Lunch at Omi Champon specialty store "Champontei Sohonke"!

[JRT Felt] March 5, 2019 12:00

It's been raining for a long time in Tokyo, where Karakara has been dry all the time.
The temperature drops and I want to eat something warm!
Would you like ramen? Well, I want to eat vegetables, thinking about my body....
While thinking, I passed in front of Ins along Sotobori-dori St. (Nishi Ginza Street), and a signboard jumped into my eyes.

Warm, can you eat vegetables and improve your girl's power? I have to try this! That's why I went straight to the shop!

This shop is a system where you buy a meal ticket at a ticket vending machine after entering the store and then arrive at your seat.
This time, I ordered a few noodles of "Vegetable Plenty Champon". It's 830 yen.

When I went to the back of the store with a meal ticket, the clerk guided me around the seat, "Please come here."
Inside the store, there seemed to be about 30 people, including counters and table seats, and there was a quite wide open feeling.

This is an Omi-chanpon specialty store that originated in Hikone, Shiga Prefecture in 1963!
I would like you to enjoy the carefully cooked golden soup and locally grown vegetables.
It is Shiga's soul food that was born from the thought of it.

I've been carrying a little to wait!
A lot of vegetables (cabbage, green onions, carrots, sprouts) and meat. I ordered less noodles, but it's enough.

20190228_121211.jpg

According to the information of the shop, the soup is based on "golden dashi", which is made by slowly boiling six kinds of fishbushi and kelp in the Ohagama in the store, and uses not only vegetables but also products from Shiga Prefecture and domestic products. is.
The specialty of the shop "Golden Dashi" is delicious with the umami of seafood!
I love eating Champon with "vinegar", and I had plenty of it this time too.
The noodles are made from whole wheat flour (wheat skin) popular among women who are sensitive to beauty and health.
It seems to be blended, and it is certainly not false on the signboard of improving women's power (laughs).

In the store, various information about Omi-chanpon and shops was posted.

I thought Champon would be suitable for men, just like ramen, but I am convinced that there were many female customers.
I want to eat noodles! But it's perfect for women who are not good at ramen.

If you want to show you around Ginza.

[Koedo Itabashi] March 4, 2019 18:00

"What's going on in Ginza now?"

"Yes, as usual, there are many inbound people.

Brands from all over the world come together, and it looks like an international city."

"I have time, but I don't go."

"Oh, now, Ginza.

Only those who know a lot of famous Ginza stores are polite.

I didn't have a chance to come for a while.'

 

The start is from the 4-chome intersection.

This is a guts point where the person who came to Tokyo renews his determination, "Okay, I'll do my best in Tokyo."

The 30-year land price announced by the NTA in July last year is 44.32 million yen per square meter of Ginza Chuo-dori. If it's a tsubo, it's just over 100 million yen.

This is the highest ever, and this location of Hatoi Domae has been the highest in Japan for 33 consecutive years.

If you line it on the floor, how many centimeters the thickness of the 10,000 yen bill will be, I think about the difficulty of paying the inheritance tax while each person.

 

Tokyo Hatoido Ginza Main Store. It's a long-established stationery store.

Refreshing fragrance of incense stick welcomes visitors.

Seasonal scent of plum and cherry blossoms, fragrance of coffee.

You can confine the scent once and take it out again.

Brushes, ink, Japanese paper crafts. I am also interested and pleased with overseas people.

"I thought it was a cookie or a sable confectionery shop." How many people were there?

 

GINZA SIX is one of the largest commercial facilities in the region, opened on April 20, 2017.

At the opening, the “Main Street” by the duet of apples and Totus Matsumoto was played gorgeously.

It's interesting to go around the shop, but let's go up to the rooftop.

Rooftop garden. While being in the middle of Ginza, a wide sky is spreading.

If you walk along the corridor, you will see the Tokyo Tower Sky Tree.

Above all, the Ginza 4-chome intersection. You can look down at the point that was up close.

Is that land un hundred million yen?

You can also visit Kakugo Inari Shrine from the Ginza Matsuzakaya period on the rooftop.

There is a good fortune as a god of fire prevention.

 

Walk along Chuo-dori toward the Ginza 7-chome intersection.

Turn right west at the corner of Shiseido Building and enter Hanatsubaki Street.

If you go along the northern sidewalk, you will find the stone pillars of Fengiwa Inari Shrine, which are likely to be overlooked.

Oh, there are many alleys where you can't see ahead.

Let's go into the alley.

There are some places where your feet are tilted, so be careful.

On the left side of the crank, a small vermilion-painted shrine hall appears.

Fengiwa Inari Shrine is located in the alley.

The dimness of the surroundings excites the atmosphere.

