Chocol'Art

For those who have not yet had the opportunity to discover Midtown, here is a show that you will perhaps change their minds.

Indeed, from 27 April to 29 July (AC goes, you have time ...) 21_21 Design opens its doors ... Chocolate!

After the celebration of laughter at the Mori Tower, the endorphins seem to be decidedly has the honor Tokyo has this time, the exhibition thus Chocolate - led by Naoto Fukasawa, or how we do consider the companion of our cafes in a new light.

"It's about seeing The World Through Chocolate -together": this is the enticing program which, through installations, videos, sculptures related to the small black square, you should not let your hunger (how AC it was easy?).

Anyway, here is a nice way to thumb its nose at Spring regimes advocated by our favorite mags, even though nothing suggests that there is a tasting scheduled before the exit (thankfully, Midtown has some good chocolate ...).

A note for those whom nothing escaped, you've probably seen a few fashion chocolate products of Issey Miyake were already available around the site and of course, has the Pleats Please store in Midtown.

All information in English are here.

With my first experience of " guinea pig for English classes in disguise", I decided to take my second course in Japanese cooking ABC this time it.

Deja, I make a parenthesis to say that, exactly the same way I do not care who believes that my man is a chain Seven Eleven Japan, I sincerely thought that ABC was just cooking this in Tokyo.

Luckily my friends are bloggers and pastry chef to open my eyes and let me point out that the same string exists in Paris. So here I am

on track for a second round.

culinary point of view alone, we made a bread pudding with coffee / chocolate, which my faith was very good at breakfast the next. The above, nothing to say (the photo is my bread, yes ma'am ").

The problem is that, even at Midtown, ABC cooking remains the "Nova de cuisine": understanding, you will interact with people you servront of teammates and expect the best and the worst.

So, I know, I was already on my previous eral neighboring course, a little too sociable to my taste but I withdraw everything I said ... I was altogether a good time last time.

This time. I got stuck with companions that I had a furnace strictly nothing to say (two women in the home of a respectable age clucking like a high school student their first evening ...) and I can say that the bread in need of full-time cooking, this was a great moment of loneliness than being three around a huge white table for two and a half hours.

Fortunately, we had the teacher who followed in addition to training cook for a training for "sales force" advanced level: it never stopped us submit all of their packages (and their fantastic discounts) calling every two minutes, "Miss then, how it's done, when you start? "or" then it is decided, you sign up? "

After twenty minutes, my neighbors had cracks and signs of bread for 36 over (?) Has taken over two years, I wanted to invent good outings toilets every 5 minutes to complain to my half awaiting me at home.

short, a second course frankly disappointing, but I have no doubt that if you come up with a girlfriend (which I should have done), or you come across people with similar interests as you, it must be much nicer.

However, be prepared to endure brainwashing on the merits of ABC cooking.

And push the readers who ask me the recipe for Matcha Chiffon Cake, I can not reproduce it on the site but in contrast, has never kill anyone to spend a recipe by mail ... I'll just have to copy the!

How Long After Waxing Can You Fake Tan

Cooking classes in Midtown Midtown

The first time anyone passes a center cooking ABC (and god know they pulullent in Tokyo), he can not, I believe, help being surprised: it looks like an aquarium armored girls apron.

To be honest, I would never thought the land until a colleague, whom I confided my desire to learn to make beautiful cakes (not that a cake with yoghurt or its variant fudge ) does not give me the address of Site Cordon Bleu me warmly recommending their courses.

At current prices (half-day, of course), I think it is more profitable to rob carrement Pierre Herme Aoki-san said ... especially for beginners like me in this matter.

So I sought repeatedly courses that are more suited to my level / or I would not obliged to register for the quarter or the year and pay 200.000 yen entry fee, and Gradually, I found myself penetrate into the tank of cooking ABC International Midtown.

Do not ask me how it was done, my mind has already forgotten.

Still, I was there, in the presence of a box that says I am registered for the course of Monday, 20 hours, which requires me to go with: my deck (easy, we m 'has offered a 6 years ago ... most Japanese), a towel (so far so good) ... and slippers ... (but fortunately, there is a Muji by side or you can buy these the critters).

