Sukiyabashi Park, located in Ginza 5-chome, has been beautifully renewed with the timing of Tokyu Plaza Ginza, which opened in 2016.

There is a lot of greenery, benches are well arranged, and there are many people who take a break all day long, but the Japanese dogwood in this park is still blooming and some fruits are beginning to ripen.

Japanese dogwood (Yamahoshi, mountain hat) is a deciduous Takagi of the genus Japanese dogwood subgenus. Flowers open from June to July and fruits ripen red from August to September.

What looks like white petals is not the original petals, but the total bracts (the leaves at the base of the flower) like dogwood.

The ripe fruit can be eaten as it is, and it seems to have a sweetness like mango, so it is made into fruit wine.

Next month, the maple leaves in this park will turn beautifully.

Many of the posters exhibited in the first semester were famous, such as the Tokyo 1964 Olympics, the Osaka World Exposition, and the Hiroshima Appeals, but in the second semester, the famousness is inferior to the previous year, but now it is still fresh and beautiful.

Posters such as "Sofu Teshigahara solo exhibition", "Nikkoll lens", "Nikon camera", "Yamagiwa international lighting exhibition", "UCLA Japanese classical performing arts invitation commemorative" etc.

There are many works that make full use of curves, straight lines, and graphic designs.

Some of the figures reminded me of traditional Japanese shapes and shapes, which was interesting.

"My Bakery & Café" opened in Ginza 2nd store

1. 09:00 on October 5, 2017

100_2534.JPG

The second store of "My" chain's new business format "My Bakery & Café" opened on the back of Ginza Matsuya on October 1st.

I couldn't go on the day of the opening, so I immediately looked into today on the third day. I was worried that it was a great line, but I was told, "There are all kinds now," and I was a little disappointed. For bread, "My Raw Bread" (1000 yen), "Mountain Bread" (900 yen) (including tax of 2 loaf)truffle truffle truffle is scheduled to be released from mid-October.

 

Today, I'm looking for "my raw bread" and "four kinds of cheese bread" and went to the cafe on the second floor. There is a counter and a chair seat, and it seems that nearly 40 people can enter. I'm hungry because I've shifted my lunch. We asked for "thick sliced egg sand" (680 yen) and premium cafe latte (880 yen).

100_2533.JPG 100_2532.JPG

The generous latte cup has a "my" logo. The thick-yaki egg sandwich really has a mustard on the thick-yaki egg, and "I'm done! The drink should have been made into wine, "I felt the moment I received a bite. Of course, coffee goes well. After being absorbed in for a while, the menu "Iwate Nagahora Ranch Natural Grazing Milk Soft" (500 yen) will not leave your eyes. Wow, while thinking that it's over calories! I ordered it. The glass vessels are also quite nice, and when I told the service person, "It's good," he said, "The chef was elaborately searching around here and there." The sugar was from la Perruche, so I got it without using it.

 

100_2537.JPG 100_2536.JPG

The menu is abundant, and the sandwich is "onion gratin toast" and "Kokura and butter sandwich", and the dessert is "melon bread and Nagahora soft" and "my French toast vanilla ice". I'm going to go until I win the menu I'm worried about for a while.

What is the next to the "my" chain that started with "my French" and freshly baked bread?
