IKEDAYAMA houses that I thought very lovely

Lately I've been posting cafes & residences I took pictures of when I was taking a pleasant walk in IKEDAYAMA (池田山), which is called so, but not an address name and located in some area of HIGASHIGOTANDA(東五反田). Today, let me introduce lovely houses & buildings I'm seeing while out for a walk to you. 

stylish food shop/restaurant: gicca IKEDAYAMA.

quaint red brick condo facing gicca IKEDAYAMA

lovely Tudor style house

the Embassy of Palestine. I see several embassies in this residential area.

This house is also pretty and seems to be built with a discerning design. 

dreamy house surrounded with flower trees

It is the IKEDAYAMA version of enchanting "Chambord" group condos! I'm charmed every time I see one of them, at other places like Meguro(目黒) too. I will be always lost in admiration when I pass through this place. I live in a moderate different style condo within walking distance from here.

So...how did you like these houses & buildings I posted? I hope you enjoyed!

Spring is almost here, Rose

a weekend hideaway French restaurant & Ikedayama residences

On Saturday, I visited a small restaurant that is located between Takanawadai Station & Gotanda Station. It is a hidden small restaurant in the basement well shined by natural light.

Restaurant Perfume

I wanted to have some quiet time, however...however... There was a couple with a child. The baby started cracking up while I was quietly at the table. It happens... I know... Maybe I should come here on weekdays. 

Though Restaurant Perfume is a small restaurant, the taste is authentic French. I ordered simple sandwiches this time, but there are variety of dishes that satisfies your taste buds.

Soon I departed the restaurant and took a walk around Ikedayama 池田山 area; the high-end residential street.

There are adorable houses. A sight worth seeing indeed even if they are houses where people live. More of residences than houses.   

There is a birthplace of Her Majesty Empress Michiko in Ikedayama 池田山. Prior to the cherry blossoms, the plum blossoms are starting to get in bloom.

This is an amazing residence! It is not an embassy nor a museum, but a place a certain wealthy family live. 

Walked down towards the Main Street: Sakurada Street 桜田通り,  I found another plum blossoms. It's almost in full bloom!

When one year is soon about to pass since I moved to Gotanda 五反田, Ikedayama 池田山 became my favorite walking pass that restores a peaceful, happy state of mind. 

See you, Rose

COFFEE & BREAD IKEDAYAMA - a quiet cosy cafe in the high-end residential area

 IKEDAYAMA 池田山 is the leading luxury redidensial area in HIGASHIGOTANDA 東五反田. I found an attractive walking route from my condo quite recently. IKEDAYAMA has dignity, and like, also has warmth that welcomes you.

A bright, wood-paneled surroundings inside. It must be popular with the locals. How nice people can lay back at such a clear cafe in this residential area, feeling a comfortable air through the window. Luckily, I could take a seat by the window.

One of the bread I chose was home-made tuna English muffin sandwiches. This is the most impressive muffin I've ever had! The texture is fluffy and moist. The English muffin tastes good when plain as well.

Sorry for the half eaten! I'm still working on it.. Milk, and low-fat milk are available here. I went to the counter to pour milk, and add a little low-fat milk, too. Time went by leisurely..gently... I really felt I need this kind of time in my life.

When it comes to coffee, I'm trying to drink organic one since I knew coffee's pesticides are enormous unless it's organic. This place has in-house roasted coffee, but I'm afraid to say it's not organic, although it must be good quality one, I suppose. They provide MABROC for tea. It must also be good quality even if it's not said organic.

The sandwich bread contains 90% water. It is a signature of this cafe. Bread and pastry are freshly baked here as well as in-house roasted coffee. The sandwiches made with quality white bread are amazing! The bread is also moist and tasty even if as is.

A pleasant cozy place near GOTANDA 五反田 Station that provides nice atmosphere and delicious bread with friendly staff. I know I should eat less gluten, however, COFFEE & BREAD IKEDAYAMA seems to have become a place I'd like to go to for a change of pace.

Snow-white NIVEA Cream is excellently all-purpose.

NIVEA blue can is familia to everyone. It is affordable, but superior to other costly cream in quality. 

Nivea brand was founded locally in Hamburg, Germany in 1911 and belongs to the German group Beiersdorf.

