In this series, two times before, the model of the restaurant "Matsuya" of Chapter 2 "Ryotei Kozo", Ningyocho Kikuya, and last time Ubukeya appeared in Chapter 3 "Setomonoya's bride" as a knife shop "Kisaya". I introduced you.
This time, Nigyocho Kusakaya, a rice cracker shop in amazake Yokocho, Ningyocho.
The owner, Junmichi Ishikawa (Yoshimichi), and his daughter, Masumi Ouchida, were taken care of.
As I introduced three years ago, Keigo Higashino's novel and TV drama "Newcomer" eight years ago, the novel and movie "Kirin no Tsubasa" and "When the Prayer curtain descends" It is famous as a model location.
It is an indispensable shop when talking about the so-called "newcomer series".
First, in the novel "Newcomer", it appeared as a rice cracker "Amara" in Chapter 1 "Daughter of a rice cracker".
In the movie "Newcomer", Anko played the role of daughter, Etsuko Ichihara played the role of grandma, and Takashi Kobayashi played the role of the owner of the shop.
The setting is that Hiroshi Abe, the leading role, "Kyoichiro Kaga", visits there.
It's a very important start part in novels and movies.
First of all, I would like to introduce it from the shop's products and rice crackers. All prices are tax-included.
Hand-baked rice crackers

It's that hand-baked rice cracker that also appeared in "newcomers".
Mikisuke Katsura, the third generation, liked this hand-baked rice cracker.
Therefore, he seemed to have kept it in a safe so that his disciple could not eat it.
Also, when the 17th Kanzaburo Nakamura was young, he said that this hand-baked rice cracker was "scorched more."
That is the origin of the rice cracker of "Okoge".
Even now, according to the manufacturing method at the time of its founding, Mr. Ishikawa, the owner, bakes hand-baked rice crackers with all his heart.
It's a freshly baked rice cracker.
Take home some other rice crackers that have not been dried yet, and have a second rosmary job lipo corps, tasting.

550 yen for 5 pieces
I don't have it today.
It is a limited product with plenty of soy sauce accidentally soaked in hand-baked rice crackers.
It is said that the soy sauce soaked in the hole when the rice cracker swells becomes like soy sauce that accumulates only there and is salty.
It's not something that can be aimed at.
Therefore, even if you can buy it, it is a rare item up to one bag per person.

The right is Toyoko Ishikawa and the left is Masumi Ouchida, my daughter.
Well, here is an interview with Masumi.
ーThis article was published three years ago and a half years ago.
Three years ago, there were many tourists visiting locations from Taiwan due to the TV drama "Newcomer" broadcast in Taiwan.
Also, a year and a half ago, there was a filming of the movie "When the Prayer Curtains Fall".
After that, what about location tours and visit tours?
Taiwanese people are still in their own way.
People from Europe and the United States are touring with a guide.
Depending on that time, there are 4 or 5 people, 10 and many groups come.
Especially when it comes to the cherry blossom season, the green path right there is a secret spot for cherry blossoms, so we are in conjunction with that.
And there are cherry blossoms in Hamacho too.
The movie "When the Prayer Curtains Fall" was a road show in Japan last January, but in Taiwan it was released six months later.
Waiting for the holidays, Taiwanese people can come.
There are still many people in Taiwan. Thank you very much.
ーHow about actors, TV dramas, and filmmakers?
(He served as an insurance researcher for TV dramas and movies) Teruyuki Kagawa, then came to greet him on the stage of Kabuki.
At the time of shooting the movie "When the Prayer Curtains Down", Kyo and Kagawa were in this store, Hiroshi Abe passed in front of the open front door, and Kyo stopped it. It was a scene.
But what I shot when the movie "When the Prayer Curtains Fall" was played on the terrestrial wave in July was almost cut, and everyone in this neighborhood was quite angry.
Still, it's luxurious.
I'm really happy and thank you for using it in the movie.
Even if you come out, you will come here. It's effective.
Everyone, you look closely. You've come out (on TV and movies).
There was no scene at home, but Junpei Mizobata came after that.
It was around the time when he was on the stage of "Makaitensho" in Meijiza.
Katsunari Mano, the scriptwriter of "Newcomer", has been here since then.
He is a popular scriptwriter who has become very famous now and also writes TV drama "Aibo".
He's coming a little bit.
ー Etsuko Ichihara, who was filmed here as grandma, died in January this year.
In TBS's report when he died, a shooting scene of a "newcomer" at home was flowing.
Isn't it just a voice saying "Japan is a long time ago"? It's another station.
"I saw the housekeeper" is famous, but this is also another station.
That's why it was an image taken by TBS.
・・Thank you very much, Mr. Masumi.
