See Tsukiji Wonderland (TSUKIJI WONDERLAND)

[Chuo Kotaro] October 20, 2016 09:00

ck1509_20161049.jpgIt's called "Tsukiji Wonderland."

(For those who love Chuo-ku, can't you miss it?)
I've been watching a movie, so I'd like to report it.

 

This time, in addition to the photos on the poster, I'm not sure.

It's just a sentence.

 
It was released in advance in the East Drama from October 1, but from October 15 it will be released nationwide.
Also, overseas film festivals (multiple) have been held.

It's going to be exhibited.
 

○Overview

The Tokyo Metropolitan Wholesale Market Tsukiji Market itself consists of the Fruit and Vegetables Department and the Fisheries Department, but the movie is a documentary focusing on the Fisheries Department.

However, the video is very beautiful, and the appearance of the people who come out in their daily lives in a natural manner is the way they come out.
It was like a powerful drama.
Through the movie, I was able to realize what the "Tsukiji brand" or the world "TSUKIIJI" means, and why it becomes a brand.

 

○Highlights of the movie

・If you dare to mention the main character, is it "the wholesalers"?

The professional figure as a connoisseur is vividly depicted. Tsukiji attracts a large amount of fish (seafood) from all over the world every day. Even the same fish have a different face every day.
Their role is to buy such fish from wholesale through auction, process them appropriately, and sell them to professional cooks and people who come to Tsukiji to buy them.
There is also an advanced connoisseur power to instantly determine the quality of fish, and an advanced technique that processes without losing quality.

For those who come to Tsukiji to buy foodstuffs, wholesalers are indispensable.
In the movie, such wholesalers and wholesalers (the side that brings ingredients to Tsukiji), or the human relationship between wholesalers and buyers is clearly depicted.

For example, culinary professionals such as Rosaburo Dojo, a culinary iron man, and chefs at famous Michelin-listed restaurants and long-established restaurants also visit Tsukiji to consult with wholesalers about ingredients.
Here, chefs trust wholesalers, and wholesalers try to answer their trust, and a business based on Tsukiji's unique trust has been completed.
This trust business is a tradition cultivated over the 80-year history of Tsukiji, and it is the biggest factor that brings Tsukiji to TSUKIJI, and is depicted as an attraction.

・In terms of food culture, architectural value, history, etc.

There are comments from prominent people, so you can understand the Tsukiji market from various perspectives.

・Then, I wrote a story about a cooking professional consulting with a wholesaler.

You can also enjoy beautiful images of how to cook the purchased ingredients after buying them.
You can also see the shops that appear with the feeling of "Oh, that shop".
To give names only to stores in Chuo-ku, Rokusantei (Ginza), Koju (Ginza), and
ESQUISSE (Eskis: Ginza), Sukiyabashi Jiro (Ginza),
Kizushi (Kizushi: Ningyocho) comes out (everywhere is a famous shop).
(Of course, there are famous shops other than Chuo-ku. By the way.

 

○What will happen from the perspective of a correspondent?

・I think this film is very important in terms of recording the culture of Tsukiji.

Isn't it recommended for those who want to enjoy gourmet food in Tokyo (especially Chuo-ku) where delicious food is gathered?
When you eat at a restaurant, you may be worried about the production area and brand, but there you will be more conscious of the word "Tsukiji brand", and I feel that eating will be even more fun.

・It feels like "Sister Edition" or "After Tsukiji Wonderland" after relocation.

I personally see that there is something that covers the outside and Tsukiji 3-chome / 6-chome / 7-chome / Akashicho (Is it called Ura Tsukiji?)
For correspondents, Tsukiji Wonderland = inside the venue + outside the venue + (Tsukiji 3-chome / 6-chome / 7-chome / Akashicho).

 

 

Achieved 28 stores! -Antenna shop stamp rally

1. October 19, 2016 16:00

100_2130.JPG

I did it! I came to the 28th store "Aomori Special Products Center" last yesterday and achieved it. When I talked to the sales floor, I was more and more happy to say, "Congratulations." When I got the "stamp rally Guide", I noticed that there were quite a few shops I had never visited, and I thought, "This is bad," so it's a good opportunity, so I'm aiming for "all stores." There are many new stores on the first floor of a new building on the main street, and it seems that there are not only merchandise sales but also fashionable cafes and restaurants, but it seems that the current trend is that there are "fixed customers" in long-established classes such as Kumamotokan in the 22nd year, shops in the 23rd year, and Aomori Prefecture in the 27th year, from conversation with clerks. It's the "face" of Chuo-ku. Many of the products I found for the first time, I just bought them, and as a result of achieving 28 stores, my house has a unique appearance of a "national souvenir market". I would like to introduce some of them.

If you think about it, Chuo-ku was a cluster of products nationwide during the Edo period. The largest number of antenna shops nationwide in Chuo-ku is "I wonder if I will do it!" Oh, yes. I'm looking forward to next year. I hope you win the present too.

Pork Jerky "Michinko" Ginza 

[Cotton] October 16, 2016 14:00

"BEE CHRNG HIANG" is a restaurant that sells popular pork jerky in Singapore. On September 22, we opened on Ginza 5-chome Suzuran Street.

In addition to Singapore, we have already opened stores in nine countries, mainly in Southeast Asia, but it seems that Ginza is the only one that has stores in Japan.

Barbecue-flavored jerky called BAKKWA (Backa: meaning "dried meat" in Fujian), which is sold at Bichin incense, changes the image of dried meat so far.

After smoked pork peach, it is said that it is charcoal grilled. The sweet and moist texture and seasoning have a juicy and nostalgic taste like a mirin-dried grilled over charcoal fire rather than jerky, and it is a later seasoning.

There are two types of flavors: sweet barbecue and spicy chili flavor. In addition, minced with a soft texture. Golden coin that is easy to eat and is cut round. There are a total of 5 types, such as gourmet bakuwa using rose meat.

The 8th generation Shikan Nakamura showcased the name of the festival October Daikabuki

100_2115.JPG100_2117.JPG

The Kabukiza Theater, which has been performing on the 2nd with four sons of Hashinosuke and three sons.

Due to the clear autumn weather after a long absence, it is a seat with a lot of fine clothes. The curtain for the celebration of the attack is also clear. It seems to be Kashiwa Sato's design, and according to Shiban's interview article, the design changes every month. It's a luxurious performance, but it's a "rock name performance". In the evening part, when Matsu Midori's "Gairo sale" is over, it is a "mouth" of a series of executives. The stage art on the mouth is Professor Takafumi Asakura of Japanese painting, which also changes monthly. Mr. Kikugoro, who said that Fujijuro, Yoshiemon, Tozora, Tamasaburo, Kikugoro and the living national treasures were lined up, and that the audience was heated with a humorous mouth on the first day. While being angry ... ", the audience was laughing. "Kumagaya Jinya", which is performed in an unusual "Shiban-type", is an impressive scene where Naomi, who usually became a home, leaves the flower path outside the curtain, but this time there is no production. It is said that it will be performed in this type in this attack performance. The last is Tamasaburo's "Fujimusume". The curtain opens while the lighting is turned off, and the production that suddenly becomes brighter in the hall is always surprised by the gorgeousness. Please take a look at the stage with luxurious castings unique to the attack performance. The afternoon part is Shichinosuke's grandson, the grandson of the predecessor Shiban, "Women's temporary", "Floating Roost Ogu", and "Hatazu Chobei".

I'm looking forward to seeing the name goods during the intermission, but this time, the contents of the "name commemorative candy" are black candy from Eitaro Sohonho.
