Homemade bread using natural yeast was also delicious.

FUJITAKA TOWEL GINZA - Imabari Towel long-established directly managed store OPEN―

1. June 29, 2018 12:00

It's today's heat that makes you think that the heat of the World Cup last night is continuing. The end of the rainy season seems to be still, but more than 30 degrees is hot! Imabari towels are completely branded as "Towels are Imabari", but Fujitaka Towel is a long-established store that was founded in 1919 and will be celebrating its 100th anniversary next year. June 20 We opened the first directly managed store in Ginza. Immediately after entering the traffic light at Ginza 6-chome, it is a street shop close to GINZASIX. The very stylish shop, made from 100 years old wood from North Europe, is lined with calm-colored towels lined up in cases made of the same old wood. Everyone seems to want it! Today, I've got two gym towels. Do you think it looks like senior when you put it on your shoulders? There are various types, from high-quality ones pursuing suppleness to everyday use (house towels) claiming to be the "ultimate basic towels" received this time. I put it in a very nice box, so it's gone for myself. I wonder if it's a perfect gift.

With the permission of the manager, I took a picture of the inside of the store. It's a nice atmosphere for everyone.

Kiki Ginza store porridge delicious Hong Kong cuisine tea is also delicious.

[Silver] June 29, 2018 09:00

Today, I entered a Chinese restaurant called "Kiki" on the 2nd floor of the Nishi Ginza Building on Ginza 6-3-11 on Kojunsha Street.

We were able to order those who like white rice or porridge for the set meal. The rice and rice porridge were free.

The menu of lunch set ¥980 (tax included) is available.

1.With char siew and boiled chicken ginger sauce

2.Four dishes such as fried X O sauce of beef

 This shop is said to have a head office in Hong Kong. The taste of XO soy sauce is not too thick, but elegant, and I loved it. The tea after meal is elegant frozen oolong tea. Even delicious tea alone is worth visiting. I pledged to return to the kind clerk's reception. It's a double circle.

GINZA SIX Rooftop Garden

[Nyan,] June 26, 2018 18:00

 What would you recommend for sightseeing in Kyoto? If asked, there are too many highlights that have been elaborated from various perspectives, and I don't think it's possible to narrow down to one. Meanwhile, a major push for me is the "Kyoto Round Trail".
It seems that the range is too wide and it is not squeezed at all, but this Kyoto round trail is a route that connects the low mountains from Fushimimoyama in the southeast of Kyoto to Mt. Hiei, Ohara, Kurama, Takao, Arashiyama, and Kokedera, and overlooks the city of Kyoto.
(I personally think that I can't say that I'm familiar with Kyoto without going around here.)
 
The problem is that there is a total length of about 83.3 km, so it is not a straight line, but if you are a physical strength group, you can go around in one day (if you have tight physical strength and time, you can descend from the mountain to the city immediately. It can be turned several times). The signposts in various places are quite kind so that you don't get lost.
The first entrance to the east side of the Kyoto round trail is that Kyoto Fushimi Taisha Shrine. It wasn't the case before, but now it's quite popular with foreigners.
kitune.jpg
"Kakugo Inari Shrine" was enshrined in 1815, recommended by Kyoto Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine.
(Of course, there are many other shrines recommended by Kyoto Fushimi Inari Taisha.)
It is said that it worships the statue of Daimyojin in Toyokawainari brought by a white fox in Negishi, and it is said that during the Great Kanto Earthquake, it protected the town from a large fire from the Nippori area.
It is now situated on the roof of GINZA SIX, which has been redeveloped.

The other day, after running at the Imperial Palace, I stopped by. Since GINZA SIX has been redeveloped by integrating the two blocks, the rooftop is quite spacious. It is the largest rooftop garden in the Ginza area, and 2,200m2, or 56% of the area of 4,000m2, is a green space.
In the morning hours, there are few people and you can enjoy the trees that change their expression quietly in each season.

This rooftop garden may be good to take a break when you are tired of shopping or tired of walking.
