Finally, let me know. The patrol bus goes around a route where public transportation such as the metropolitan bus does not pass much, so it is a chance to discover a new Chuo-ku from the train window. In addition, a correspondent of the Chuo-ku Tourism Association will guide you on the bus, so you may be able to hear special tourist information. 。 。

Please look forward to it!

Feel your hometown at an antenna shop

[Silver] 19:00 on October 19, 2015

 "I'm going to listen to it in the crowds of the station with an accent of my hometown."

 

 This song is famous because Takuboku Ishikawa wrote it, but recently there have been many antenna shops in Tokyo, and in conversations at each store, I can hear nostalgic dialects and feel smiling.

Recently, at the storefront in Kochi, "Oh, it's been a long time! For the first time in 15 years. I also heard conversations like ".

Also, at Nihonbashi Fukushimakan MIDETTE, we were able to hear fun information from elderly female customers next to each other, such as "The announcer of the commercial TV station is the daughter of sake brewing."

 Among the people who visit antenna shops in each prefecture, not only people in Tokyo, but also people in Tokyo.

Many people come out in search of their hometown dialects and tastes they are accustomed to since childhood.

As I walked while thinking about such things, I encountered a cheerful "Urikamome-san" at the intersection of Ginza 2-chome on Sotobori-dori St.

I heard that I had a friend I met at the antenna shop and enjoyed shopping and stamp rally again this year.

A tour of the antenna shop will make you healthy both physically and mentally. Let's continue to enjoy it. Silver

 

 

Ramen shop where you can line up @ Hatchobori 2-chome-Nanasai-

[Nojinya] October 11, 2015 09:00

On the way home from work, I walked along Yaesu Street as usual, and a new ramen shop was opened. I didn't pay much attention at first because it was a place where Chinese and Korean izakaya, which had not been very prosperous until now, but there was a large line in front of the store. There is a white line on the sidewalk (to line up), and I thought I had to try it once, but it was always crowded and hard to enter.

On Thursday in the valley of Silver Week in September, I went to dinner a little early at 18:00 during the rain and was lucky enough to enter without line. (The photo is already in line because it's finished eating.)shichisai1.jpg

The place is Hatchobori 2-chome. It is about a 5-minute walk from Hatchobori Station on the Hibiya Line, but as soon as you get off the covered bus stop "Yaesu-dori Higashi Bus Stop" (/archive / 2015/08/post-2618.html) of the Edo bus introduced on the blog earlier It is right in front of you.

The name of the shop is "Noodles and Shichisai". It seems that the shop opened in Hatchobori in July of this year, but until May of this year it was a popular shop (from April 2011) that was open on Ramen Street under Tokyo Station.

This is the first time, so I will order the basic "Kitakata Ramen (Niboshi)". There are 13 counter seats in the bright store. While waiting for ramen to be made, the vacant seats were filled up, and the waiting chairs were filled up behind them were filled. For about 15 minutes to wait from the order, there is a reason to wait, and at this shop, the noodles made in the kitchen are boiled on the spot. I don't get tired because the polite process of mixing flour, tapping and stretching, cutting with a kitchen knife, rubbing and boiling with a hand looks good even if you sit at the counter. shichisai2.jpgThe T-shirts worn by the staff are printed with characters such as Yama Roch Soy Sauce (Shodoshima) and Yugeta Soy Sauce (Sakado City). On the mouth of the shop, "Ramen is a dish to eat" noodles "tasty. 。 。 。 I will draw out the charm of the material simply and honestly. Listen to each of the ingredients and listen to their voices. To create a delicious cup of soy sauce ramen. And thank many producers. "I value the materials (= producers), see their commitment to handmade, and their expectations increase.

In the meantime, Kitakata (Niboshi) ramen came out. There is a limit to explaining in words, so please take a look at the photo first. shichisai3.jpgThe noodles were just hand-made and had a lot of sticky feeling, and the boiled-boiled soup was like a consomme soup and it was delicious without stickiness.shichisai4.jpg

Somehow it's going behind. This seemed to be a popular secret. I arrived home with a happy and happy feeling this evening.

The story of Kayabacho Past and Present

[I want to see] 16:00 on October 4, 2015

Exit 8 of Kayabacho and go to the ground of a certain hall.

 

In the cab of the hall facing the street, there is a MAP of Kayabacho Konjaku.

One corner of the alley is Sanno Hie-jinja Shrine (auxiliary shrine) and the other.

The residence at the corner is Chisen-in, which is famous for its "near Yakushido hall in Minami Kayabacho".

The corner is Enomoto (later Takarai), a poet from the Edo period, whose representative works is "Echigo-ya Kinusaku sound and clothing (Koromogae)". There is also a stone monument of the site (died here).

 

By the way, what is the first MAP?

"I see! It means Kayabacho Konjaku MAP.

  

Old maps and current maps are arranged, and you can literally compare the present and the past, see changes after the Great Kanto Earthquake and subsequent changes, reconstruction after the war, and the bustle of Kayabacho.

 

Once you've finished reading this, let's go one step from the automatic door to the hall.

On the left cover, there is a watercolor painting of 100 views of Nihonbashi Kayaba-cho, and you can be healed just by looking at it.

 

And another place, there is a place (bank) that displays this hundred views!

Walk along the intersection of Kayabacho toward Hatchobori, and if you see the drugstore on the right side, it is the bank next to it.

It is also on display in this lobby to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the branch.

However, unfortunately, this is a bank, so you can only see it during business hours on business days.

However, there are places nearby selling postcards and Pochi bags for this watercolor painting.

(The types of watercolors include the Daiichi National Bank of Meiji period, the Tokyo Stock Exchange around 1945, and the Nisshokan.)

 

When I walk around Kayabacho, there are various discoveries.

Be sure to take a walk

 

 

The antenna shop stamp rally has begun. Until October fifteenth.

[Silver] 12:00 on October 2, 2015

 The 10th antenna shop stamp rally in Chuo-ku has started.

Until October 15, 26 shops are waiting for you with specialty products.

I started shopping and stamp rally, starting with "I brought Hakodate" at the corner of Kyobashi 2-chome.

It's open 24 hours a day, so you can always buy Hakodate's specialty products.

 The second store is "Iwate Ginga Plaza".

I bought famous confectionery's "Kamome no Egg", "Southern Senbei", and "Maitake Mushroom Gome Rice Field" in Iwate Prefecture.

The most popular product here is "Iwachiku Kiro Drop Shoulder Bacon". It's cheap.

But it was sold out because it was too cheap.

And the label "Products eligible for 3 discounts by grant" stands out.

And there was a very delicious lunch made with Sanriku seafood. I'll keep this for the next time.

At the third store, Gunma-chan's house, we have a fresh "fig" from Gunma Prefecture.

1443692014691.jpg

 

I bought "Gunma-chan Journey Garasu", a candy with cream inside, which is very similar to goful. There is also a discount of 150 yen for 2 pieces.

1443691998508.jpg

 

 Here, the sticker of "Products eligible for 3 discounts by grant" is also noticeable. It's the aim of shopping.

Well, I'm really grateful to be able to buy specialty products from all over the country while staying in Tokyo.

Next time, let's enjoy shopping around Nihonbashi with other Ginza shops this weekend.

Everyone, please enjoy the antenna shop stamp rally.
