[Mapo ★] October 31, 2014 09:00

A sushi restaurant that moved from the former Toshiba Building in Sukiyabashi to Ginza Trecious.

It is a long-established store for 50 years.

 

There was a very good lunch and shore for lunch, so I did it.

 

2160 yen for leaflets, nigiri, red soup, chawanmushi and ice cream!

Moreover, it is delicious (*^^*)

It's nice to have this set on Saturday (*^^ *)

The inside of the store was full of customers.

Chuo-ku Town Walking Tour ★Visiting Ginza Gallery

[Mapo ★] October 15, 2014 09:00

On October 7th, we went around the town walk tour Ginza Gallery.

There are 10 participants.

Meet in front of the clock tower at Sukiyabashi Park and go around the Yanagi Gallery, Nichido Gallery, and Shinminedo Gallery.

 

At first, Yanagi Gallery.

 

There are a few words from the president who left me very much.

I can't buy art museums, but I can buy art galleries.
Aside from buying or not, what if you buy a picture in this?
If you could get one of them?
It's fun to look at the picture while thinking like that.

 

garo1.jpg RIMG1689x.JPG

 

Among Yanagi Gallery, I like Hiroshi Okano's paintings very much.
The color is beautiful, and there are some things that can be bought.
"Decorating this picture of this size in that place in the living room."
I thought it was very fun, and I really wanted a picture (laughs).

I received a pamphlet (upper right)

 

I was doing a Dali exhibition at the Nichido Gallery.
It seems to be the 110th anniversary of Dali's birth.
It's not a picture, so it's hard to carry artworks.
I was able to hear stories such as the story behind Dali.

They also sell postcards and notepads of famous painters.
I received big postcards from Dali and Monet, where the next event is written.

There is a permanent exhibition in the basement, and there are many pictures hanging.
The painter who thought this person's picture was good checks the name!

garo3.jpg RIMG1692x.JPG

 

The last is Shiminedo.
I had plenty of time, so I explained the pictures one by one.

Knowing the background and story of the picture
It's interesting because the attachment is born in the picture and the perspective changes.

 

By the way, Mr. Shiminedo's painting doesn't have a price tag.
When asked why, many people look at the name and price when looking at the picture, and then see the picture.
He seems to have not put a price tag because he wants to see the picture without prejudice of the amount.

 

By the way, I heard the amount of money and said, "I'm going to do that much."
If you think, that picture is your favorite picture.
If you think, "Eh, isn't it so expensive?" (laughs)

 

The gallery in Ginza seems to have a high threshold.
Today, I felt like I could go to the gallery more easily.

It seems that going around the gallery in Ginza will be a habit.

Chuo-ku new discovery! Report on participation in "Town Walking Tour"

[Silver] 14:00 on October 9, 2014

 

  The Chuo-ku Tourism Association has been conducting since July, "Chuo-ku New Discovery! Do you know the "town walk tour"?
 
On August 28, I applied for an industrial course to visit long-established stores, shops and famous places.
We visited  three long-established stores founded in the Edo period, a long-established Japanese confectionery shop "Eitaro Sohonho", a lacquerware specialty store "Kuroeya", and a laver shop "Yamamoto-noriten", which developed seasoned seaweed.
At the first visit, "Eitarou Sohonho" was held.

20140828 014.JPG
I heard about the invention of Amana sugar and Kintsuba.

20140828 018.JPG

In addition, we heard stories such as "Sado's red cobblestone at the villa of the Koza Goto family" at the entrance.

20140828 016.JPG
I bought Kintsuba as a souvenir. 
On this website, you can see the story of Eitaro candy and gold brim. http://www.eitaro.com/
 
The show window at Kuroeya's storefront where I visited was decorated with giboshi in Nihonbashi, which was used during the Edo period.

20140828 010.JPG
Here, from high-quality lacquerware, our original chopsticks, Nihonbashi, is sold.

20140828 026.JPG
I purchased a business card holder with red Fuji, the thirty-six views of Mount Fuji in Katsushika Hokusai. http://www.kuroeya.com/
 
At the last visit, "Yamamoto-noriten", seaweed is collected when the plum blossoms bloom, so the circle was used as a ume company emblem, or the wall of the design of the laver spores.

20140828 037.JPG
Since the company's history and Yoko Yamamoto's TV commercials have been long-term, the Guinness Book of Records has been certified.

20140828 032.JPG

We heard a very interesting story about the ceiling expressing the frame of a boat that collects seaweed in the store's construction.

20140828 039.JPG20140828 036.JPG
It was a seaweed tasting, and we tasted the canned seaweeds designed by our granddaughter Kitty-chan, but it is a seasoning that adults can also enjoy. I bought two cans.

 The "Town Walking Tour" seems to be still being accepted. I recommend a fun walk around the town.

Halloween sweets ★Under the depa in Ginza

[Mapo ★] October 8, 2014 14:00

At this time, there are a lot of cute Halloween sweets.

I would like to introduce about two things that I particularly like (*^^*)

  

The Desale Te corner on the second basement floor of Ginza Mitsukoshi is located.

This is a booth that proposes a mariage of tea and sweets.

  

For sweets, the world's top patissier announces monthly limited sweets.★

This Jack Oran Tan cake is Lyon's patissier Sebastian Buoyer.

Patissier is characterized by cute and fun designs such as lipstick and record-shaped chocolate.

The white chocolate mousse and the cookies on the table are all delicious.♪

It's 1080 yen per piece.

 

The other is the Katsura Shindo shrimp cracker in the basement of Ginza Matsuya.

Every month, shrimp crackers with seasonal patterns are sold and I'm looking forward to it.

At this time, besides Halloween, there is also a mountain play in the autumn newsletter.

The smallest series costs 216 yen per bag, so I always buy 2 bags (*^^*)

 

Halloween1.JPG

 

In addition, at Katsura Shindo, you can get one stamp for each shopping.

When it's full, you can get sweet shrimp or red shrimp aburiyaki, or small plates and chopstick rests.♪

 

In October, there are a lot of delicious Western and Japanese sweets.