Kabuki's Ichikawa Hazaemon visited, and many performing arts officials came to visit.

It is a shrine that benefits from fire prevention and marriage.

Well, let's go ahead with the alley.

Oh, it's a dead end.

No, I'm going to move forward.

Let's pass through the wonder zone of Ginza, which is sometimes featured on TV.

 

This course was also popular with regulars of Ginza Shopping.

This is probably because the sense of seeing Ginza three-dimensionally leads to unexpected discoveries.

 

 

 

Daloyyo's whole cake

[Mapo ★] March 3, 2019 18:00

Two years ago, the Daroyyo Ginza main store closed.
In Ginza, I can only buy it at Mitsukoshi.
 
In December 2018, we had a birthday cake.
I tried to call Darowaiyo.

 
Speaking of Darowaiyo's whole cake, the tent insect's kokushinel is famous, but it is also famous for it.
What other hall cake is there for the people in Ginza Mitsukoshi shop?
When I asked, I heard that there was a chessboard cake.
When I checked it online, it was very cute, so I made it.
 
By the way, chessboard in French
L'echiquier Lessikie, which is the name of the cake.
 
Milk, dark and white chocolate in the shape of a chess piece is also fashionable.

It's not too sweet, and it's delicious as a cake for adults!
It's daloyyo.
Even though it is a whole cake, I am surprised at the price of 3240 yen!
 
Christmas cakes of various patissier that I book every year.
There are some things that are not so delicious for 7,000 yen.
I thought it was very expensive.

Closed sale due to moving to Ginza Tenshodo

[Silver] March 2, 2019 14:00

 The building of Tenshodo in Ginza 4-chome. On the corner, an angel with a balloon on the wings is watching something.

I was worried about why I was wearing a balloon and found a notice on the outer wall.

A notice with FINALSALE is written. Please refer to it when choosing a gift such as a watch.

 I'm going to see the railway model as soon as possible.

1550791309289.jpg

Also, if you look at the website, you can see the website.

There was a message saying, "We will relocate on March 17 due to the rebuilding of the Tenshodo Building. ..."

Please click here for the details. http://www.tenshodo.co.jp/

Looking at the company's history, it opened in 1879. It is said that Koyo Ozaki and other literary writers, who published the first edition of "Kiniro Yasha" in the Yomiuri Shimbun, also passed through. (The line of golden yasha, written by Koyo Ozaki, is blind in diamond ... It's famous.

 

 

I encountered the first day festival of Ko Inari Shrine!

[JRT Felt] March 2, 2019 12:00

As I walked around Ginza 1-chome, I saw a flag set up.
20190214_141142.jpg

On February 14th, when I thought there was something, I came across the "Hatsuno Matsuri" held at Ko Inari Shrine in Ginza 1-chome, so I will introduce it.


Hatsuma is the first noon day in February, and the first noon festival is the first day of February 711, when Inari Oga was first enshrined at Mikamine of Mt. Inari. It is a festival that prays for Oga's vast and unbearable deity.

On the day of the event, I was asked to come to chief priest from Hie-jinja Shrine to give me felicitation, so I was nervously watching Shinto ritual, which I rarely see in front of me.
After chief priest gave the congratulatory words, people who seemed to be local officials came one after another with Sakaki.


20190214_144856.jpg

The general public also asked me to come freely, and I also visited.

20190214_141551.jpg

In the cold weather, it was worth seeing until the end.
It is said that worshiping Inari Shrine at the first noon will benefit you.

When you come to Ginza 1-chome, please come and visit "Ko Inari Shrine".

~ About Ko Inari Shrine ~
The shrine has been enshrined in Ginza 1-chome since the Edo period. (1-5-13 Ginza, Chuo-ku)
enshrined deity is the god of the soul of Ukano. It is Mikogami of Susanoogami, the same god as Kura Inatama no Mikoto.
The detailed origin is unknown, but it is said that it was recommended by Fushimiinari in Kyoto and worshiped here.
In the Edo period, there was a time when it was called "Tachiuri Inari" because of the city of swords and Wakizashi.
It is also known for its benefits for marriage, thriving business, and security at home, and was rebuilt by the people living in the city after the Great Fire of the Meiji era, the Great Kanto Earthquake, and the war.

 

 

It's almost spring.

[Gin Tangeron] March 2, 2019 09:00

In Ginza Sony Park

The tropical "cycad" flourishes, giving you a warm atmosphere.

 

Underground, a puppy robot "AIBO" with a body length of about 30 cm welcomes you.

When you move in response to "sitting" and "hands", or stroking your head, you will be pleased.

I don't know how much I understand human language.

It will evolve further and reward you for healing

 

Speaking of which, it's almost spring.
