012 08:30

 It is said that Hachikan Shrine has a high probability of winning lottery if you visit and pray. (I can't guarantee true or false) I've been searching many times before and finally found it.

As shown in the photo, the location is enshrined between Ginza Nikko Hotel, "Ginza Felice" and "Sushi restaurant Ukai". It's about 15m from Gallery Shingendo near Shimbashi. 

CIMG0343.jpg

According to the Kyobashi Library's holding materials and the first issue of the public relations magazine "Ginza Hachikan" (published on January 1, 1978), the history of the event was published.

"At the beginning of Genroku, Inari welcomed the divine spirit of Ogami, who was enshrined at Matsu Hirasabei's residence in castle owner, Banshu Akashi Castle, to the present 8-chome. Since then, we have continued to walk along with the history of Ginza." If you are interested, please check the details at Kyobashi Library. Let's take a look around the history of Ginza while expectheart04ing lottery winning.run

 

 

YEBIES BAR Ginza 2-chome store is recommended for beer street.

[kimitaku] May 23, 2012 08:30

 YEBIES BAR is recommended for light drinking at Ginza 2-chome.

2TYOUME.jpg Turn the carce at the Ginza 2-chome intersection and turn right at De Beers on the next gas lamp street to see Ebisu Viya Hall.


DEBIASU.jpg

At dusk, go home from work.

I was drawn to the neon of the shop and went down the staircase.

Neon EBISU YORUNO.jpg



  A lot of calm, "Welcome" voice with a smile welcomed me.
It's a very good impression.


 The inside of the store is colored with brown touch. The lighting on the ceiling is also colored with non-sticky brightness. You may be using LEDs.

 

 I'm alone, so I'll sit at the counter.

There is a golden beer server on the right side.

The clerk was handling the order of beer coming one after another, but the glass glowed beautifully in the lighting. 

 

・・... Looking at the clerk who pours beer hard, I reminded me of "Pilsen" in the Kojunsha building in the past.

bi-ru.jpgAt that time, the craftsman who sweated and poured beer was impressive, and when I talked to him, "I'm the only one." "What should I do if I stop?" What a good thing.

 ・・・ "Pilsen" was so atmosphere at the beginning of the store.   But the former "Pilsen" was also astringent and had a special taste. ・・・・・・・・

 

 I ordered an amber ale, and a baked bishop.

Even though it is crowded with customers, the voice of the clerk passes well and you can order with confidence.
The inside of the store is unified in beer color, so it's very calm.

 Beer is here.


burusuto.jpg In addition, Bisbrust, beer with a slightly sweet scent on a thirst throat is also different. It goes well with bisbrust and invites beer.
The second cup is the half & half of Amber Yale and Ebisu stout ordered an Amber x Stout.


wafuukapu.jpg

 I ordered a Japanese-style caprese,

 The cream cheese is cut, sprinkled with purple leaves, and olive oil is added to the tomatoes.

The mellowness of the cheese stood out with the faint fragrance of Shiso, and in a blink of an eye, the beer became empty.


Master Ebisu.jpgWhen I asked the clerk a lot of stories, he answered with a smile.

 Since it was just opened, he was paying attention to customer service and said that beer would be especially delicious.


  After leaving the store, the Pilsen beer master wondered what he was doing now. 

The Ebisu Beer Hall has a long history, and in 1899, it still retains the same atmosphere as before.


If you are alone with your lover and your family, we recommend a seat next to the server.
