Focus on collaboration products
The first thing I noticed was a collaboration gourmet planned on the theme of "connecting and connecting" for the "Dai Chuo-ku Exhibition".

Ginza Bakery G Stick, which is also certified as a souvenir recommended by Chuo-ku, collaborates with the long-established bonito shop "Ninben" in Nihonbashi, "G stick shaved powder" (731 yen), is limited to 60 pieces each day. G sticks, which is familiar with "Ginvis" and "Eatko Animals", are sold only at one Ginza bakery store, are snacks characterized by crisp texture and lightness. G sticks with plenty of garlic shavings give you a strong sense of the rich flavor of bonito. The lingering finish of the umami of the dashi that remains after eating is wonderful! In the G stick series, I may like this most. Good not only as snack but also for beer tidbits.

I'm also worried about the collaboration bread of the popular butter roll specialty store "PARKER HOUSE BUTTERROLL" in Kayabacho and the salmon specialty store "Showa Food" in Tsukiji, "Super dry salmon and seaweed butter roll" (351 yen). It's amazing to come up with a unique combination of bread and seafood. I'm surprised to eat it! The delicious thing of butter rolls with salmon! The butter roll of PARKER HOUSE spreads the rich taste and aroma of butter to the full mouth from the moment it is contained in the mouth, but the flavor of butter and salmon match very well. The salmon used is "super dry" and the salt is effective, but the strong salty taste, butter and seaweed match well, and it plays a wonderful harmony. This is an original product that was completely developed only for the "Dai Chuo-ku Exhibition" and can only be purchased at the venue. It will be sold out immediately, so it is recommended that you visit early.

Surprised by the sweetness of fat, Iberico pork bacon and procured ham from Spain sent directly to Spain.

From Tsukishima Spanish Club, a restaurant where you can taste authentic Spanish cuisine, which celebrated its 30th anniversary last year, sausages and bacon made from Iberico pork sent directly from Spain at your own factory are available! This product is limited to events that are not usually sold at restaurants. There is also a take-out of side dishes that can be eaten immediately.

Iberico pork bacon, sausage, and a seafood paella. Thank you for putting chopsticks, spoons, and towels. We had lunch at "Nihonbashi Garden" on the roof of the main building on the upper floor of the venue. What surprised me was the bacon of Iberico pork. The sweetness of the fat that melts in the mouth! It was so delicious that the concept of bacon that I had eaten so far changed. The paella that firmly inhales the umami of seafood is also exquisite, and this set where you can eat various things is a great deal.

And speaking of Iberico pork, after all, "raw ham". At the "Dai Chuo-ku Exhibition", fresh hams cut at the sales floor are sold. The finest raw ham bejota sent directly from Spain was still different. The taste of meat is deep! Each time you bite it, the strong taste of meat is softened. It's hard to get so rich raw ham, so it's good to buy it! It's great when combined with a well-bubble Spanish sparkling wine "Cava".

The folding umbrella of Komiya Shoten, who fell in love with the skill of a craftsman

Chuo-ku was the center of commerce in the Edo period. There are still many craft shops that inherit tradition in the city. In addition, attracted by such history and traditional land, new craftsmen who come here support Chuo-ku as a city of "manufacturing". At the Dai-Chuo-ku Exhibition, there are many shops specializing in crafts such as tabi, broom, and chopsticks. Even long-established stores that usually feel a high threshold can be easily visited at the "Dai Chuo-ku Exhibition" with an open atmosphere. If you have any products you care about, please ask the store for the explanation. At first glance, even if something looks simple, I am surprised at the commitment and craftsmanship that is included in it.

The author met a folding umbrella at Komiya Shoten, a Western umbrella specialty store in Higashinihombashi. Using traditional Yamanashi textiles as fabric, I fell in love with the elegant beauty of this umbrella handmade by craftsmen.

When I heard the explanation, I found that the fabric fabric was not made from a cloth, but from a wonderful technique. In addition to the beauty of the appearance, it is also a UV-processed umbrella, it is folded, but it can be used like a long umbrella without folding every time during use, and it does not get wet due to rain drop when riding a train etc. It also has functionality, such as having a bag so that it does not get wet, and it looks easy to use. Today's summer, parasols are becoming a necessity. I wanted a wonderful folding umbrella that can also be used as a rainy weather. "Edo's style" is to wear good items casually. It starts at 20,000 yen per one, but I want to make it a gift for myself.

There is a chance to get sushi from a longing famous restaurant!

Kubei, a famous sushi restaurant in Ginza, has long been longing for a long time to visit once. At the "Dai Chuo-ku Exhibition", a limited quantity of Kubei's rose leaflets, thick rolls (3780 yen each) and Anako stick sushi (2700 yen) will be sold from 12:00 each day. You can purchase only M-I Card Plus members, but those who do not have a card can also make a temporary card on the spot. It's a chance to enjoy the taste of famous stores!

"Dai Chuo-ku Exhibition" is a collection of many "things that can only be purchased in Chuo-ku". Touching the wonderful taste and skill, I thought, "I was really happy to be born to a Japanese"! The exhibition will be held for 6 days. By all means, please go out.
