This is rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" in a maid to order.

 

Shiseido Parlour Ginza Main Store 3F Salon de Cafe, from May 8th (Tuesday) to 27th (Sunday), 2 special menus of "Azuma Odori" will be available again this year.

 

This time, we also took care of Mr. Kotsugai, a public relations group of Shiseido Co., Ltd.

Then I would like to introduce some items.

 

"East Walk" Special Menu

Beginning in 1925 (Daisho 14), the festival of Shimbashi Hanayagikai, which conveys the essence and gorgeousness of Edo, "East Odori".

In connection with this festival, which is held every May, two sweets menus have been prepared with the elegant and stylish behavior of Shimbashi Geisha.

Shimbashi Geisha, who has been a great deal since its founding in 1902 (Meiji 35).

He said that he had a deep connection and had a break in Soda water between the geisha's shamisen lessons and the traffic.

There seems to be an episode that a shamisen storage area was created in the restaurant for geisha.

5 Follow the east 2015 (2) 2018.jpg

 A parfait 1,980 yen (tax included)

It's the season of new tea. It seems that the Japanese atmosphere of the east was expressed using Shizuoka Prefecture's matcha "the sound of fog".

Sherbet and ice cream, where you can enjoy the refreshing taste of tea, are filled with kinako bracken rice cakes, shiratama and fruits, and the texture and color are rich.

A mini-sized model of a guard umbrella reminiscent of a smart geisha rides on a plate to create an atmosphere.

Shimbashi-colored ice cream soda 2018a.jpg

 Shimbashi-colored ice cream soda 1,130 yen (tax included)

Blue-green. In the late Meiji era, a geisha from Shimbashi liked kimono of this color, and it was called "Shimbashi color" because it became popular in the world.

The color tone is expressed in blue apple-flavored syrup, lemon, and ginger ale, with Shiseido Parlour's traditional ice cream floating on it.

 

 The image is an image.

 

・・・ It is a menu only for this period, after the early summer tradition, the east of Shimbashi Hanayanagi world.

   Enjoy a Japanese parfait that colors early summer and an ice cream soda with beautiful colors.

Shiseido Parlour Ginza Main Store, low-carbohydrate omelet is available from May 1st (Tuesday) to 31st (Thursday).

Low carbohydrate omurice: 20180501-1a.jpg

Shiseido Parlour has celebrated its 90th anniversary this year since it started offering authentic Western cuisine in 1928 (Showa 3).

At the Ginza Main Store, entitled "Western Cuisine Anniversary Year", we will prepare an old-fashioned Western menu that focuses on ingredients from May and a new approach, a low-carbohydrate Western menu.

Using low-carbohydrate rice blended with barley, the ingredients are made as low-carbohydrate omurice with delicious and satisfying by reducing onions with high carbohydrate and increasing the number of Oyama chickens and mushrooms.

Manga Ritz Apork 3.jpg

 3,240 yen (tax included) “Hungarian National Treasure Manga Ritz Apoke Loose Meat Shiogama-yaki”

It features rich lean meat and high-quality fat, and the "Manga Ritz Apork", which is called the "National Treasure of Hungarian Eat", is further confined with Shiogama-yaki to make it juicy.

Please enjoy the soft and delicate taste made with traditional techniques.

What is the Geridone Service?

"Geridone" is an auxiliary table used for serving at the cooking table.

When serving food, the last finish is done beside the table, which is the "Geridone Service".

・ Carbohydrates are calculated by the Food, Raku, and Health Association.

  Calculated based on the 7th edition standard ingredients table available carbonates.

・ A separate service charge of 10% will be charged for the price.

・ The image is an image.

・ The menu contents and offer period may change depending on the availability of ingredients.

 About carbohydrates

According to Satoru Yamada, director of the Diabetes Center at Kitasato Inst. Hospital, carbohydrates are carbohydrates containing 1 g = 4 kcal energy, and the average sugar content per meal is 80 to 100 g.

The amount of carbohydrate-restricted diet, which has been medically verified, is up to 130g per day.

This is three meals a day, and if you replace it with one meal, it will be about 40g for one meal and 10g for snacks.

Therefore, the amount of carbohydrate per meal that can be enjoyed by people with diabetes and healthy people is set at 20.0g to 40.0g.

