Odaiba someday This year, another major year-end events, a winter tradition in the city, and a comic market are approaching. The last day of Comiket that year is the 31st of New Year's Eve, and this cut shows people walking toward the New Year's Eve Sunset in the western sky after closing. With the loot in their hands and the memories of the day in their hearts, the expressions and gait of the people heading home were somewhat tired, but they were also cheerful and light. There are no more Ferris cars now, and the scenery has changed a little, but you will see many happy sights again this year. Heading into the 30th, I'm currently sleep-deprived.

Odaiba someday Emerald green and champagne gold lights sparkle gorgeously at night in the city in December. The air is clear, and you can feel the silence even in the hustle and bustle. Airplanes drew bright lines in the night sky, creating a dreamy moment. The scenery has not changed in the past and now. I'm sure this weekend and tonight will bring many visitors to their dreams.

2024.11.27 On this day, the gluttonous Kawanishi went to a Japanese confectionery shop again for research!! It's the Sonogetsudo Honpo Fukushima store! But don't you guys notice something in the pictures? Look! Look!!! I'm going to Sonogetsudo, so I'm so excited that I forgot to take a picture of the exterior of the shop. Really, it's the willingness to eat, isn't it? I'm embarrassed... Next time, I'll be sure! We interviewed Mr. Katagiri, the proprietress of Sonogetsudo Honpo! From the 78th year of its founding (Showa 21), it seems that it was started with the store name before it became Sonogetsudo. At first, it was in front of Kami-suwa Station! Four years later, we expanded our store to Owada, and eight years after that, to Shimizu. Currently, we have opened this Fukushima store in the Shimizu store and 1992 (Heisei 4), and we are offering Japanese sweets at two stores in the city!! The proprietress's recommendation is the reprinted "Kojo Monaka" and "Kabuto Naka"!! I Restrooms available about 4 types during the process, and I and a lot of them. The proprietress said, "The bean paste is different at each Japanese confectionery shop, so it's interesting to find the one you like!!!" He said, "Recently, the number of foreign customers has gradually increased, and bean paste may be attracting attention because it is lower in calories than cream in Western confectionery." ◎ Sonogetsudo Honpo Fukushima store 📍 Nagano, Suwa City, Nakasu Fukushima, 5398-1 ☎ 0266-58-1547 ◎ Business hours: 9:00 ~ 19:00 ◎ Regular holiday: Shimizu and Fukushima stores, every Tuesday ◎ Sonogetsudo Honpo Shimizu 📍 1-2-12 Shimizu, Suwa City, Nagano Prefecture ☎ 0266-52-1543 ◎ Business hours: 9:00 ~ 19:00 Nov. 27th in 2024 Today I went to Engetsu-dou Hompo which is Japanese traditional sweets (Wagashi) shop in Suwa city! “Wa” means Japan. “Gashi” means sweets. So, Japanese traditional sweets call Wagashi? They have two shops in Suwa, Shimizu-machi area and Fukujima area. I went to Fukujima location. Don’t you notice about pictures??? Did you? I was focus for Wagashi… That’s why I forgot to take a picture about Engetsu-dou’s exterior… That’s big mistake! Horrible!!! I’m so sorry about that. I’m gluttony. Wagashi was right front of me, I lost from Wagashi’s temptation. So, I forgot took the shop’s exterior photo… Ms. Katagiri (landlady) introduce her shop and Wagashi. They founded in 1946. About 78 years. The shop was front of Kamisuwa station. They started with the different name of the shop. It became Engetsu-dou in 1950. Shimizu-machi branch opened in 1958. Fukujima branch opened in 1992. I asked her, “what is your recommendation Wagashi?” She told me Kojou Monaka and Kabuto Monaka. Monaka is a Japanese sweet that is bean‐jam‐filled wafers. Also, she said “You can enjoy Wagashi every season, and each shop has original sweetened red bean paste. So, you can enjoy to find your favorite shop. Now, gradually increasing foreign customers. I think they realized Wagashi is less than calories compare to cake.” ★ Engetsu-dou Hompo Fukushima branch 📍Nakasu-Fukushima, 5398-1 Suwa city, Nagano Pref. ☎ 0266-58-1547 ◎ Business hours: 9:00 ~ 19:00 ◎ Regular holiday: Shimizu and Fukushima stores, every Tuesday ★ Engetsu-dou Hompo Shimizu branch 📍Shimizu 1-2-12 Suwa city, Nagano Pref. ☎ 0266-52-1543 ◎ Business hours: 9:00 ~ 19:00
