Coffee shop

[Old Rose] August 26, 2015 18:00

"Lupine" on Ginza back street, which was introduced in "Ad Street Heaven" the other day.

I was told by Mr. F, the same correspondent and a senior,.

 

This time, Mr. F will introduce a coffee shop that he said, "I didn't know before."

 

I went inside Chuo-dori.

It is located on the corner of Ginza Suzuran Street and Hanatsubaki Street.

 

There is a sign in front of the store saying "Tasteing Coffee 100 yen".

 

You can choose one from two kinds of beans.

 

There are no chairs, but it's always quiet and even a moment of peace.

 

The name of the store is TORIBA.

 

There is also a biscuit.

Ginza honey pie limited to Ginza Maison ★Henri Charpantier

[Mapo ★] August 26, 2015 14:00

Henri Charpanty's cake has been introduced before.

This time, Ginza honey pie can only be purchased at Ginza Maison.

 

Speaking of Henri Charpantier, there is a head office in Ashiya.
It's a very famous cake shop in Kansai.

There was a sweet that can only be bought here in Ginza Maison.

 

Using honey collected from the Ginza Bee Project
Various sweets are made and sold.
This Ginza honey pie is also one of them.

It is a very thin pie, moisturizes rather than crispy.
And the sweetness of honey and the flavor of fermented butter
The texture of granulated sugar resonated in the mouth and it was delicious.

It's not persistent, so I can go as many cards as I can.

 

A pie carefully baked one by one in the kitchen of Ginza Maison
It was impossible for a souvenir to return home because it lasted only four days.

 

It's a souvenir when I'm here.
I think you can feel a sense!

We also introduce lemon tart limited to the main store.

Along with the fun work, the explanation is very interesting.

As expected, they speak only to storytellers in interesting words.

The work is mainly a collage created by sticking paper.

Seasonal fresh sweets limited to the Seigetsu Domoto store

[Mapo ★] August 25, 2015 14:00

 

Seigetsu-do, famous for its Otoshibun, is a long-established Japanese confectionery located in Depa underground in Tokyo.
In Ginza, it is located in Matsuya Ginza, but there is a main store with a teahouse in Ginza 7-chome.
There is also an online shop, but since we have not entered the Kansai area, we have no business.
It is often used for souvenirs and offerings of memorial services.

 

RIMG1950.JPG

 

And this time, I checked the raw sweets that can only be purchased here.

It's a product until the end of August, but all are summer-like and beautiful!
It was decided to be a yellow "sunflower" and a light blue "waterside" in white.
The pink "morning glory" is also a lost item.

 

RIMG1955.JPG

 

Sunflowers are grain bean paste and kinton, and the waterside is Koshian potato bun (Joyo Manju).
A little high-quality Japanese tea was roasted with heat.
Sunflowers are so delicate that the bean paste spills out, and moisturize them.
The skin of the potato bun is made of yam, so it's soft and fluffy.
The inside bean paste is moist and has a light taste.
Both were elegant and really delicious raw sweets.

 

It seems that autumn-like fresh sweets will come out again in September.
If my grandparents are nearby, I would like to present them on the day of respect for the elderly.

"BEER & WINE GRILL Ginza Lion Ginza 7-chome Store", which faces the intersection of Ginza Chuo-dori and Kojunsha-dori, is a grill restaurant on the second floor of "Beer Hall Lion Ginza 7-chome Store" founded in 1934 ().

The yellow sign is familiar and eye-catching.

The "Bear Hall Lion" on the first floor is the oldest existing beer hall in Japan.

The grill restaurant on the second floor also has a private room where you can enjoy beer and wine calmly while looking at the street corner of Ginza.
