It takes only 5 minutes from Hanazakicho, Narita-shi, Chiba, JR Narita Station, Keisei Narita Station on foot. In single house "wave abusive Village Narita" leaving retro flavor of the Showa era, there is "elegant (elegant) Experience Japanese Culture". The concept that we advocate is a thing called "a quiet hideout experiencing blade and harmony of Japan". When one step treads into near one from both an airport and the station, passage of time becomes slow. Between such non-everyday sky, I have a Japanese customer enjoy a visit to Japan foreign tourist in the center.
In our shop, the showy reputation facing the main street is not in the gaiety so popular that there are always lines either. On the other hand, it is stillness and courteousness to be able to taste only in a complete reservations, small number of people system that there is it. Is it not time touched a living and the culture of the land slowly and carefully not a just photogenic sightseeing spot that most of tourists visiting Japan demand? It wants to be the place that can indulge in genuine Japanese culture in just several hours simply because it is the town of airport called Narita, and we continue this shop. The reservations system from two people per one set at the least to up to six is taken, and, as for sharing time and space with other customers, there are none at all. Therefore the progress of the experience put together in a pace of careful explanation in 日本語, English not to go through an interpreter and customer each one is made possible.
When it passes through the entrance of "I am elegant", at first, it is a housing part of the tree leaving a bonsai cared for carefully and a feature of the Showa that meets it. The sum kitchen knife and a tea service set to use in an experience equal an offset and a cupboard calmly, and it is determined, and, as for the exaggerated direction, it is in the space where what I work hard on to the every corner reaches though there is not it. I may have a customer coming to a kitchen knife grind experience catch the happi coat for the experience, and, in the atmosphere of the photogenic sum, a non-everyday time can be tasted. While there is it from the noise of the lively sightseeing spot next to some detached rooms, Japanese doorway called Narita Station, Narita Airport, a flow at time is felt slowly. That is air streaming down the whole building called "wave abusive Village Narita".
I am elegant, and even a set prepares for three culture experiences that rooted in a living of Japan in a form to be able to enjoy alone.
The first is the full-scale "sum kitchen knife grind experience". At first, I talk about the history of the Japanese kitchen knife. I have a swordsmith toward the origin, and the step that developed from the oldest kitchen knife left in Shoso-in as an exclusive kitchen knife in the Edo era is introduced while looking at the real thing. In the beginning of the experience, I have cut paper and a cucumber with a kitchen knife near a state before polishing it daringly, and it begins from the place having sense a difference of the sharpness bodily. After that, he/she is told carefully while the staff demonstrates the count (big coarsely so that a number is small for the finish) of the whetstone and the indication of the angle of the grind such as the height for 1-2 pieces of 45 degrees, 10 yen coins. While you actually polish it, the staff always attends you near and watches money while calling. "The collar" of the polished kitchen knife is confirmed, and it is included until a process to reverse a whetstone, and to finish and is the contents which can touch one end of the craftsmanship of Japan. After the experience, it is a big characteristic that can take two polished friendship kitchen knives home as the same Souvenirs. The pattern can be chosen from several kinds and the method (becoming the rust when you are left unattended with getting wet, the black rust being the protective films which rather protect a blade) of the care is matched and guides you.
The second is "a Matcha experience". It begins from the history when Zen priest, Eisai introduced Matcha from China into Japan in the Kamakura era, and I talk about the flow that developed to the tea ceremony culture valuing mind of "the hospitality" from there. At first, the staff makes it and demonstrates, and please make it to you more. He/she is told about the point that the Matcha for two cups of tea ladles is moved with hot water about 80 degrees quickly to draw an M-shape without putting a bamboo tea whisk at the bottom, and is made carefully. Please enjoy the made Matcha with a Japanese confectionery. You are informed of by having Matcha after having a Japanese confectionery one share earlier, balance of the taste becoming more attractive more. Finally the rare cheap candy of various parts of Japan is presented and is the time that can become the smile from a small child to the adult.
The third is "an experience for making hand-carving chopsticks". It dates back to the origin of the chopsticks itself in China more than 3,000 years ago, and it is said to Japan that I was informed it by Imoko Onono known as an envoy to the Sui Dynasty in the Asuka era. Even if the world is looked around, it pushes forward an experience to have culture letting the meal top and bottom of it conclude only with chopsticks while bringing the interesting story to be only Japan. Wood is fixed to the jig well, and, by the process reduced using a plane carefully from the top to the bottom, please confirm way of holding and a direction to sharpen for security first by all means. If it finishes being sharpened, the appearance is fixed with a file, and the finish that by plastering oil along grain of wood, served as protection and a polish is performed. The chopsticks only for oneself finished can enjoy the photography freely, too and can just take it to go. I correspond to a left-handed customer, and, as for the kitchen knife, the jig for making both blades, chopsticks becomes able to coordinate a direction, too.