At Midtown, and only apparently, courses are offered in English.

after long hesitation, I remembered that I was not very well say "deglaze" or "book" in Japanese, and on reflection, I can not even say "get the white" or "butter dish".

So it will be English.

First problem: I counted myself present with my other half, until I read the entry form " Only Girls in the fourth grade or higher are Allowed to Participate. "

Good ... So the kitchen is reserved for women here.

Not really new but I'm going to ignore my instincts feminist who rebels on the move.

But after all, are many karaoke reserved for women, do not see (that) a way of returning them to their ranges, but rather a kind of girly entertainment Supplemental.

the agreed time, so I go in my entire fierotte tabllier (and knowing that half of Tokyo can see me in this outfit), I am assigned a table and little by little, the group is formed.

And, surprise.

Given the location, I was expecting a bunch of housewives American or French (though, upon reflection, they should already know how to cook and probably something to do between 20 hours and 22 hours) but not at all.

On 6 there were 4 Japanese, an taiwainaise and me.

The reason was that the Japanese take courses in English, I only realized that later when I received 4 cards to the end of the course and pressing invitation to meet again outside ...

Basically, people go to practice at Berlitz English, others go to cooking classes: it is probably too expensive but at least you leave with a cake at the end of the session, not stupid!

better, two of these Japanese were already apparent super talented in the kitchen.

which my teammate (because the course is two). The

I thought it was better that I continue to speak in English if I did not want it cut up for me: 1
/ do not return his language
2 / also be transferred to zero egg whites. But back

to our cooks. ABC has a system of course also clear that the first pages of Foucault's Pendulum , courses that appear at least as expensive as the pendulum itself.

Just do not be daunted.

In fact, their concern being to recruit a maximum, especially in these beginnings of Midtown, so they offer very attractive campaigns.

Currently, the course of "macha chiffon cake is 500 yen (for the french who do not know what is a chiffon cake is a kind of sponge cake which I do not know the name myself tell the truth), and after what I understand, during the second test would be offered ...

piles up again so I for one session "manufacturing bread "very soon.
After
, courses cost about 4,000 yen a session as I understand, if we benefited from a" campaign "kind" fees offered "(= all the time, such as gyms?)

short, if you search for current child-super good for you debutantissimes jap make friends who speak English, the place seems perfect.

As for me I think I'll stop the ambitions my PASTRY yet, even though the matcha cake was very good, thank you.



All about cooking here on ABC.

40th Church Anniversary Congratulatory Letter

part 2

Finally, I could find time for my walk yet Midtown was once this weekend.

Not too many people (well, half an hour queuing to get a taste has Toraya nonetheless) and good and bad surprises.

I begin with the lowest. The Suntory Museum.

Jolie entry, clueless in the middle of Midtown, hardly anyone after a Saturday afternoon: it fishy!

And for good reason, for 1000 yen, it was the right one as two large exhibition halls of the Museum of Ueno (already not the Louvre at the base ...)

The stage design is basic, basic ... normal view that most of the rooms should probably be kept in the dark.

In fact, I've not even said what it presents.

At the exhibition menu "IWAI: Art of Celebration" : festive clothes, dishes, screens ... bric a brac has a (very) thin thread.

I better understand why this show did not attract the crowds: Perhaps the Japanese reviews (I did not read) were bof bof.

hope the next expo will be more convincing, even if the space itself is small. The site is

the anyway.

However, the site 21_21 Design Sight Tadao Ando was more blind and more interesting.

architecture already, she likes it or not, leaves no stone.

The theme of the exhibition opening was different realizations of the Master (who was there in person, smiling, signing autographs) and the work which we only see the result then it implies months of thoughts and efforts of hundreds of field workers.

In itself, the theme was so attractive (as long as we appreciate the work of Tadao Ando), but after, I think it should be a little more architect than I am to grasp the complexity of models and polystyrene of different sketches.

And too many people kill the world, I have not had the courage to dwell on all the pieces or to queue for the representation of William Forsythe in the next room.

But I realized that this feedback turns increasingly to negative while just seeing Ando sensei in flesh and bones has already justified my opinion this visit.

short, a site where I will be back and I advise you to look.

Shiespa night

Some time ago I told you about the spa Shiespa , I highly recommend it.

Well I found even better Shiespa night.