Based on this idea, we devised desserts with less than 10g. (Estimation of 40g of carbohydrates is for one rice ball)

・ Mr. Tago Nagayama, Diabetes Center Kitasato Inst. Hospital

While facing 1,300 patients every day, he also supervises a carbohydrate-restricted restaurant guide in pursuit of how quality of life can be raised in diabetes treatment, which impairs the joy of eating.

In 2013, he established the Food, Raku and Health Association, a general incorporated association, and served as Representative Director.

・・・ Enjoy the nostalgia and newness with Shiseido Parlour's delicious Western food.

   It is also a recommended menu for lunch and dinner on Mother's Day. How about?

The additive-free Tsukudani of "Tsukuda Treasure", which can be purchased only when the Kabukiza Theater is held, is delicious!

[Sakura is good] May 7, 2018 14:00

I would like to introduce my favorite Tsukudani restaurant which is sold in Kabukiza. It is "Tsukuda Treasure SHOP". Moreover, in Chuo-ku, it is usually sold only in Kabukiza. We started opening a store in Kabukiza in 1983, so it has been almost 35 years now. Among popular products, products that can only be purchased in Kabukiza are particularly attractive. Moreover, not only can you buy it when you watch Kabuki, but you can also put it inside for purchase from outside during intermission hours. However, depending on the month, intermission time varies depending on the performance. Please contact the following for details.

 "Tsukuda Treasure SHOP" Ginza 4-12-15 ☎080-3345-2940 1st floor "Kabukiza Special Street" Kabukiza business hours

"Kumatori Can" They are sold only at the Kabukiza Theater. Since the container is "Kumatori", it can be used as a Kabuki goods in a small box even after having delicious Tsukudani.

Even before the busy opening, break time, and after the closing, I was happy to respond to the clerk who handles the order with Tekipaki. It is said that there are many customers who buy many boxes as souvenirs. You can also deliver the items you purchase.

"Treasure Tsukuda" It is said that the late husband Yutaka Mizutani (received the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Prize Food Meister) of the predecessor, Hideko Mizutani, was founded in 1957. The pre-existing habit is "What customers say must be safe and secure", sticking to additive-free, and "I want people who eat from children to the elderly to be pleased." We have always followed the tastes that customers want, handmade with one hand, and continued to pursue the real taste that makes use of the ingredients. At present, the craftsmen who have taken over that will make it with all their heart.

Tokyo Metropolitan Government's “Regional Special Products Certified Food E Mark” was the first certified in the Tsukudani industry.

The most popular items are "Three kinds of sacred treasure Clams, Ami and Kombu" and "Fukima", and Kabukiza's No.1 popular products give you a sense of sweetness. There are more than 35 kinds, but my favorite is "chestnuts", which I love. Without using any additives, moderate light taste is not irresistible.

I have another recommended information. If you want to enjoy a variety of flavors little by little, you can enjoy the assortment of 5 kinds of Tsukudani "clams, fine kelp, offshore shrimp, small girls, tuna kakuni".

IMG_20180429_102236.jpg IMG_20180429_102047.jpg IMG_20180429_102028.jpg

I also visited the main store. We heard from President Hideko Mizutani.

IMG_20180429_131303.jpg

With the motto "I love people", "I take care of people", and "Employees are treasures" in my heart, I am active brightly and cheerfully every day. When you ask your age, you will be 80 years old. I'm surprised. I have been attending various meetings as well as sales activities, and have been busy every day. He also stands in the kitchen and works well, he is good at cooking, and he wants customers and employees to eat delicious foods with scrutinized ingredients that are good for the body. You can eat Takara Tsukuda's goods with peace of mind.

When I heard my dream, I was passionate about wearing a kimono with Shimada's hairstyle at the Tokyo Olympics and "hospitality" people from all over the world. At that time, I was 82 years old, but I asked you to report again two years later.

Lunch boxes sold from Monday to Saturday are popular. It will be sold from 11:00, but it will disappear in no time.

If you go by 11:30, you can buy your desired lunch.

I heard from Mr. Kazuhiro Iida, Manager of Foreign Trade Section. "In addition to the events in Chuo-ku" Tokyo Marathon and "Summer Festival", we also participate in city walking tours, so there is a chance to buy them outside Kabukiza in Chuo-ku. We also have an online shop, and I would be happy if you could visit the main store where you can come from Chuo-ku with one Harumi-dori St. " It seems that Iida was from Tsukuda, and he had a deep connection with Chuo-ku and Tsukudani.