Sometimes, I use singular oil itself, but I feel NIVEA gives skin softness because of its glycerin as a moisturizing ingredient in addition to jojoba oil, squalane oil. NIVEA seems to be overall excellent. 

Generally, cream requires a surfactant. One of the great things of NIVEA is －

it doesn't contain a surfactant. How great it is!

① lanolin alcohol

② aluminum distearate, magnesium stearate

By mixing ① and ②, oil and water get to mix. This technique is called "oiserit".

It is amazing, this prescription hasn't changed from 110 years ago! 

Snow-white NIVEA Cream... Origin of the name comes from Latin 'nix' (snow) and 'nivis' (snowy). 

The secret of the pure white is crystalline aluminum distearate and magnesium stearate. So our akin get slightly whitish when applied to. It must be a good idea to apply NIVEA Cream to a face when not exposed to sunlight since it can be a touch of make-up.

And hidden know-how is, NIVEA is made non-sticky in coordination with magnesium sulfate.

A great product remains no matter how many years has pass. My face, hands, nails, body, and even hair are all protected by it. Snow-white NIVEA Cream is one of my favorite items.

I feel happy even if I am alone on this day because I have a dream.

 💚Let me share with you the cutest bouquet sold in front of the flower shop in Ginza, Japan.

Hoping each of you have a great time on this sweet day.  Happy Valentine's Day💕  Rose 

Vaccine toxicity varies by batch, reported by Dr.Jane Ruby

Regarding coronavirus booster shot : 3rd vaccination, I say "No."

Talking about Omicron, it is not fatal. I wouldn't get clinical trial vaccine for it. Since the 1st & 2nd vaccination started, number of deaths are increasing. Myocarditis is rapidly increasing. The death rate of people who died because of vaccination is higher than the death rate of people who caught coronavirus. The present vaccine is made for Wuhan and it doesn't work for Omicron.

In Japan, 80.0% got one, 78.8% got two, 4.8% got three and it’s on going. 

I will talk about present Covid-19 vaccine. The Prime Minister in Japan was irritated because the 3rd vaccination was not progressing. Recently, he declared that if you get the 3rd shot, you won’t get infected with coronavirus. But just after that, 3rd-shot people got infected with Omicron. I don’t feel that he was irritated because he wanted to protect people’s lives, but there was something in the background. Why are they so enthusiastic to increase positive persons? PCR test kits are even unreliable, handed over for free in the town. Due to the lack of PCR test kits, Government decided volunteer doctors can deem people 'positive' without PCR test and they pay the doctors JPY30,000 per each person who was deemed positive. Yesterday, I heard the news that a call center of Ministry answered the present clinical trial vaccine is not for eliminating corona, but taking data. That makes sense. This is the experiment to test, like, which lot number makes death, which lot number makes cancer after few years later. The poison remains in the body and what will happen in the future is unknown.

 

I hear the ambulance siren all day long since this vaccination started. People fall down in the house, young people walking with crutches are seen recently, young girls whose blood doesn’t stop after the shot, increasing sudden cardiac death etc. 

The news and media are stoking fear, just announcing increasing number of infected people. However, they don’t announce death or sequela caused by vaccination. It’s weird that there aren’t the dead nor sequelae among politicians. 

Only a few doctors stood up. They warm about the danger of the experimenting vaccine and ask us to save the children who don’t have to get the Wuhan vaccine for Omicron: throat cold. Also, one corageous man appeared to change public opinion. He started announcing the "truth" about coronavirus TV never tells in responsible newspapers. It’s still difficult to put the article on national newspapers, but his center is starting with several local newspapers. A young boy who read the paper wrote a letter, “Why you hadn’t posted this before my young brother got the 3rd? He is suffering from the after-effects!”. I think the Government is encouraging us to get booster shots because they want to consume inventory disposal of pharmaceutical companies. The Government is OK with decreasing population by this experiment. For me, a few real doctors and this brave man who value each one’s life are heroes. They are Christ.

Generally, I might seem a strange person who don’t get any vaccinations likewise Covid-19 vaccination, not wanting poison in my body. The above is my thoughts about using old Wuhan experimental vaccination to present Omicron that is equivalent to throat cold. Each life is valuable. Japanese people’s main schedule for the 3rd is in March or later when the peak is over. We shouldn’t take the 3rd with the possibility of death to be tested by the Government.

Be safe... Rose