You see, the problem is that the weekend's relaxation rooms tend to be crowded (plan to register for turn two hours in advance), you can not book a massage for the quarter hour after etc ...

While after 23 hours, over this concern.

The crazy thing is that it still runs all night, so no fear of falling into a totally desert atmosphere "they had forgotten me inside?".

Moreover, we wondered who really were the girls (except us) who went to the spa on a Monday night between 11 pm and 4 am. But there are a.

Overall, if you arrive after 11 hours, everything still works except the restaurant and sky bar (that's bad).
Note also that the foot massages are no longer only the floor care, massages (complete so much more expensive). I also believe that there is a supplement if you can square after midnight.

But frankly, for lazing in rotenburos girlfriends as if it was private baths, it's worth it.

Ditto for relaxation rooms on a hot stone: the less hardcore is ideal for a girly chatter non stop all intimacy (even if there are people, there is always a quiet room).

And less likely to get face to face with a hair of your colleagues also work (already tested for you, not top Pleasant).

additional benefits: we go to bed directly, no need to now disguised etc..
A shower and bed.

only advice: Do not get up the next day as I was 7 ½ hours because it is perfect to sleep standing up all day.


NB Shiespa is open all night until 7 am (AC resumed in 11 hours).

Apparently, some (all?) Items will be offered for sale at the same time.

dream is the time to offer a polo with a crocodile hunt in our virtual friends!

short, if you're in the area at that time, the same is one more opportunity to satisfy your need for small (or large) fashionesques gadgets.

Tokyo Midtown in Tokyo part 1

Friday night I finally passed see Midtown.

No excuse for not having been there earlier, but here the delay finally catching up.

And contrary to what one can read both sides of the net, I really like the concept.

Deja, I find the architecture more successful than that of Omotesando Hills (not very hard it says ...). Even if the tower lacks a bit of light, the materials provide a friendly atmosphere and we do not feel totally claustrophobic.

I have not had time to explore more than 3 floors but I must say I am quite impressed:

First, the store Restir with its exhibition of Chanel's 2.55 the entrance is worth the detour.

The staging is certainly a bit pompous and vain, but I must admit that the door and the atmosphere very "private club" doing their small effect.

And above all, there's the floor.

In a decor Velvet (with corridors and private rooms), a relevant choice of clothes, books, underwear etc. rogues.

Halfway between Loveless and Sonia Rikyel.

Inside, I was most marked in the basement as the most luxurious shops on upper floors (Lucien Pellat-Finet, chloe, Via Bus Stop ...): good, the Muji as expected only up to half its promises (not super big and not offering much that we can not find at major chain stores), but a new Sadaharu Aoki Tokyo is always a pleasant surprise, as is the Dean and Deluca (I have a weakness for this shop, I admit) or even a simple open Precce 24/24 (which will no longer have any excuses not to bring the races has home?).

Suddenly, I even took the opportunity to register a pastry lesson in passing, report next Tuesday, no doubt!

Second good news, the shops close at 21 hours (maybe only at the beginning?) So going there in the evening, we avoid the crowds, if any.

Moreover, they really piled on the host, still higher than Japanese standards already very high.

I feel that I will soon return, even if only for the Suntory Museum, not yet discovered or to other areas of design I have not had time to see.

transportation card for visitors to Tokyo

One of the questions that visitors on a spree in Tokyo ask me the most is "Ya there a travel card valid for one day semaine/10 etc.?"

The answer is clear: no.

However, after the arrival of PASMO, the Japan Rail have made a real effort and henceforth, the tourist can buy Tokyo SUICA & shall not exercise his card at the airport.

The principle: 3.500 yen (slightly more than the price of a one-way Narita Express), one receives a card Suica rechargeable 2000 yen (500 deposit), used throughout the network train / subway / bus from March 18 AND a one-way (in Narita Express so) for the capital.

is not happiness that?

Then of course, the question we ask everyone (= I wonder) is: in this case, is that residents can also purchase each time they return to Tokyo?

The site specifies only that the card is valid for holders of non-Japanese passport so the doubt.
I imagine that JR is nonetheless smart enough to have also restricted to holders of a reentry permit.

has anyone tried?

Nike + iPod Kit The secret of

Good good I know, it's been months that I had to try it this famous Nike kit with my girlfriends french bloggers had benefits in the first before.

