Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog

I think many people have seen unique advertisements appearing on the wall of Sony Building (Sony Building) at the corner of Ginza Sukiyabashi intersection in Chuo-ku.

 

An example of an advertisement (click on an image to enlarge)↓

 

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
Giant 3D lotion bottle (POLA)　　　　　　"Huge sphygmomanometer" The blood pressure value is displayed in the air.

 

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
Toyota's IQ aerial dance performance　　　　Jeans aerial spot sale report

 
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
Aerial fashion show　　　　　　　　　　　　　 "Amazing Spiderman 2" decorative unveiling ceremony

 

This advertisement has a history, and in December 1957, a neon advertising tower was installed at its current location. In 1957, two years after the launch of the transistor radio, the first neon advertising sign using a bean ball at that time became a hot topic.

 

History of Sony Building:
December 1957 Sony appeared in Sukiyabashi, Ginza.
June 1959 Showroom Opened
Construction of Sony Building started in June 1964
April 1966 Sony Building Opened

 
I think it would be nice to see this advertisement when you go to Ginza for sightseeing etc.

Even though the declaration of the end of the rainy season has not yet been made, this heat, before the arrival of the full-fledged summer, it is around this time, but how about everyone? In such a case, "Ginza Kiraku", who is popular for "Saga beef original steamed steamed" and limited to eating delicious food and refreshing it. It is located on the 5th floor of the building facing Namiki-dori St. in Ginza 5-chome. The "Kiraku Ginza" store opened in September 2005 as an antenna restaurant that is not an antenna shop of "JA Saga". It's almost 10 years now, and it's become one of the shops that are completely rooted in Ginza and difficult to make reservations.

I made a reservation after a little shift, but the large store is almost full. We decided to ask for the recommended "original steamed steamed" of a friend of the eating shinbo. Depending on the meat rank, you can choose 9000 yen for "highest Saga beef", 5500 yen for "Saga beef", and 3000 yen for "domestic beef". This time, we asked for "Saga beef" 5500 yen course "Assorted appetizers-Aya of Saga", "Kiraku Seiro steamed", " freshly cooked rice and hometown pickles", "Special dessert-season Umakamon" and "Ureshino tea" is.

　

　

Assorted appetizers include cold potage of corn soup, cold Saga beef, confi, and eggplant soaking, and the main Saga beef steamed is seasonal vegetables and mushrooms spread on a 30 cm square. Saga beef is served when vegetables and vegetables are soft. The person in charge will put it in one dose at a time, and the person in charge will sort it on the plate. Two kinds of sauces, ponzu and sesame sauce, have been repeated several times, and that amazing volume of vegetables have been completely flattened. ！The next one brought is a cute size j kettle, the most difficult to cook with time, or the shiny rice grains stand. Rice "Dream no Shizuku" from Saga. My friend changed it twice, so I was happy to have a meal. The dessert is Kinako's ice cream, fruit compote and jelly, banana and mango cream brulee. It's Ureshino tea. The vessels to be offered are Fukagawa Seiki, Kakiemon Kiln, Taroemon Nakazato Kiln, and Hizen Mei Owa Paper, which I first met. Mei Owa Paper is an old-fashioned Japanese paper that began in the Genroku era, but "Kaji" is the raw material. There are many mulberry and mitsumata, but this is the first time Kaji. Because of JA's management, most of the ingredients are sent directly from Saga, agricultural products in Saga Prefecture, livestock, etc. "Saga no Umakamon", and I feel like I want to say "TEAM Saga". Also noteworthy is the good feeling of the service, the knowledge of the response, the timing of the service and the pleasant customer service after a long absence, and a friend of Kyushu Biiki said, "The service is still Kyushu." I'm proud of my hometown. How do you spend a delicious time in Ginza surpassing the heat?

■To the 2nd floor of SoftBank Ginza

Some people went to see the robot "Pepper".

 

□SoftBank Ginza is close to the Ginza 4-chome intersection along Chuo-dori.

 

□Jiro Shirato at the store.

 

□"Pepper" in the corner on the second floor.

 

□The world's first emotional recognition personal robot.

It will be released for 198,000 yen in February next year.

 

■We also participated in "Softbank World 2014" on July 15 and 16.

In the keynote speech, President Masayoshi Son presented the concept of "Equational productivity x working population = competitiveness of Japan's revival."

（１） Productivity can be raised by equipping information (e.g., job productivity can be improved by having all employees use smartphones, tablets, and clouds).

（２） If 30 million general-purpose production robots can be introduced, the working population can be equivalent to 100 million.

 

□President Masayoshi Son also had a dialogue with "Pepper".

 

■In Japan, where the working population is declining, it is necessary to change the way of thinking in order to increase competitiveness.

I think it's interesting to visit "Pepper" in the middle of the silver bra.

 

 

 

Sovalistrante Nar is located near Takaracho Station in Ginza 1-chome.

It's a soba restaurant, but it's Italian-like and fashionable.

This day was a holiday, so there was a holiday lunch.

　 

1450 yen including appetizers and tempura three kinds, mori soba and soba real ice cream and drinks!

It's really worth it.

 

　

 

　

 

It's a little far from Ginza, so it may be a hideaway shop.

If you know such a soba ya, you can be proud of it (* ^^ *)

The typhoon has returned the heat. After the rain in the evening, the feeling alone is a little cool and cool, and at a shop in Ginza where there is a waiting place. A member who has already been completed said, "What happened?" Apparently, he misunderstood that the start time was earlier. (Is it no longer a trend of Alz?) It is a "drinking party" called the "planning meeting" of the wine party. Today's centerpiece is awakening from Margo 85 and nearly 30 years of sleep, how are you feeling? Member The preservation condition on the lower curve of the residential land is also good, and the talk is even more exciting. Instead of dessert wine, today we have received "Silver Peony", which has arrived with a stylish greeting saying "I will attend on behalf of you." It has been commercialized since 2012 by the collaboration of Sukagawa Hometown Sosei Club and NPO Ginza Mitsubachi Project, and this is the third year this year. Sake rice is "the incense of dreams." "Junmai Ginjo" is said to be made from rice koji and water on white rice less than 60% of rice polishing ratio. I've heard the explanation many times, but I'm passing through my head. (There are genres that I can't remember) In a meeting with several sommeliers and wine advisors, I'm dedicated to eating and drinking.

Well, how is your evaluation?

Comments from sommelier & sake-making liquor teacher "Slightly sweet and deep umami" "There is sharpness"

Just Nommelier & Gurman's comment "... one more cup"

"Silver Peony" is located at Ginza Matsuya's B1 sake corner for 720mm 1,650 yen (excluding tax).
