"Higashiginza Edo Gin" is open!

[Apricot peony] December 13, 2012 08:30

Among the many sushi restaurants in Tsukiji, the one who was the store manager of Edo Gin, which is famous for its history of 1924 and its good story, opened Higashiginza Edo Gin in Japanese shop curtain.


It's a bit difficult to understand, with the narrow alley behind Kabukiza, but "It's delicious with good stories and the price is reasonable. Especially lunch is amazing!" It has already gained a reputation in the neighborhood as early as possible, and even in this area where regular gourmet magazines stand in the forest, it is ridiculous.


ck1203_1212115.jpgThe highlight of the lunch is 1,000 yen for 5 meals a day-limited “fish sashimi set meal” and 10 limited “daily sashimi set meal” is 700 yen!
In addition, "Soft and melting Anakodon" 800 yen, "secluded tuna pickles bowl" 900 yen, "luxurious seafood chirashi set meal" 1000 yen, "Sushi set meal" 1000 yen.
All are with salads and miso soup, and only fresh ingredients carefully selected by the store manager with strict eyes!
Don't you think this price is good~? I'm going to say that.



On this day, of course, I was also attracted to the limited sashimi set meal, but the wife in charge of the hall said, "Our Anakodon is a soft boiled fresh anako that I caught in the morning, so I can't taste it elsewhere. It's a hokuhoku, "I decided to make Anakodon!

When you actually eat it, it feels like a light snow on your tongue, so it is well seasoned, and if there is something called "Anakodon Ranking", there is no doubt that the top prize will be won!
His wife's words were by no means exaggerated.



It is a small shop, but with the spirit of the store manager saying, "I want you to eat fresh fish," the first floor is equipped with a fish cage in addition to the counter seats.
The second floor is a private room with 4 table seats, with a stylish interior, and if you connect 2 rooms, 8 people are OK.

In the evening, the store manager puts his skills on fresh stories, added carefully selected sake, and at a reasonable price, it is perfect for meals with close friends and women's associations.

It's definitely a store that will get a reputation from now on, so if you come, it's now!

Ginza Tokimeki Bridge

[Apricot peony] 09:00 on December 9, 2012

A pedestrian crossing bridge that spans the shape of "X" at the intersection of "Hanatsubaki-dori" between Ginza 7-chome and 8-chome and Showa-dori.
It is rare outdoors, and there are escalators up and down so you can enjoy it, so I use it regularly.

ck1203_12120701.jpg  ck1203_12120702.jpg 


But the other day, I was surprised to see the plate on the Chuo-dori side.
The pedestrian bridge had a romantic name called "Ginza Tokimeki Bridge".

ck1203_12120704.jpg

Under the name, there is a monument with its origin, and at the beginning, a Japanese literary scholar Haruhiko Kindaichi said, "Tokimeki is one of the emotions that touch one, and another It means prospering in time. "
I would like to have some excerpts after that.
"In 1993, the road at Ginza 7.8-chome was renovated and" Hanatsubaki-dori "was born.
The commemorative song "Tokimeite Ginza" was recorded and sung.
This bridge, which was completed as a Showa-dori Ginza pedestrian bridge in 1997, was nicknamed "Ginza Tokimeki Bridge" after the land connected to Shimbashi and Hanayanagi world in the Edo and Meiji eras as a place for men and women to meet. A commemorative monument will be erected here. "
That's right.

In the daytime, only people who work in the surrounding office or those who come for business are passing through this pedestrian bridge, but at night, "Ginza" will show a different face than daytime, surely there will be many people crossing this pedestrian bridge with excitement.

 

 

Concert experience in Ginza

[Shitamachi Tom] 09:00 on December 7, 2012

In December, my mood is completely "year-end mode". On holidays, I think there are many opportunities to enjoy shopping for Christmas and New Year.

Chuo-ku is also a "commercial town", so there are unique shops in various places, but the biggest shopping zone is [Ginza]. It is still crowded with people who enjoy the silver bra.

 

In Ginza, what I would like to stop by now is [Communication Zone OPUS Hall] on the 8th floor of Ginza Sony Building. From last month 26th to December 22nd, we are holding an event called "Berlin Phil in Ginza". You can have a "supreme concert experience" at a theater that makes full use of Sony's proud sound equipment.

Last week, I visited you right away. In any case, Sony and the Berlin Philharmonic are closely related, so you can enjoy the sound source and video played for this event again. When you go up to the 8th floor of the Sony Building, there is an explanation on the wall, and you will once again notice the high level of this orchestra.

By the way, when you listen to music, you will be surprised by the overwhelming power. The second song is my favorite Wagner's song "Walcule's Knight", so my feelings are excited. It was a short time, but it was a time to release my heart.

Speaking of the end of the year, you will want to listen carefully to classical music and remove the year's mark. It's also a change of feeling to try it at the concert hall. But if you don't have enough time, why don't you take a look when you go to Ginza? Admission is free and you are free to enter and leave, so you can enjoy music as much time allows.

The catch phrase of the day will be fascinating again. "The sound echoes the air. "Music resonates with my heart."

Why don't you play the melody of your heart if you like it? Let's go to your reserved seat.♪