But with the return of winter, running has given way to yoga + swimming pool and I do too am bothered.

Today' spring is back one day 10 but I have no doubt he will eventually settle as I resumed training with my new friend.

For those that would not know (there?) The beast is in two parts: a receiver that Plugge on an Ipod Nano on one side (keeping to the cover, super convenient), and a transmitter (chip) which is supposed to get in Nike shoes with a hole provided for that purpose, but works well if you just had to hang his shoes thanks to a clever clip system. So we

"begins the session," a voice informs us that all goes well, the session has started (I had not prepared a special purpose or distance for the first time) and short, it remains the goal the trick anyway.

Observation number 1: unlike what I have already heard, it does not change the rhythm of the music to fit in your (admit it would be hard anyway).

Observation number 2: we apparently can not change the playlist without "interrupting the session. Too bad I did not necessarily need to stop for two buttons fupport saw my race pace lightning.

Observation number 3: I thought the voice would continue to speak (like "you ran 1 km, yet another 18") but hey, it can be AC only when you return objectives of the meetings with nan?

Observation number 4: so it works on a treadmill, I admit that I was a little afraid it only works if you swallow really km.

At the end of the race, I stop everything thoroughly and I compare with my machine.

Both are a little close to the access time expired, so far so good. Except that

the machine gives me or my traveled 6.5 km and 300 km scorched, my Nike kit gives me 8, 7 km (ah anyway) and more than 400 calories will have to agree.

Knowing that I enter my weight in my Nano (my neighbor who borrows henceforth, I'll kill him), I pretend to believe it's my kit that's right. But the difference is huge anyway, I elucidate'll have this mystery.

EDIT: apparently I'm not the only one seeing this problem

Once back home. I was able to synchronize all this on the Nike site without incident, and once at work (I look for lunch anyway, not in the day rhooo for whom you take me) nothing: my race had disappeared.

Y still has progress to make in the ease of use, or I missed something.

Well, next week, I try to set a goal to see if it works better and I made an edit.

Japanese

I just found the secret of the Japanese.

So good, the first who told me that it's been 3 years since she knows that and everybody knows I Loved thongs strangulation Louboutin, but for those who have not "seen it all saw any known ", here is my find of the week (not early adopter who wants eh, I do my best).

For years here, I always wonder how the Japanese are doing to be so perfectly manicurees non stop.

I do not mean to shibuya girls fake nails, it's too easy.

No, I speak of my work colleagues for example, real women who take the subway, tap on their computer keyboard and go to sports after work or even a pool.

Initially, I had to endure the rantings of a man of the house that I left the polish / remover (it smells mauvaaaaaaaaaaaais), so every day it was possible. The manicure was very pro a little more, but an hour every 4-5 days, it was getting difficult to manage as well.

And I discovered the Biogel.

In France, I think the trick is called the equivalent Calgel, all good beauticians should know in 15 years I guess, but me, it had not struck.

The concept: basically, in place of varnish, you put a freeze-drying under a UV lamp (as in the photo).

The choice of colors, gradients, textures is the same, the top is shiny and it does not need hanging around 15 minutes for everything to dry after installation (head of the lady when I told him that I do not want to leave my wallet alone to avoid damaging my nails, although she laughs).

The small miracle is that this stuff lasts 3 weeks (in theory, I'll let you know). 3 weeks impeccable finish, I say yes.

The second miracle is that unlike the resin, ca does not damage the nail (no sanding as I understand, thank you Marie-Line).

In Tokyo, after a full round of institutions, all told me that with this technique they could not lengthen the nail, but I know for sure that it is technically possible (at least in France ).

Good thing since in any case, when a nail is even more beautiful if it does not two inches long and in addition, under the frost, it grows naturally continuing to breathe (well I guess).

Highlights thus:

- nails super shiny in all possible colors
- Do not fear the blows, scratches, etc. dissolving
-
takes three weeks - the nail continues to grow without breaking etc.

Weaknesses:
- after half past one for laying the gel ( for two nail colors, like French).
- must return there when it starts to become cradingue to have it removed (and then again).
- and of course, all this has a price: 13,000 yen in this case at Dashing Diva , around 10,000 elsewhere. But

nail impeccable non stop, I know!
