Lunch at sushi restaurant Ishihara ★Ginza Restaurant Week 2015

[Mapo ★] May 18, 2015 14:00

The second restaurant week of this year is a sushi lunch!

A restaurant called Ishihara, a sushi restaurant located in Ginza 7-chome.
It seems that the landlady is young and has Kyoto dialect, and Mr. Maiko comes to the shop.

 

I arrived about 10 minutes earlier and passed through the back parlor and came out of tea.

It was hot, so I made it iced.

The parlor is also very beautiful, and the shop was opened three years ago.

I didn't have a glass wine, so I drank plum wine rock.

Protruding mozuku, kohada, bonito,
Somehow, flounder, chawanmushi, sardine, horse mackerel, pickled tuna,
Kombu of Rei Hoshika, squid, red soup, leek, kanpyo roll,
congridae salt, sauce, matcha ice cream.

Pickles of Chinese cabbage come out and water eggplant of Senshu come out.
It's something like a chopstick rest on the way, something that vegetables ... I've eaten several times,
There is something like a tuna inside ...

In addition, from the landlady to the present of Nakatoro!

With this much content, 3240 yen is truly Restaurant Week (* ^^ *)

Even if it's restaurant week, it's impossible.

 

And I don't know how much sweet shrimp is in season.

It seems that they always purchase seasonal products, near seas, natural products, etc.

 

All of them were delicious, but I guess it's flounder (* ^^ *)
Even with the same glow, Kohada feels more delicate than horse mackerel.

 

It was a sushi restaurant that I wanted to visit again.♪

Daikabuki begins in May of Dangiku Festival

1. May 13, 2015 14:00

It seems that there are many people who work in earnest from today after the GW is over, and the city seems to have returned to the usual situation.

On a sunny evening in May, I went to Kabukiza Theater.

100_1762.JPG100_1763.JPG

The Dangiku Festival has begun. The evening section is from "Keiyasu Taiheiki" to "Chuya Marubashi", Kabuki 18th "Snayanagi", and "Kami Akie Wago Initiative" (megumi's fight).

As you all know, the Dangiku Festival is held in honor of the achievements of the fifth generation Kikugoro and the ninth generation Danjuro, and has been held every May since it revived in 1977. An elderly woman who was photographed in front of the two statues in the first floor lobby of Kabukiza Theater, said, "I'd better be in front of Kikugoro," and it's pretty cute to see each other.

100_1764.JPG100_1765.JPG

I was checking while listening to the name line of Mr. Matsu Midori of Chuya Marubashi, "Sango here, Kashiko Gogo ...", but the numbers do not match! The appearance of being surrounded by the way of catching using the doorboard is also amazing. Ryuishi Matsu Midori, young. "Janeyanagi" is said to have been premiered by Danjuro, the fourth generation of Kabuki 18th, but it is a performance that is rarely performed in Kabuki 18th. This is the first performance in Kabukiza since Ebizo revived in a voluntary performance two years ago. The last "Megumi's fight" is familiar, but it is a spectacular word that each of the 40 Tobi and sumo wrestlers rampage narrowly. The large rise of jumping on the roof without a ladder or turning the dragonfly from the roof is harassed. This is the fun of Kabuki. There is no doubt that it will be shy.

In the intermission, I found a new product only in May. I always asked, "Do you have anything this month?", So I told me, "Yes." It's "Ooka in the middle of making it." It is a product in connection with the lunch performance "Ooka Masadan", but this confectionery shop is located where the Ooka family residence in Akasaka was located. It seems to be "handmade" because it is a type that puts bean paste on the skin when you have it. 3 pieces are 650 yenya. Since lunch is the last week, I decided to have it first.

Danjuro has died, but it is a gorgeous, lively and luxurious stage performed by the Ichikawa family Ichimon Sogo and Otowaya Ichimon Sogo. It is also recommended for those who are watching Kabuki for the first time because it is easy to understand.

Ginza Restaurant Week ★Ginza jaggiolo

[Mapo ★] May 13, 2015 09:00

Ginza Restaurant Week was held again this year.

The first thing I went to was an Italian restaurant called Ginza Jagjoro.

It's located in B1 of Duplex Ginza Tower on 7th Street.

 

Of Santa Maria Novella, the world's oldest pharmacy in Florence
It is a ristorante based on the idea of natural healing and preventive medicine.
                        Excerpt from Jagjoro HP

 
You can eat lunch at Ginza Restaurant Week for 3240 yen (including tax).

