2016 Sony Aquarium

[Sam] 09:00 on July 20, 2016

 On July 15, the annual "Sony Aquarium" opened at the Ginza Sony Building (Ginza 5) under the supervision of the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium.

It has been held almost every year since the opening of the building in 1966 (Showa 41), and is now one of the summer features of Ginza.

Exhibition Period: From July 15 to August 28 (Outdoor aquariums can be viewed until 23:00)

The concept of this year, which marks the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Sony Building, is "Education", a synthetic word that expresses the fusion of education and entertainment (entertainment). There are hands-on events where you can learn about Okinawa's nature and creatures through aquarium displays and videos that reproduce the ecosystem of the Chura Sea of Okinawa.

Sony Square, an outdoor event space facing the Sukiyabashi intersection, will have a large aquarium of 14 tons this year, recreating the world of creatures living in the beautiful coral reef sea.

I heard that about 500 fish from 23 species, such as the pig's friend "Tamakai" and "Fake Goishi Utsubo" with a total length of 1 meter, will appear sequentially.

Feeding time twice a day (11: 30-17: 30-about 30 minutes each time), and every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday (13: 30-, 14: 30-, 15: 30-, 16: 30-, 18: 30- About 15 minutes each time), you can enjoy tank commentary by Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium staff.

It is a sense of charm of "Okinawa Churaumi" which is cool to the eyes.

Uokin Piccolo Ginza 1-chome Store Delicious restaurant in Carpaccio

[Ginzo] 18:00 on July 12, 2016

This shop was opened about three years ago, but it has been kept a lot of secret. 

If you ask if you can blog today, you can see. Ready to report. 

 The first thing I ordered was a fresh fish carpaccio and a silver standard that likes sashimi. The freshness will come out. First of all, white wine poured out by making the most of beer and surface tension. My smile spilled out.

 It's delicious! Friends are delicious too! Oh, and smile! Bon appetito !

 Today, eggplant and anchovie marinades were also delicious. The next sommelier also poured out with waves and waves. !With a spilling smile, spilling wine, full of youth, otto! Well, I got 3 cups.

WOG (without guaranty)

If you are a good friend, you can always feel comfortable in this store.

But it seems that it's crowded recently, so it's better to make a reservation.

My friends and delicious wine made the night fun again. The shop is located on the back side of Kochi, Ginza 1-chome. 

 

 

Recommended omelet rice (Higashiginza)

[Mido] 14:00 on July 12, 2016

"Omurice" of this store can be said by personal preference and discretion,

I think I'll be in the top 3 in Chuo-ku. Located near Ginza Kabukiza Theater

The name "A Vautole Sante Endo" is long and hard to remember.

The place is in an easy-to-understand place. (1 minute walk from Higashiginza)

 

Of course, there are a lot of dishes, but no matter what, I recommend this restaurant.

It's a special omelet." The price is a little high at 1300 yen, but

I won't regret it. Chicken is Oyamachi chicken, rice is new rice from Koshihikari from Uonuma.

Fresh eggs sent directly from the production area, the luxury of using 4 pieces in one dish.

Plenty of onion is very sweet and butter-rich wahowa egg

The thick tomato ketchup matches well. How the eggs are baked.

It is not a feeling, it is not hard, and it is just right to adjust softly. Simple

Therefore, I think it is a perfect form of exquisite omelet rice.

At dinner time, shrimp and scallops are added, and the scent of the sea is abundant.

You can also taste omelet rice (1680 yen).

We hope that you will drop in when you come near you.