These three experiences prepare as a plan put together not only as one piece of article. The wide age group can participate in "the whole experience-based plan" from 5 years old to 99 years old in the course of about 120 minutes (experience-based time 110 minutes) including all for making kitchen knife grind, Matcha, chopsticks. After having taken a friendship kitchen knife polished in about 90 minutes (experience-based time 80 minutes) home, "the kitchen knife grind + Matcha plan" is constitution to have draw breath with Matcha last. It is the course of about 90 minutes (experience-based time 80 minutes) when you can participate from a 3-year-old child as "the plan for making Matcha + chopsticks" does not use the knife. Both plans are the complete reservations systems from two people to six, and, as for the customer 18 years or younger, the number of each plan, each person rate becomes at half price. The system is such that the burden per person lightens so as to increase in number so that it is 40000 yen for 2 people if it is an experience plan, and the rate adopts a group unit price system depending on the number of people, e.g., it is said with 62,000 yen with six entirely. As for the kitchen knife grind + Matcha plan, as for the making of Matcha + chopsticks plan, it is to 24,000 yen from 16,000 yen to 40,000 yen from 28,000 yen for 2 people for 6 people for 2 people for 6 people, and the sum kitchen knife for two and which plan are accompanied by a cheap candy present for the number of people for whole experience plan and kitchen knife grind + Matcha plan that the take-out of the sum kitchen knife is included in. You can participate, and it is put together in the age structure of the family, and only a plan for making Matcha + chopsticks which do not deal with a knife can choose a plan from a 3-year-old child.
The reservation was heard until 17:00 three days ago of the experience-based start time, and the meeting time is five minutes ago of the start time. It can be utilized for light movement before and after going to Narita Airport on that day as baggage is taken free until up to three hours. There is not the Parking for exclusive use of the pickup and drop-off shop, but it is added to the good location called a 5-minute walk from the station, and the neighborhood can come over even to the car by the train as there is the pay parking lot. The business is open throughout the year and is four times a day at 9:00, 11:30, 13:30, 16:00 from 9:00 to 21:00 (the receptionist of the experience can cope if there are any hope until 20:00 at 18:00 from 9:00) at experience-based held time.
"A Matcha cafe" is prepared for the person who wants to enjoy it another cup of tea if I am hungry in an experience or. Other than iced coffee and caffe latte, it features it that a Matcha straight, the dark Matcha straight that used Matcha normal 2 times, Matcha latte, a Matcha menu such as the dark Matcha latte are satisfying. Four kinds of non-alcoholic soda of a cherry tree, a white peach, a lime, the plum can be enjoyed in coming by car and the which Sake is weak in with popularity in peace, too. The Matcha is particular about the full-scale manufacturing method to finish from the place to make a sifted thing with kneading on fire, a bamboo tea whisk with hot water of around 80 degrees carefully. The size prepares two kinds of M and L and devises it to be able to enjoy the same taste even if by setting a quantity to quantity of the ice and liquid quantity finely, come when. One one is established, and I am particular about eloquence of the fruit and balance of the just right sweetness, and the non-alcoholic soda pulls the attenuant ratio, too.
And, in time of from 18:00 to 21:00 when a reservation is not made for the experience, the figure is changed as "canned food Izakaya (Japanese-style pubs) & cheap candy bar" (カンズメ Bar). In addition to a lineup of the royal road such as a lock, plum wine and sake with hot water, Sake to be able to enjoy the flavor of the sum including tea plum wine and green tea plum wine, the あまおう plum wine is had abundantly. The menu chopped with soda and a highball, sour can spend the time of generous adult with the canned food of various parts of Japan with popularity. Of course, as for the inconvenience, there are none in coming by and car which Sake cannot drink as 16 articles of daytime drinks just provide all it in the time at night. The alcoholic beverages to customers under 20 are not given.
I have the customer who finished an experience drop in at the Souvenirs corner by all means. To the rare cheap candy, plum wine of various parts of Japan and collected canned food from each places of the whole country, a lineup to be able to meet only here is had, and it is devised to be able to enjoy the lingering sound of the experience at home. As there are many customers having drop in before going to the airport, what choose you mainly on the product which is easy to be added to a light, compact cheap candy and the baggage of the trip including the plum wine of the small bottle features it.
It is to tell a customer about mind itself of "the hospitality" put in Japanese culture not the simple "offer of the experience" that we value most. From a meeting to a seeing off, it is loaded with courteousness in one one waiting on customers up to the impression after custody of the baggage, experienced warm calling, a help of the photography and the experience and the request of the review. I receive training based on a script and the assumption catechism of the Japan and Britain parallel translation, and the staff acts as the point that the procedure of the demonstration and a customer are easy to trip on from the historic background about each for making kitchen knife grind, Matcha, chopsticks to be able to enjoy an experience to an overseas customer touching the Japanese culture for the first time in peace.
In there being "I am elegant", the good access called a 5-minute walk is big charm from JR Narita Station, Keisei Narita Station, too. It is the location that is mixed up or can drop in at going and returning of the worship to Naritasan Shinshoji Temple casually of the flight from Narita International Airport. The guest house which is available for unmanned check-in and various Accommodation including the hideaway accommodation having a cypress bath in all rooms are prepared other than Richmond Hotel Narita and APA Hotel <the Keiseinarita station square>, the hotel which is easy to be used globally such as the Comfort Hotel Narita around a station. As the choice of accommodations is abundant while being the location that is easy to come and go with the airport, it is an advantage only by "I am elegant" that can incorporate it in the schedule of the trip to Japan without unreasonableness.
The memory of the experience does not end it in temporizing. The state after the experience during the experience is sent after having had the permission of the customer in Instagram (@miyabiknife), and I ask for follow and the tag charge account. The rink to the reservation site can be traced from a profile directly, too, and I ask for the review contribution to Google map after having finished an experience. To the tourists that an actual voice of that actually experienced wants to conflict with Japanese culture next of the world best; is because is thinking that is guided.