4 dishes of appetizer, pasta, main and dessert

The appetizer is a herb salad of 15 items, which is also a signboard menu of Jagjoro.
There was one topping for free from 4 types, so I chose salmon.

I don't like herbs very much because it's so much.
It was hard to eat up (laughs).
But it's very kind to the body.

 
And the pasta is "You can choose two types of pasta if you share it with everyone."

I went there, so I made the cherry shrimp Arioriorioo and homemade potato gnocchi.
I'm glad I could eat two kinds little by little.

 

KIMG0230.JPG KIMG0233.JPG

 

And the main one is the roast of mochi pork
It was literally delicious as mochi (*^^*)

Dolce was hot on this day, so I made it gelato.
Chocolate and pistatio★

The drink was served as a cafe latte and it was a very satisfying lunch.

 

KIMG0234.JPG KIMG0235.JPG

 

Actually, my original Koshu wine was on this day.
It was at the peak of drinking, so I brought it in. (3,000 yen carry-on fee)

It goes well with fish, but it goes well with pork.
It was a refreshing Italian, so it was perfect for every dish.

By the way, Santa Maria Novela is also located in Ginza.
I'm going to see you soon.

The 9th Ginza willow Festival

[Many Books] May 6, 2015 18:00

On May 5th, the "9th Ginza Yanagi Festival" was held, and the weather was fine, so I went to see it with my wife.

The first is a traffic safety parade. There was also a brass band at Nihonbashi Junior High School.

From 2:00 pm, saplings of "Ginza willow" were presented at Ginza 8-chome and came lined up. I'm raising it now according to the manual.

Nishi Ginza-dori (Sotobori-dori St.) was a pedestrian paradise, and various events were held to delight many customers.

At the concert forest at Sukiyabashi Park, the Hachioji High School brass band was performing. Many audiences were listening to the performance here too.

It was a little tired but fun day.

 

 

There is a 9th Ginza Yanagi Festival report song, dance, and come next year!

 On May 5, 2015, the 9th Ginza willow Festival was held under pleasant weather with fragrant winds. The willows in Ginza were also swaying in the breeze.

The greetings of the organizers and guests were a great success, with a lot of customers coming and hearing only their voices.

Fortunately, I was able to shoot the beautiful works of the 33rd Chuo-ku Tourism Ambassador who helped with tape cutting.

Next is the "Traffic Safety Ginza Golden Parade" by the Metropolitan Police Department and the Tokyo Metropolitan Brass Band Federation.

Marching to match the light music of brass band and baton twirler. The sisters of Shimbashi geisha also walk gracefully and add flowers.

From Chuo-ku, members of the Chuo-ku Nihonbashi Junior High School brass band participated.

They are also performing cheering performances at the Tokyo Marathon.

The sister and wife who went with me said, "I'm fine."


The marronnier gate tree was blooming. The flowers were likely to be appreciated until around May 10th.

Sukiyabashi Park was the "Concert Forest", where songs in Le Miserable's play and songs by Momoiro Clover Z were played.

(Here, the battery of the digital camera has run out! Blue! I can't help but shoot with galaxy.

 I moved to Ginza 6-chome and was fascinated by the gorgeous dance of "Shimbashi Geisha Higashi Odori" that I wanted.

"The beauty of Edo, the beauty of Japan. The 91st Higashi Odori is Shimbashi Enbujo for four days from May 21 to 24.

 I want to see a real dance at Shimbashi Enbujo! I thought it.

Next, at Ginza 8-chome, this event will be held for the first time, "Welcome Ginza".

As for the performance schedule, "Kappare" and "Ginza Ondo" were performed by Sakuragawa-ryu Edogei Kappore.

Visitors from abroad also jumped in and seemed to be very happy. 

P1001108.JPG


Next, "Ginza Koji" was sung by singer Hiroko Matsumae, and Ginza became the stage of the song show.

Five songs were also shown, and the Sakuragawa-ryu Edogei Kappore were excited.

P1001115.JPG

 I would like to introduce the lyrics of "Ginza Koji" and a little touch.

 The eaves are low but stylish shops are lined up in Kinharu alley ... 

It's very easy to sing, and I'm going to sing with a humming from tomorrow. I'm going to be shy!

 After that, we enjoyed Heven Artist in Ginza, Hometown Tourism PR Campaign, and traditional dances by "Marugoto Kochi". I'm looking forward to next year's 10th meeting.
